Genius Son Sells his Mom to Dad

Chapter 197 Will you be a mistress

Is he doubting her?

Claire takes a deep breath and tries to calm down. She says quietly, “I did it to get into the company. Now the competition is so fierce. There must be many beautiful women who want to be secretaries.”

“But there are many women who do bad things because of their career advancement and their admiration for their superiors. For example, internal information of the company is leaked. For example, they just want to seduce their superiors rather than concentrate on work. For example, the working environment is broken. As a boss, you certainly don’t like your secretary to do this.”

“So I purposely made myself look ugly and honest and naive. Don’t you think I was likely to be hired?”

When Claire finishes, Leo can’t help laughing. Ha ha, his secretary is so interesting. It is the first time he has heard of the idea.

Although he once had the kind of secretary she said, and even her former secretary tried her best to attract his attention, he knows but never cares. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

Women like powerful people. Leo has long been used to being surrounded by such women.

Leo’s laughter confuses Claire. “What are you laughing at? Isn’t that so? I think I’m smart.”

“Smart?” Hearing Claire’s words, Leo laughs even more happily.

This is the first time Claire has seen Leo laugh happily. Usually he is as serious as an iceberg. Now he looks approachable and warm.

The morning sun makes Leo look like he is gilded. His laughter softens his face and makes him handsome.

For a moment, Claire is surprised.

But Leo’s next words break her imagination, “but I remember you were rejected by the interviewer when you applied. Tracy recommended you as my secretary so you could enter the company. You say you are smart?”

“...”

Well, she thinks too much. Leo looks very handsome, but his character is very poor.

Why does Leo know so much about her interview? Did he investigate it on purpose?

Claire thinks for a moment, but decides to fight back. She says uneasily, “I was so ugly that the interviewer turned me down. I remember the interviewer said that the manager of your company wanted beautiful woman. I didn’t expect a manager in your company who likes beautiful women and doesn’t work hard.”

Claire angrily refutes Leo.

Leo’s face changes slightly, but he is just not satisfied that the manager gave Claire such a chance to contradict him.

Leo adjusts his mood and says to Claire seriously, “this is your fault. Can’t you think differently? Some bosses like their secretarys to look good. So they are happy at work. Who wants his secretary to be an ugly woman?”

Claire is dismissive of Leo’s words. She glances at Leo and laughs, “that’s because men are lecherous, or you won’t give such a woman a chance. Now there are many mistresses because of office romance.”

Claire’s words gets Leo thinking. He thinks for a moment and looks at Claire seriously. His eyes twinkle. “So, will you be a mistress?”

“...”

Claire’s heart suddenly beats fast and rhythmically. Leo’s words make her stiff. It seems that her blood is flowing back all over her body, and Claire feels her brain is very hot.

What does Leo mean?

He already has a fiancee. Does he want her to be his mistress?

Or is he suspecting that she wants to be a mistress?

But she can’t bear both.

What’s more, she doesn’t want to be a mistress at all! Why does she want to be a mistress? She should be a wife!

Even though she and Leo don’t have a marriage license at all! This makes Claire a little frustrated!

Claire feels disdainful and sneers. She gives Leo a meaningful look and says with a smile, “president, stop kidding. I have a son. I’m not going to be a mistress.”

“Not necessarily!” Leo knows he’s a little over the top, but he goes on. He looks ahead and says to Claire, “after all, you’re a single mother and you work hard. Who knows if you will be a mistress? Where is the father of the child? He is too irresponsible. He asked you to raise your child alone.”

Leo is challenging Claire’s bottom line. How can he seriously say that she wants to be a mistress?

Is he dirty or does her behavior make him think she is a dissolute woman?

“President, I think you misunderstand.” Claire is angry but smiles meaningfully. She looks at Leo and says, “why should I be a mistress? Whose mistress do I want to be? I don’t think it’s good for us to discuss this. People will think I have an affair with you.”

“...” Leo takes a look at Claire and stops talking.

...

The conversation makes them unhappy. They have breakfast and fly to City B together.

City B is a coastal city, where the main industry is coastal scenic spot tourism. Especially in summer, many tourists go there.

It is afternoon when they get off the plane. Leo says they can go to the hotel to have a rest first and discuss cooperation tomorrow.

Claire follows him unhappily to the hotel. As soon as she wants to rest, Leo knocks on her door.

“What?” As soon as she is going to sleep, Leo comes to disturb her, and her face is not very good.

“Let’s go swimming.” Leo says happily.
