Ch. 386..390: Begging For A Reconciliation Chapter 386-390

Chapter 386 The Mistress Who Ruined the Engagement

"I helped you to resolve your country's crisis so many times, and I even gave you ten billion dollars recently. I'm supposed to marry Anna in the future; it's not appropriate to say that I'm nothing without you."

"In my opinion, you merely had some power, but you're the one relying on me."

Han pursed his lips and smiled sarcastically, "Anna doesn't complain to me at all, so it's inappropriate for you to reprimand me in her place."

He wanted to take advantage of Owen for a little while longer, but since the time had arrived, he did not care to put on an act anymore.

Owen's eyes widened; he was shocked as this was the first time Han was talking back to him.

Soon, Owen glared at him murderously, and he snorted, "Ethan! How dare you talk like this to me? I'll cancel your engagement with Anna at this rate!"

"Without our protection, you are nothing!"

Anna panicked at the door; she wanted to go inside, but the maid stopped her. "Miss, you shouldn't go in; Mr. Lancaster is angry now!"

She could only wait anxiously outside; she was drooling over him; she muttered, "I'll never let my dad cancel our engagement..."

Owen's words were exactly what Han wanted, and he instantly agreed to them. "Okay, let's call it off. I don't like to be falsely accused."

"If you really looked into it, you would know that I was preparing to propose to her."

He looked at Owen meaningfully and smirked. "I'll take my leave now."

Owen shouted, "Are you really going against me?"

"Even if I really misunderstood your feelings for Nana, is it necessary to make such a fuss?"

He actually did not want to lose Han; he was one of his biggest money sources.

Anna saw that he was serious, and she quickly dashed into the room.

She grabbed on to Han's arms and said hurriedly, "Ethan, sorry... Please don't put my dad's words to your heart... It's his fault for misunderstanding you... Please don't be angry anymore."

Anna never thought that he was going to propose to her, but now the engagement has been called off out of the blue.

I can't accept it!

Han shook her hand away in disgust, and he said coldly, "Since the two of you have never really respected me, there is no need for us to get married."

He did not let the two of them explain themselves; he strode away as if he really hated the two of them.

Anna chased after him, and she suddenly fell to the ground in despair. She bit her lips, and her body was trembling in anger and sadness.

"Nana, don't be sad; I have always disliked him, now..." Owen stepped forward to comfort her.

"E…Enough! You finally ruined my marriage as you wished! Are you happy that Ethan doesn't want me? He was already planning to propose to me. Why are you always targeting him?" Anna screamed insanely.

She was crying nonstop as her father ruined her marriage.

Owen's heart hurt seeing her like this; he regretted his words, and he said, "Nana, stop crying. I'll get him back for you, alright?"

"I'll call him right away..." He made several phone calls in a row, but Han declined every one of them.

Anna was completely lost; she was afraid of losing him.

She took out her mobile phone tremblingly and hurriedly called him; she did not seem like a graceful princess at the moment.

Han actually picked up her phone, and he asked, "What do you want?"

His voice was icy and indifferent, but she did not have the time to be sad. She was happy enough for

him to pick up her phone; she said, "Ethan, please don't leave me... I disagree with my dad… We will still be getting married, right?" She begged him and hoped that he would change his mind.

He was getting impatient, and he snorted, "If you don't make the announcement today, I'll do it myself tomorrow."

After hanging up the phone, he blacklisted Anna and Owen on his phone.

After finishing everything, he returned to the car. Ben smiled and said, "Boss, finally you have the chance to ruin Owen and Anna's relationship."

It's a huge success for their plan!

Han smiled mockingly, "Well, how's the next plan?"

Ben started the car engine and said respectfully, "Everything is ready except..."

Leah was bored in the hospital, so she kept scrolling through Twitter.

Suddenly, she saw her own name in the hot searches.

"Sarah seduces the fiancée of the princess from Fetriybia; they broke up because of her."

