Ch. 91..95: Begging For A Reconciliation Chapter 91-95

Chapter 91

Leah looked at Ian.

The man in front of her was such a kind person, and his family background and temperament were ideal too.

Clearly, he deserved a better wife yet he had fallen for her, a divorcee and had gone through a miscarriage for Han. Even if he did not feel any disgust toward her, she would have still felt that she was unworthy of him.

Her right to obtain true love had been long since gone.

Leah gave a wry grin and held her hands tightly together, “Ian, I’m sorry…I don’t think I can accept your feelings. Right now, I have been nothing but a disappointment towards myself and the White family,” she sighed.

“That’s alright,” Ian smiled back and said. Such a pleasant smile and yet it somehow looked sad.

He slowly shook his head, “As long as you say yes, I’ll take care of you and Mrs White,” he consoled.

Leah was stunned and confused. “But this would be unfair for you,” she objected.

“I don’t care about fairness.” Ian gently held Leah’s hands and looked at her. “I only want you,” he professed.

An uncomfortable feeling rose deep within her, and she managed to resist the urge to pull her hands out of his.

Leah lifted her head and looked at Ian while gradually showing a strained smile.

Ian was surprisingly satisfied upon seeing that.

…

The news of Ms White and Mr Sanders’ engagement soon spread like wildfire.

After all that happened in the White family, Jane thought it was time to hold a joyful event to lighten up the mood in the family. She decided to host a lavish engagement party and invited the rich families around Linkville.

Many people attended the party.

In the past, the White family was once regarded as a powerful family in Linkville too, and they were surrounded by fame and money. Now, it was reduced to a powerless family in just a month. Most of the guests were here simply to witness this joke.

On the day of the engagement party, Jane meticulously dressed Leah up.

Leah was a natural beauty with delicate pale skin. When she wore the light blue dress, it was as if she were the princess of the ocean. She wore a silver crown and tied up her hair. Leah looked up to her reflection on the mirror and the makeup made her stunningly beautiful to the point where she almost could not recognize herself.

Jane happily held onto her hands, “Beautiful,” she commented.

Leah looked up at Jane from the mirror and forced out a smile.

“Mrs and Ms White, Mr Sanders is ready and most of the guests have arrived.” A maid’s voice was heard outside the door.

“Let’s go.” Jane took Leah’s hand and smiled.

To Leah, this was her first engagement party.

Back when she was with Han, there was never a sense of celebration, let alone an engagement party. Their marriage was hastily done too.

Leah’s palms started to sweat a little as she thought about Han.

She hoped that he would not be here today.

When they arrived downstairs, there was indeed a huge crowd, and most of them had a gloating look on their faces while staring at her.

When the guests saw Leah was doing fine, they started gossiping.

“Wasn’t it rumored that Ms. Sarah killed her own father? How dare she show herself?”

“Wasn’t the killer rumored to be another person instead?”

“I don’t think that rumor is true. I think Jane is simply protecting her daughter,”

“How shameless could she be to throw an engagement party when her dad had passed?”

“Isn’t Mr Sanders Sasha’s best friend since they were children? Why is he marrying Sarah White instead?”

“Who knows if they were in an affair? Sarah White is not an ordinary woman after all,”

“……”

As they did not gossip in a low voice, Leah heard all of their comments.

She clenched her hands slightly.

At that moment, Ian walked over and held onto her hand. “Let’s do this.” He smiled at her.

The ceremony was very simple but tediously long.

When the emcee announced the ring exchange ceremony, Leah suddenly felt a strong gaze upon her.

She instinctively turned around and saw a familiar pair of eyes!

It was Sasha!

In a flash, she caught Sasha’s sinister gaze on her, as if her eyes could burn a hole on her body.

Leah was sure that she saw Sasha there and lifted her dress as she ran down the stage.

Ian could only follow her down when he saw her running down the stage.

She searched around the audience, where Sasha was standing, but she could not find her.

Leah started to feel anxious.

“What happened?” Ian grabbed onto her arm and frowned as he asked her.

Leah looked up at him, “I saw Sasha, I’m sure of it,” she mumbled.

Upon hearing that, Ian frowned. “Let’s finish up the engagement party first. I’ll send someone to find her. If she had appeared tonight, I’ll make sure to catch her,” he sighed and consoled.

“But… What if she escaped? Let’s seal off this place and find her!” Leah panicked.

