章節 316: Fooling him

Claire stood in front of the white house, her hands gripping the handle of her luggage a distraught look on her face. She stood there for the longest time, just staring at the house as though contemplating whether to go in or not. After much hesitance, she finally took the first step;

''Claire dear, what brings you here? '' Mr. Howard asked with all smiles on his face as he walked out of the house, as though he had been expecting her.

Claire stared at him and bit her lower lip, walking past him into the house, she heard him call her several times, but she didn't reply.

Mr. Howard muffled a chuckle; he knew she would come around soon, once she realized those fantasies of hers were not real. Thankfully she had made the right choice, but… wasn't it too soon for her to come to him?

He wondered but then he decided to watch her closely, if she knew about the deal, Leo would have lost and he didn't seem like someone that wanted to take chances.
