Ch. 211..215: Begging For A Reconciliation Chapter 211-215

Chapter 211

The elevator doors opened on the 12tli floor. Someone walked inside the elevator. It was difficult not to notice the person since Leah and Ron were alone in the narrow space.

Leah looked up and saw Han and his cold eyes.

She was stunned and tried to look away.

Han’s hands trembled slightly, he was shocked that Leah could not even dare look at him now.

Water was dripping down Leah’s body. Han just realized both Ron and Leah were soaking wet. He frowned and asked. “How did it happen?”

Leah did not expect Han to speak to her. Ron also looked at Han cautiously. He stood in front of Leah to protect her.

Han pursed his lips and wondered when did Leah need a man’s protection.

“I fell into the fountain accidentally,” Leah said after turning her head away.

“Accidentally?” Han turned to look at Ron and chuckled. He said with irony. “Why? Did he fail to protect you?”

Leah stared at Han angrily. She said, “This has nothing to do with Ron!”

“Ron and Ian. The two brothers of the Sanders family are both serving you. You are really charming, Ms. White.” Han said in a weird tone while chuckling.

Leah was frowning even more.

“You don’t need to care about her.” Ron retorted. “It’s better than Mr. Howard at least. You had amnesia and even beat her.”

Han had a gloomy expression. He was indeed responsible for Leah’s injury which got her admitted to the hospital.

Before Han could say anything, the elevator doors opened.

Molly was standing there. Wlien she saw' both Han and Leah inside the elevator, she cautiously went up to Han and wrapped her hands around his arm.

“Han, where did you go? I’ve been looking for you.” Molly pouted and said in a coquettish tone.

Han finally averted his gaze from Leah. He said uncomfortably, “I went downstairs to buy a pack of cigarettes.”

He was not a person who smokes often. He could control his urge to smoke with his incredible self- control. Han went downstairs because he saw' Shawm following behind Leah and was worried that he might harm her. However, Leah did not know7, about that, and Han did not plan on telling her.

Han and Molly were blocking the way. Leah said. “Excuse me.”

Han looked at Leah unconsciously. Her eyes were cold. She did not even look at him and Molly. Molly acting intimately towards him did not faze her at all. It was like they were strangers.

Wlien he realized that, he felt very upset. The people who constantly appear before him including Ron and Ian made him w’ant to restore his memory even more.

He did not believe what Molly said. He wanted to know7 what happened between that woman and him which caused her to hate him so much.

Leah stayed in the hospital for another two days. Her readings had been stable for the past two days except for one tiling, the child in her stomach.

Having a baby in her stomach was a bombshell to Leah. She felt even more worried when she found out Shawm wras also receiving treatment in the same hospital. She was afraid that the Ford family would force her to give birth to the child if they found out about it.

On the third day. Leah finally decided to get an abortion.

With Ian canceling his engagement with her and transferring the company’s shares to her as compensation, she longer planned to get married let alone give birth to a child.

Regardless, this was still a tough decision to make for Leah. However, she had no choice but to do it. She could not have Shawm’s child.

Leah held the report in her hands. She was filled with many different emotions.

“You have been discharged. What are you thinking about?” Ron reached out and waved in front of Leah’s face.

Leah snapped out of her daze and forced a smile, “It’s nothing.”

Ron asked her jokingly, “You seemed like you have a lot on your mind recently. What’s wrong? Are you terminally ill and dare not tell me?”

Leah was helpless and shook her head, “Are you mad? You are the first person I’ll tell if I’m terminally ill.”

“Is that so?” Ron laughed with her and reached out to pinch her cheeks. He said. “If you are terminally ill, I will find the best doctor in the world to treat you.”

Leah shook Ron’s hand off and took it as a joke.

Ron said, “You lost a lot of w7eight after this. You shouldn't be sulking. Wlien I’m done with my work, I’ll bring you somewhere.”

“Really? Where to?” Leah was looking forward to it a little.

Ron smiled and said, “It’s a secret.”

After chatting with Ron. Leah was feeling more relieved.

Ron was quite busy recently.

He just became the boss of the gang. There were many underlings who were not happy with him. He was busy trying to convince them all to his side.

Even so, he still came to pick up Leah and help her.

