Embrace Love's
CH 25'S. Dear

Claude wakes up and has breakfast with Joanna and Vincent as usual. He was surprised to find Catalina also sitting at the table.

"It's a little bit of a surprise to see you having breakfast with Cat. Wouldn't you rather do it yourself?" Claude looked at Catalina who was chewing bread without raising her face.

"I saw the man who spoke to you Cat. Don't just focus on your bread." Hearing the remark Catalina looked up quickly, the remark reminded her of what Claude said and did to her in the library room. Only difference then was that he focused on books, not on bread.

Claude raised his eyebrows, waiting for the girl to scold him. But not a single word came out of Catalina's lips until finally the face looked down again.

Vincent looked at the two in turn. Feeling that something has happened and wanting to know what it is.

"We're going to take Leon to the hospital, he's going to have to see a doctor." Joanna tells her sister the reason Catalina finally had to force herself to have breakfast with them.

"I don't want to wait for him to finish breakfast. We'll leave as soon as I finish breakfast so I can go straight to the office. So this stubborn girl had to eat with me!" Yoana smiled obliquely looking at Catalina who was pouting towards her.

"Oh, come. You don't want him fussing all night anymore, do you" said Yoana.

"Leon's sick?" Claude asked in a worried tone.

"No. Something natural about the teeth that will grow. It seems to bother him a little." Joanna finished her breakfast quickly.

"You're taking us, aren't you Vincent?" Joanna looked at the man who had been silent since sitting in her chair.

"No. I'll drive you guys." Claude said those words firmly.

Joanna raised her eyebrows, Catalina looked at him sourly and Vincent just stared at him flat.

"Why? Leon is also my nephew ... Vincent's going straight to the office. So just show me where we're taking Leon."

Claude ate quickly and drank his juice once a sip, making Joanna feel surprised her sister was not choking.

"Come ... Leon is ready?" tanyanya.

Catalina got up and put her cutlery into the sink. He stepped heavily, he did not like it when Claude drove them.

"What's going on?" The full-quest question from Yoana was heard when Catalina was already far from the scope of being able to listen to the conversation from the dining room.

"What?" Claude asked back.

"Don't pretend to be stupid! What are you doing ? That girl looks even more dislike you!" cetus Joanna narrowed with a probing look.

Claude cupped one hand to his chest as he looked at Joanna with his heart. "However you thought I was bothering that girl. He hasn't liked me since he set foot in this mansion, dear Joanna. Without needing me to do anything."

Yoana grunting. "I can't believe it. You must be bothering him!"

Claude smiled broadly. "It's up to you to believe it or not. It's just that you need to know that from now on, I want to be involved in any activity with Leonard."

Joanna raised her eyebrows in wonder. "You mean?"

"As now. To the hospital, shopping for Leon's clothes, milk, sightseeing. Whatever you do with Leon and Catalina, I need you to tell me. I'd like to come along if my job isn't much ."

Yoana grunting. "Why suddenly? Is there something I don't know?"

"Yoana .. You snorted too much this morning. Not feminine at all," Claude sneered, deliberately irritating her brother.

"You want to come along if Catalina comes along. Didn't you?" The flat tone of Vincent's voice made Claude grin at him.

"You're always sharper to analyse, Vincent. Of course that's not my only reason. I also want to spend a lot of time with Leon. Like that time ... in the amusement park," Claude said of his release. Yoana frowns at the thought of Claude taking Leon to an amusement park.

"You? To the amusement park? With Leon? When?" Buru Yoana curious. Claude and Vincent take a look, realizing Leon's kidnapping plan will be uncovered if Joanna continues to hunt with her questions. Both of them were silent and locked their mouths tightly.

Vincent immediately got up and fled.

Claude looked at the man in annoyance. Vincent is completely unwilling to help him escape from Yoana's questions.

"Tell me. When are you guys going to the amusement park!?" Joanna pointed her fork at Claude, as if threatening her sister if she did not open her mouth.

"Aunty?" Catalina called out to Yoana who was brandishing a fork. Yoana and Claude turned to Catalina who was already holding Leonard with one hand and the other hand carrying a baby bag.

Claude saw an opportunity to escape. He got up and immediately took the baby bag out of Catalina's hand.

"Come, Honey. We're leaving now" Claude said.

Catalina frowned hearing that remark. He knew that dear call Claude was pointing at Leonard. But I don't know why he shuddered a little. It was as if Claude had deliberately made that call for the two of them.

Joanna listened, looking at her sister's grinning expression and Catalina who shuddered and frowned. He got up and understood a little about the situation between the two. One may have fallen in love without realizing it and Joanna hopes this possibility is real, and the other looks allergic and uninterested. Joanna smiled widely. It would be interesting to see Claude handle this situation.

"Let's go, '" said Joanna briefly and walked ahead of the two out of the mansion.

"Yes, what's wrong?" Joanna picks up a phone call from one of her designers. He listened and then replied a moment later.

"alright. Wait right there. I'll be here any minute." Yoana turned off her mobile phone and immediately gave Claude an order.

"Claude, put me down on Lex TV. Just a few more blocks ahead. There's something important I need to finish. You took Catalina to the hospital. The appointment was made. Catalina will know what to do there later."

Claude just kept quiet not to argue. Catalina tried to protest.

"But you said you would accompany me there" he said agitatedly. Joanna smiled a little.

"I've appointed my replacement, Lina. I have something to deal with, Claude will be with you."

Catalina tightened her arms at Leon. Trying to save the annoyance of being left with Claude.

After a few blocks, the black car stopped in front of a building. Joanna lowered her legs and turned back towards the raving Leon.

"Sorry, Aunty's not accompanying you, honey. But Daddy Claude will take care of you." Yoana kisses Leon's plump cheeks and gets out of the car leaving them. Claude was still not running his car, making Catalina frown and reprimand him.

"You'll make us late if we don't leave right now" Catalina said.

"I wouldn't have moved if you hadn't moved to sit in front, Cat. I'm not your driver." Claude looked at the girl's face. The lips shriveled in dislike, but the unobtrusive girl moved in with Leon in her arms.

"Well .. we're leaving now, my dear!"

Back Catalina shuddered. For some reason, with every affectionate call coming from the man's lips, Catalina felt it was not just aimed at Leonard, but at him. It made him feel very anxious, as if he felt he was being hunted something and made prey.

May it be just my feeling ...
