Ch. 421..425: Begging For A Reconciliation Chapter 421-425

Chapter 421 Unknown Reasons

Leah did not want to discuss this topic with her, she turned to the night view outside the window, “Carlotta is staying at your place for some time now, how is she doing?”

Serena knew her intentions to change the subject, she frowned slightly. “She's fine, much chubbier than I've seen her before, Han is taking good care of her.”

“As a friend, can you tell me, why are you together with Shawn all of a sudden?”

Serena brought the subject back.

Leah had to answer the question no matter what since Serena had asked. “Serena, please don't think too much about it, I just suddenly figured out that I want to be with him.”

“Didn't you say that he was quite nice before this? Suggesting that I should get along with him?”

Leah still didn't choose to tell Serena the truth. The less she knew, the safer she would be. Shawn’s true character was not like how it appeared to be. Once he knew his plan was known by Serena, he would definitely retaliate viciously. She could be dead.

Leah chose to bear all the responsibility and consequences alone.

Serena knew Leah didn't feel like sharing and she stopped asking about it.

She held both of Leah’s hands, “As long as you're safe, happy, and healthy, I'll be content.”

Sarah must have her reasons for doing so since it is not convenient to share now. I’ll support her silently behind the scenes.

“I came to visit you today. Since you are doing well, I’m relieved.” Serena said her goodbyes and prepared to leave.

Even though Leah was reluctant to let her leave, she did not dare to let her stay at the Ford mansion for long, “I let Leon send you back.”

Leon was one of Shawn’s assistants. He was arranged to serve Leah for the time being.

“ There’s no need for it. Tomorrow is the weekend, and everyone in the studio is on vacation. I also happen to have time to bring Carlotta out. You come over and join us too.” Serena invited her to go out tomorrow before leaving.

“Okay.” Leah felt guilty when she thought of Carlotta, whom she had not seen for many days.

After Leon sent Serena back, Leah found Shawn in the study and told him that she was going out tomorrow.

She felt nervous when she talked about it because she had not left Shawn’s supervision for some time. She was in a semi-house arrest state.

He unexpectedly agreed, “Sure.”

Before Leah had the time to rejoice, his next words made her felt complicated.

“I haven’t seen Carlotta for quite a while too. I’ll go with you.”

She knew this was Shawn’s bottom line, she suppressed her emotions and agreed.

I’ll be fine as long as I can meet Carlotta.

The next morning.

On the way to Dream Designs, Leah mentioned that she wanted a new phone with Shawn.

“I think it's not very convenient to use your phone. Your business partners called often. Buy me a new one.” She tried her best to talk gently.

Shawn frowned and pondered for a moment, “ I will ask my assistant to settle the calls from them as soon as possible. Sarah, you should use this phone.”

Leah did not mention this again as he was not happy about it. She knew Shawn was still reluctant for her to have a phone all to herself.

They arrived at Dream Designs half an hour later. Serena and Carlotta had been waiting for a long time.

“Mommy, what have you been doing these days? I haven't seen you for a long time! You don't miss me anymore!” As soon as Carlotta saw her, she ran towards her while crying.

Leah carried her immediately and wiped away the tears on her face. “I’m sorry, it’s mommy’s fault…”

Leah eyes got teary too.

She worried about Carlotta the most. If she brought Carlotta together to live with Shawn. Her child would become a key for him to blackmail and control her.

Shawn saw the tears in Leah’s eyes and hugged both of them. “We will live together from now on. We won’t be separated anymore.”

Carlotta wanted to nod instinctively but after seeing the look in Serena’s eyes. She became serious.

She shook her head and refused, “Uncle Shawn, it's okay. Before you both get married, I plan to stay with Aunt Serena. You can have the chance to spend time together as a couple.”

Carlotta sounded like she was considerate of them. Shawn was satisfied and smiled, “Alright, little kid.”

Carlotta’s reaction shocked Leah. She looked at Serena, who gave her a reassuring smile. She understood instantly. Her eyes were slightly teary once again.