“The party hasn’t ended yet, Sarah. Don’t worry, we’ll find her,” Ian tried to persuade Leah.

Leah sighed after hearing his reply and she nodded after a moment, agreeing to his suggestion.

Meanwhile, the guests at the side were surprised by their actions and the both of them continued to walk up to the stage.

The ring exchange ceremony was utmost important to Ian.

All of a sudden, there was a fuss around the entrance. The crowd automatically dispersed to make way for someone.

The sound of leather shoes walking could be heard.

After a while, a tall figure slowly appeared in the banquet hall.

Like a king, Han scanned around the room with his cold gaze.

His appearance instantly sent a chill down Leah’s spine.

Even Ian frowned and immediately had his guard up.

Han’s gaze quickly locked onto Leah once he stepped into the venue.

He was not planning on coming today as he did not receive their invitation, but when he heard Sarah’s name, memory fragments started to flash through Han’s mind.

A voice urged him to attend the party.

The feeling was unbelievably strong, and it was confirmed after he saw Leah.

Han lifted his chin up and slowly walked over toward Leah.

 

Chapter 92

No one dared to stop Han along the way as his aura was too overwhelming and his ice cold gaze was locked onto Leah.

Leah looked at him dumbfoundedly, not knowing what his intentions were.

She remained still beside Ian, as Ian pursed his lips and tried to stand in the way of Han.

“Get out of the way.” Han glared coldly at him.

Leah was scared that a fight may start between the two, so she quickly pulled Ian back and looked back at Han while trying to suppress her emotions from showing on her face, “Mr Howard, what brings you here?” She asked.

Han stared profoundly at Leah.

Leah’s face visibly tensed up. She wondered if he remembered something.

“Have I met you before?” Han asked after a moment of silence.

Leah felt relieved after hearing that, while the guests were taken aback by his question.

The question came out like a pickup line, and yet this question was asked by Han Howard to Sarah White.

There had been rumors around Linkville, that Sarah and Han’s relationship was somewhat fishy.

At first, many did not believe that Molly was not someone who would turn a blind eye on this.

But now… It seemed that things were starting to get interesting.

“You must’ve mistaken me, Mr Howard. Although the relationship between the Whites and the Howards are great, I had only joined the White family for a year now. I wouldn’t have been acquainted with you

before that.” Leah’s eyes looked down as she answered back.

Is that so? Han thought, as deep down, he was still confused.

“Sarah, let’s continue on with the ceremony, shall we?” Ian pulled onto Leah’s hand and asked. He wanted to avoid Han from asking more questions in case he remembered something.

Han’s eyes looked down and stared at Ian holding onto Leah’s hand.

He slightly frowned.

Why… Why do I have this feeling whenever they get intimate with each other? Han pondered.

At the same time, Jane noticed the commotion and quickly arrived at the scene, “Han,” she called out.

Her heart almost jumped out when she saw Han from a distance.

She was scared that Han was here to interrupt the ceremony.

“Mrs White,” Han greeted back. He was suffering from selective amnesia and had forgotten the memories relating to Leah, but he remembered Jane.

“Han, why are you here? I heard of the accident and thought that you’d be at home resting. That’s why I never thought of sending the invitation to you,” Jane explained with a smile.

“Don’t worry about it.” Han shook his head.

His gaze once again turned to Leah, “Mrs White, why the sudden engagement?” He frowned and asked.

Jane’s smile instantly froze.

Thankfully, Leah and Ian walked up to the stage once again.

Jane calmed herself down, “You know the things that happened back home. I wanted to find someone reliable to entrust Sarah to, so that I wouldn’t have to be worried anymore.” Jane smiled at Han.

“Speaking of, where’s Sasha?” Han looked around the venue and had yet to see Sasha.

Jane responded with a sad face, “After the incident, Sasha went missing. I’m still worried about her,” she replied.

Han then nodded.

Meanwhile, Leah and Ian were getting ready to exchange their engagement rings on the stage.

He watched as Leah stretched out her pale arm, and Ian took a ring and slowly walked towards her.

Her fair skin complemented the silver-white ring, further highlighting her dazzling beauty.

Yet at this moment, more memories flashed through Han’s mind.

He felt his head throbbing in pain, as if something broke through a barrier.

“Ah!” The woman who was looking at Han let out a scream.

With a thump, Han collapsed onto the floor.