After he left the hospital, he received a call from his underling. “Boss, someone is causing trouble at our territory in West Street. They are even calling you out.”

“Wait for me. I’ll be there soon.” Ron was saying without expression, but his gaze was furious.

Leah knew he was leaving, so she waved to him and said, “Go. I can get a taxi home on my own.”

Ron frowned and asked her, “Can you do it?”

Leah pointed at herself before pointing at Ron and said, “I am 25 years old. You are 24 years old. You are even younger than me. Do you think I can’t even get a taxi home?”

Chapter 212

Ron flicked his finger on Leah’s forehead and got her to roll her eyes.

“Even if you are older, you are still a child to me.” Ron looked at her with a grin.

It was embarrassing for a 25-year-old woman to be called a child.

Leah blushed and pushed Ron towards his car. She said. “Go. I’ll get a taxi home. Goodbye.”

Ron wanted to send her back, but he had something urgent to do. He had no choice but to rush there.

He scolded quietly and vowed to punish the troublemakers.

Leah watched as Ron drove away. She breathed a sigh of relief and stopped smiling.

She was afraid Ron would find out that she was pregnant and wanted to get an abortion. Then he would think she was a vulgar woman.

Leah sighed and hailed a taxi.

A taxi stopped in front of her. and the driver asked. “Where are you heading to, Miss?”

Leah was determined and clenched her fists. Before the driver lost his patience. Leah finally replied in a coarse voice. “To the Obstetrics and Gynaecology hospital in the city centre.”

The driver could not help but take a glance at his passenger. There were only two types of people who would want to go there. To get a pregnancy examination or get an abortion. When the driver saw Leah’s expression, he could easily guess what she wanted to do.

Before dropping her off, the driver said, “Miss, everything will be fine. Cheer up. Don’t do something that you’ll regret.”

Leah was stunned. She hesitated after hearing the driver’s words. However, she was firm in her decision when she remembered the child was Shawn’s.

The driver could not focus on the road when he was on his way back. He remembered how he asked his wife to get an abortion because he was poor. When his wife had a second child, she died from obstructed labour. He was sad when he thought about it.

The driver was deep in thought and did not see the Bentley heading towards him. When he finally realized, he had already hit the car. He was so scared because he had hit a Bentley. It was a car he could not afford to compensate for.

The driver got out of his car with his feet trembling.

Han was in a bad mood today. Although he avoided the accident because of his driving skills, he still felt annoyed.

Han got down and saw the terrified man.

“Sir, I’m very sorry. I didn’t do it on purpose. Are you fine?” The driver was sweating. When he saw Han’s face, his face went pale.

Han frowned. He was very impatient and asked the driver. “Who sent you?”

The driver was stunned, “What?”

“Don’t tell me this was all an accident.”

The driver did not understand Han, “This... is really an accident.”

Han chuckled, “I’ll send you to the police station if you don’t tell me honestly.”

The driver was confused. He wondered why the man was trying to send him to the police station.

“Sir, I know I almost hit you. but you have to be reasonable. I did not cause any damage. Why do you need to send me to the police station? Even if you send me there, I’m innocent!” The driver was not afraid because he did nothing wrong.

Han lost his patience. He did not believe the man. Since it was not a peak period, there was no reason for the driver to drive towards him if he was not trying to cause an accident deliberately.

Ben saw the terrified driver and thought he was not pretending. He wondered if they really misunderstood him.

“Mr. Howard, perhaps it was really a misunderstanding,” said Ben cautiously.

“A misunderstanding?” Said Han in a low voice.

Ben gulped. He felt Han was scarier after he suffered from amnesia. Han was behaving like an emotionless machine.

Han thought about it and figured there was nothing wrong about checking it if it really was a misunderstanding.

He looked towards Ben and said, “Go on.”

Ben ignored the driver and started to investigate the whole car.

It was a very normal taxi, and there was nothing suspicious inside. As Ben was trying to get out of the taxi, he caught a glimpse of something shiny. He picked it up and realized it was an earring.

“Mr. Howard. I found this in the car.” Ben gave the earring to Han.

Han took it and remembered it was Leah’s earring. He saw it when she was in the hospital. It was not an earring designed by her.