Serena obviously didn't know anything, yet she still thought of a foolproof way for her. She had protected Carlotta well knowing that Leah was most concerned about her.

The temperature has dropped day by day since winter started.

Shawn brought them to an indoor amusement park. He played with Carlotta most of the time while Leah and Serena were chatting at the side.

“I can see that he sincerely treats Carlotta as his daughter, it could be nice if you really love him, but…”

Serena looked at Shawn and looked at Leah the next.

“I can feel that you do not love him at all.”

Leah was exposed and she felt terrified. However, she still pretended to be calm. She said with a soft smile, “Serena, don’t say such things next time. I will slowly build up my feelings for him.”

Shawn’s attitude towards Serena was solely based on Leah. He went to the extent of trying to try and kill Serena a few times in order to make Leah to be dependent on him. If he heard Serena say Leah doesn’t love him, he would do something unexpectedly again.

After a day of having fun, they took many photos to post online. Shawn intentionally let his assistant send a few photos to Han’s email.

Han looked at the photos and he was focused on Leah’s beautiful face.

She didn't look happy when she was together with Shawn. What is the exact reason that she chooses to be with him?

He was lost in his thoughts.

The cold wind blew in through the window, and some of the photos on his desk fell to the ground. The sound of the fallen photos made him come back to his senses.

He got up and picked up the photos. They were photos of Leah and him at the amusement park last time. She was on the roller coaster, leaning on him.

“Boss, Donald escaped.” Ben saw the photos in Han’s hand.

Han is not concerned about this matter. He put the photo back into the inside pocket of his jacket.

“Have you found out what happened between Sarah and Shawn?”

Ben shook his head, “No, but according to tour spies in Ford mansion, they couldn’t tell Ms. White’s feelings towards him. The reason for her to stay was also unknown…”

 

Chapter 422 Please Save Her

It was the end of the outing.

“Let's go, Carlotta. Next time daddy will bring you out again.” He held Carlotta in his arms with a doting smile.

Carlotta froze when she heard him call himself “daddy”. She looked at Leah and tilted her head in confusion. Her fluttering big eyes seemed to ask Leah if Shawn could be called daddy.

Leah felt sick in her heart but she agreed, “Hm.”

Serena saw her expression and she frowned. She followed Leah into the car as well.

After getting into the car, she did not say anything but held Leah’s hand tightly. The feelings were conveyed without words.

Leah was always moved by Serena’s attentiveness and thoughtfulness. It made her eyes teary again.

Before Shawn carried Carlotta to get into the car, a man selling lollipops passed by. She was immediately hooked by the sweets.

“Okay, I'll go buy it for you. You stay in the car and wait for me.” Shawn said as he put her in the car seat. The moment he turned around, she also jumped out of the car after him.

Accidents happened too soon. When she jumped down from the car, a passerby on a bicycle collided with her suddenly.

“Bang” Both of them fell to the ground.

“Carlotta!” Leah screamed and quickly opened the door. She looked terrified when she got down from the car.

Her hands trembled lightly and she hurriedly held Carlotta in her arms. Serena and Shawn came to her side.

“Carlotta, are you okay? How do you feel? Is there any pain anywhere?” Serena sounded anxious while she squatted beside Leah.

Shawn asked the driver to locate a hospital nearby. “Let’s go to the hospital quickly!”

“Mommy, I’m fine…” Carlotta’s voice was slightly trembling. She looked like she was tolerating the pain.

Leah’s eyes were reddened and tears were overflowing. “Tell mommy, where does it hurt…”

She could see Carlotta’s pants dripping with blood from the inside. Her calf is injured.

Leah felt her head buzzing and almost fainted when she saw the blood.

“It's going to be okay. Don't worry, we're going to the hospital!” Serena comforted and held Leah up.

Ten minutes later, Carlotta was taken to a nearby hospital.

There were no internal injuries after some examinations were done. However, the doctor looked serious when he came forward to inform Leah that Carlotta would not stop bleeding.

