Ch. 171..175: Begging For A Reconciliation Chapter 171-175

Chapter 171

The car quickly arrived at White Group. Leah got off and thanked Han before rushing into the building. However, she failed to notice the man behind her.

Upon arriving, the lady at the front desk was surprised at her sudden arrival, “Miss white.”

“Where is Sasha?” Leah frowned.

“In Mr. Sander’s office.”

They replied in a giddy voice, waiting for the drama to unfold.

Leah walked into the elevator when she noticed that Han had actually followed her.

The elevator door closed shut and the two stared tensely at each other.

“Why did you follow me?” Leah spoke after the awkward silence.

He leaned on the elevator wall and replied “I drove you here, what is wrong with tagging along? Besides, I just wanted to see what the fuss is about.”

She was completely speechless by his attitude.

The elevator opened abruptly. “Cindy, you came. Huh, why is he here?” Serena asked confusedly after noticing Han.

“Let’s save this for later. What’s the situation now?”

“Have a look in the office, I feel so helpless.” She glanced at the office furiously, “She is such a lunatic.”

The office door was left open when loud crashings were heard.

Leah walked over and witnessed the mess that Sasha made. “Bang” Loud crashings of vases could be heard. The room was a complete mess, full of broken pieces and destroyed objects.

Leah narrowed her eyes at the sight.

This office once belonged to Ian but was then given to Leah after her arrival. Most of the furniture was personally prepared by Leah after returning. One of the items was an expensive vase that she had spent over two hundred thousand dollars on.

She had also destroyed a few stacks of design drafts that Leah had drawn.

Seeing her precious hard work destroyed, she stepped forward to grab Sasha by the wrist. She snatched the rafts from her hands and glared coldly into her eyes.

Sasha was stunned by her sudden presence, she glared back at her after, “Oh, you came.”

Leah handed the rafts to Serena who was standing behind her, “What are you fussing over?”

“Can’t you tell, I’m cleaning up.”

“Cleaning up?” Leah frowned.

Sasha nodded while looking at her defiantly, “The trash in the office and you.”

Leah kept a calm composure and walked behind the desk, “This is my office. The one who should Leave is you.”

Sasha glared at her, “Ian canceled your engagement. White Group has nothing to do with you now. Why are you still here?” As she was speaking, she noticed Han standing behind her which worsen her attitude.

“That’s what I thought. Back then, you didn’t really manage the company that our parents had left. Turns out that you’ve been clingy to Mr. Howard. Did you bring him here to try and provoke Ian?”

Leah replied coldly, “The white group belongs to me therefore, it doesn’t concern you. I am also currently the largest shareholder of White Group. This office is also mine. Who gave you the permission to throw away my things?”

“Yours? The company would have collapsed if Ian didn’t manage it for the past two years. Now that the company is successful, you came back to take advantage of it. Get out of the White Group immediately,” She said aggressively.

“You are so unreasonable! Cindy. Let’s just call for security,” said Serena.

“Are you sure that the security guards will make me leave?” Sasha yelled confidently.

Judging from her attitude, Leah had already known the answer.

She regain her composure and asked, “does Ian know about this?”

Sasha raised her chin up high and replied, “of course, he knows. Ian would never let the security guards chase me out.”

Leah pursed her lips. If Ian knows about this, it probably allowed this. Allowed her to cause a commotion and make a fool out of herself.

“If the security can’t get you out. How about calling the police?” Han suggested from behind.

Sasha’s face stiffened.

Han crossed his arms and leaned on the wall and continued, “Do you think that the law will protect you?”

She felt her face flush in embarrassment when suddenly loud footsteps were heard from behind.

Sasha’s face brightened up noticing him, “Ian.”

He walked forward to examine the mess that Sasha had created, judging by this he had already guessed what happened. He was also informed by his assistant about the situation.

“Sarah,” Ian walked towards Leah with a slightly guilty attitude.

Leah raised an eyebrow and asked him, “do you know anything about this?”

He made sudden eye contact with Han who stood beside her. That man had a strong aura like a guardian protecting its treasure.

His heart ached.

Sasha looked at Ian aggrievedly, “Ian.”

Ian brushed her hands off of him and nodded at Leah, “I’m sorry.”

Chapter 172

“Why don’t we just brush off the matter this time?” Ian frowned and looked at Leah nervously.

She had lost faith in him. Ian was defending Sasha. But it doesn’t matter to her anymore. In the end, Leah could care less about their apologies.