"It's this b*tch again! Why is she always trending toward seducing men?"

"Can she just die? She's so annoying! How dare she seduce the princess's fiancé? Is she not afraid of karma?"

"It was rumored that the explosion on West Street was related to her. She was having an affair with Mr. Howard back then, and coincidentally, she was being kidnapped."

"I heard that Hendrik saved her? Oh my god! Why is the mysterious Mr. Hendrik attracted to her?"

"Sarah is a mistress!"

"Hendrik likes Sarah!"

She was literally in every hot search.

Her eyes reddened seeing their unreasonable accusations and curses.

I'm a good citizen; why is everyone spreading rumours and insulting me?

They would not only affect her life and the reputation of Dream Designs, but the workers in her studio might be harmed too.

She just wanted to rely on her own ability to grow her studio, but things fell apart after they got better for a while.

"Sarah is our patient, right? It's so interesting to see her... Ha, ha."

There were nurses who deliberately talked loudly outside the ward.

Hendrik's bodyguards yelled at them, "F*ck off!" "Are you two going against Mr. Hendrik?"

The nurse hurried away.

She tried to compose herself and hold back her tears. But she lost it; she hugged her knees and started crying.

She was trembling in the ward; she felt that it was her against the world.

Han immediately rushed to the hospital with Hendrik when the rumor spread.

He pushed open her ward door and saw her hugging herself pitifully. His heart ached, and he quickly carried her up.

"Don't worry, all of the negative posts and comments will be removed soon. I'll bring you out of the hospital."

He heard people scolding her when he was walking to her ward.

She leaned against his warm chest, and she let him carry her away.

Why is my life so hard?

Chapter 387 Absurd Thought

Leah was carried away by Hendrik.

She snuck inside his arms, and she tried to avoid people seeing her. Her tears soaked his clothes.

The familiar body fragrance and chest made her subconsciously mutter, "Han..."

She was stunned when she said his name.

Her tears stopped instantly, and her heart was filled with despair.

Why did I call out his name when I was helpless? How could I mistake Hendrik for him?

They are two different individuals; it's just that Hendrik's embrace feels familiar to him.

Han tightened his grip, and his heart was throbbing hard. He looked at her in his mask, and he said, "Are you calling another man when you're in my arms?"

She apologized in a panic, and she forcibly suppressed all her sadness. "Sorry, I'm just unhappy that I'm treated as a mistress between Han and Anna when I did nothing at all…"

From the beginning until now, Han has only wanted to take revenge on her. There was no seduction included.

His heart softened seeing how helpless she was. He said softly, "Let's go to my place."

Han brought her back to Hendrik's villa.

He put her on the bed, and seeing how sad she was, he asked with a frown, "Do you want me to bring your daughter over?"

"No, she can stay with Han now." She was alert when he talked about Carlotta.

She knew that Hendrik was good to her, but she believed that Han could protect Carlotta well.

Han saw that she trusted Han more than Hendrik; his mood had lightened up.

"Alright, it's almost noon; you should take a break and have lunch later."

After Hendrik left the room, she suddenly jumped.

Wait! The public was all targeting me now; my phone should have rung countless times!

She called Serena and asked, "Serena, are you all alright? How's the studio?"

"We're good. The protective net developed by Mr.Harper is extremely useful now; no one can get to us at all."

"We also called every client to apologize for the inconvenience, and all of them believed in you."

Leah was relieved to hear it, and she said, "Please be careful recently, and don't let strangers in our

studio. Just stay in the studio to finish our orders."

She was nagging for a long time; Serena pretended to be impatient and interrupted her. "Okay! Let's talk about other things!"

"Are you choosing your new love or your old love?"

She knew that Serena was referring to Hendrik and Han; she frowned and said, "What are you saying? They don't like me at all."

Hendrik and Han, she suspected both of them had ulterior motives in approaching her.