Han pursed his lips and looked at the driver. He asked, “What is this?” He was ready to hurt the driver if he harmed Leah.

The driver saw it and was confused as well, “Why is there an earring in my car... Oh! I remember! I think this belongs to the passenger I just sent to the Obstetrics and Gynaecology hospital.

Chapter 213

Han was very sure that the earring he picked up belonged to Leah, but he was not sure about Leah’s relationship with this man.

After hearing what he said, he frowned and asked, “the Obstetrics and Gynaecology hospital?”

s

The driver had already forgotten how terrifying Han was. He started to explain. “I took the passenger to the hospital. I saw her expression and guessed she went there to get an abortion. I gave her a few words of advice. On my way back, I remember my wife who died from obstructed labor. That was why I almost hit you..

The driver kept talking, but Han only heard the word “abortion”. He walked up to the driver and grabbed the driver’s shoulder, “What did you say?”

The driver was in pain. He replied. "Did I say something wrong?”

“What did you say she went to do?”

The driver answered, “To... To get an abortion.”

Han kicked his own car hard and dented it.

The driver gulped. The car that he was so afraid of scratching had been kicked viciously. He thought howr nice it would be to be rich.

Ben was shocked by Han’s actions as well. He did not know' why Han was so angry, “Mr. Howard, What’s wrong?”

Han looked at Ben and suppressed his anger. He was furious when he found out Leah was going to get an abortion on their child.

He wondered if she hated him so much and w’anted to get an abortion as soon as possible.

“Sign the contract for me,” Han said to Ben.

Ben was stunned. He was supposed to sign a very important document with Han today. If he got the deal done, the fate of Pasteria would lie in Han’s hands.

Han had been waiting a long time for this day. yet he asked Ben to sign the contract on such an important day.

“What about you. Mr. Howard?” Ben asked cautiously.

Han glared at him. It sent chills down Ben's spine. He could only nod and not ask anything else.

Han drove at a speed of 200 miles per hour to the hospital. He rushed into the hospital and asked a few’ nurses before finding Leah on the bench with a report in her hand.

Han walked towards her angrily.

Leah was in a dilemma. She was feeling more nervous as time went by. When she thought about losing her own child, it felt pa infill.

Then, Leah heard some familiar footsteps. She looked up and saw Han walking towards her furiously.

For some reason, Leah was frightened by Han’s expression. She even felt like escaping. Her body acted before her mind, and Leah started running.

However, he overestimated herself and underestimated Han. Han caught up to her and grabbed hold of her neck.

“Why are you running?” Han gave her a cold stare.

Before Han arrived, he was filled with rage, he even thought he would beat this woman when he saw’ her. However, when she was standing before him, he could not even scold her when he looked at her face that was w’eirdly familiar. Han wondered wdiat this woman did to charm him.

Leah dared not look into Han’s eyes. She did not knowr why she was afraid of him at this moment. She struggled and said, “Let go of me.”

“Don’t run.” Han ordered.

“I won’t.” Said Leah helplessly.

Han trusted her and let go of her hand. Leah finally escaped from his grasp.

Leah asked Han, “Why are you here?”

“What about you?”

Leah found it funny, “Isn’t it obvious? I’m here to get an abortion. What about you, Mr. Howard? Do you have a weird fetish or something?”

Han ignored her and said, “You can’t get an abortion.”

Leah knew how dominant Han was. She did not expect him to still be so dominant after he had amnesia and saw’ her as a gold digger.

Leah stared at Han and asked reluctantly, “Han, who are you to control me?”

“Two million dollars.” Han said, “If you want the money, you can’t get an abortion.”

Leah was baffled that Han used the money to threaten her. If he did not want to pay her, she knew Han would win against her in a lawsuit even if she took him to court.

Only the powerful had a right to speak in front of the law’, but Leah wondered what the point of Han doing that was.

Leah chuckled and looked at Han. “Does Mr. Howard want me to give birth to this child instead? A child that no one wants in this world. Who will raise him? Are you going to raise him for me, Mr. Howard?”

She said that purposely to instigate Han. Someone as proud as Han would never do something as foolish as raising someone else’s child even if he had amnesia. It was something that challenged his dignity.

Surprisingly, Han nodded and said firmly, “Give birth to the child. I’ll raise him.”

