Chapter 184 I’m still staying here tonight
Leo is a president, but he touches her feet.
Before she can respond, Leo gently massages her sprain.
Claire just thinks the whole world has changed!
She must be dreaming, right? Only in a dream can Leo be so gentle and good to her.
Claire is shocked. Leo squats quietly on the ground and rubs her foot. The scene is incredibly beautiful. She can’t believe Leo is so nice to her.
Time seems to stop at this moment. Claire can’t help holding her breath and doesn’t dare to use too much force. She is afraid of destroying the precious time.
Claire sees Leo calm and serious. Her heart seems to beat with great force.
She watches Leo squat down and rub her foot. He is gentle and doesn’t make her feel uncomfortable. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Time flies.
However, the dream is over.
When Leo finishes massaging her feet, Claire slowly regains her mind.
She frowns and doesn’t know Leo’s current attitude.
So Claire clenches her teeth and whispers, “Why are you so nice to me all of a sudden?”
“What?”
Leo seems to laugh at a big joke.
Claire is a little confused. Leo says impatiently, “I want your foot to recover soon. We are going on business tomorrow. The plane will leave at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning. If your foot don’t recover, you have to climb to the airport.”
“...” Claire stares at Leo and suddenly becomes speechless.
Claire instantly realizes that he did it for work. She should be angry with Leo for teasing and using her just to hope she can go on a business trip.
But she is inexplicably disappointed and not in the mood to do anything.
She ignores Leo and turns a deaf ear to what he says. Claire holds the pillow in her arms and puts her face in it.
Leo is confused. Usually when he says that, Claire will be angry at him and they will quarrel. He didn’t expect her to be quiet and a little unhappy today.
To distract Claire, Leo pretends to be casual and asks, “did you have dinner? You seem to have just woken up.”
Claire remembers that she hasn’t had dinner yet. The food she had at noon has been digested. She feels a little hungry at once.
Claire looks at Leo and pouts and slowly shakes her head.
Seeing this, Leo can’t help smiling smugly, “in that case, let’s order.”
“No.” Claire stops him unhappily. “I can cook at home. I don’t want to eat out.”
With that, she gets up from the sofa and limps to the kitchen.
“Oh? Can you cook?” Leo looks at Claire with interest and follows her.
“Of course. Do you think I’m like you?” Claire replies disdainfully.
Leo chuckles and says, “women should cook. It’s normal that men can’t cook. You don’t have to compare with me.”
“...”
Claire pouts and doesn’t want to talk to him again.
Leo is a typical male chauvinism. He thinks women should do housework and men should work outside. This kind of stereotyped thinking is really unpleasant.
Claire wants her boyfriend to cook, too. Then she can enjoy it. They can both work.
This is Leo’s character. Claire hates many of his shortcomings.
However, when Leo watches Claire limp, he really wants to carry her.
When Leo thinks of Claire’s adorable skin last night and looks at Claire in his pajamas at home, he suddenly has a sense of leisure.
Claire is still in ugly make-up because she’s afraid that Leo will suddenly come to her house, but she can’t wear professional clothes at home. So she wears pajamas and shows her good figure and white skin.
Leo is content to watch Claire cook in the kitchen. She’s not as old as she looks in the company at all. If he ignores her face and only looks at her figure, she looks like a young woman in her twenties.
Leo secretly makes up his mind that he will take Claire to dress up when he is free. She must be a rare beauty after dressing up. Leo believes in his own judgment.
While Claire is busy in the kitchen, Leo sits at the table and looks at her pleasantly. He feels that it seems nice to have someone make dinner for him when he comes home after a day’s work.
Although it’s a little flat, Leo enjoys it. No woman ever waits at home for him to come back and make dinner for him and then they ate and slept together.
Leo suddenly finds out that he thinks too much. He casts off the strange ideas in his mind. He feels that he is possessed. He wants to marry an old woman.
He’s crazy.
Claire quickly cooks three dishes and one soup. Her cooking is average so Conan doesn’t let her cook. She can’t stir up other people’s appetites with her cooking.
Claire hasn’t cooked for years.
Although Claire is reluctant, she can’t help peeping at Leo and wants to see how he reacts to her cooking.
However, Leo eats quietly and doesn’t speak.
Is it delicious or not?
Claire hesitates but dares not to ask. If she asks him, he will think she cares.
No way! She can’t ask him! If she asks, she loses!
Leo says plainly after eating, “not bad.”
Is it good or bad?
Although Leo’s expression is calm, Claire is secretly happy. She thinks he is praising her.
When Claire is happy, Leo says, “I’ll stay here tonight. We are going to the airport tomorrow morning. I will set out with you at that time, so I will not spend so much time on the road.”