Serena was dissatisfied with her answer and wanted to push her; she asked, "Are you not giving Hendrik a chance? What about Han? Since he's single again and you like him, you should get back with him."

They're still in love even though they hurt each other a lot; it will be good for her to get back with Han.

A month ago, she would never agree for Leah to get back with Han.

But along the way, she found out that Han actually loved Sarah and did a lot for her behind her back.

She should have realized it sooner, especially back when Han was trying to cover Alfred's death.

Serena had spoken out the truth; she blushed and said in a high-pitched voice, "Who says that I like him?"

She yelled and hung up the phone.

She wanted to get out of bed and move around, but just as she turned around, she fell into a warm embrace.

She did not know when Hendrik came in; he was bending down and staring at her, and she bumped into his arms the moment she turned around.

She was so nervous that she almost dropped her phone. "When are you back?

Did he hear the conversation? Please don't!

Hendrik sat down on her bedside and flirtatiously reduced the distance between them, and he asked, "Who do you like?"

"Han or me?" His voice is deep and sexy.

Her face turned pale, and her palms were sweaty. "No. You heard it wrongly."

Sh*t… He heard it just now. I'll be humiliated...

Hendrik stopped pushing her, and he said with a smile, "Let's have lunch."

She followed him down the stairs, and she felt complicated.

For a moment, she thought that he was Han, which was why she thought she would be humiliated.

She wondered why she always mixed the two of them up.

Could it be that I love Han until I'm hysterical?

At the dining table, she simply ate while being occupied with her thoughts.

Han stood up and went to get her another plate of spaghetti; he wanted to feed her. He said, "Open your mouth."

His familiar way of speaking made her heart skip a beat; she abruptly looked at him and said, "I can eat myself..."

Did I make Hendrik Han's substation just because they're a little bit alike?

She laughed at herself. I'm such a b*tch... After all these years of torment, I still can't let Han go...

"Do you want me to feed you mouth-to-mouth?"

His words startled her, and she said, "N…No... I'm just having something on my mind."

Hendrik put down the fork and plate as she started to eat. "You're being targeted, so you should stay at my place for a while."

She nodded and said faintly, "T…Thank you."

I have nowhere else to go.

Han did not show himself ever since I was hospitalized; aside from the rumor today, I actually didn't contact him for long.

The rumor should be his revenge on me, right?

She sneered and saw Hendrik picking up his phone.

She stared at the familiar silver-gray phone and froze.

That's the same phone as Han's! Is there really such a coincidence?

For a moment, she had the absurd thought that Hendrik was Han.

But she rejected her assumption because Han would not care for her like this.

It must be coincidental.

But, seeing how much resemblance there was between the two of them, she was uneasy.

So she sneaked into Hendrik's room at night with a flashlight in her hand.

She wanted to see what Hendrik looked like when he was asleep.

Chapter 388 Meeting

The moonlight was bright on an autumn night; it shone through the window room.

Leah quietly came to the bedside, and she heard him breathing on the bed.

She tensed up and tried to calm down.

Hendrik is on the bed!

If she took out her flashlight and looked at his face, she knew they would not be friends anymore.

But she wanted to know the truth.

She knew Han well, so she knew that even if he did not like her, he would not let other men get close to her.

So why did he not care about Hendrik's existence?

There were too many unanswered questions, and she frowned upon seeing Hendrik sleep with a mask on.

She reached up and touched his mask, wanting to remove it, but a strong hand grabbed her wrist.

Before she could react, she was already in his arms.

Her chin banged on his fit and smooth chest, and she gasped out of pain.

"You keep saying that you don't like me, and you still climbed into my bed at this hour?" He talked and turned on the lace lamp on his bedside.

Leah blushed and awkwardly wanted to get out of his arms; she apologized, "Sorry...I'm just curious about how you look.

So he's not asleep in the first place... He's just waiting for me to bite on his bait...

"One day you will know, but not now." He held her tight.