Han thought it was only right to raise his own child.

What he said shocked Leah. She wondered if he had gone mad.

Chapter 214

Leah took a deep breath and suppressed her shock. Han asking her to give birth to the child was a huge blow. She needed some time.

After a while, Leah shook her head. She said seriously, “I don’t need you to raise him.”

Han stared at Leah. "Do you hate this child so much?”

Leah took a glance at Han and found his reaction weird. She asked. “That’s none of your business.”

Han clenched his fists and said, “How is that none of my business when the child is ours?”

Leah stared at Han unbelievably. What he said shocked her even more than when Han said he would raise the child for her.

“You are mistaken. This child is not yours.” Leah shook her head and said, “I think you have misunderstood. You don't need to raise this child.”

Han frowned. He was sure that the child was his, but he wondered why Leah would say otherwise. The shock she showed was genuine as well. Han thought she lied to him, so it would reduce his burden.

When he realized that, Han grabbed Leah’s hand and pulled her outside.

“What are you doing? I’ve waited a long time here. Don't pull me!” Leah struggled and tried to escape.

Han stared at her coldly and said, “You are bearing the Howard family’s child. You can’t decide whether to get an abortion or not.”

“The child is mine too. I have a right to do it.”

“If you get an abortion, you won’t receive a single cent.”

“Also, I remember White Group has a new project with Roman.” Han said.

It was a statement from Han, but it sounded like a threat to Leah.

She was angry and said, “Han. don’t go overboard.”

“I won't do anything to you as long as the child is safe.”

Leah stared at her and finally gave in. “Fine, I promise. However, the child has to be with me even after I gave birth to him.

Han already had Molly and Charlotte. With Molly’s personality, if Han brought the child back, he would be tortured to death sooner or later.

Leah did not want to see any tragedy happening. Even if she did not look forward to this child's arrival, he was still her child, nonetheless.

Han frowned and let go of her.

He nodded and said, “Fine.”

They made a deal. Han left after saying a few words to Leah.

Leah watched him leave and looked at her stomach helplessly. She still could not decide her own fate.

Han returned to the Howard residence after that. The mansion was as huge as a palace, but it was quiet. Han had no memory of the place. He felt like a stranger there.

Since Molly did not many him, she did not live there.

Han entered the mansion and gave his coat to the servant.

“Mi Howard. Do you want to have dinner after taking a bath?”

“Yes.”

Han looked tiled. He went upstairs into his room. Everything in Linkville apart from those related to Leah was unfamiliar to him.

After dinner, Han wanted to go upstairs and call Ben to ask about the contract today.

When he passed by the study, he saw a small room beside it. The door was tightly shut, and there was a lock on the door.

Although Han returned to Linkville for more than 2 weeks, he seldom stayed in the mansion. That was why he almost never noticed this locked room beside the study. However, he noticed it today.

When the maid brought his milk, Han pointed at the room and asked her, “What is this room?”

The maid hesitated, “Well... We don’t know. You never let any one of us enter this room. We weren’t even allowed to clean it.”

Han frowned slightly. His intuition told him that he placed such an order because this room was taboo to him. Perhaps it might be able to help restore his memory.

“Sure.” Han nodded. He found a key on the nightstand of his room that matched the lock.

Han took the key and stood in front of the door. For some reason, he wanted to open the door, but he felt conflicted. He was never a rational person. He shook his conflicted feelings away and opened the door.

Han opened the door and was shocked by what was inside the room. Even if he was prepared, he could not help but show liis surprise.

The room was a well-equipped nursery. It had everything from a baby crib to diapers.

Besides that, there was also clothing for a baby boy and a baby girl. Han looked around and saw clothes for toddlers to five-year- olds.

The nursery was very quiet, but Han was shocked deep inside.

He wondered why there was a nursery in the Howard family’s mansion.

It was not for Charlotte since the frame did not have a photo of the baby.

Han wondered whom this nursery was made for. Suddenly, an image flashed through his brain.

In a pool of blood, an icy cold hand grabbed him, and someone was begging him beside liis ears, “Save... our child.”

Chapter 215

Han experienced an excruciating headache.

He held his head and closed his eyes. Then, his face went pale, and he collapsed on the floor.

