Chapter 246 The Danger is Near
“Mr. Ford, get in the car.” Mr. Carling opened the car door.
Shawn held Leah’s hand tightly, shook his head, and was reluctant to get in the car. “I want Beautiful
Sister comes together with me.”
Leah drew back her arms, but Shawn gripped tighter. From a man’s point of view, it was clear what
Shawn was looking forward to.
Mr. Carling, an exceptionally stern, darkened gaze, said, “Mr. Ford, most probably Ms. White has
something to do, and you can look for her another day.”
However, Shawn held Leah’s hand and was unwilling to release her.
Leah was touching Shawn’s crown gently with hesitation. “I can send you home, but there’s a condition
attached.”
Shawn winked his eyes and stared at Leah in doubt.
Upon this, Leah continued to say, “You don’t go anywhere as you like. Please get Mr. Carling to call me
if you want to see me.”
Shawn’s heart trembled and smiled stiffly, but he was well in covering up his feeling.
This woman was foolish, and no wonder she fell for Han Howard. Not only that, she was in bad taste
for selecting Han.
Later, Shawn got into the car, and she followed him.
On the road, Shawn elaborated various topics, including good food and games available at the Ford
residence, in his effort trying to distract Leah.
Leah wasn’t bothering. Since Shawn was too passionate, Leah attended to him reluctantly with one or
two words.
When the car had stopped, Leah wanted to get down but found Shawn holding her hand.
“It’s time for me to go home,” Leah explained.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShawn didn’t speak but pulled Leah into the villa.
The childish expression faded on his face, and his dark eyes turned into cold gazes, and he signaled to
the men behind while the courtyard door was slowly closing.
When facing each other with Shawn, Leah was clear and understood suddenly. Shawn wasn’t in
memory loss.
With a cautious look, Leah calmed herself in time and intuitively covered her belly with her hands.
"What're you going to do?"
Was it because Shawn knew that the baby belonged to him?
Leah’s heart sank gradually. If Shawn wanted the child in her belly, she couldn’t counterweight him.
Having seen that, Shawn crossed his legs and sat on the couch while scrutinizing Leah. “It's fine, don't
worry. You know, why don't you stay here a few day and be my companion.”
In the beginning, Shawn disagreed with Jackson Lamere’s plan. But it was his ultimate wish to witness
Han's failure.
“What do you mean?” Leah breathed a sigh of relief as if he did not know the truth.
“Send Ms. White upstairs.” Shawn didn’t explain but instructed his man beside him.
Leah’s expression was frozen, staring the maid at her side furiously.
“Please be obedient, so you won't suffer as much. I can't guarantee what will happen next, you know.”
Said Shawn.
“You scumbag!”
Shawn pursed the corner of his mouth, stood up, and stepped forward to Leah; he raised his hand to
pick up Leah’s cell phone easily.
Subsequently, Leah shrank her gaze and followed the maid went upstairs.
Shawn switched off the phone abruptly and threw it aside while Jackson walked out from a corner of
the house.
“Give me the phone.” Jackson stretched his hand.
“No rush, and wait for longer.”
Before the failure of Han Howard, Shawn wanted him to be torturous.
Jackson inquired in a stern tone, “Waiting for what?”
Jackson was harmed by Han. He lost everything and could not return home; seeing the opportunity for
revenge in his eyes, he had the great desire to turn Han similar to him.
Shawn cheered, and his voice turned to relax. “Slow down. It’s a bonus for him if asking him to come
now.”
Shawn competed with Han for so long, and it was time to resolve it.
In the hospital, Charlotte awakened, and slowly the indicators in her body started to back to normal.
Charlotte was lying in the patient’s bed, in her husky voice, “Daddy, mommy.” Molly breathed out in
relief, approached her, and embraced her tightly.
Han accompanied Charlotte patiently in watching television for a while, and a kid who had undergone
surgery would quickly be fallen asleep soundly.
Upon this, Han switched off the television and covered Charlotte with a quilt attentively; he then closed
the door and walked out of the ward. Molly was tagging him out without further delay.
It was not easy to have Han stay back, and Molly was not about to let him go just like that. “Han, it’s
already late at night. Where are you going?”
Although Han had warned Molly countless times about not gauging the affairs, it fell on deaf ears.
Han didn’t stop his steps. He walked into the elevator and disappeared from Molly’s eyesight.
Molly darkened her eyes, and it was the same as before. She couldn’t see herself in Han’s eyes.
It was the crack of dawn when Han arrived the Rose Bay. He pushed the bedroom door, it was empty
inside.
Han twitched his brows while taking out his cell phone and dialed to Leah.
“Hi, the number you have dialed is switched off.”
“Hi, the number you have dialed is switched off.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe female-voice auto attendant repeated the reminder to Han.
Then he called Ben’s number, but it was the same, and it couldn’t be connected.
His heart felt a gush of discomfort, and he called another number. “Help me to check where Leah
went.”
The atmosphere in the large bedroom was tense, and Han stood in front of the window with a darkened
face.
After a moment, the quietness in the bedroom was interrupted by the phone ringing sound. “How’s it?”
Han asked anxiously.
“Ms. White and Ben had gone to Eastdel Amusement Park.”
The amusement park's main gate was closed because it wasn’t business hours yet.
Han stopped the car and got out of it. A string of footsteps sounded not far away, and a group of men
wearing uniforms stood behind Han.
The man at the front bent down and greeted, “Mr. Howard.”
Alfred took out the amusement park's main gate’s key, opened the lock speedily, and stared at Han.
“Split and search,” Han said with a frosty tone.
The men brought by Alfred dispersed quickly at the amusement park. They efficiently searched every
possible place capable of hiding people, but they couldn’t see Leah.
Hearing Alfred’s report, Han's heart sank. His stare from the corner of his eyes caught the presence of
the surveillance camera on top. There should be footage to be traceable, while the two living people
wouldn’t have disappeared suddenly.
“Go check at the monitoring room.”
Alfred opened the monitoring room, switched on the computer, and he was operating the necessary
systematically.
“How’s it?” Han asked before Alfred opened his mouth.
“Mr. Howard, the surveillance had been cleared by somebody earlier.” Alfred’s fingers were stiff.
The expression in Han was terrible. Leah and Ben's disappearance was planned and someone tricked
them into coming to the amusement park and taking them away.