Her warm and soft body made her thirsty, and he let her go before his lust got out of control. "Go back; if you climb into my bed again, I can't guarantee what might happen next."

His horsing around and sexy voice made Leah blush. She apologized and ran out of his room.

She got back to her room, and she stopped all her absurd thinking.

It seemed like Han was silent about Hendrik and her because he was bored with toying with her.

Hendrik was not him; she was all wrong. Hendrik would never be him.

She wanted to go see Carlotta the next morning after she finished her breakfast. But Hendrik grabbed her hands.

"You have to report to the White Group today as the acting CEO."

She was shocked at being reminded by him; she even did not withdraw her hand. "S…So fast?"

Hendrik answered, "Since you're fine, in case you're too free and climb into my bed again, you should go to work."

She could almost see him smiling underneath the mask, and she snorted out of embarrassment, "I didn't have any motive other than looking at your face!"

Seeing how embarrassed she was, his mood lightened up. "It's okay if you don't want to admit it; you should get going."

He was speaking as if she liked him; she gritted her teeth but stopped fighting with him.

What was I thinking yesterday? It's really flirtatious and dumb of me to climb into his bed!

Hendrik sent him to the lobby of the White Group, and he assigned her an assistant. "This is your assistant; you can ask him to do anything for you."

Her assistant sent Han off, and he introduced himself in a respectful way to Leah. "Ms. White, I'm Ross, your personal assistant."

"And now, you have to go to the conference room to hold a meeting."

She was prepared, but she was still nervous, and she said, "Okay."

Hendrik assigning her to be the acting CEO meant that he trusted her ability, so she had to believe in herself too.

I can't embarrass him or myself.

In the conference room, the shareholders and high-level executives were chatting casually.

They did not welcome her when they saw her enter the room; they even looked at her mockingly.

"Why did Mr. Hendrik send a woman here? I'm leaving."

"Isn't she, Mrs. Ford? Why is she here to be the acting CEO? Does Mr. Hendrik really like her?"

"I heard that she used to be the daughter of the White Group, but... her family was broken, and she had to survive under Mr. Ford."

All of their comments were triggering her bad memories; her face turned pale.

Ross hurriedly stepped forward and yelled, "Mr. Hendrik assigned her himself; if any of you are dissatisfied, you should go talk to Mr. Hendrik!"

Their faces sank upon hearing Ross' words, and they lowered their voices.

Leah did not feel relieved; she knew that they still disliked her.

But she did not need them to like her.

She took a deep breath, and she became firm and steady.

"It seems like you guys are still not clear about the situation? The stocks of the White Group were all under Mr. Hendrik now, so none of you can use your share to make things difficult for me."

"I know I'm merely acting CEO, but I have the authority to fire you all. So, please be seated now."

They frowned and exchanged looks with each other before returning to their seats unwillingly.

One of them could not hold it and asked, "You're inexperienced in doing business, so what if you cause the company to go bankrupt?"

She looked at him faintly and said, "Mr. Hendrik was not scared of it, so who are you to worry about?"

"Y…You!" That man was lost for words.

An old man sneered and said, "It's impossible for us to accept you if you always suppress us with Mr. Hendrik; you should prove yourself with some results!"

"You must know that West Street was long abandoned, and no one got ownership of the land by now. If you can take down that land, we'll sincerely accept you."

She was stunned; the explosion happened on West Street back then.

It was a strategic location, but the Thompson family had long abandoned it due to their internal fights.

They would have rather abandoned it than sell it.

Many people had gone to them for this land, but they all were kicked out.

Simply put, it was impossible to get the land.

He was making things difficult for her on purpose.

Seeing her being silent for a while, they sneered, "Ha! Are you afraid? Well, so you're nothing without Mr. Hendrik!"

"Little girl like you should not come into the business world; you should just obediently submit to Mr. Hendrik. Ha!"

