Genius Son Sells his Mom to Dad

Chapter 214 Are you leaving me?

Another possibility is that Fiona is actually lying. Leo didn’t say that to her at all. She makes it up!

But according to Leo’s ambiguous attitude towards Fiona, Claire suddenly can’t understand the situation.

Claire is confused.

Fiona is very pleased to see Claire hesitate. The woman does have an idea about Leo that she shouldn’t have. She must be hesitating about the price now.

Fiona sneers and takes a $500000 check out of her bag and throws it in front of Claire. She quips, “I’ll give you a million and a half dollars at most. I advise you to be wise. I have made the biggest concession!”

Claire looks at Fiona’s check. She suddenly smiles eerily. “Miss Thomas, the money…”

“Claire, what are you doing?”

Before Claire finishes, she is suddenly interrupted by a low voice. Claire and Fiona look at the direction of the voice in shock at the same time. They accidentally see Leo with a dark face.

When Claire tries to explain, Fiona calls out, “Leo! You come back so soon!”

Claire is interrupted again. She glares discontentedly at Fiona but finds her pale with fright.

Leo ignores Fiona’s startled expression. He looks coldly at the check in Claire’s hand and asks, “what are you doing?”

Seeing Fiona’s fear and Leo’s anger, Claire thinks something interesting will happen today. She may be able to give back all the anger she gets today.

Claire can’t help laughing in her heart. She takes back her outstretched hand. She waves the check to Leo and says simply, “as you can see.”

“Do you know what you’re doing?”

Claire’s reaction stimulates Leo. Leo yells at Claire.

“Why are you so fierce?” Claire is puzzled. Her discontent is also aroused by Leo.

She is deliberately targeted by Leo today. She hasn’t had a good rest all morning. Now when he sees Fiona giving her the check, he doesn’t blame Fiona but yells at her!

Claire’s face is red with anger. What does she do wrong! Why does she have to be treated so special by Leo!

Claire is angry but Leo is more angry. He points to the check in Claire’s hand and growls, “what do you mean by these two checks?”

There is a bit of heartache and disappointment in his eyes. He wants to eat Claire.

Claire is very upset. She can not help biting her teeth and says angrily, “I want to ask you what you mean! Your woman took the check and told me to get out of here. Now...”

Claire wants to fight with Leo, but something comes to her. She immediately takes the checks back and stares at him, “President Howard, now I promise her. I’ll take the money and get out of here. Don’t you always look down on me? You don’t want me to be your secretary. Well, I’ll give you the liquidated damages now and pay you 50% more. I quit. Bye!”

With that, Claire throws those two checks on Leo. She stands up and angrily wants to leave.

But Leo stops her. He squints and asks incredulously, “do you agree to her terms? Are you leaving me?”

Claire doesn’t look back so she doesn’t see the heartbreak and chill on Leo’s face. She looks up and looks ahead. She doesn’t let her feel aggrieved and shed tears. She takes a deep breath and says firmly, “yes, I won’t do this job. You can go to whoever you like, and I won’t play with you any more! You and your little lover can continue to love each other!”

Claire throws Leo’s hand away.

Claire breaks free and strides out of the restaurant.

After Claire leaves, Leo stands cold. Fiona’s mood changes from fear to confusion.

She stands up and walks to Leo and shakes his arm. She asks softly, “Leo, what’s the matter with you?”

Leo coldly throws Fiona’s hand away. He looks coldly at Fiona and asks, “why did you give her the money?”

Leo is really angry. Fiona feels anxious again. She bites her lower lip and hesitates for a moment. She says innocently, “Leo, you said you don’t like the secretary. I see you are cold to her today. I think she doesn’t want to quit so you are upset. I do it for you. I like you and don’t want to see you upset, so I gave her money and let her leave you.”

“Besides, she has promised to leave. Leo, don’t be angry.” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

With that, Fiona takes a step closer to Leo and reaches out to hug Leo’s arm again.

Leo gives her a light glance and pushes Fiona’s hand away. He says unhappily, “you don’t have to decide my business. In the future, don’t make your own decisions like you do today.”

“...”

Leo’s little action shows a lot of things.

Fiona feels cold. She knows that her behavior today really disappoints Leo. At the same time, she is reluctant and dissatisfied with Claire.

She is just a secretary. Why is Leo so serious? He can find another secretary. Fiona is smart. She sees the way Leo gets along with Claire just now and feels that their relationship is definitely not simple.

Fiona has a hunch that this secretary is different to Leo. At the thought of such a possibility, Fiona has a trace of hostility to Claire.

What’s more, Claire’s beauty makes all women envious, let alone the consequences of such a woman staying with a man. Fiona has to watch out for Claire. That’s why she just offered Claire money and asked her to leave.

Now it seems that she is right. Fortunately, she just forced Claire away. If she stays with Leo, she doesn’t know what the consequences will be.

She is just a secretary. She can’t beat her!
