“Why don’t we just brush off the matter this time?” Ian frowned and looked at Leah nervously.
She had lost faith in him. Ian was defending Sasha. But it doesn’t matter to her anymore. In the end,
Leah could care less about their apologies.
She raised her head high to make eye contact with Sasha, who was behind him She said softly to him,
“I hope that you will continue to apologize for her, for the rest of your life.”
She took her drafts and stormed off.
He stared at her as she was leaving. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something but nothing
came out.
Han chased after her, taking the same elevator.
“Where do you want to go now?”
He didn’t comfort her, nor did he stand up for her. Han quietly walked by her side, opened the car doors
for her, and asked as he was leaning against the door.
She placed the documents into the bag and thought for a while, “take me home.”
After arriving at their destination, she fastened her seatbelt and thanked him.
As she was about to get out, Han started speaking, “Was it worth it?”
“Excuse me?” She frowned in confusion.
His eyes were staring dead at the road. His hands grabbed tightly at the steering wheel, his eyes
stared far into the distance through the window glass. “Was it worth rejecting me, for him?”
Leah’s eyes furrowed for a second, “You misunderstood, this is my business. It has nothing to do with
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtanyone.”
She walked away quietly after.
Late at night, after finishing her shower, Mrs. White’s phone call came as promised.
Mrs. White kept nagging after she picked up the call, “When are you and Ian getting engaged? I will
only feel at ease when this is settled.”
Leah sighed. She kept the previous engagement a secret to surprise Mrs. White, plus Leah was
worried that she would fly back after the news.
No one would’ve expected the outcome.
“Mom,” she interrupted, “We will not be engaged.”
Mrs. White was stunned for a moment, “What is the matter? You don’t like him? I told you long ago that
he is reliable. Don’t change things suddenly according to your mood. He treated you so well, he waited
two years for you.”
Leah leaned against the head of her bed.
Even Mrs. White thought that Ian would’ve never left her side.
But the truth was that Ian was the one who wanted to break off their engagement. In the end, she was
abandoned.
“Mom, Sasha is back.” She said lightly.
Mrs. White froze for a moment, her eyes widened in surprise. “Sasha is back? Did she look for you?”
Leah shook her head, “No but she looked for Ian instead.”
Her eyebrows twitched a little, she asked hesitantly, “So was she the reason why you couldn’t get
engaged.”
Leah sighed, “Forget about it. In short, we can’t be together.”
Mrs. White went silent. Leah knew what was going on in her head immediately. She narrowed her eyes
slowly and yawned as she was drowsy.
Only then did Mrs. white shift her expression, “In that case, forget about it. I didn’t expect Sasha to
destroy your relationship. What are you going to do now?”
Leah raised her eyelids sluggishly, “Um, let’s just go with the flow. I’m not in a hurry to get married. I’ll
live comfortably even if I stay single forever. All I need is you.” She smiled gently at her after finishing.
Leah looked just like Mrs. White when she was young.
“Okay, my dear. Worthy of the most outstanding man in the world, go have some rest.”
“Goodnight mom.’
“Good night.”
Friday, Leah walked out of White Residence with two suitcases.
Han personally drove here to pick her up
He leaned against the wall and raised an eyebrow when he saw how big her luggage was.
“We are just leaving for five days, why did you bring so much stuff?” He stepped forward to help her
move the luggage into his car.
Leah clapped her hands and smiled at him, “Just in case.”
“Can’t you just buy it when we get there?” He said calmly.
Leah shook her head and looked at him, “Mr. Howard should learn to be diligent.”
“Yeah, because I once had a quite diligent wife with me.”
“……”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe two were silent towards each other during the whole trip. After three hours, they finally arrived at
Dawnville.
The sun shined brightly at Dawnville even if it was currently autumn, not to mention, the temperature
was also quite high for the moment.
Dawnville was famous for its weather feeling like summer regardless of its seasons. Leah had already
done the research for this, therefore she prepared lots of summer clothes for this trip.
Their guide took them to the hotel, which was the only 5-star hotel in Dawnville.
Han had previously handed her the documents in the car, “This is the schedule for our trip here.”
She took it since it was quite important to understand the boss’s schedule.
She scanned through the pages when her eyes narrowed abruptly, she frowned a little,” Is going to the
ocean view part of the schedule?”
Didn’t he have important matters to attend to?
The ocean view was a major scenic spot in Dawnville. It would emit a faint blue light during nighttime.
Leah was no stranger to this spot. She remembered during her time in high school, there was a
description of the ocean view in one of her textbooks. She was completely fascinated by this
phenomenon back in the day.
“Well,” Han leaned back on his chair and said, “There will be a firework show in Ocean view after three
days.”
Leah was surprised. Since when was he so interested in fireworks?
Han felt that her tone was odd. He glanced at her coldly and said, “The boss’s assistant should not pry
into the boss’s businesses.”
“……”
How odd
“As long as you are happy.”