It was not surprising. Her face went pale and she went downstairs alone to call Han.

“Carlotta is injured. Could you please come to the hospital now for a moment? I had sent the address to you…” She desperately tried to keep calm.

She let her guard down since there were no accidents for some time. She even forgot that Carlotta had this genetic disorder.

“Leah, it’s up to you with your private life. Why can't you take care of Carlotta properly?” Han said on the other side of the phone.

His words reminded her of what he had once said to her. She would never be a qualified mother. The pain in her heart spread throughout her limbs, making it almost impossible for her to stand.

Leah could only beg Han at this moment, “You said… it would still be the same as before, please save her…”

The bad memories flashed through her mind again.

Han snorted at her and hung up the phone.

Leah sat helplessly on the floor, unable to calm down. She didn't know Han's decision, nor did she know if he would come over. She was in a panic state right now.

After all, it was not long ago that she had mocked him severely at the banquet. He might take his revenge now.

Leah couldn't control the bad thoughts in her head no matter how Serena and Shawn comforted her. She went back to Carlotta’s ward and squatted outside hugging her knees helplessly.

Will she lose Carlotta because of this accident? If she really lost her, can she remain calm enough to complete the plan?

There is only one thought in Leah’s mind for now. If Carlotta was not by her side anymore, she had no courage to live either.

“Don't worry, Sarah. I'll go around the world to find someone with her blood type or some rare blood that can give her a blood transfusion!” Shawn left after he informed Leah.

“Sarah, I also go and ask for everyone’s help. Donald and his network technology company have developed so well, we are certainly able to use the power of the network.” Serena also left to search for help.

In the empty corridor, there was only Leah and some assistants and bodyguards who protected her.

The cold wind blew in through the window and made the temperature drop.

She pinched her arms to control herself not to barge into Carlotta’s ward so as not to disturb the medical staff from rescuing her child.

A warm jacket with a nice smell covered her head.

“You were not like this a few days ago. Shawn is not here, you are acting for who?” Han mocked her but he felt heartache for her too.

Leah ignored his mockery and stood up shakily while holding the wall. She did not expect him to come over and she uttered, “You're here.”

She looked like a person who was about to be drowned in icy water and suddenly saw a rescue team in the moment of despair.

Leah strode forwards and grabbed his arms tightly, afraid that he would flee the next second, “Please... hurry up and save her!”

As she moved, Han’s expensive hand-made custom wool jacket also fell to the ground.

“Pick it up.” He frowned and glanced at the jacket on the ground before walking directly into the ward.

Leah wanted to follow but she was stopped by the medical staff, “Miss, you are the child's closest family member. You might not be able to accept the scene in the ward and affect the process of rescue and treatment. Please wait patiently outside.”

They quickly closed the door again. She could smell the blood inside the ward and she collapsed on the floor.

The waiting time was extraordinarily long.

She was unable to bear the coldness and her consciousness gradually faded as she leaned against the

wall.

Carlotta will be fine…

When she woke up, it was already another day.

The early winter days are gloomy, she can't tell the exact time now.

She pulled the needle out from her hand and came to the nurse's reception, “Is Carlotta okay now? The little girl who lost a lot of blood.”

In tha ampty corridor, thara was only Laah and soma assistants and bodyguards who protactad har.

Tha cold wind blaw in through tha window and mada tha tamparatura drop.

Chapter 423 Yes, I’m That Shameless

Seeing Leah's anxious expression, the nurse hurriedly comforted her. "She is fine. After a kind-hearted man rescued her yesterday, her blood stopped gradually. But the man who transfused her blood seemed to be in a bad condition. He transfused too much blood..."

Hearing that, Leah felt her heart tighten. "Where is that man? Where is he now?"

"I don't know. A person who claimed to be his assistant took him back."

Back in Carlotta's ward, Leah was stunned.

Han, he made it this far for Carlotta.

