Chapter 40 Salvation

Claire is shocked and furious. “You are so despicable!”

“Am I despicable?” The fat man sneers, and then suddenly begins to glance up and down at Claire,
with his lascivious eyes fixed on her.

Claire feels his lascivious eyes and shudders. She knows that he is not a good man, but not that he is
so dirty.

She glares at the man fiercely. Claire is upset. She knows that Leo would not save her, but now, what
should she do?

Escape? !

Claire starts to look around and think about the plan.

But the man seems to understand what Claire is thinking, so he laughs and says, “Don’t think about
running away. There are my men all around here. Don’t be paranoid!”

Claire is overwhelmed.

The fat man stares at Claire and says sarcastically, “But I feel sorry for you. As the wife of Leo, don’t
you feel sad that Leo doesn’t come to save you?”

His tone is very schadenfreude, after all, this kind of relationship of a couple is rare.

Claire, though aware of the thoughts of Leo, listens to his words and feels still a little sad.

Frowning, Claire doesn’t answer and sits down in her chair.

But, after a while, Claire suddenly feels something wrong, looks up, and suddenly sees the man looking
at her with a very creepy look.



“You...” Claire feels a little nervous.

The fat man says, “Well, Claire, I do feel sorry for you, but when I look at you so closely, I find that you
are really in good shape. You have a sexy body...”

He begins to walk up and looks at Claire Bennett’s shapely figure. He swallows and says, “Well, if you
please me, you won’t need to suffer this kind of torture, and I won’t kill you.”

“You...you’re shameless!!!” Claire is furious, her face turns red and she growls, “No way! I’m not going
to do such dirty things with you! No way!”

“I don’t want to treat you like that, but like you said, Leo Howard isn’t going to save you. What do you
think why I’m tying you up for? I deserve something from you!”

He can’t wait any more. Then he grabs her chest with one hand and tearing at her dress with the other.

Claire Bennett is so shocked that she screams and fights back.

Just then, the iron gate of the old factory is kicked open from the outside.

The fat man suddenly gets angry, scolds “If anyone bothers me, believe it or not, I’ll kill you all!”

And then he looks back and he sees -- Leo Howard!

The fat man immediately gets up, smiles and says, “It’s Leo Howard. I know you’d be here. Or what
would I do with such a beautiful lady?”

As he says this, Leo chuckles and says sarcastically, “It looks like I’m still early to be here before you’re
done.”

Claire is nervous and relieved when she sees Leo Howard. But she just doesn’t expect, the words he
said, is so cruel.



Moreover, when he has finished speaking, he turns away as if to leave.

Claire grits her teeth as she refuses to bow to him and says, “Leo Howard! How can you be so cruel!
Watching me get bullied?”

Leo Howard, on the other hand, acts as if he hasn’t heard anything.

Claire couldn’t resist, so she softens her voice and whispers, “Leo Howard, please save me. I am
begging you to save me...”

As soon as Claire finishes her words, Leo Howard turns around quickly and curls his lips with
satisfaction. What he was waiting for is her words like that.

Claire Bennett is relieved to see him turn around.

Then, before she could respond, she sees the fat man fall down in front of her.

Claire suddenly raises her head and sees the pistol Leo is holding in his hand. She is shocked. This
man, cold-blooded, looks terrible.

Leo Howard turns to Claire, ignoring her fears. “Beg me earlier next time. Or you will suffer a great
loss.”

With that, Leo Howard walks up to Claire, takes off his coat and put it on her body. Then he picks her
up and turns to leave.

At this moment, for some reason, Claire suddenly finds Leo Howard’s arms very warm and reassuring.

When they walk out the door, Claire Bennett finds the men lying on the floor, all of whom has been shot
in exactly the same way as Leo Howard.



Claire, who has never seen such a scene before, is nauseated by the strong smell of blood.

Claire closes her eyes and starts to wonder when she hears someone reporting something to Leo
Howard.

So a curious Claire opens her eyes and peers out of Leo Howard’s arms to see what is going on.

But suddenly she sees two rows of men in black suits standing in front of her. They are all very serious
and respectful to Leo.

The head of the black men says, “Boss, all the people here have been all annihilate, all the places have
been investigated, did not find anyone alive!”

“Well, just clean it up.” Leo says and gets into the car with Claire in his arms.

As the driver drives, Leo and Claire sits in the back seat, thinking of the scene just now, Claire
involuntarily peeks at Leo Howard.

Leo Howard wonders, “Why are you looking at me like that?”

Biting her lip, Claire Bennett awkwardly asks, “Leo Howard, who are you?”
