Chapter 193 I want to live with you forever

Unfortunately, though Claire is grateful for what Juan has done, she can’t fall in love with him. She can’t
like anyone. Bryce and Juan love her and their personalities are totally different, but Claire can’t like
them.

They don’t have love so they can’t be together. She doesn’t like them. She can’t drag them down.

But Juan is so good to them that Claire can’t pay him back. So when Juan says that, Claire is silent.

She can not bear to hurt a benefactor who has taken care of them for six years. Without Juan, she
couldn’t have left America and lived in France.

Claire can’t hurt Juan. She can’t even be as cruel to him as she is to Bryce.

Claire’s silence is rejection. Juan holds her quietly for a while and reluctantly lets her go.

They don’t speak, so the atmosphere is a bit awkward for a moment.

Claire doesn’t know what to say. She doesn’t even figure out how to deal with Juan. Juan is upset and
doesn't want to talk anymore.

He is hurt by Claire!

They don’t talk. This is their first quarrel. In the evening, Claire makes Juan’s favorite dish by herself.

But Juan is cold and almost heartbroken by Claire.

While sleeping, Claire asks Juan if he sleeps in a hotel or in her house. Juan says at the moment, “I’ll
go home. I’ll leave when you’re asleep.”

He has a house in America.



She is silly for a while, but it is good that Juan speaks. Claire turns back to her room and goes to bed.

Claire tosses and turns and can’t sleep. If she has something on her mind, she can not be able to
sleep.

Claire lies in bed for an hour. She is thinking what Juan is doing. Didn’t he say not to leave until she
falls asleep? When will he leave? Has he left yet?

As she is thinking, the door of the room suddenly opens. Claire is so scared that she closes her eyes
and pretends to sleep.

Juan walks gently to Claire’s bedside and looks at her with her eyes closed. He lies at ease beside her
and reaches out to hold her.

Claire is shocked by Juan’s movements, but she feels that Juan just holds her quietly and does nothing
else. She relaxes and wonders what Juan wants to do.

Juan holds Claire gently. He looks at Claire’s long lashes and quiet face. He feels even more
heartbroken.

The woman he takes care of for six years finally belongs to someone else. At the thought of it, Juan
feels reluctant.

His voice is low and magnetic. Now it’s hoarse because of his grief. He whispers, “I thought you had
treated me as a family for six years, but I didn’t expect that you still came back to Leo...”

“Claire, what do you want me to do?”

“Tell me what I should do.”

“...” Claire closes her eyes tightly and does not dare to move or answer.



Claire feels sorry for Juan, because he does so much for her.

Juan doesn’t get a response and sighs. Claire feels heartache.

But it seems like it’s what Juan wants. Claire’s silence means she’s asleep, so he can say what he’s
holding in his heart.

Juan goes on, “Claire, you know what? Six years ago, I had a chance to beat Leo and let him down
and lose his fortune. I can make him disappear from business and underworld...”

“But you know what? I gave up such a good chance for you. I want to be with you and create a happy
family with you. I want to be with you forever. However, you don’t know all this. You don’t know that I’ve
let go of someone I hate so many years for you. I gave up my plan and my revenge on Leo. I have
violated my principles...”

“You have no idea. How can you know? You don’t know what I did, what I gave up and that I love you
deeply...”

“I was very angry, disappointed and unwilling to learn that you returned to the United States. You went
back home without consulting me. Do you know how sad and angry I was? I’ve tried so much and done
so much, but you still want to come back to Leo! What am I then?”

“Claire! I have no place in your heart!”

Juan is getting more and more emotional and angry. Claire can’t bear it for a while. She almost wants
to hold Juan back and say sorry in his arms again and again.

She knows that Juan hates Leo for a long time, but she doesn’t know that Juan hates Leo so much and
even plans for revenge for a long time.



She doesn’t know that Juan has paid so much for her in the corner she doesn’t know.

But she doesn’t say sorry. Even if she does wake up to comfort Juan, so what? It will only make him
more sad and make them more embarrassed.

It’s good for him to say it. At least he doesn’t have to hold it in his heart anymore.

Claire prays silently in her heart, leaving Juan to hold her still.

When Claire thinks he has something else to say, Juan suddenly stops. He hugs her for a long time
and then he bows his head and kisses her on the forehead and gets up and leaves the room.

“...”

It isn’t until she hears the door close that Claire opens her eyes and looks guiltily at the door.

Juan... Sorry...

Juan, who leaves the apartment, sees several people in black downstairs. Behind them is a long black
Lincoln. Everyone’s looking at Juan.

Seeing him coming down the stairs, someone immediately follows him and asks respectfully, “boss,
what’s the situation now? What about Leo?”

As Juan walks toward the car, he says coldly, “now that I’m back, the plan has to start again. Everyone
needs to be on call. I could beat Leo six years ago, and I can do it now, but don’t do anything for the
time being. I have more important things to do!”
