Chapter 284 The trap he sets

Claire is almost out of breath. She looks at Leo angrily. She didn’t expect that she just escaped once,
but Leo reveals her nature.

Leo is cruel and inhuman.

Fortunately, Claire is awake and not cheated by Leo’s flattery. She knows Leo’s approach. She doesn’t
believe that he will suddenly get better even if he lost his memory.

Claire calms down and straightens up. She says firmly, “Leo, I won’t let you succeed. Absolutely not!”

“That’s the best.” Leo is indifferent. He sits back on the sofa and pours himself another glass of wine.

Claire is annoyed by Leo’s apathy. She takes a deep breath and convinces herself in her heart and
calms herself down.

Claire calms down and sits opposite. She says solemnly, “Leo, I know your means. Tell me what you
want. I’ll give it to you as long as you allow me to leave.”

Leo glances at her and says arrogantly, “as far as I know, you are begging me now. Is that how you beg
me?”

“I...” Claire is speechless. She stares at Leo for a moment and whispers, “President Howard, please let
me go. I’ll give you whatever you want!”

However, despite Claire’s begging, Leo doesn’t accept it. He bursts out laughing.

Leo says leisurely, “do you want to leave? Do you forget why you are here?”

When Leo finishes, Claire suddenly remembers that she is here to persuade Leo to cooperate with her
company. It’s Leo’s fault. She asked him many times just now but he changed the subject. She forgot



why she came here.

Claire looks at Leo seriously and asks, “why did you call me here today? As far as I know, the project
leader of your company originally agreed to the design work of our company. Why did you suddenly
change your mind?”

“And,” Claire stares at Leo and asks, “how do you know I work in that company?”

“It’s a secret...” Leo says mysteriously. The next second he returns to normal and says coldly, “the
reason I asked you to come here is very simple. I want to talk to you about personal matters! As for the
design you said, I’m not interested at all!”

“Don’t you want to know what I want? I call you here in the hope that you will stay with me. If you
promise not to leave me, I will let your company’s cooperation project pass, otherwise...”

With that, Leo shows a proud expression.

Claire is cold at Leo’s words. She looks at Leo coldly and says angrily, “are you threatening me?”

“Yes, I’m threatening you.” Leo is outspoken.

“...”

Claire stares at Leo and is speechless. Leo is really threatening her, so what? Leo has the ability to
threaten, but she has nothing. Now she comes here to beg Leo to let her company’s cooperation
project pass.

From the beginning, Leo dug a trap for Claire to jump.

He tricked Claire to his company and doesn’t let her go. Whether she agrees to Leo’s terms or not, she
can’t leave here.



He said first that he will not allow Claire to leave him. Now he’s threatening her directly with that
collaboration. His only purpose is to let Claire stay!

Leo is really treacherous.

Although Claire doesn’t know how Leo knows she works for that design company, now she has to
convince Leo. She’s going to take Leo a step back while protecting herself.

So what should Claire do?

Claire is in a dilemma. She looks at the indifferent Leo and tentatively says, “Leo, can you change your
request?”

“No way!” Leo interrupts Claire. He says roughly, “you have only two choices. Stay with me and I’ll pass
the cooperation project for your company. You leave immediately, but we will not use your company’s
works, and we will completely cut off contact with your company.”

He threatens Claire with her soft heart!

Leo knows that Claire will not let the work she has designed for a long time fail because of herself. Leo
knows Claire will be reluctant. Claire is different from Leo. She is a person who doesn’t hurt others!

But the offer is too tempting. As long as Claire nods, their efforts will not be in vain. But he threatens
her with the last thing she wants to do!

Claire spends a lot of energy escaping Leo. Now she has a chance. She doesn’t want to listen to Leo’s
arrangement, which makes her feel very disrespectful!

Claire seems to be in a dilemma. Seeing Claire’s pain, Leo’s anger these days has completely
dissipates. He finally gets his revenge.



Claire’s IQ can’t beat him!

Leo suddenly smiles. For the first time in nearly half a month, Leo smiles happily. He says casually, “it
doesn’t matter. I’m not in a hurry for your answer. You can think about it before you tell me the answer.”

She doesn’t have much time to think about it! Before Claire left, she assured her boss that she would
give him an answer before she left work. It’s almost time to get off work. If her boss doesn’t hear from
her...

Claire can’t imagine.

Claire is worried, but Leo is not going to spend any more time with her. He puts down his glass and
stands up to leave.

“Wait a minute!” Just as Leo is about to leave, Claire stops him.

She makes up her mind!