She said sternly, despite hearing all the obscene words, "Alright, I get it; and all of you have to apologize to me."

It would be hard to execute it, but as long as it was not sold, she would always have the chance.

They were all stunned by her decision, and they snorted mockingly, "Do you know what you're talking about? Mr. Thompson would not be seduced by mere women, that's the Thompson family!"

"The Thompson family has been prosperous for decades. Who do you believe you are to persuade them?"

"Alright, if you can really take over the land, I'll apologize to you in front of the whole company!"

Chapter 389 The Bet

Leah made a bet with the top-level management.

Once she took over the West Street land, all of them had to apologize to her, and they had to accept her sincerely as the acting CEO.

After the meeting, Leah inspected the work of various departments with Ross accompanying her.

She was no stranger to this place; just that she barely recognized the workers.

After Jackson took over the White Group, he changed all the workers in it to his favor.

He was the one that selected and hired the staff from the top-level management, so all of them were hostile toward her.

When she passed the design department, she seemed to be in a daze thinking of something, so she stood still for a while.

And she overheard some gossip among the workers.

"Is she the mistress? Is she the one that seduces men and ruins Princess Anna's engagement?"

"I feel disgusted looking at her; why is she still standing in our department?"

"This is really eye-opening for me to see a real sl*t in life."

Leah came back to her senses, and she walked straight to the staff that insulted her the most.

"Don't you all know the company's rules? Gossiping during working hours is wrong; your monthly bonus will be deducted accordingly."

"The second time offender will be fired!" Her face darkened, and she spoke firmly.

Hendrik told her that she should move on without looking sideways or back. So, all she had to do was do her best.

Running away could never solve the problem!

They did not expect Leah to be fierce; they all panicked and said, "Sorry, Ms. White, please forgive us!"

The White Group was a big company; they could not risk losing their jobs.

She would have felt sorry for such people back then, but she was not the old her.

The moment Alfred died for her made her realize that cowardice could not solve problems.

Right now, as the acting CEO on behalf of Hendrik, she should not be bullied by the staff.

After inspecting all the departments, she warned to expel many staff with solid reasons. So, none of them thought that she was deliberately showing off her power.

She dragged her limp legs back to the office, and she sighed heavily. "A…Ah…"

She had been lying on her bed for twenty days due to her injuries, so her stamina reclined.

Ross looked at her with respect and said, "Ms. White, you've done well for the first day; you've established your reputation among the staff."

Mr. Hendrik ordered me to establish her reputation for her, but I've done nothing after talking once for her in the conference room.

Ms. White is way more capable than I thought.

Leah was exhausted and sleepy, but all the stress kept her wide awake.

She rubbed her eyes wearily and sighed softly. "Ross, please gather the Thompson family's information for me, especially Mr. Thompson's details."

Ross nodded and said respectfully, "Okay, Ms. White!"

While waiting for the information, she made a phone call to Carlotta.

"Mommy! Why did you leave me and elope with Third Daddy? Bring me along!"

Carlotta's words almost made her fall from her chair.

Her face crumpled, and she said, "Carlotta, I'm just friends with Hendrik! There's no Third Daddy!"

"You've watched too much drama on television!"

Carlotta snorted softly, "Hmph! Where have you been since yesterday night? You think you can cover it up with just a call?"

"Mommy, how could you leave me alone with Daddy Han? Let me know more about Uncle Hendrik!"

She palmed herself upon hearing her words, and she said, "Carlotta, I'll accompany you after work. I stayed at his house for a night, and nothing happened."

Before finishing her sentence, she recalled that she climbed into Hendrik's bed; she flushed.

After finally dealing with Carlotta, she wanted to call Serena.

But worrying that Serena might gossip with her like Carlotta did, she chose to text her instead.

"Serena, please take over the Dream Designs for the time being. I'll be working in the White Group as the acting CEO, so I might not be able to manage the studio's work. But don't be worried; I'll help with the design draft whenever I can."

