Luke is stunned. He looks at the angry Leo and asks, “what’s the matter?”
Claire is weak and hard to talk, but she glares at Leo angrily and shouts, “Leo, what do you mean? You’d better explain it clearly!”
“I don’t need to explain! My injury is the best evidence!”
Leo walks up to Claire with his left hand up and forces her to see clearly, “look, this is the evidence that your adulterer murdered me! Slut! You are eager to be with your lover soon after you married me. You are eager for your adulterer to kill me.”
“Claire, I don’t know you are so vicious! You want to kill your husband!”
The blood on Leo’s left hand has coagulated. His bloodstains and wounds are terrible. Claire pushes his hand away and roars, “I don’t know what you’re talking about! I didn’t do that! Leo, you’re crazy.”
But Claire’s temples keep jumping. Intuition tells her that something must have happened; otherwise Leo won’t be so angry.
But she didn’t do what Leo said!
“Ha ha...”
Hearing this, Leo laughs. He laughs madly, horribly and tremblingly. He slaps Claire with his bloody left hand and sneers, “Claire, you don’t have to pretend anymore. Every time I see you pretending to look like that, I feel sick!”
With that, he doesn’t listen to Claire’s explanation and says to Luke standing at the door, “find Bryce! How dare he find someone to kill me? I’ll let him know today that I’m not easy to mess with!”
Hearing this, Luke understands that the killer last night was sent by Bryce. And he sent a killer to kill Leo today.
It seems that this is possible. Bryce is competing with Leo for Claire, so he may threaten Leo like this.
Thinking about it, Luke shakes his head. He hopes it isn’t what he thinks, and if it is, Bryce pisses Leo off. Leo will punish him severely.
Luke can only pray for Bryce in his heart.
Leo is the father of the underworld. He quickly finds Bryce through his underworld relationships and catches him.
At the same time, Claire, who is unable to leave the hospital, is arrested by Leo and placed under house arrest at home. He is afraid that she will secretly meet Bryce when he doesn’t notice.
“Leo, you’re crazy! I am a person! I’m your wife! Leo, why do you lock me up!”
Claire is locked in the glove room and keeps slapping the door and yelling at the door.
Leo sneers and says cruelly, “if I don’t lock you up, should I wait for you to let your adulterer kill me? Ha ha, you can stay here. I will bring Bryce’s body back to you!”

The readers' comments on the novel: Genius Son Sells his Mom to Dad
The storyline could have been better -- organization and cohesion of episodes could stand improvement, ending could have been more definitive resolving the many conflicts between the protagonists. Of course, the despicable treatment of Leo towards Claire initially, e.g., selling her off in an auction and giving her to the madam of the club as princess is inhuman and a violation to the wife's rights and honor. I was wondering why she did not leave after these maltreatments. Oh, well, the conclusion [if the narrative ends in Chapter 488] is quite disappointing and anti-climactic. Thank you just the same....
The end of the story is wanting, considering how the episodes build up to conflict after conflict and concluding in yet another conflict. But then c'est la vie! Thank you....