Leah's gaze fell on Carlotta. Carlotta's face was pale after bleeding, but her breathing had already calmed down. The nurse had also bandaged the wound on her leg, and there was no further bleeding.

Leah breathed a sigh of relief and patted her cheeks wearily. As Han's family doctor was capable, she thought nothing would happen to Han.

Just then, a phone call came from Ben.

"Ms. White, could you please come and take care of Boss? He transfused so much blood yesterday, but he still wanted to go out to work. He also didn't allow the family doctor and nursing staff to care for him. Can you please help me?"

Leah seldom saw the flustered Ben, who was always to be calm. Her heart tightened. "Won't he hate

me even more when he sees me? You should be looking for Anna now."

I'll only add to his anger if I go there.

Her words stunned Ben before he asked in confusion, "Why? Boss closes to Anna just to take advantage of her."

Leah felt surprised. She did not expect Han had even taken advantage of Anna.

After pondering for a while, Leah agreed to Ben's request. "Okay, I'll go there. At Villa Victoria?"

"Yes!"

After finishing the call, Leah came to the bedside and kissed Carlotta's cheek. "Carlotta, be good. I'll be back soon."

Coincidentally, Serena came back.

She hurriedly opened the ward door. "Sarah, I heard that someone saved Carlotta. Who had donated blood? There is no record in the medical station, and someone had erased the monitoring!"

Leah's eyes dimmed slightly. "It's Han. Try to keep this matter from Shawn as much as possible. I'm going to Han's villa now. Can you please take care of Carlotta? Don't let Shawn take her away."

Serena agreed without hesitation, but she was a little worried. "Sarah, I don't know what you are thinking now, but you must pay attention to your safety. Whatever your reason for doing it, tell me the

truth whenever you want."

"Okay."

After asking Serena to care for Carlotta, Leah left the hospital and went to Victoria Precinct by taxi. She had an entry and exit permit in Victoria Precinct, so the security guard did not stop her.

Just as Leah stepped into the familiar villa, she heard Han's cold roar.

"Ben, I told you not to intervene in my business. Why did you call Leah here!"

Leah pushed the door lightly and entered, then saw Han angrily throwing the document to Ben.

Leah thought that Han did not want to see her. Her clear eyes dimmed a little but recovered quickly. Han saved Carlotta, and since Ben entrusted her, she would come to help.

"Don't worry. If you don't want to see me, I won't show up in front of you. I'll leave after cooking for you every day." Leah came to Han and Ben.

Seeing Leah appear, Ben felt eased a lot. "Ms. White, you're here! I'll leave first."

In the big and luxurious living room, only Leah and Han left.

Han glanced at Leah indifferently, then turned and went upstairs. "Go back! I have a nanny here. I don't need you to cook."

Leah passed out before I left yesterday, and now she had listened to Ben take care of me. How

ridiculous!

However, because of Leah's arrival, he felt much better.

Leah paused but was still firm in her decision. "You saved Carlotta. I'll repay you."

As for Shawn, as long as he doesn't know, it shouldn't affect the plan.

Leah's formulaic answer immediately made Han irritable. He turned around and came to Leah, then pinched her chin.

"You want to repay me? No problem! Sleep with me now!"

Leah was not too shocked by his answer. After a long silence, she lowered her eyes and answered, "You can do whatever you want."

Leah did not feel too sad right now. She was ready for it to achieve her plan and for the sake of Carlotta. Her mind and soul had already fallen into the dirty quagmire, and she could do whatever she could to achieve her goals.

Han stared at Leah coldly for a long time, then showed a sarcastic smile. "Leah, you're so shameless! Does it mean anyone can sleep with you as long as they help you?"

Leah smiled palely, and her gaze was blank. "Yes, I've always been that shameless! Didn't you know it a long time ago? I've been entangling you all the time because of my shamelessness!"

She laughed at herself calmly while Han felt her words like a sharp knife, which pierced his heart hard.

His eyes suddenly turned cold, and his handsome face was full of anger. "You don't deserve to be Carlotta's mother! You're too depraved!"

