Leo is desperate. He thinks Claire is unhappy with him for buying her and killing Bryce because of Emma.
Leo thinks she can forgive him as long as he treats her well.
After all, Bryce and Emma are not very important people to Claire.
But!
Now Leo knows that the little wild cat is Claire. So Claire’s virginity was given to him. What’s more, Claire’s baby is his!
He can’t accept the fact. And when Claire knows that she is the little wild cat and Leo is the man that night and her baby’s father, how sad and unbelievable she is!
Leo knows this fact is hard to accept, let alone he has humiliated her and misunderstood her!
Leo thought of Emma as the little wild cat. He misunderstood that she was a slut and that she had an affair with Bryce. He dare not think of all this!
He’s a jerk!
For a while, Leo falls into deep regret. Even he can’t forgive himself, let alone Claire!
Luke can’t bear it. He knows that Leo will react like this when he tells the truth, but that’s the reality.
Sooner or later, you have to face the reality. No matter how you escape, the reality is always in front of you.
The best way is to face it bravely.
Luke can’t help comforting him. “Leo, you don’t have to blame yourself. The facts are in front of you. You can confess to Claire and talk to her. I believe she is not a unreasonable person.”
“Luke, she won’t forgive me.” Leo is very haggard at the moment. He has lost confidence. He looks at Luke and gives a wry smile. “I know your kindness. I need to think for a while.”
“All right.” Luke nods. He has done what he can. The result depends on Leo himself.
A dinner ends with Leo’s lack of appetite. Seeing that he is in a bad mood, Luke proposes to go to the bar for a drink.
They were going to drink and celebrate.
As soon as Leo arrives at the bar, he keeps drinking. No matter how Luke persuades him, it is useless.
Luke drives him home and leaves.
...
When Luke leaves, Leo opens his drunk eyes. He can’t sleep yet. He has to confess to Claire.
Claire can’t sleep because of this morning. As soon as she closes her eyes, she will think of Leo crying on her neck.
It seems that Leo’s tears are still on her neck.
Claire sighs and decides to forget it. She’s going to hate Leo for life. She can’t be shaken by such a trifle!
Claire closes her eyes. The ward is quiet. When she is about to fall asleep, the sudden noise at the door wakes her up.
Claire has goose bumps at the thought of what Luke said. Does the pervert want to insult her again?

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....
