Chapter 430 The Storm is coming
“Mummy, you're so great, it's the topographic map of the castle!” Conan flicks his finger and says cheerfully, “Mummy, you should pass the topographic map to me!”
“Okay, I'll pass it to you right back to the room.”
“I'm afraid not. This is a monitoring loophole. I can only catch your signal here.”
“Oh……”
Claire looks at the bland watch and is a little bit embarrassed, asking, “How do I take a picture, I don't see any camera?”
“Just point your watch at the map, there is a hidden camera on it, I can see your every move there.”
Such a normal and tiny thing, and it got so much functions.
With shocking emotion, Claire looks around to check if anyone is nearby. Then she takes out the map and sweeps it in front of the watch.
“Is it done?”
“OK, get it!”
Conan takes a screenshot, prints it out immediately, and then looks at the map with his eyes burning, feeling victory in front of him.
Claire is not so easy to handle. She is still under Juan's surveillance, and she doesn’t know if the weird behavior just now would make him doubts.
“Conan, it's time for me to go back. Juan has been staring at me from behind. I'm afraid that he will be suspicious of me.”
“Okay, Mommy, you have to be careful, Daddy and I will get you out of there. By the way, I love you.”
The touching words make Claire's eyes wet, and tears almost fall.
“Baby, Mommy loves you too.”
After hanging up the call with Conan, Claire walks straight forward.
But even she doesn’t look back, she could feel Juan's hot eyes.
That guy keeps looking in the direction of Claire. Although Claire feels that her actions are not that obvious, she doesn’t know whether she could fool Juan's eyes.
Forget about it, Bennett has gone this far. She has to go with the minority!
Taking a deep breath, Claire clenches his pink fist in her pocket and moves forward.
As Juan looks at Claire's back, his pupils tighten slowly.
...
Meeting room——
After arranging all of his subordinates, Leo dismiss everyone, leaving only Luke, then Howard frowns at the topographic map.
“Juan is really cunning. he arranges the hiding place to such a remote area. No wonder we could not find him before.”
Leo is calm, saying blankly, “No matter how cunning Juan is, Bennett must be rescued safe and sound this time.”
“That's true.”
“Besides, prepare the cheetah.”
Luke freezes and looks at Leo, saying, “Howard, you are ...”
Leo interrupts Luke impatiently with saying, “If I can't rescue Bennett, what good will I do to save my strength?” All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
“It looks like you gonna give everything you have this time,” Luke smiles bitterly and says, “I understand what you mean and will arrange it.”
Luke wants to say something, but looking at Leo's resolute face, he swallows those words back.
...
Juan has been busy for the past two days and has been too busy to bother Claire.
Without Juan around, Claire certainly enjoys it. But in the peace, there is a sense of suffocation, as if the wind and rain are coming.
With her hands on her chin, Claire stares at a table of meals falling in a daze, not even realizing someone come up to her.
“Why don’t eat the meal?”
Claire is startled and looks back in a hurry.
Seeing Juan, Claire scratches a complex look in her eyes, then turns her head and says coldly, “I don’t have any appetite.”
Sitting in the opposite of Claire, Juan stares greedily at Claire, with a seemingly ridiculous smile, saying, “I know that as long as someone are alive, your mind will wonder around and think of something unhappy. After, I take care of what I’m busy with I will take you on vacation, which will definitely make you smile again.”
Juan says the words as if it’s something which is not important, but Claire is heart-beating.
With eyes looking down and long eyelashes covering the panic in her eyes, Claire pretends to be calm and says, “Talking nonsense is really easy. With your power, there is no way to defeat Howard.”
“That's too ignorant of you, oh, right, you can't watch the news now. You don't know how miserable Leo is now.”
Juan's inevitable confidence makes Claire could not help looking up at him.
“What have you done to him?”
Leaning forward slightly, Juan smiles like a demon and says, “You will know the answer right away, and it will definitely surprise you.”
Claire purse her lips, eventually cursing, "Juan, you are a bastard!"
“Whatever you say, I won't mind.” Juan stands up, raises his jaw, and clutches Claire, saying in a compassionate tone, “Oh, don't forget to eat the meal, it won't taste good when it gets cold."
After speaking, Juan turnarounds and leaves the room.
Immediately after Juan closes, Claire sweeps all the dishes in front of her, then sits panting at the table. Her eyes are full of unwilling and angry.
Hearing the sound of things being broken in the room, a complex expression of pain flashes on Juan’s face.
But soon, the eyes turn into a calm deep pond without ripples.
Worried about Leo's situation, Claire goes to the outdoor platform while unattended.
This time, Claire gets more careful, and she takes a book to the platform. After sitting down, she opens the book to cover her lips.
But how can she contact Conan?
Claire thinks of the last time she hits the watch and hears Conan's voice, so she decides to follow suit and continue working on the watch.
Taking a deep breath, Claire smashes the watch against the edge of the table, changing the angle from time to time, smashing in all directions.
“Mummy, don't hit it again, my tracker will be broken by you.”
Sure enough, this method works!
Although the sound in the headphones sounds with a complex emotion, but to Claire, it is the best sound of the time.
Trying to cover up her excitement, Claire lowers her voice and goes straight to the point.
“Conan, what's wrong with your daddy recently, is he in any trouble?”
Conan tries to talk about something else, “It's a bit of a hassle, but Daddy will take care of it on his own, Mommy, don't worry.”
“No, I believe Juan is going to make a big move lately. You remind dad to be careful.”
“Okay, I will.”
Frowning slightly, Claire says, “No, I'm still uncertain. Otherwise, I'll talk to Juan.”
Claire’s advice shocks Conan and he says, “Mum, don't do anything, Juan is completely crazy now, you’d better stay away from him.”
Hearing the tension in Conan's words, Claire notices something strange and asks, “What the hell has Juan done?”
Reaching his hand and scratch his head, Conan says in a distance from the microphone, “Oops, the signal has weakened again, Mommy, Mommy?”
