Chapter 196 Leo suspects her

“You!”

Claire says angrily, but she doesn’t know how to refute Leo.

Leo is right. After Tracy’s recommendation, she was hired directly. She hasn’t read the employee
handbook at all and doesn’t know there is such a rule.

This time she is miserable!

Claire is helpless and angry, but she can only pick up the resignation letter and turn around to leave.

“Wait a minute.”

As Claire walks halfway, Leo says slowly. Hearing his voice, Claire turns angrily and says, “what?”

Leo is very happy to see Claire’s angry face, but he solemnly orders, “be ready after work. Tomorrow
we are going to City B on business!”

Leo reminds Claire of their business trip!

But to prevent the last thing from happening again, Claire says unhappily, “if you stand me up this time
and don’t call me in advance, I won’t go on business again!”

Leo nods.

Claire turns around and goes out. The day passes. Claire comes home from work at night. She simply
packs up and lies in bed thinking.

There seems to be traces of Juan lying on the bed. He hasn’t called her since he left last night and
hasn’t contacted her.



Claire can’t help but wonder if she hurts him so much that he doesn’t want to contact her anymore.

They are all back home and they should celebrate. They can eat together. Why do they become what
they are now?

Claire turns over and is angry. It’s all emotional fault! If only there are not so much love in the world!

Thinking of this, Claire thinks of Leo’s deep love for Tracy. She feels a little depressed and reluctant.

Not everyone in the world can find a happy love. They have to love each other.

Claire thinks vaguely and falls asleep. When the alarm clock rings the next day, she stands in front of
the mirror and is upset. In the end, she dresses up normally.

Now that Leo has discovered her real identity, she doesn’t have to go on pretending. What’s more, she
finds it troublesome to make herself ugly every day.

Leo is more reliable than last time. He comes to Claire’s apartment and picks her up. When Leo sees
Claire dresses normally, he can’t help but chuckle.

She is wearing a white T-shirt and slim jeans. Her hair is tied up at will. Although she is not as amazing
as she was when she went out, Leo is very satisfied with her appearance.

Sure enough, she looks much more agreeable and youthful.

Claire sees the smile on his face and can’t help but dislike it. She puts her luggage in the trunk
unhappily. She says directly after getting on the car, “you are not a gentleman. You don’t help a girl with
her suitcase. You’re terrible. Oh, you’re not a gentleman at all. You’re a jerk.” You’ve always been like
this!

Jerk?



Leo chuckles. Is that what she thinks of him?

He can not help sneering, “you are usually careless. I think you are strong. Even if you can’t take it, you
can tell me. I can help you.”

Leo wants her to ask him. Claire is furious. “Drive now. It’s not good to be late.”

“Don’t worry,” Leo say casually, “the plane leaves at eleven. We can go for breakfast. What would you
like to eat?”

Eleven o’clock?

Claire is angry. She stares at Leo and says angrily, “since it’s eleven o’clock, why did you ask me to get
up so early?”

“I want to have breakfast with you.” Leo says casually, “I’ve never had breakfast with you. It’s a chance
today.”

Claire doesn’t believe him and says scornfully, “I’m not ugly today, so you say that!”

“Claire…” Leo suddenly calls Claire’s name. He gives her a meaningful glance and smiles, “I didn’t find
you so narcissistic before. Since you are so narcissistic, why did you dress up so ugly?”

“I’m not narcissistic!” Claire retorts without even thinking. She is not narcissistic. She just cares that Leo
only likes her appearance. She stares at Leo seriously and challenges him, “Dare you say you don’t
like me dressed like this? You still like beautiful women.”

Claire’s words are obvious enough. However, as a man, Leo doesn’t notice Claire’s complaint at all.

Leo says calmly as he drives, “you are right. I do like you to dress like this, but if you really want to be
ugly, you can. Anyway, I didn’t dislike you for being so ugly before. You can dress as you like.”



Leo’s words make Claire’s heart beat faster. Does he mean that he doesn’t mind her appearance?

Claire suddenly remembers that when she was dressed as an ugly woman before, Leo flirted with her
and kissed her. Is what he said true? Doesn’t he mind if she’s dressed up properly?

She thinks about what Leo just said and thinks that is what he means. Claire’s misunderstanding
disappears. She can’t help blushing. She turns her head and doesn’t dare to let Leo notice her
changes.

She cares that Leo cares about her appearance. It has nothing to do with her, but she is not happy.
Now she’s in a good mood!

Claire doesn’t respond, so Leo can’t help but raise her eyebrows and ask, “aren’t you really going to tell
me why you dressed so ugly on purpose? Or are you close to me for another purpose? Or do you want
something?”

Other purpose? Claire freezes. She takes a look at Leo and finds him staring at her suspiciously.

Is he doubting her?