She raised her head high to make eye contact with Sasha, who was behind him She said softly to him, “I hope that you will continue to apologize for her, for the rest of your life.”

She took her drafts and stormed off.

He stared at her as she was leaving. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something but nothing came out.

Han chased after her, taking the same elevator.

“Where do you want to go now?”

He didn’t comfort her, nor did he stand up for her. Han quietly walked by her side, opened the car doors for her, and asked as he was leaning against the door.

She placed the documents into the bag and thought for a while, “take me home.”

After arriving at their destination, she fastened her seatbelt and thanked him.

As she was about to get out, Han started speaking, “Was it worth it?”

“Excuse me?” She frowned in confusion.

His eyes were staring dead at the road. His hands grabbed tightly at the steering wheel, his eyes stared far into the distance through the window glass. “Was it worth rejecting me, for him?”

Leah’s eyes furrowed for a second, “You misunderstood, this is my business. It has nothing to do with anyone.”

She walked away quietly after.

Late at night, after finishing her shower, Mrs. White’s phone call came as promised.

Mrs. White kept nagging after she picked up the call, “When are you and Ian getting engaged? I will only feel at ease when this is settled.”

Leah sighed. She kept the previous engagement a secret to surprise Mrs. White, plus Leah was worried that she would fly back after the news.

No one would’ve expected the outcome.

“Mom,” she interrupted, “We will not be engaged.”

Mrs. White was stunned for a moment, “What is the matter? You don’t like him? I told you long ago that he is reliable. Don’t change things suddenly according to your mood. He treated you so well, he waited two years for you.”

Leah leaned against the head of her bed.

Even Mrs. White thought that Ian would’ve never left her side.

But the truth was that Ian was the one who wanted to break off their engagement. In the end, she was abandoned.

“Mom, Sasha is back.” She said lightly.

Mrs. White froze for a moment, her eyes widened in surprise. “Sasha is back? Did she look for you?”

Leah shook her head, “No but she looked for Ian instead.”

Her eyebrows twitched a little, she asked hesitantly, “So was she the reason why you couldn’t get engaged.”

Leah sighed, “Forget about it. In short, we can’t be together.”

Mrs. White went silent. Leah knew what was going on in her head immediately. She narrowed her eyes slowly and yawned as she was drowsy.

Only then did Mrs. white shift her expression, “In that case, forget about it. I didn’t expect Sasha to destroy your relationship. What are you going to do now?”

Leah raised her eyelids sluggishly, “Um, let’s just go with the flow. I’m not in a hurry to get married. I’ll live comfortably even if I stay single forever. All I need is you.” She smiled gently at her after finishing.

Leah looked just like Mrs. White when she was young.

“Okay, my dear. Worthy of the most outstanding man in the world, go have some rest.”

“Goodnight mom.’

“Good night.”

Friday, Leah walked out of White Residence with two suitcases.

Han personally drove here to pick her up

He leaned against the wall and raised an eyebrow when he saw how big her luggage was.

“We are just leaving for five days, why did you bring so much stuff?” He stepped forward to help her move the luggage into his car.

Leah clapped her hands and smiled at him, “Just in case.”

“Can’t you just buy it when we get there?” He said calmly.

Leah shook her head and looked at him, “Mr. Howard should learn to be diligent.”

“Yeah, because I once had a quite diligent wife with me.”

“……”

The two were silent towards each other during the whole trip. After three hours, they finally arrived at Dawnville.

The sun shined brightly at Dawnville even if it was currently autumn, not to mention, the temperature was also quite high for the moment.

Dawnville was famous for its weather feeling like summer regardless of its seasons. Leah had already done the research for this, therefore she prepared lots of summer clothes for this trip.

Their guide took them to the hotel, which was the only 5-star hotel in Dawnville.

Han had previously handed her the documents in the car, “This is the schedule for our trip here.”

She took it since it was quite important to understand the boss’s schedule.

She scanned through the pages when her eyes narrowed abruptly, she frowned a little,” Is going to the ocean view part of the schedule?”

Didn’t he have important matters to attend to?

The ocean view was a major scenic spot in Dawnville. It would emit a faint blue light during nighttime.

Leah was no stranger to this spot. She remembered during her time in high school, there was a description of the ocean view in one of her textbooks. She was completely fascinated by this phenomenon back in the day.

“Well,” Han leaned back on his chair and said, “There will be a firework show in Ocean view after three days.”

