As usual, Han’s face was as cold as ice. He looked at the receptionists who blushed and asked in a
hoarse voice, “Did you stop her from coming into the office?”
Hearing that, the receptionists were stunned and nodded subconsciously.
“Haven’t you read the company’s circular?” Han frowned, and his face darkened.
“What company’s circular?” One of the receptionists asked subconsciously.
Upon hearing the answer, Ben, who was behind Han, was stupefied. He was so scared that he did not
dare to say anything.
The receptionists’ faces turned pale.
Ben had no choice but to brave himself and said, ”That lady is the newly hired chief jewelry designer.
She is here to see Mr. Howard today.”
Hearing that, all the receptionists’ faces darkened. “We’re so sorry, Mr. Howard. We are not aware of
it,” the receptionists kept apologizing.
Han frowned and gave them a hostile glare. His face contorted with rage. Leah rarely came to look for
him, but they drove her away instead. It might be the last chance for him to meet her.
“Don’t do that again!” After saying that, Han left.
In the car, Ben sat beside Han, trembling with fear. He thought Han was in a better mood just now. Why
did he suddenly change?
”Ben!” All of a sudden, Han’s hoarse voice was heard.
Ben had been sitting upright cautiously. When he heard Han call his name, he felt he was facing a
formidable enemy. His palms were wet with sweat.
“Yes, Mr. Howard, what can I do for you?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA complicated look appeared on Han’s face. He stared at Ben’s face for a long time before he looked
away with a somewhat strange expression.
Ben did not dare to ask anything since Han remained silent. For a moment, Ben felt very
uncomfortable.
Just as Ben was fidgeting, Han finally opened his mouth. “Don’t I look good?” Han asked in a stiff and
awkward tone.
Hearing that, Ben was speechless
“Huh?” Han frowned.
Ben had no choice but to quickly answer, “You’re very handsome. In fact, I can’t find another person as
handsome as you in Linkville.”
“Really?”
Ben could not help but be rendered speechless
When Leah returned home, she had a headache again. She took two pills of paracetamol before
turning on her computer and saw an email from Ben.
Ben sent her all kinds of information about jewelry designs from the company. Not only that, but he also
told her the date of commencing work. After glancing at it, Leah found that she could not concentrate at
all. She felt a sharp pain in her temples, and her head seemed to burst. The medicine was not working
at all.
Leah often had migraine. However, she got better every time she took some medicine and slept.
Nonetheless, her body seemed different somehow that day.
Leah had no choice but to close the computer and decided to go to sleep. However, as soon as she
stood up from the chair, she blacked out.
Han’s Maybach stopped at the entrance of the hotel. Ben followed him out of the car with a pile of
documents and a laptop.
With a gloomy face, Han strode into the hotel. The lift went straight to the presidential suite on the top
floor of the hotel.
Inside the lift, Ben reported, “Mr. Howard, I’ve sent all the materials to Ms. White.”
“Did she reply to you?”
“No.” Ben broke into a cold sweat.
Hearing no reply from Leah, Han frowned slightly. However, he left that matter behind and walked out
of the lift.
As soon as Han swiped the card and entered the presidential suite, he saw Shawn sitting on the couch
in pajamas. Shawn seemed to be in a good mood and was about to open a bottle of champagne.
Seeing Han come in, Shawn asked, “Mr. Howard, would you like a drink?” If one did not notice the
coldness on Han’s face, he might think it was a reunion of old friends.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t. With a cold look, Han glared at Shawn and went straight to the point, “You
caused that woman in trouble?”
Shawn was wearing a pajama with his collar slightly open. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and
looked totally unconcerned. He opened the champagne and poured himself half a glass. Leaning
against the sofa, he swirled the glass while tasting the wine casually.
A look of impatience appeared on Han’s face.
“Han, we have known each other for almost… 10 years? Come on, we are old friends. Don’t you really
want to have a drink with me?” Shawn asked again.
Hearing that, Han’s expression got even colder.
“I’m so sad. You are the only person I know in Linkville. I was happy that you picked me up today, but
then I found out you came because of a woman.” Shawn shook his head pitifully.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I don’t have time for you.” Han gave Ben a look. Ben immediately understood and handed him the
document. Han then threw the pile of documents on the table.
“What’s this?” Shawn asked with a frown.
“Your gift.” Han stressed the word “gift” in a cold voice.
A trace of doubt flashed across Shawn’s face. He picked up the document and flipped through it. His
face darkened at once.
The file had all evidence of Shawn’s malicious slanders against Leah, and his relationship with Sunny.
“I’m impressed that you got all these. But what can you do? What can you do to me?” Shawn asked,
trying to calm himself down.
“I’m here to warn you!” Han was stern and he said coldly, “You can do anything to me. But if you dare to
hurt her again, I don’t mind breaking my promise.”
“You!” Shawn was shocked. “You do this just for a woman?”
Nonetheless, Han glared at Shawn quietly. In fact, he never took Shawn seriously. “I don’t care about
others, but you can’t mess with this woman,” Han repeated.
Hearing that, Shawn’s expression changed.
“And for your information, I have sent Sunny to prison.” After saying that, Han turned around and left.
The door of the presidential suite was closed. Shawn’s face turned gloomy. A moment later, he
smashed the glass in his hand on the ground. He knew what Han meant. He knew Han wanted to tell
him that he could not protect Sunny if he was against him. He felt a real slap in the face.
After leaving the hotel, Han leaned back in his seat inside the car.
“Mr. Howard, do you want to go back to the company?” the driver asked cautiously.
“Um…” Han answered. However, at the thought of something, he suddenly said, “No, let’s go to the
White residence.”