After sending the message, Serena straightaway called her.

"Sarah, it's strange for you to message me instead of calling me."

Leah sighed and responded, "Well, I'm afraid others will be dissatisfied with me on the phone during office hours."

Serena chuckled and teased her, "You're the acting CEO now; who dares to say anything about you?"

After a while, Serena thought of something and said meaningfully, "I'll take care of the studio. So, tell me now, who do you choose?"

"From what I've seen, Hendrik is the closest to you now. So, will he be your boyfriend soon?"

Leah was speechless.

At the same time, Han was back at the Villa Victoria.

He saw Carlotta sitting on the sofa, and she was writing about something in her notebook.

He walked up to her and caressed her soft hair. "Carlotta, what are you writing?"

Seeing him, Carlotta broke into a smile, and she said, "Daddy! I'm analyzing who Mommy likes!"

He smirked and asked, "O-Oh? Who does she like?"

She put down her notebook and said seriously, "First, she likes me the most!"

"And then, among the three daddies... I'm not sure who she likes the most."

Han pinched her cheeks for including Shawn; he said sternly, "Shawn is not counted; didn't your mommy tell you about it before?"

Carlotta was stunned, and she asked, "Then, only you and Uncle Hendrik were left... There are others

who like Mommies, but she doesn't like them..."

Han was overjoyed to hear her words, and he smiled faintly. "Yes."

"I'll bring you to lunch first." He carried Carlotta to the dining table.

She laid in his arms, and she got alert smelling him.

Isn't this Uncle Hendrik's smell?

"Daddy, do you know Uncle Hendrik?" She asked him when she was eating.

He looked indifferent and asked, "What do you think?"

Carlotta wanted to ask him about his similar smell to Uncle Hendrik, but she was confused. "I have no idea..."

Throughout the meal, she was staring at Han with her big, watery eyes.

She believed in her own intuition. Uncle Hendrik felt the same as Daddy.

Hendrik was always in a mask; she suspected that he might be the same person as Han.

Han left after eating, and Carlotta put her notebook aside and went straight to the computer.

She began to search for information about Hendrik and Han, and she secretly compared the similarities between them.

Chapter 390 I Want Her Dead

Leah's appointment as the White Group's acting CEO was a hot topic on Twitter.

Everyone did not dare to scold her as much due to Hendrik.

Donald had planned a counterattack against those who were making disparaging remarks.

When Anna saw the news on the tablet, her eyes turned red with hatred, and she slammed the tablet to the ground.

"F*ck you, Sarah!" She was forced to announce the cancellation of her engagement with Ethan.

But she implied that Sarah was the one ruining their engagement.

She was being scolded and ridiculed one day ago; how could all the negative posts and comments be gone? And why is she the acting CEO of the White Group now?

The more Anna thought about it, the angrier she became, and she pushed all her expensive cosmetics onto the table. "Hendrik, you stupid d*mbass! How could you be seduced by a woman like her?"

She could not reach Ethan at all now; it seemed like Owen had really pissed him off. She was worried that Ethan would abandon her.

She almost dropped her phone thinking about it.

I don't want to end things with Ethan!

If I'd known it earlier, I would have gotten rid of Sarah as soon as I could.

Owen heard her smashing things in her room; he opened her door worriedly.

"Nana, don't be so angry. I've sent someone to talk to Ethan. I believe he will return to you soon."

She looked at him indifferently and said, "Dad, you shouldn't have treated Ethan like this from the beginning. You're the one ruining our engagement!"

She went to the place where Ethan had secretly prepared the proposal, and it was beautifully arranged.

But before she was proposed to, everything fell apart.

If she wanted to get back to Ethan, Leah would be the key.

She did not want to admit it, but she knew that Ethan would respond to Leah.

Anna arrived at the While Group, and she saw Leah going through the Thompson family's documents.

"Sarah, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing?"