His face turned pale and had a painful look while holding onto his head. He then fainted and remained still on the ground.

“Han, what’s wrong?” Jane got a shock and her face turned pale instantly. “Ian, come and check on Han please.” She hurriedly asked for Ian’s help.

Since Ian was a doctor, Jane’s first thought after seeing Han fainted was to find Ian.

Ian was in the midst of putting the ring on Leah’s finger, when she turned around and looked at the audience.

When she saw Han on the ground, she nervously frowned and bit her lips.

If Molly heard that Han had an accident in the White mansion after attending Leah’s engagement party, she would be furious.

The White family could not take the risk now.

When Leah thought of this, she turned to Ian, “Ian, let’s go check on Han, alright?” She hurriedly pleaded.

Ian looked at the ring he was holding onto, “Alright,” he responded with a forced smile.

He withdrew his hand and went down the stage with Leah. He first dismissed the guests who were gathered around, then proceeded to perform a quick body check on Han.

“How is he?” Jane asked.

“Nothing serious so far.” He frowned slightly.

“Then why did he faint?” Leah was still frowning. She had a feeling that Han was acting somewhat weird recently.

“Probably overworked himself. I’ll prepare some medicine for him first,” Ian replied before leaving to retrieve the medicine.

“Let’s bring him to the guest room first. We shouldn’t have him lying here,” Jane suggested.

Back then, Leah often helped out Han who was drunk.

So she knew the position to easily move Han from the hall.

Upon seeing Leah’s experienced movements in helping Han onto the bed and tucking him in, Jane furrowed her brows.

“Sarah, don’t worry about Han for now,” Jane advised, “Ian will not be happy about this.”

Leah paused her movements.

She awkwardly stood back up and forced a smile, “Alright.”

However, as she got up, her wrist was held onto by someone. The force on her wrist was so strong that she felt pain.

Leah frowned and thought Han was awake as she reached out to let go of his grip.

But when she turned around, Han’s eyes were still closed and his brows were furrowed deeply.

She then was worried and confused.

“Leah,” Han suddenly mumbled out.

Leah instantly stopped moving.

She had a fright before confirming that Han was simply calling out her name unconsciously.

Maybe he remembered something.

Leah felt a chill down her spine and wanted to withdraw her hand. But he gripped her wrist tighter.

“I hate you, Leah…” Han then muttered out again.

Even though it was almost like a whisper, she heard it clearly.

“Han, let go of me.” Leah tried to speak with him.

However, before she could finish, the man who was unconscious a moment ago, suddenly opened his eyes.

Chapter 93

As Leah was standing the closest to Han, the moment he opened his eyes, he met her gaze.

Han’s face was slightly pale. He stared at her for about three seconds before letting go of her hand.

Just now, shards of memory flashed across his mind.

These memories were all related to Leah Murray.

Finally, he noticed Leah’s uncanny face actually coincided with Sarah White’s face.

It was at this moment where Han woke up. As he woke up, he saw Leah’s transformation into Sarah.

Since he was confused whether this was reality or not, he quickly let go of Leah’s wrist.

The moment he let go, Leah felt as if a massive burden was taken from her. She hurriedly took a couple of steps back and looked at him warily.

Seeing her eyes, Han felt as if he was punched in the guts. His head started throbbing again.

Did she hate him?

“Han, you’re finally awake.” Jane’s voice suddenly was heard.

“Am I in the White residence?” Han nodded and looked down.

“Yes.” Jane nodded and smiled, “You fainted at Sarah’s engagement party. We were afraid something bad might’ve happened to your body, so I asked Ian to check on you,” she explained calmly.

“Engagement?!” Han turned to Leah, his gaze darkened in a flash and asked, “You’re engaged?”

As he just regained consciousness, his memories were all messed up. So he couldn’t tell what was true and what was not.

Leah felt nervous about his sinister gaze, but still nodded on his question.

Han threw over the blanket, “How can you be engaged?” He growled angrily.

The smile on Jane’s face froze. She hesitated before asking, “What do you mean, Han? Sarah and Ian like each other and they agreed on the engagement, that’s all.”

What? You’re asking me what’s going on?

“An affinity huh?” Han smiled mockingly and said, “If I remember it correctly, you are Leah Murray. You’d better remember your promise.”

He stared at Leah and his gaze seemed to freeze Leah on the spot.