Leah chuckled. "What should I do? I'm indeed her mother..."

Before she finished speaking, Han changed to pinch her face to make her shut up.

"You look so proud. Do I need to praise you?" His eyes were fierce and frightening, and his murderous aura made him like a ghost from hell with a strong sense of oppression.

Leah was frightened by his appearance. Cold sweat broke out on her palms, but she calmed down quickly.

She could not move as Han still pinched her. So, she raised her eyes to meet his gaze and was about to pull his hand away when Han suddenly fell to her.

As Leah could not support his weight, they fell to the ground momentarily.

"Get up!" Leah was a little out of breath and pushed his chest.

But Han did not respond to Leah, and she realized he had passed out. The sudden incident made her startled.

Fortunately, Ben was observing them not far away. He hurried forward and helped Han up. "Ms. White, please help me."

They helped Han onto the bed in the room. When Leah looked at Han lying on the bed with a pale face, she felt frustrated.

It was rare for her to see the weak Han. She felt her heart pain when she saw his condition.

Enduring the tears in her eyes, she ordered Ben, "Call the family doctor now. If he is unhappy when he wakes up tomorrow, I'll take the responsibility."

Chapter 424 His Concession

It was raining outside, and the damp water vapor penetrated the room along the cracks of the window.

Leah got up to close the window and asked Ben curiously, "Why didn't Han let the family doctor check his body?"

Ben frowned and said, "Maybe Boss feels a little sad and in a bad mood."

Leah was slightly startled and asked the reason. The word sad never seemed to be associated with Han.

Ben recalled the scenes Han secretly looked at the photos of him and Leah. Ben paused for a while but finally did not disclose those matters. He wanted to preserve Han's last dignity.

Seeing that Leah did not ask anymore, Ben looked at her complicatedly. He could not help but ask, "Ms. White, can I ask why you want to be with Shawn suddenly? Do you have any difficulty? If so, just tell Boss! He'll help you!"

It's rare for Boss to like someone for so long. Even I thought that they had finally eased their relationship. I didn't expect everything to change suddenly.

Leah frowned slightly and looked at the rain outside the window. "I don't have any difficulty, and it shouldn't be sudden. After all, I've been with Shawn for so long in the past two years. I've developed a relationship with him."

After saying that, she looked at Ben again with a faint smile. Ben had no choice but to give up

persuading her. He had other ideas in mind.

The family doctor briefly checked Han's body. He gave Han an IV drip and said to Leah, "Ms. White, Mr. Howard is fine. It's just some symptoms after donating too much blood. He needs to rest for a few days. During this period, you must be careful not to let him go to work or get too tired."

Leah was stunned. "Okay, I got it. You can go back now."

She did not think Han would be obedient if she did not allow him to go out. For Carlotta's sake, she still needed to care for him and build a good relationship. But what she did was contrary to her plan. Once Shawn found something was wrong between her and Han, it would become hard for her to extract the location of the laboratory from Shawn.

Leah took care of Han for one night. He slept deeply and did not need her to worry about anything else.

It was dawn at 5.00 am in early winter. After handing Han to Ben, Leah took a taxi to Dream Designs to pretend to be working all night.

Serena, who had been waiting in the studio for a long time, saw Leah back and gave her breakfast. "Carlotta is still resting upstairs. Do you want to sleep for a while?"

While eating breakfast, Leah rejected Serena's proposal. "I'm fine. Give me some work first. After all, I have nothing to do after returning to the Ford mansion. I can sleep when I go back there."

Serena suppressed her urge to ask Leah's purpose and brought Leah a few design drafts. "HJ Corporation rejected these drafts. Only you can complete them."

After Leah had breakfast and revised the design drafts, it was already 8.00 am. Leah sent the modified design drafts to Susan and soon received her call, but it was on Serena's mobile phone, and Susan asked Leah to pick it up.

"Ms. White, you're finally back! I knew you modified these drafts when I saw them. They're good! Are you okay? I contacted you several times but failed. I'm worried about you!"

