Genius Son Sells his Mom to Dad novel Chapter 178
Well, Claire just wants to stay away from Bryce so she thanks him.
To make the atmosphere less awkward, Claire changes the subject. She says in a slightly reproachful tone, “compared to this, you pretended to be dead and didn’t tell me. This is the worst.”
Bryce smiles and says awkwardly, “it was my fault that I didn’t inform you in advance. It was an emergency at that time. I apologize here.”
“Do you think I’ll let you go?” Claire stares at him and slams Bryce on the shoulder angrily. She says angrily, “it was a car accident! It was death and body. You make me worry in vain! I feel guilty for six years!”
Bryce wants to laugh but holds back. He says solemnly, “OK, it’s my fault. I deserve to die. Tell me how you want to punish me. I have no regrets.”
When he finishes, Claire can’t continue to scold him. Bryce is very kind to her. If she asks for anything more, she is too much.
She can only pretend to say angrily, “compared to this, you live well is the best compensation for me!”
There is nothing more important than life.
Feeling the concern in Claire’s words, Bryce stops smiling. He suddenly says seriously, “I will live for you.”
Claire knows it is Bryce’s promise, but she pretends she can’t stand it and shivers.
She is thinking, fool, there are many good women in the world. You don’t have to love me all the time.
I’m not worth it!
Bryce smiles. He doesn’t want to continue to discuss the topic, so he changes the topic, “by the way, why did you return home this time? Why are you still with Leo? I remember you left six years ago to escape from him.”
Claire thinks for a while and tells the truth again. She has said it to several people these days.
Claire tells Bryce that Conan asked her about his dad and he came back to find his dad without permission and why she wanted to go back with him.
Bryce listens and thinks for a while before he understands Claire’s words, “you mean you’re here with Leo because you suspect he’s hiding your son and you’re going to find clues from him?”
He is the only one who does not praise her son’s intelligence and boldness after listening.
Claire nods and replies, “Yeah, or I don’t want to be around that bastard. I hate him very much.”

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....