Leah clenched her fists as she felt cold.

He remembered it all!

“You promised to be my lover, remember? Now that Charlie’s dead, did you think you could go against your promise?” Han chuckled and asked.

“N-No, it’s not that.” Leah’s face turned pale and shook her head as she refuted.

“Leah, you can never escape from me as long as I’m not done with you,” Han said word by word.

Leah was already trembling and all colors had faded from her face.

Upon hearing that, Jane could not bear to see this go on and pleaded, “Han, let her go. She’s still my one and only daughter…”

“Your only daughter?” Han frowned after hearing Jane’s words, “Don’t you have Sasha? If I remembered correctly, this woman infiltrated into your family instead. How could she…” Before he

could finish, Jane interrupted.

“You’re wrong,” Jane sighed, “Sasha isn’t our biological daughter. Sarah is. Ten years ago, Charlie exchanged Sarah and Sasha’s identities, which led to this mistake,” she explained.

Jane’s eyes and tone were sincere throughout and her answer hit Han like a truck.

His face froze in disbelief.

Han suddenly turned towards Leah, his eyes were as if a wolf locking onto its prey.

“So, Charlie’s daughter,” Han gritted, as if forcing his voice out through his teeth, “Is actually Sasha White?”

“Yes,” Jane affirmed.

“How could that be?” Han instinctively refuted.

Meanwhile, the door opened and Ian walked in, “How could that be? We have evidence on this, Mr Howard. Your memories are in a mess since you had brain trauma. But I believe, someone as sharp as you could understand what happened,” Ian said firmly.

Han glanced at Ian as he got frustrated.

“One more thing.” Ian glared at him. It was the first time his aura was on par to Han’s, “Sarah is my fiance. I hope Mr Howard would show mercy on his words. No matter what happened, it was all a misunderstanding. Now, she is the daughter of the Whites, and my fiance,” Ian added on.

Ian stood in front of Leah to cover her and block Han’s gaze from her.

A misunderstanding? Han felt his head throbbing again.

He painfully closed his eyes for a while.

If this has been nothing but a misunderstanding… Then what have I been doing?

“Han, I have contacted Ben,” Jane said, “He’s outside waiting for you now, let me bring you downstairs.”

Han was now in a confused state and he knew staying in the White residence was not the best option.

He pressed his lips together before standing up and following Jane out of the room.

As he was leaving, he turned around to take a glance at Leah.

However, the woman who was once head over heels for him, was now talking with Ian with a relaxed face, which he had never seen before.

Han suddenly felt unpleasant at the sight of the two.

He walked along the cobblestone path after leaving the mansion.

While he passed by the gazebo, he unknowingly glanced around the area.

It was here where Leah once handed him an umbrella before he knew that Leah was Sarah.

It was probably then… That he developed an unusual feeling towards her.

As Han was deep in his thoughts, he found that he had already reached the exit.

“Mr Howard.” Han heard Ben’s voice.

Han got in the car, while rubbing his forehead due to his headache.

“Where are we going?” Han focused on the road after a moment, just to find that they were going neither to the office nor the Howard residence.

“Did you forget?” Ben was stunned by the question, “You have an appointment with Ms Lamere to go for a checkup in the hospital. She has been waiting for you,” Ben reminded.

Right, a checkup! Han abruptly opened up his eyes.

When he was reminded that Molly was pregnant with his child, his face turned gloomy in an instant.

Ben was then confused. What’s going on with Mr Howard? He wasn’t like this when he knew about Molly’s pregnancy.

“Oh, right.” After a while, Han spoke up again, “Send me everything regarding Sarah White and Sasha White by tonight.”

Ben was taken aback once again. Why does Mr Howard suddenly want information about the White family?

Besides, Molly hated whenever Han mentioned anything about the White family, while Han himself despised the daughter of the White family.

Ben knew that things seemed to be going in a bad direction.

Chapter 94

At night, Han returned to his quiet mansion. After a quick shower, he sat down to study the file containing information Ben had gathered about Sarah and Sasha White.

He read the document carefully. He frowned as he flipped through the pages. He was so confused he had to put down the file.

The file suggested he had misunderstood Leah for the past ten years. Since Sasha had swapped her identity with Leah, Sasha should be blamed for Randall’s death, not Leah.

His stomach turned as he thought about how terrified Leah looked when she saw him earlier today. A wave of guilt swept over him.