The maid was shocked and called an ambulance.

Han was sent to the hospital. Molly and Ben were the first people to arrive.

When the doctor came out of the emergency room. Molly asked the doctor nervously, “Doctor, is Han all right?”

The doctor shook his head and said, “It’s nothing major. He suffered trauma to the head previously. He passed out due to a post- traumatic stress reaction. However, it’s a good tiling because it proved his body was protecting him from brain overload.”

Although Molly did not understand most of it, she still breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Han was fine. “That’s good to hear.”

“Just let him rest in the next few days. Don’t tiy to dig further into his memories. He seems to be in a bad condition."’ The doctor left after saying that.

Molly frowned and wondered what the doctor meant by digging further into liis memories. She remembered Han had been progressing well in recovering his memories under the watch of the doctor. The doctor was afraid that his brain might not be able to handle too much stress and used the safest treatment method. It was slow, but it would not cause any harm to him.

Molly was also accompanying him all the time, so she wondered why he would suddenly tiy to find out more about liis own memories.

Molly looked at Ben and asked him directly, “What was Han doing recently? Did he meet anyone?”

When Ben heard her question, he immediately recalled Han rushing to the Obstetrics and Gynaecology hospital during the morning. There was no doubt about whom Han was meeting. However, he could not tell Molly about it.

Ben had a poker face on and said sincerely, “Mr. Howard has been working in the office recently. He did not meet anyone.” He was afraid that Molly would doubt him, so he added. “Perhaps he had been working too much recently. That is why Mr. Howard is exhausted.”

Molly looked at Ben suspiciously, but she could not find anything wrong behind Ben’s gentle smile.

Before Molly could ask more questions, Han was pushed out of the emergency room.

“Han!” Molly rushed towards him and locked eyes with him. For some reason, she felt guilty suddenly.

Han stared at her for a minute before averting liis gaze. Molly breathed a sigh of relief and asked him cautiously, “Han. do you remember something?”

Han said, “Is there something I should remember?”

Molly shook her head and said, “No, the doctor said you suffered from brain overload. I thought your memory had been restored.

I was only feeling happy for you.”

“Is that so?” Han stared at Molly and asked, “Do you really feel happy for me?”

Molly gasped and said, “Of course.”

Han looked away and said, “I’m exhausted. I want to rest.”

Molly stood up and said, “Han, rest well. We won’t disturb you anymore.”

Then, she pulled Ben away, and they left the ward.

After they left, Han opened his eyes and stared at the tree outside. However, he had something else on his mind.

After Molly left the hospital, she did not go home but called a person instead to set up a meeting at a cafe.

At the cafe, a man wearing a cap and jeans was waiting for her.

Molly walked over and asked, “How is it? Did you find anything?”

Molly called her at the hospital to ask him to investigate Han’s recent activities.

This man was a private detective working for the Lamere family. He took out a stack of photos and said to Molly, “I don’t disappoint my clients.”

Molly nodded and said, “Put it on my father’s tab.”

The man showed Molly a stack of photos. He whispered, “Mr. Howard went to see that woman at the Obstetrics and Gynaecology hospital.”

“Obstetrics and Gynaecology hospital?” Molly frowned. She had a bad feeling about it.

“Yes. This woman was pregnant and went to get an abortion. However. Mr. Howard stopped her.” The private detective gloated. He continued and spoke with irony, “Mr. Howard told the woman that he would raise the child and admitted that the child was his.”

Molly’s expression turned gloomy. She grabbed the stack of photos and crumpled them.

She was thinking about when Han and Leah got together again. Leah was even pregnant with Han’s child. In Molly’s opinion, Leah was not worthy of having Han’s child. She wondered if it happened during Dawnville when Han lost liis memory.

The private detective looked at Molly with a grin and said. “Ms. Lamere. do you want me to find someone to..."’ He made a cross on liis own stomach.

Molly had a sinister expression. Later, she shook her head and said, “No.”

If she purposely caused a miscarriage, Han would find out that she was the culprit. She wanted to cause Leah to have a miscarriage on her own.

Han left the hospital after a day. The first tiling he did after getting discharged was give Ben a “difficult” task.

Ben thought he misheard him when he got the task. He said, “Mr. Howard, are you sure you want to do this?