Susan's sudden enthusiasm made Leah a little surprised, but she still answered Susan politely, "Thank you for your concern, Ms. Victor. I'm sorry. Something happened a while ago, so I changed my phone number. I've almost retreated behind the scenes now. If you have any needs, you can tell Serena. I'll be responsible for your design drafts, but Serena is mainly responsible for them..."

Only then did Susan understand. "I see. Okay, I'll finish my work soon, then go to your country to open a branch office. At that time, we can see each other every day!"

Leah felt that Susan was surprised and over-enthusiastic after they contacted again, but Leah did not think much about it. After explaining the work to Susan, she felt a little relieved.

At 8.30 am, Shawn came to pick Leah up on time.

"Serena, I'll go first. Please take good care of Carlotta." Leah waved to Serena.

Serena's expression was particularly complicated. She pursed her lips and wanted to say something but finally gave up. "Okay, be careful on the road."

Serena faintly felt that Leah was executing a big plan, but she could not help. This feeling made Serena uncomfortable.

Not long after, Shawn returned to the Ford mansion with Leah.

He reluctantly rejected Leah from returning to work in the design studio. "Sarah, we're getting married soon. Please trust me that I can support you. You don't have to work so hard anymore. Last night you stayed up all night. If Serena didn't stop me and said that you hated to be taken away by force, I would not endure until this morning to pick you up. You only have to be my bride obediently."

Leah frowned. She did not like Shawn deprived her of the value of existence. She looked up to meet his eyes. "But I have a job I like and things I want to do. I feel that I'll be useless if I lie at home every day!"

I must change this situation of being completely cut off from the outside world!

Leah's complexion was solemn, and her eyes were shining brightly. Shawn was stunned that he did not know what to say.

"Sarah, you..."

"Or you can let me go to work with you. It's too boring at home!" Shawn was about to speak when Leah interrupted.

Leah hid a deep purpose in her words, but Shawn thought she wanted to be with him and did not think much about it.

"But I'm in charge of the laboratory now. There are many viruses in it. It's dangerous for you." Shawn approached Leah with a smile. He felt glad because Leah asked to work with him.

Leah pretended to be indifferent and turned back to the room. "You want to imprison me, don't you? Do you mean I can't go anywhere or do anything and have no freedom?"

He had not seen her cold face for a long time. He was a little uncomfortable and frowned, then made his concession. "The laboratory is too dangerous. I can ask Serena to bring work here every day. You can work together with her at home."

Knowing it was Shawn's best compromise right now, Leah was satisfied. She showed a faint smirk on her pretty face. "Okay."

Leah wanted to carry out her plan little by little. She believed she would make Shawn let his guard down completely one day.

After calming Leah's emotions, Shawn brought up the matter of marriage again. He came to her side, then reached out to wrap her soft waist with a smile. "Sarah, last time I decided on the wedding dress style. Do you want to try it on with me tomorrow?"

Hearing that, Leah stayed calm and nodded soon. "Okay."

She had been waiting for this day as she knew that marrying Shawn was the best way to gain his trust.

Chapter 425 Reason for Staying

The next day, Shawn took Leah to the bridal shop after having lunch in the high-end restaurant at noon.

The news about them choosing the wedding dress together spread out soon and caused another trending topic on the internet.

"What a peerless man! Mr. Ford is so gentle and considerate!"

"Honestly, I'm very envious. This kind of bad woman often has a good life!"

"Who said Sarah White is a bad woman? Are you not afraid of being beaten by Mr. Ford?"

As soon as the news spread, Ford Group's stock gradually rose.

While waiting for Leah to try on the wedding dress in the dressing room, Shawn's assistant informed Shawn about the company.

"Mr. Ford, your marketing strategy is successful. Our stock has risen a lot these days. Before that, we were under pressure from Kendrick Group, but now we are much better."