She saved him from a fire, and instead of thanking her, he almost killed her. Frustrated, he crumpled up the documents before ripping them into pieces.

No, I did nothing wrong. Leah had led him on, even though she knew the truth all along. Perhaps he should ask Leah privately about this.

Despite the minor hiccups at their engagement party, Leah and Ian were considered engaged, and everyone was excited about their union.

“Where do you plan to go for your honeymoon? When would you like to go?” Jane asked as she held Leah’s and Ian’s hands. All three of them were sitting down in the living room.

Leah participated in the conversation half-heartedly. She was secretly relieved when Ian stood up to excuse himself. “Sarah, Mrs. White, I’m sorry, but I have to leave now to attend to some work in the office.”

“Of course, don’t worry about me,” said Jane with a smile. She turned to Leah, “Why don’t you see him off, Sarah?”

Leah nodded and she walked with Ian toward the main door. They remained silent until they were at the main door. Ian beamed at Leah, “Could you give me a hug before I go?”

She was startled. Then, she realized he only wanted to be close to her. She took a step forward to hug him. Seconds later, she was about to let go of him, but he held on to her.

“Not now, please,” Ian said softly. She let him hug her for about a minute before he finally loosened his embrace. He caressed her hair, “Would you wait for me to return?”

“Of course,” she replied. Satisfied, Ian turned to walk toward his car. She stood by the main door until his car was out of her sight.

Someone grabbed her wrists as she turned around. Before she could react, she was forcibly pushed against the stone walls outside the mansion. She moaned as pain shot up her back.

She glanced up to find Han pressing her against the walls, furious. Her blood turned cold. She struggled to get away from him. “What are you doing, Han? Let go of me!”

Han did not know what had gotten into him. He was baffled by the anger boiling inside him when he saw Leah and Ian hugged. From the way she looked at Ian, Han could not help but feel betrayed.

“You wouldn’t let me touch you, but you would gladly let Ian,” Han said as he lifted her head so she was forced to look at him. “You love to fool around with other men, don’t you?”

Leah’s heart sank. She tolerated him in the past because she loved him and she thought she was responsible for Randall’s death. Now she had no reason to hold back.

“Han, you’ve crossed the line!” She glared at him, speaking through gritted teeth. “We are done! Since you already know what happened between Sasha and me, you have no right to be mad at me.”

She was no longer his obedient wife. Han was stunned for a moment before collecting himself. He sneered, “We are not done until I say we are. We are still legally married, remember?”

To his dismay, she laughed, “Yes, Leah was your wife, but she is also dead. I am Sarah White, and we are not married.”

“Fuck you!” Han could not deny what she said. Leah lifted a triumphant smile and she continued, “Besides, I believe you are engaged with Miss Lamere, so we should be over by now.”

Han stared at her, trying to read her emotions. He let go of her and he snickered. “Did you do this to get back at me?”

“What did you mean?” She was perplexed.

“You got engaged with Ian to get back at me for getting engaged with Molly, right?” He sounded so sure of himself. Leah was at a loss for words for a moment, baffled by his assumptions.

“I don’t care what you think,” she looked at him determinedly, “I only want you to be out of my life, Mr. Howard. If you want to make things right again with me, all I ask is for you to get out of my life and I’ll be grateful.”

Han’s face fell. He said with a menacing tone, “Being stubborn does you no good.”

“I am not being stubborn.”

“You said you wanted to be my lover.”

“Things have changed. Now I want nothing to do with you. Would you please leave me alone?”

Han was taken aback. He curled his lip, “You don’t always get what you want.”

“What do you want with me?” Leah asked with an alarmed face.

“You tricked me into marrying you. You ruined my life. Did you think you could get away so easily?” He lifted a cruel smile. “However, I won’t force you to do anything you don’t want to.”

Leah was concerned. “You’ll see. You will be begging me,” said Han before turning to leave.

Knowing Han as a man of his word, Leah was a bundle of nerves for the next three days. She was expecting to see Han again, but it was Mrs. Sanders who visited.

Mrs. Sanders was sobbing when she entered the house. Before Leah could ask, Mrs. Sanders kneeled before Leah abruptly. She pleaded, “Sarah, please save my Ian!”

 

Chapter 95

What Mrs. Sanders had said threw Leah off. She knew Han was up to something, but she did not expect this. Leah quickly helped Mrs. Sanders up. “What happened? Tell me.”