Leah frowned, looking at her pretentious smile, and she asked, "What's the matter?"

Anna's acting skills were excellent; others would have thought the two of them were best friends.

Leah was enraged to see Leah distancing herself from her. But she suppressed her emotion and said casually, "Leah, I'm sad seeing you distancing yourself from me. I was injured two times because of you, and I've never blamed you for it."

Leah recalled the painful memories as Anna mentioned these incidents.

She was being wrongfully accused by Han for Alfred's death; she felt terrible back then.

Leah's face crumpled, and she said, "As far as I know, those two incidents were not related to me. I've never harmed you before."

Because of you, I've suffered a lot.

Seeing that she could not trick Leah, Anna stopped pretending. She looked at her indifferently and said, "Well, you're the one running my engagement with Ethan."

"Don't think that I was oblivious about you messing around with him!"

Leah's face turned slightly pale, and she snorted, "I've never seduced him before. Just tell me why you are here today!"

It was rare to see Leah being firm; Ann sneered, "Wow, Ms. White, you changed a lot being a CEO; you're so rude to your guest now."

Anna could not understand why Ethan and Hendrik fell for a lowly woman like Leah.

Leah saw that Anna had nothing important to say to her, and she was too lazy to quarrel with her. "Ms. Lancaster, you should leave if you've nothing to do here."

Anna glared at her murderously, and she snorted, "Call Ethan now! Ask him to meet you!"

Leah groaned and responded, "Don't you have his contact too? You should call him yourself."

Leah did not want to contact Han if it was not necessary.

Especially now that she thought that Han did not want anything with her; Han did not appear in front of her for one month.

Anna suppressed her anger and said, "Aren't you short of money? I'll give you seven million to ask him out!"

"You are just the acting CEO, so you shouldn't be earning this much in a month. I will give you whatever you want!"

Leah finally realized that something was wrong between Anna and Han; she was willing to give her so much money just to ask him out.

"No." She still rejected Anna.

She was the acting CEO of the White Group at the moment; she had to think and act carefully.

She could not give anyone the opportunity to frame or harm her; it would be too late for her to regret if anything happened.

It's fine if I'm punished. But if I accidentally dragged Hendrik and even the Kendrick Group into it...

Anna knew that it would be useless for her to stay and pursue Leah.

So, she left and got back into her car. She cursed viciously. "This f*cking b*tch! She's purposely keeping Ethan away from me."

Her maid agreed with her, saying, "Miss, let's teach her some lessons! Mr. Hendrik will not go against Mr. Lancaster just for a woman like her."

Anna sneered, "No. A lesson isn't enough. I want her dead!"

"Miss, this will be a whole new matter," the maid said, terrified by her reaction. "Mr. Hendrik will surely avenge her."

Anna thought of countless vicious schemes, and she said slyly, "That's why you have to be well prepared. Let's create the illusion that this b*tch died accidentally."

In the evening, Leah was getting ready to get off work.

She was so tired that she could almost fall asleep in one second.

On her first day on the job, she handled nearly three times as much work as before.

She not only has to deal with that, but she also has to deal with Anna.

Donald came to see her too. And Ron also looked for her, but she refused to see him.

Ross handed her her coat and said, "Ms. White, good job working hard. Where should the driver pick you up tomorrow morning?"

"Will you be at Mr. Hendrik's villa or your studio?"

Leah looked at him with flustered cheeks; he seemed to be talking about something very normal.

Does he think that I'm living with Hendrik?

"It's okay! I'll come to work myself!" She said and hurriedly left.

She wanted to get into the car prepared by Hendrik, but someone dragged her into another car.

She looked at the person beside her in panic, and she tensed up. "Ron Sanders, let me down!"

It seemed like he was waiting for her all day.

Ron did not want to see her hatred for him; he regretted all his mistakes throughout the years.

He covered his head in pain, and he said, "Sarah, I was wrong in the past; can you give me a chance to make up for