Leah was surprised. Since when was he so interested in fireworks?

Han felt that her tone was odd. He glanced at her coldly and said, “The boss’s assistant should not pry into the boss’s businesses.”

“……”

How odd

“As long as you are happy.”

Chapter 173

After Leah managed to move her bags into her room, she changed into an oversized T-shirt and a pair of casual jeans.

Leah preferred wearing casual outfits and would only wear formal attire when attending events with Han.

Once she was done changing, she tied her hair up into a bun and unpacked her belongings till it was half past noon, in which Leah decided to find something to eat for lunch.

She was eager to taste the delicacies prepared by the five-star hotel that they were staying at.

Leah walked out of her room and decided to invite Han for lunch as well after hesitating.

She rang Han’s doorbell, and after a moment, the door opened. Han was wearing a bathrobe and looked somewhat annoyed.

After seeing that it was Leah who rang the doorbell, he raised his brows and asked, “What brings you here?”

Leah’s face was slightly flushed.

Han seemed to have gotten out of a shower not long ago. His hair was still damp and he stood half- naked in front of Leah. The sight of his toned figure was so seductive that Leah was caught staring at it.

Han abruptly let out a chuckle. He placed his hand onto the doorframe and leaned closer to her, “Enjoying the view?” He asked seductively as he furrowed his brows.

Leah gulped and took a few steps back before she would lose her mind. She hurriedly asked, “Mr Howard, I came to ask you if you would like to join me for lunch.”

Han’s eyes then showed a slight hint of regret, “Sorry but I’ve ordered room service earlier as I have work to do.” He shook his head and declined.

“No worries,” Leah nodded and replied, “Goodbye Mr Howard.”

His refusal did not bother Leah much as she knew she might feel uncomfortable eating with Han too.

Although the hotel had room service, Leah wanted to go out and walk around since they had traveled all the way to this city.

Soon, she walked towards the lift and coincidentally bumped into the room service cart. The room attendant pushed the cart out from the lift and slowly walked past Leah.

Leah paused when she smelled a familiar scent.

Isn’t this… Mac & Cheese?!

The thought of it made her laugh. Who eats Mac & Cheese in a five-star hotel for lunch?

It was out of the ordinary to her.

Leah shook her head and took the lift down to the restaurant.

She swiftly walked to the buffet area and picked up a tray.

The wide variety of food choices in the buffet area had stimulated Leah’s hunger as she took portions of roasted pork slices, braised chicken and more.

She even ordered a bowl of tomato soup.

As she was struggling with holding onto her tray and the bowl of soup, a clear and high-pitched sound was heard behind her, “Excuse me!”

Leah wanted to step aside, but it was too late as she was bumped into by a stranger behind her.

It caused the plates and bowl on her tray to fall onto the ground.

“Crash!”

The plates fell onto the floor, letting out a sharp noise.

Leah stared at the dishes on the floor and could only shake her head in regret. Before she could lift her head up, she heard a bawl, “Are you deaf? I told you to get out of the way!”

Leah frowned and looked up, seeing a lady with heavy makeup on.

She was also wearing a dress from the newest Dico September collection, rumored to be 50 thousand dollars.

However, at this moment, her expensive dress had been covered by soup and various kinds of sauces.

“Sorry, I didn’t notice you from behind.” Leah looked down and replied apologetically.

The lady pointed angrily at her nose, “You’re blaming me then? Did you know that this dress costs 50 grand? Now, it’s ruined and you’re blaming it on me!” She scolded.

Leah shook her head and said, “I’m not blaming you. I can pay for your dress.”

“How are you going to pay me back? You look like a beggar and it probably would take you your life to pay me back!” The lady aggressively yelled back.

Their heated argument attracted the attention of bystanders and everyone was gloating at Leah, causing her to frown in annoyance.

How dare this woman look down on me?

Neither did she know, her simple attire and how she hurriedly took portions of food left a poor impression for the crowd.

“Why? You looked like it’s your first time staying at a five-star hotel! Look at you trying to devour all these dishes to yourself like a beggar!” The woman harshly commented.

Leah frowned deeper and replied, “I’ve given you my apology and am willing to pay for the dress. You don’t have to make things worse.”

“Me? Making things worse? I simply do not care about poor beggars like you! Why? Did my words hurt you?” The woman snickered. Her eyeliner-drawn eyes were filled with contempt.

Leah was angry to the brink.

