Chapter 142
Someone knocked on the door, and Leah’s clear voice invited them in. It was Shane who pushed the
door open, and as soon as Leah laid eyes on him, she had a premonition. Leah and Shane had always
met privately throughout the years, making this their first open appearance together.
“Leah?”
“Shane?”
They spoke simultaneously and then said in unison, “You’re still the same.”
They exchanged smiles, displaying their strong understanding of each other.
Liliane’s curious eyes observed Shane, who wore gold-rimmed glasses and a well-tailored suit, exuding
refinement and gentlemanliness.
“Mom, who’s this?” asked Liliane.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLeah openly explained, “This is Shane, my college classmate. Shane, this is my daughter, Liliane.”
Shane generously complimented, “Your daughter bears a striking resemblance to you when you were
young.
Leah smiled and replied, “My daughter inherited her father’s good genes and looks even better than I
did in my youth!”
“Mom…” Liliane blushed.
Leah knew that Shane must have come with a purpose but was wary of raising suspicion if they
communicated directly, so he decided to visit in person. She handed the wedding planning proposals
prepared by the wedding company to Liliane.
“Liliane, take a look at these first. I’ll have a chat with Uncle Shane.xo.com fast update”
As old classmates, it was only natural for Leah and Shane to catch up when they met.
“Mom, it’s already time for dinner. Why don’t you invite Uncle Shane to have a meal?” suggested
Liliane.
“Do I need you to remind me? Just take a good rest!” said Leah.
In front of others, Leah and Shane pretended not to be familiar at all. As soon as they entered the
restaurant’s private room, they dropped the facade and became familiar and close again.
Shane poured a glass of water for Leah attentively and looked at her charming face with concern.
“Leah, don’t worry too much about Liliane’s illness.”
Since Liliane’s condition worsened, Leah had trouble eating and sleeping, and there were faint dark
circles under her eyes. She took a sip of water and scolded him, “Shane, don’t pretend to comfort me.
Let me tell you, I’m different from you. Liliane’s my only daughter. Unlike you, with a wife and son,
Liliane is my everything. If something happens to her, I don’t want to live anymore.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Leah, Liliane’s my daughter too. She didn’t grow up by my side, and I owe her a lot. Don’t worry. I will
find a suitable heart as soon as possible. Once she undergoes the heart transplant surgery, all the
problems will be solved.” Shane comforted Leah softly. “Liliane needs someone to take care of her, so
you have to take good care of yourself as well.”
Leah looked deeply into Shane’s eyes and sighed weakly. “Shane, I plan to divorce that useless man
Anstey after Liliane gets married to Bradley.”
If it were not for the fact that Leah needed to give Liliane a legal identity, she would never have married
that useless man Billy in the first place. She thought she could control that useless man, but
unexpectedly, he had a secret daughter to disgust her!
Since that was the case, she should not be blamed for being heartless and unfaithful.
Shane thought about his recent discovery in the prison hospital and reminded her, “The Warner butler
came to our prison hospital.”
As soon as Leah heard Shane say this, all the jumbled thoughts in her mind disappeared instantly.
“Why did he go to the hospital? Why are you only telling me now?”
Seeing Leah so flustered, Shane firmly kissed her on the face and confidently said, “What we could do
five years ago, we can do now. What are you panicking about? You have me for everything!
