Chapter 299 Back to Leo?

“... Yes!” The two bodyguards tremble and realize that they do something wrong. They quickly untie
Claire and take out the cloth from her mouth. After that, they step back and wait for Leo’s order.

Juan walks up to Claire and reaches out and takes her hand. He looks at the wrist with obvious marks
and says softly, “does it hurt?”

Claire’s mouth is closed. She shakes her head and says nothing.

Seeing this, Juan gets angry. He yells at the two bodyguards behind Claire, “get out!”

“Yes! Boss!” The two bodyguards turn quickly and walk out. Soon there are only Claire and Juan left in
the living room.

After all the people leave, Juan gently leads Claire to the sofa and sits down. He looks at Claire and
says softly, “I’m sorry to bring you back in this way. They are a group of rude people. They don’t
understand what I mean. Don’t take it seriously.”

At this moment, Claire knows what happened. It turns out that Juan ordered people to look for her in
order to bring her back. He didn’t expect them to be rude and Claire thinks she is kidnapped.

Claire takes a deep breath and shakes her head. She smiles and says, “I’m fine. I don’t mind.”

If only Juan could bring her back when she was forcibly imprisoned by Leo, but now Leo is undergoing
surgery in the hospital. If she comes back at this time, it doesn’t seem very good. Anyway, she has to
make sure Leo is safe and then she can come back!

Juan smiles at Claire’s words. He pats her hand and says, “it’s great that you don’t mind. Are you
hungry? Would you like to have a snack? Or would you like to take a bath first? It’s too late. I’ve sent
Conan to bed.”



“I’m not hungry...” Claire shakes her head again. She pulls her hand out of Juan’s and absently says,
“Juan, I want to go back to the hospital to see Leo. He was ill today and went to the hospital for
surgery. I’m worried about his safety...”

Hearing Claire mention Leo’s name, Juan’s face changes a little. He says in a slightly unhappy tone,
“why do you care so much about him?”

“I...” Claire is speechless. He’s right, but...

“Leo went to the hospital because of me. I can’t ignore him. I will feel guilty.”

When Claire finishes, Juan’s face relaxes. He says casually, “it’s OK. You don’t have to go to the
hospital anymore. What’s more, you’ve been in the hospital all day. Now Leo has no news. You’d better
wait for the news at home. Don’t worry. I’ll let you know as soon as there’s something.”

Hearing this, Claire nods helplessly and says, “OK.”

Claire stops talking about Leo. Juan smiles. Looking at Claire’s slightly haggard face, he can’t help
asking with concern, “we haven’t seen each other for a day, but you look haggard. You must not have
had a good meal. I’ve ordered the kitchen to have a midnight snack. Let’s go. Eat with me.”

With that, Juan takes Claire and goes to the kitchen.

Claire is really hungry and doesn’t resist. The bread she bought just now fell off because she was
forcibly dragged into the car. Now she’s hungry.

After supper, Claire goes back to the room to take a bath, and when she gets back to bed, she sees
Conan sleeping soundly.

As soon as Claire lies down, she hears Conan murmuring sleepily, “Mommy...”



Hearing this voice, Claire’s tension and worry ease. She can’t help smiling and reaches out and covers
Conan. Then she turns sideways and lies down.

However, as soon as Claire closes her eyes, she will think of Leo’s face full of pain. To tell you the truth,
he is usually powerful but suddenly one day he is in pain in front of you. No one can accept such a
change.

Claire keeps thinking about Leo’s pain. She can’t sleep at all. At the same time, she becomes more
and more restless and has difficulty breathing.

Finally, Claire can’t sleep. She has to get up and walk to the balcony and blow. It’s almost autumn and
it’s a bit cooler. Claire suddenly wants to go back to the hospital. At least she can get information about
Leo there as soon as possible. She has to wait here all the time.

Leo is in the operating room for more than ten hours. She doesn’t know if Leo is out. She doesn’t know
if he is out of danger and will come out safely.

Claire has a lot of suspicion. At last she is upset. She might as well go straight to the hospital!

But it’s late and she can’t go out. Claire is upset.

“Mommy, you’re back. Why don’t you sleep?” Conan wakes up. He is standing behind Claire and rubs
his eyes.

Hearing Conan’s voice, Claire’s original impatient heart gradually calms down. She turns around and
sees Conan in his pajamas and looks at her sleepily.

Claire walks over and takes Conan’s hand. She whispers, “Mommy has something to do and can’t
sleep for a while. Conan, get back to bed quickly.”



With that, Claire takes Conan back to bed and wants to cover him.

“Mommy,” Conan pulls his hand out of the quilt. He takes Claire’s hand and his eyes brighten. He
stares at Claire and says, “Mommy, do you miss Daddy? You don’t want to come back, do you?”

What Conan says puzzles Claire. She thinks he doesn’t wake up. She can’t help reaching out and
rubbing his head. She chuckles and says, “Conan, go to bed first. Let’s talk tomorrow.”

With that, Claire puts Conan’s hand back in the quilt. But Conan insists and does not let go. He says
stubbornly, “Mommy, you sleep with Conan.”

Claire stops and then she smiles, “OK, Mommy will sleep with you.”

With that, Claire goes to bed and looks at Conan, speechless.
