Chapter 351 Strange silence

“That’s right. I’m waiting for Claire, too. Are you talking to me when you ask a lot of useless questions?”
Kate blushes, and then she turns her head.

She looks like she is talking to an invisible person next to her.

Luke is anxious but he is amused by Kate. He looks at Kate again with interest and touches his jaw
with his hand. He says seriously, “it’s interesting, Kate. I haven’t seen you for a few days. You learned
to flirt?”

“What? You are so rude. You...”

Kate wants to tease Luke. After all, Luke is gentle and decent. Maybe it will be fun to tease him. But
apparently Kate is also a rookie. She is teased by Luke and becomes incoherent for a while.

“Kate, where did you learn these flirting methods?” Luke doesn’t seem to be going to let Kate go,
because she’s rarely that interesting.

And if they keep silent with each other, Luke will die before Claire gets back here. The cause of his
death, of course, is suffocation.

“Asshole, you’re a scum like Leo.” Kate is so angry that she stomps and stares at Luke.

But when she thinks they are in a hospital, Kate is more restrained.

“Well, you’re exposed. It’s good. You’re not as good at flirting as Tracy.”

The tension makes Luke feel more relaxed or normal.

“Tracy? That bitch who has embarrassed Claire? No, that’s not the point.” Kate stares as if she has
found some secrets. “How do you know that woman is good at it?”



It’s a strange concern, but it’s easy to misunderstand.

“Because I had a conversation with her before. That kind of woman is lewd and wants to seduce every
man she meets, especially the typical golden bachelor like me. Of course, I controlled myself.” Luke
smiles smugly and is not embarrassed at all.

“You are cheeky. Why do you explain it to me? It has nothing to do with me.” Kate stands up and paces
back and forth in the ward.

Is that an explanation? Luke doesn’t know if it counts, but it shouldn’t.

“You’re boring. Miss Kate, if you can’t get married in the future, don’t blame me for not teaching you.”
Luke curls his lips and legs.

It’s strange that Luke’s anxiety eases a lot after his quarrel with Kate.

It’s a little weird.

“If I can’t get married, I will pester you...” Kate’s back to Luke and mumbles. She doesn’t seem to want
Luke to hear it at all, but she wants to say it.

Like all women, Kate often hesitates. Girls who ride motorcycles and use knives to cut people also
know euphemism or it’s called embarrassment.

Luke makes a confused sound.

“Have you begun to chant? Are you scolding me again?” Luke smiles quietly. Kate is standing in the
sun so her back in front of the window looks like a picture.

From this point of view, it’s really beautiful. Even Luke who is a critical man can’t deny it.

“I’m scolding you. Do you have an opinion?”



Kate suddenly turns her head and meets Luke’s eyes for the first time.

Luke’s eyes are deep. Although they are dark, Kate feels that there is more than nothingness in them.
It seems that there are many other deeper things.

Anyway, Kate is attracted.

Is she really attracted?

A second!

Two seconds!

Three seconds!

Four seconds!

...

Kate clocks in her mind but at last she can’t hold on. She turns and continues to look out of the window
and pretends to be watching when Claire will return.

Luke coughs twice and continues to smile at Kate’s slender and beautiful back. It makes him feel
comfortable.

The atmosphere in the ward is silent again.

However, it is quite different from the silence which is full of anxiety, helplessness and the unique smell
of disinfection water in the hospital. There are some expectations and some warm intentions and
palpitations in this silence.

Their silence remains until Claire’s figure appears downstairs.



“Ah, she’s back...”

Kate turns around and stares into Luke’s eyes and says.

Luke nods.

It seems that the atmosphere has become a bit disappointing. Perhaps some of them are thinking that
if Claire came back later, it would be nice to keep the comfortable silence a little longer.

Claire’s eyes are still red and listless after she cries. But Conan is relieved. He was anxious when he
ran out of the hospital but now he looks more relaxed.

“What happened? Claire?” Kate’s voice is as loud as ever. She looks at the haggard Claire and says in
shock.

“Did Tracy bully you again? Does that woman want to die?” Kate is particularly angry.

Luke says helplessly, “at least you should listen to Claire first. Don’t worry.”

Claire nods and says with a smile, “I did go to Tracy, and Howard Group’s problem has been solved.”

Luke is shocked. He thinks Claire’s safe return means she didn’t agree to Tracy’s request.

“Do you really agree to Tracy?” Luke’s face turns pale.

Claire shakes her head and thinks about it and decides not to tell Luke what happened. She just says
calmly, “of course I don’t. I’m not that stupid.”

“Then how did you solve it?” Luke insists.



“Anyway, I’ll take care of Leo tomorrow. Go and deal with the company’s problems again. If there is no
accident, Tracy will help Howard Group. After all, she’s Leo’s fiancee.” Claire speaks weakly and looks
very tired.

Luke still has a lot of questions about how Claire solved the problem and why she is so tired.

But her current state shows that he can’t get the answer, so he doesn’t ask any more.
