Chapter 381 Mystery
Chapter 381 Mystery
Alyssa relaxes and takes the two resignations. She explains, “of course not. I don’t know them at all. I just thinks Claire is happy. President Howard is very concerned about her.”
Leo finally hears Alyssa say the right thing. He smiles and looks at Claire. But Leo is disappointed to find that Claire doesn’t care what Leo says but looks at the two resignations.
“What’s the matter, Claire?” Leo feels weird.
Claire takes her eyes back from the resignations and says with a smile, “nothing.”
Leo coughs and says to Alyssa, “you can deal with these two people. Claire is going to make me coffee.”
Alyssa knows she is disturbing them so she is embarrassed. She obeys and goes out of the office.
After Alyssa walks out, Leo asks, “what happened to you just now? What’s wrong with those two resignations?” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Yes, Claire thinks something is wrong. Because Alyssa says she doesn’t know the two people at all and they aren’t friends. But before Claire came into the office, she saw Alyssa talking to them.
Did Alyssa lie? Or was Alyssa talking to them about quitting?
Claire is uncertain and admires Alyssa, so she doesn’t want to tell Leo about it. She says perfunctorily, “I’m distracted. Don’t ask. Would you like coffee?”
It’s a threat. Leo squints and says, “OK, I’m thirsty. Hurry up.”
Claire doesn’t want to, but she skillfully goes into the preparation room. Only Claire in Howard Group can make President Howard’s favorite coffee. This is one of her skills.
After Claire disappears, Leo falls into deep thought. He thinks about it and calls someone.
...
Claire spends the whole afternoon at Leo’s company. They don’t go home together until after work.
Conan, who has previously refused to taste Claire’s cooking, is hungry. When he hears Claire’s footsteps, he runs to her.
“Mommy, braised elbows, stewed meatballs, boiled fish slices. I’m so hungry.”
Conan is starving. He holds Claire’s leg and refuses to let go.
Claire says triumphantly, “are you hungry? Why do you think of me every time you eat?”
Leo jokes, “we should make Conan a delicious meal, especially you, because he can help us a lot today.”
Conan prays and nods.
But Claire is confused. Conan doesn’t seem to have done anything but play computer today. She says, puzzled, “what did you do? Tell me.”
Leo pinches Claire’s nose hard and says mysteriously, “I will teach you a lesson, but in order to teach you a lesson, I will not tell you now.”
“Conan, tell Mommy.” Claire puts her hands on her waist and thinks she can’t teach Leo a lesson, but she can teach her son a lesson.
Conan spreads his hand and says, “I just helped. Actually, I don’t know what happened. I’m telling the truth. Because Mommy said I can’t touch the world of adults too early.”
Leo and Conan don’t explain clearly. Claire says discontentedly, “I don’t think you two want to eat.”
Leo and Conan look at each other and immediately treat Claire as a princess. They massage her but they don’t say what happened.
Claire may not know the secret but she has to eat. In particular, they keep pleading with her, so Claire finally pulls up her sleeves and puts on her apron and goes into the kitchen.
Leo and Conan clap for victory in the living room. Claire is angry and cooks a lot of food. Conan eats so much that he can’t walk.
...
The next day, Claire is finally ready for her upcoming work. But when she is tying Leo’s tie, she is told she can’t go to work today.
Claire angrily tightens Leo’s tie and threatens him, “do you want me to suffocate in this room?”
Leo pleads, “don’t worry. You and Conan are going to my company today. I need you to do something important.”
Claire says discontentedly, “another secret?”
Leo thinks for a moment and says, “it’s a surprise. I can make you less bored, OK?”
Claire is happy and speculates about the mysterious things Leo has been doing since last night.
The three of them go directly to Howard Group’s office. Leo sits in the throne like swivel chair and doesn’t speak.
Conan plays with his cell phone.
Claire doesn’t know what they’re doing. When she is impatient and wants to ask, there is a knock at the door.
It’s Alyssa!
Alyssa enters the office and says confusedly, “President Howard, what can I do for you?”
Instead of answering, Leo nods coldly to Conan. Conan presses his phone and it plays a conversation.
It’s terrible.
The recording is a conversation between two women. One of the women pays the other woman, and the other is responsible for spreading rumors about Claire at Howard Group.
Conan investigates it.
“One is Tracy, and you are the one talking to Tracy.” Conan points to Alyssa and says coldly, “it’s unforgivable to do something to hurt my mommy for a little money.”
When Conan finishes speaking, the recording just stops. The office quiets down.
Alyssa begins to shiver and turns pale. The huge heartbeat makes her feel that her chest is about to burst.
She is serious enough. Not only did she delete the call logs, but she also found two scapegoats when Leo was investigating.
But why is she exposed? She didn’t expect the child in front of her to be a hacker.
Leo finds the recording with Conan’s help. There is evidence and material evidence. The next step is a trial.