Mrs. Sanders could not stop sobbing. She shook like a leaf as she tried to speak, “Someone called me this morning saying they have kidnapped Ian. They want you to go to this place or Ian’s gone.”

She took out her phone and showed Leah a text message with an address. Leah read the address, and she noticed it was that of a warehouse.

“Is Ian kidnapped?” Leah said.

Mrs. Sanders nodded. “They asked for you specifically to go there alone. If we tell anyone else about this, they’ll kill Ian! Please, Sarah, please help me to save Ian. You’re the only one to save him now!”

Leah held Mrs. Sanders’ hand and she sighed. “Don’t worry, Mrs. Sanders. I will save Ian and I will bring my fiancé back safely.”

“Thank you, Sarah,” Mrs. Sanders said, teary-eyed. Leah saw her off before returning to the house.

As Leah entered the house, Jane walked into the living room to find Leah ashen-faced with worry. “What happened?” Jane asked, concerned for her daughter.

“Mom.” Leah paused for a moment and she decided not to burden Jane with what happened to Ian. Jane had been through a lot, and Leah did not want her to worry.

“It’s nothing. Ian called to ask me to go out with him.” Leah lied. Jane did not seem to suspect anything. She smiled, “Great! You should spend more time together.”

Leah forced a smile. “I’ll head out now. See you later!” Jane nodded, “Have fun!”

As she got into a cab afterward, Leah gave the driver the address to the warehouse. The driver glanced at her with a worried face. “Are you sure you want to go there alone? I heard it’s a nasty place. It’s not safe for a lady to be there by herself.”

“What do you mean?” Leah asked curiously. The driver answered, “I heard it’s a gangster hangout. I’m not sure how dangerous these people are, but it’s not safe for you to be there alone.”

Leah frowned. She took out her phone and she found the familiar number she did not save as a contact. She thought about contacting Han, but she eventually decided against it.

She recalled what Han had said to her three days ago. He might have had something to do with Ian being kidnapped. After all, he wanted to get back at her.

Leah shook her head. She told the driver to bring her to the warehouse anyway. Moments later, the cab stopped in front of an alley.

The driver pointed to the road ahead, “Walk to the end of this alley, turn right and you’ll see the warehouse. This alley is too narrow for a car to pass through, so you’ll have to get off here.”

Leah nodded and she paid him before getting out of the cab. She took a deep breath before walking toward the warehouse. The cab drove away, and everything went quiet.

It was dark and gloomy in the alley. She held her breath as she walked cautiously. Suddenly, something fell behind her and she jumped. She turned to find a steel pipe on the ground.

“Who’s there?” She asked, her heart racing. A man was slowly approaching her. She could nobt see his face clearly under the shadow, but she could tell who he was from the way he moved.

“Han!” Leah shouted. Han halted and he picked up his pace. He looked surprised to find her there. “What are you doing here?”

Leah raised an eyebrow. “What are you doing here?” She was here to save Ian. There was no reason for Han to be here, unless he was the one who kidnapped Ian to get back at her.

Han didn’t answer. He stared at her, “It’s a trap.” Before Leah could respond, Han grabbed her arm, trying to pull her away.

However, they were too late. Four gangsters blocked their way, each holding a steel pipe. Han turned and he realized they were surrounded. Leah’s face turned pale. “What’s happening?”

“We’re trapped,” Han replied coldly. Someone called him this morning saying they had kidnapped Leah. He was told to get to the warehouse to save her. However, instead of finding her at the warehouse, he bumped into her in this alley.

Leah was puzzled. She glanced at the gangsters surrounding them, “What should we do now?” Without hesitation, Han replied, “You should run. I’ll hold them off.”

Looking distraught, she whispered to him, “Ian is in the warehouse, and I have to save him.”

Han seemed annoyed. Before he could say anything, the gangsters charged at them. Han pushed her aside, kicked one of the gangsters, and snatched his steel pipe.

Using the steel pipe as a weapon, Han took the other gangsters down effortlessly. He pushed Leah forward, ordering her to run.

She refused to follow his order. She had promised Mrs. Sanders to bring Ian back safely. She had to go to the warehouse to save Ian.

She pushed against Han to run toward the warehouse. Han looked at her with disbelief, “Where are you going?”

Leah glanced at him apologetically, “I’m sorry, Han. I have to save Ian.”
