Chapter 239 How much do you charge for a night?

After they say goodbye, Kate looks at Claire’s back. Just now she looked at Claire’s face and felt like
she had met someone who looked like Claire.

But Kate thinks about it. She has never met a woman or a man of Claire’s age. Kate can’t figure it out
so she stops thinking.

Claire arrives at the company more than an hour later than usual. Fortunately, she told Leo in advance,
so Leo doesn’t respond when he sees her.

During the day, there are a lot of people in the company, so Leo doesn’t do anything intimate with
Claire. He has been working in the office.

When Claire goes in to make coffee for him, she sees him working hard. She can’t help thinking. In
fact, regardless of his private life, Leo is very responsible for his work. He is not with some dirty
women.

Nothing happens on this day. In the evening, Claire comes home. As soon as she sits down, the
doorbell rings.

Claire goes to open the door in confusion. Why is her doorbell always ringing recently? She doesn’t
have many friends. Who’s here?

Claire opens the door and sees Leo.

Claire sighs helplessly and says weakly, “president, what are you doing here?”

Doesn’t he have his own house? Why does he come to her house often?

“Can’t I come here?” Leo walks into the house.



He wants to go back to his villa, but he doesn’t want to go back when he thinks of facing the empty and
cold house.

He misses Claire’s little house and the taste of her food. By the time he gets back to his senses, he has
driven to Claire’s apartment. Leo smiles helplessly and has to go upstairs.

But Claire doesn’t welcome him. Leo touches Claire’s head and says naturally, “I’m hungry. Did you
cook?”

“No,” Claire pushes Leo’s hand away and complains, “president, do you think my home is a hotel? I
have to charge!”

“Oh?” Hearing this, Leo raises his eyebrows. He looks at Claire thoughtfully and jokingly says, “how
much do you charge for a night?”

Claire blushes at once. She pushes Leo and says angrily, “I don’t mean that! I’m asking you not to
come here again. It’s not convenient for me.”

“Why is it inconvenient? You are at home alone. I’m at home alone, too. It’s good that we live together.”
Leo says casually. He strides to the sofa and takes off her coat.

Leo is talking nonsense.

Claire follows Leo and stares at him discontentedly, “please don’t take it for granted. I have a child and
you have a fiancee. It is immoral of us to do so!”

Hearing Claire, Leo stops. He turns and looks at Claire seriously and asks, “you mean I can be with
you if I don’t have a fiancee? Don’t worry. Give me some time. I will break my engagement with Tracy
and live with you, including your son.”

When does she say that!



Claire glares at Leo angrily and says, “I don’t mean that. I already have a son. I’m not fit to be with you
at all. Don’t you mind your woman and another man’s son living with you?”

Hearing this, Leo is stunned. Then he smiles and says casually, “it doesn’t matter. Since I like you, I like
everything about you. I don’t care what happened to you in the past and why you were separated from
your child’s father. I just want you to be with me.”

With Leo finishes, Claire’s heart pauses. She almost thinks her heart will stop beating.

Leo doesn’t care if she had sex with another man or if she and his son live with him. Six years ago, Leo
was not so tolerant at all!

When he knew six years ago that he was not the father of the child, he forced her to have an abortion.
Claire shivers and retorts, “even if you don’t care, my son will care. How could he call a man who has
no blood relationship with him a father?”

Although Claire makes it up, she doesn’t want to admit that Leo doesn’t care about these things, so she
can’t help but say no to Leo.

Leo has changed a lot. Although Claire knows it might be fake, she can’t help but feel shocked.

The better Leo treats her, the more Claire wants to escape. She doesn’t want to admit it and doesn’t
dare to face it.

Claire’s words stun Leo. He says in shock, “Claire...”

Maybe Claire is stimulated. She feels it is time to make it clear to Leo.

Claire straightens up and looks into Leo’s eyes. She says seriously, “Leo, to be honest, I used to live in
France. My son was naughty and went back to America with my friends. This time I went back to



America to find my son. After I find him, I will return to France. I don’t want to stay in America.”

“Why?” Leo frowns and is shocked.

“No reason.” Claire is relaxed when she finishes. She continues solemnly, “I just like life abroad, but
you can only develop in America, so we can’t be together at all. Please don’t treat me so well in the
future. Please forget our relationship. It’s good for you and me.”

Then Claire bites her lower lip. Her mood is complicated. Although she wants to say that to Leo for a
long time, when she sees Leo’s depression, she can’t bear it.

She’s too weak and can’t bear to see others hurt by herself.