It was her first time meeting someone so unreasonable.

“That’s enough, Yves.” Suddenly, a deep voice was heard from the back of the lady.

Leah looked behind the woman and saw a man in his thirties, walking up to them, “Let her go now.”

Yves, who was looking arrogant in the beginning, now had a child-like attitude upon seeing the man.

“Roman, but this was the dress that you’ve bought me. It’s very important to me!” She pouted.

Roman shrugged helplessly and looked at Leah, “This is my cousin, Yves. She can be a little arrogant at times. I apologize on her behalf for any inconveniences,” he apologized.

Seeing that Roman was planning to let Leah go, she immediately felt disappointed and called out, “Roman!”

Roman frowned lightly and said strictly, “Don’t be stubborn.”

To Yves, his words were similar to a royal decree. She would obey him no matter what.

In response, Yves glared at Leah and reluctantly said, “Get out of here then.”

Even though Leah still felt unjust from the situation, she did not want to argue any further and thanked Roman before leaving.

After the incident, Leah was not in the mood to eat in the restaurant anymore and felt utterly uncomfortable from everyone’s attention on her.

It was better for her to go back to her room and order room service.

As Leah took the lift up and walked past Han’s room, she froze.

She sniffed around and realized the smell of macaroni and cheese was coming out from Han’s room!

Deciding to investigate, she knocked on Han’s door. After a while, the door opened and Han appeared in his casual wear. Confused, he asked, “What now?”

Leah looked behind him as she sniffed.

Weird, it’s not there now. Was I hallucinating?

“Nothing. Just checking in to see if you’ve eaten, Mr Howard,” Leah laughed.

Chapter 174

“Hmm.” Han nodded. As Leah was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly pulled her into his embrace.

Leah, who was caught off guard, stumbled into his embrace.

She quickly came about her senses and tried to push Han away, “What are you doing?” She frowned and asked.

Han hugged her tightly, his eyes showing a hint of longing.

But after a few seconds, he let go of her and answered, “Nothing. You may go now.”

Han reached out his hand and patted her on the shoulders, “Remember to get ready for tomorrow. Don’t disappoint me,” he reminded her.

Leah looked at him confusingly before mumbling out, “Stupid.” She then returned to her room.

The next day, Leah was on standby before Han’s room at seven in the morning.

She looked completely different today when compared to yesterday’s outfit.

She wore a brown knee-length dress, which showcased her pale and slender legs. Her slender long neck and collarbones were also on display as she was wearing a pinafore dress.

She also wore some light and elegant makeup.

When Han walked out, his gaze darkened as he saw Leah’s appearance.

“Mr Howard, is my outfit alright for the occasion?” Leah cheekily asked and blinked at him.

Leah was not as afraid of Han as she was before, since his attitude had substantially improved, even though there were still times where he’d still be cold towards her.

Han’s eyes raked over her body for a while and surprisingly looked away in disgust, “No, it’s too revealing,” he commented.

Leah was speechless and bit her lips as she looked down onto her dress.

“I think it’s alright,” she muttered.

Han stretched out his arm and pulled her to his side, “Then stay by my side throughout,” He told her.

“Why?” Leah looked up puzzled and asked.

“Your dress is too revealing. You’re going to attract unnecessary gaze from others.” Han replied.

… Mr Howard, you’re overthinking. Leah thought to herself.

Before walking into the lift, Han added sternly, “Don’t wear something like this ever again.”

Leah was left speechless as she felt his thoughts were overly childish.

The place where they were going was in the tallest building at Dawnville.

They even had a designated private car that fetched them to the location.

On the way, Han went through the details with Leah once again, “R.W. Co. belongs to Roman Walker now. You’ve read all about his information and his favorite jewelry styles, right?”

Leah nodded back.

Han then asked, “So how confident are you in this meeting?”

Leah was taken aback by Han’s question. Although she felt confident before the meeting, she nervously responded, “Uh… What if the deal doesn’t go well, Mr Howard?”

“That’s all to it then,” Han simply replied.

“What?” Leah could not believe what she heard.

“If it doesn’t go well, we’ll just convince them with cash,” he uttered.

Leah rolled her eyes upon his apathetic response.

After some time, they arrived at the building and an assistant guided them into the building.

Roman Walker, the president of R.W. Co., was standing in front of the entrance waiting for their arrival.

As of now, R.W. Co. was the biggest jewelry company in the country. However, its scale paled in comparison with the Howard Group, which was well-known all over the globe.