Shawn smiled and replied coldly, "Good! Even if our plan isn't successful, we have the strength to confront Kendrick Group now! As long as Ford Group can last until we implement our plan, we can defeat Han and Hendrik at the same time!"

The assistant also showed a cold smile. "Mr. Ford, you're mighty! After you marry Ms. White, we'll take back the White Group soon, and our power will be even greater!"

They seemed to have seen Han's embarrassed appearance when they defeated him.

After changing into the wedding dress, Leah looked at Shawn's smile from afar and furrowed. It was not difficult to imagine what they were talking about now.

I must get the information I want as soon as possible. I don't have much time left!

"Shawn, does I look good?" The clear and soft voice pulled Shawn's thoughts back, and he looked back.

Leah stood in the luxurious bridal shop with the golden crystal light falling on her body. She smiled gently and tilted her head slightly to wait for his answer.

Shawn felt his heart beat faster, and his eyes softened. "You're beautiful."

He had seen such a scene in his dream.

He came to Leah's side and hugged her tightly. He put his head on her slender neck and sniffed the fragrance from her body. His eyes were full of desire.

"Sarah, we'll always be together, right?"

Leah felt guilty upon hearing that. She pretended to be teasing and avoided answering. "I don't know. It

depends on your performance."

Every move between them was like a couple in love. A cameraman not far away recorded all their behavior and posted it online.

Han suddenly froze when he saw the news, and his expression became gloomy.

"Boss, don't think much! After you fainted last night, Ms. White cared for you all night. She still cares about you." Ben could only try his best to calm Han's emotions.

Han snorted coldly and threw his phone away irritably. "You don't have to defend her. Whoever she likes has nothing to do with me."

He was stubborn and refused to admit the feelings in his heart. Ben did not continue to persuade him but followed his words.

"Okay, Boss. If so, I'll stop the monitor I put on Ms. White."

Han's gaze swept toward Ben indifferently. "You put a monitor on her when she came over last night?"

"Yes, since you don't want to hear about Ms. White, I'll ask people to stop..." Ben admitted that he was betting on Han's reaction.

Bern wanted Han to recognize his heart. Among his subordinates, everyone knew that Han liked Leah. As long as it was about Leah, Han became extraordinarily abnormal.

Han glanced at Ben lightly. "Don't stop it. Report anything new to me."

With only one glance, Ben felt like he had walked through hell and broke out in cold sweat. "Yes, Boss!"

The monitor Ben placed on Leah was the latest technological product developed by Kendrick Group. With the addition of artificial intelligence components, it would determine the scene and automatically hide it in the most suitable position in the room.

After Leah came back yesterday, the monitor crawled out of her pocket and automatically hid under Leah's bed.

Leah returned to the room in the evening. She tried on the wedding dresses for a day and was exhausted.

Meanwhile, Shawn leaned against her door. "Sarah, Serena said she wants to bring Carlotta over to play. You can ask them to sleep here tonight."

"Are you going to the laboratory again?" Seeing that he was going out, Leah pretended to be curious.

Shawn walked up to her and pinched her face. "Yes, are you reluctant to let me go?"

"So what? You won't take me there anyway." Leah snorted softly, then dodged Shawn's touch.

The moment she turned around, her eyes were full of solemnity. Shawn goes to the laboratory more and more times. Does it mean that the experiment is progressing smoothly?

Shawn's smile deepened. "If you miss me, I can stay with you."

"No need. You can go to the laboratory. Didn't you say that this experiment is important? Serena and Carlotta will accompany me tonight." Leah turned around and shook her head sensibly.

Shawn's heart softened because of her understanding. "Okay, I can accompany you every day after the experiment succeeds."

After Shawn left, the room fell into silence.

Leah instantly changed her hypocritical smile. She lay on the bed expressionless with thoughts in her heart.

Now she had to think. Who could control Shawn vigorously after she knew the location of Shawn's experiment?

Shawn also had power in the underworld. If she called the police, she would get disastrous consequences. She must find a stronger person to deal with him.

Find Hendrik for help?
