Although the kiss that day is fascinating and Leo continues to be nice to Claire for the next few days, Claire still ignores him as if their kiss that day doesn’t exist.
At the same time, Claire accuses herself of not controlling herself and making Leo seize the opportunity.
They remain deadlocked and silent.
At the same time, Claire gradually recovers. At last she is about to leave the hospital.
Claire is worried about the news that she will be discharged the next day. She promises Juan that she will wait for his news in the hospital. Now she is about to leave hospital, but she still hasn’t heard from Juan!
Is he going to break his promise?
She must not go back to Leo’s villa. If she goes back, she will never have a chance to escape!
No matter whether Juan will help her or not, she must run away and can’t stay with Leo any longer.
Claire is anxiously looking forward to the miracle, and she keeps looking at her mobile phone.
Claire’s abnormality is discovered by Leo. He asks her with concern, “what’s the matter? Are you not feeling well?”
“Nothing!” Claire rejects Leo’s concern.
Why is this man so troublesome! He is around her like a fly all day.
All of a sudden Claire sees a cell phone number that she doesn’t save call her.
Claire answers the phone quickly. Sure enough, she hears a magnetic voice in the handset, “I’m ready. A black car will be waiting for you at the hospital gate at 3 p.m. You can get in the car directly.”
“OK!” Claire responds immediately and smiles. She is very excited.
Juan seems to have something else to do. After that, he hangs up.
However, this does not affect Claire’s good mood. She puts down her mobile phone and smiles.
Seeing that she is in a better mood after receiving a call, Leo can’t help asking, “who called you?”
Claire remembers that Leo is here. Her good mood suddenly disappears. She replies casually, “nothing. Kate will pick me up tomorrow and we will have a good time. It’s boring that I’ve been in hospital for so long.”
Hearing this, Leo frowns. He doesn’t agree with Claire. “It’s not good that you have a good time just after you leave the hospital. You’re still pregnant.”
“It’s none of your business!” Claire takes a look at Leo. She wants to satirize him, but she suddenly remembers an important thing!
It’s almost half past one, which means she can leave here in an hour and a half!
Her time is running out!
But Leo follows her like a fly. Claire has a headache at the thought of it.

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....