“Welcome to R.W. Co., Mr Howard!” A gentle voice was heard.

Leah was surprised when she saw Roman smiling at them.

“It’s you,” Leah called out.

Roman’s gaze moved from Han to Leah, “Oh, seems like the world is small. I wasn’t able to catch your name that day. So you’re Mr Howard’s assistant.” His smile grew wider and greeted Leah.

Leah nodded and reached out her hand, “Nice to meet you, Mr Walker. I’m Sarah White,” she introduced herself.

“Roman Walker. It’s a pleasure meeting you,” He shook her hand and replied.

Seeing their interaction, Han perked his brows, “You know each other?” He asked.

Roman smiled and explained, “There was a misunderstanding with Ms White when we first met, but worry not, it’s resolved now.”

Han glared at Leah after hearing Roman’s answer and she pretended to not notice it.

Soon after, Roman brought Han and Leah into the lift and the three of them walked toward the conference room.

Once they walked out of the lift, a bright voice chirped, “Roman!”

It’s this voice again…

Leah turned around with a blank face and met Yves.

She saw Yves’ facial expression instantly turned into disappointment.

“Why is she here again?!” Yves pointed at Leah and questioned Roman.

She then pointed out Leah’s outfit, “Why are you wearing such revealing clothes? Do you plan on seducing Roman?” Her eyes were filled with hatred as she asked.

“Yves! Stop with this nonsense!” Roman’s expression changed and scolded, “This is Ms White, who is Mr Howard’s assistant.”

Yves didn’t know who Han was, let alone Leah.

She pouted and replied, “She’s a mere assistant! Roman, she didn’t apologize for making a mess on my dress yesterday!”

She shook Roman’s arm and acted like a spoiled child.

If someone else was making such a fuss, Han would have been furious.

However, Roman was quite patient towards her and consoled, “It’s already in the past. I have a meeting with Mr Howard right now. Go and wait in my office in the meantime.”

“I don’t want to!” Yves pouted and glared arrogantly. She rolled her eyes and pointed at Leah, “I’m not going till she apologizes to me! If not, don’t even think about being partners with our company!” She warned.

In Yves’ eyes, Roman was the most powerful person in the world.

His jewelry company was second to none in the entire nation. Local and overseas businesses would do anything to strike a deal with him.

So naturally, she thought they were as desperate as the others too and an apology was simply but a small favor to ask for.

“Yves, stop messing around,” Roman started frowning.

“I’m not joking! If she doesn’t apologize, I’m not allowing them to talk with you!” Yves raised her brows as she argued.

Leah’s face gradually turned gloomy, as Han frowned.

Leah noticed Han’s face and sighed, “Very well then.” She did not want to cause any fuss that could annoy both parties.

Besides, she would have to bear the blame if they were unable to strike a deal.

When Leah decided to apologize, she felt a pat on her shoulder.

She lifted her head up and was met with Han’s piercing gaze.

She felt a chill run down her spine as she knew that his expression meant someone could be in trouble.

Han looked up and uttered, “She’s my partner. I won’t let her apologize.”

Chapter 175

Leah looked up at Han surprised.

She had always been the humble one and apologizing.

However, Han actually stopped her this time.

She also was reminded about the time when Han apologized to Shawn for her sake.

He was willing to apologize on her behalf but forbid her to apologize to somebody else.

Yves stared daggers at Han. She felt disgusted that an attractive man like Han would protect Leah.

Yves clinged onto Roman’s arm and complained, “Look at them, Roman! They’re teaming up to bully me!”

“Yves, if you insist on throwing a tantrum, I’ll have to send you back!” Roman scolded Yves, “This man here is the president of the Howard Group. He’s here to discuss a deal with me. So apologize to Mr Howard now!”

Yves’ eyes widened up upon listening to Roman’s words.

The Howard Group? You mean, the one and only Howard Group of Pasteria?

Yves’ face turned pale in an instant.

Although she had not seen Han in person, she already knew about his merciless ways when it came down to business.

She knew this was someone she had to avoid being on the wrong side.

Yves bit her lips and apologized unwillingly, “I’m sorry, Mr Howard. I was wrong.”

Han didn’t bother to take a glance at her.

He tilted his head towards Leah and ordered, “Apologize to her.”

Yves’ face twitched as she gripped her hands tightly. She looked at Roman with red teary eyes.

Roman nodded at her.

They could not afford to be on Han’s bad side. If he was displeased in any way, the Walker family would face serious consequences.

Tears started to build up in Yves’ eyes. She could not understand why Roman, who would always protect her, was not on her side this time.

She forced her apology out and mumbled, “I-I’m sorry, Ms White.”

Leah wasn’t someone who would make things difficult for others and seeing that she had apologized, she decided to forgive her.

Once Yves was done apologizing, she hurriedly ran away. Meanwhile, Han and Leah followed Roman into the conference room.

They spent the entire afternoon negotiating and managed to sign the deal with R. W. Co.

As they came to the end of their meeting, Han muttered out, “There is one more condition I would like to add.”

Since the meeting had been pleasant and the proposal Han gave was incredibly attractive, Roman had no reason to refuse, “Of course, Mr Howard.”

Han knocked on the meeting table for a moment and said, “Any jewelry that is designed by her, whether it’s imported or exported, your company is to give her 20% of the profit.”

He lifted his chin and pointed to Leah as he explained.

Leah was taken aback by his condition.

Her jewelry had been given a sky-high price in accordance with recent jewelry prices. So even if it was a small pendant, it would have cost millions of dollars, of which the profit was equally attractive.

20% of the profit was obviously not a small number.

This deal would not have worked out if it was someone else doing the negotiations.

Since it was Han who stated this condition, Roman could only smile and agree, “Of course, that’s not a problem.”

Compared to the Howard Group’s interest and profit, giving away 20% of the profit was insignificant to him.

However, Roman did not expect Han to take the initiative to ask for something.

It was clear that this woman was important to him.

Roman stared at Leah thoughtfully.

As the three of them walked out of the room, Roman proposed to Han and Leah, “I will be hosting a banquet later on. Won’t you both join us?”

It was typical for both parties to have a meal together once a deal had been striked.

Leah nodded, but Han refused, “No, thank you. We still have things to attend to.”

Leah glanced at him confusingly, as she did not recall having any events after the meeting.

When Roman heard it, he smiled and said, “Well, remember to see the ocean while you’re in Dawnville then. The ocean looks best at 9 to 2 in the evening.”

Leah then remembered vaguely that visiting Ocean View was also in Han’s schedule. She nodded in response, “We will, thank you.”

As they walked out of the office, Roman asked again, “Where will you be going next, Mr Howard? Would you like me to fetch you there?”

“No need,” Han immediately refused and they bid farewell to Roman.

After Roman left, Leah then asked, “There’s nothing on your schedule after the meeting. What were you planning to do?”

“I booked a table for us at a restaurant.” Han looked down at her, his face had become relaxed and calm.

Leah felt bewildered as she was not informed about the arrangement.

However, Han was someone who would do something as he pleases. It was only natural for her to not be informed.

Han stopped a cab and dragged Leah with him into the car, “Bring us to Ocean View,” he told the driver and Leah was taken by surprise.

The cab soon arrived at Ocean View and the two of them got off the cab. Leah looked around and realized the huge crowd at the seaside. Everyone was wearing their swimsuits and playing on the beach, seemingly relieved of stress.

The sight of the seaside was relaxing for Leah.

When she noticed Han and herself were the only ones wearing formal attire, she chuckled, “Mr Howard, it seems like we’re quite hasty with this trip. Is our attire really suitable for visiting Ocean View?”

Han glanced at her and replied, “It’s fine, we’re here for a meal.”

Once he finished talking, he took the lead and walked down.

There was a road built next to the beach, and mountains were right next to the road too. There was a restaurant built halfway up the mountain, and there was a large French window on the side that was facing the sea.

So if one was to eat here, they could also have a nice view at the sea.

It was already seven o’clock in the evening. It was two hours away from seeing the famous scenery of Ocean View, which was when faint blue lights would emit from the ocean as the tide rises. It should happen once they were done with their meal.

The both of them entered the restaurant and Han had already made a reservation. It was close to the floor-to-ceiling window, which was an ideal spot.

“Isn’t it hard to get a reservation here?” Leah whispered as they sat down.

Han passed her the menu without answering.

He did not want Leah to know that he made the reservation five days in advance.

Leah then quickly ordered a few dishes.

As they were waiting for the dishes, a waiter suddenly walked towards Leah with a violin.

“Congratulations! You have been chosen as our lucky customer of the day! You can get your meal for free as long as you play the violin on our center stage!” The waiter announced happily.
