Chapter 257 Misunderstandings
Leah brought the dishes to the table.
Serena’s fondness for Leah increased when she looked at the varieties and smelled the fragrance of
the dishes cooked by Leah.
“Cindy, you’re so wonderful. I would fall in love with you if I was a man.” Serena made funny faces
while she said that. It made Leah laugh.
Serena looked at Leah and smiled widely, “Look how pretty you are when you’re happy. Don’t feel sad
anymore.”
She took the plate from Leah’s hand and nudged her, “Well, go and ask Mr. Howard to be here for his
dinner.”
“Hm, Okay.”
Leah saw Han looking outside the window when she pushed open their room door.
“What are you looking at?”
Han had no intention of answering her.
Leah was not angry, “It’s time for dinner. Let’s go together.”
“I’m not hungry.”
Han stopped Leah’s attempt to push his wheelchair.
She asked worriedly, “You haven’t eaten anything today, are you really not hungry?”
“Come on, accompany me and eat a little.” She coaxed.
“I said, I’m not hungry.” Han’s tone was a bit irritated.

“Where’s Han?” Serena saw no one behind Leah when she closed the door.
“He’s not hungry. I’ll ask him again later.”
Leah handed the spoon to Serena and sat down. The table was filled with dishes but she had no
appetite at all. Her gaze fell on the door of their room. Serena had no appetite too when she saw
Leah’s condition.
“Give him some time.”
“Hm,” Leah answered casually. She ate a few mouthfuls and numbly nodded. Serena was right, Han
need some time.
“Well. Stop worrying. Look how skinny you are,” Serena said as she put more food on Leah’s plate.
Leah left the condominium after dinner. She had to find out what happened to the White Group and Ian.
At the Sanders’ residence.
Mrs. Sanders looked at Sasha with a poker face. No matter what she said, Ian doesn’t allow Sasha to
leave the Sanders.
“Mrs. Sanders, the last incident was a misunderstanding. I did it for Ian.”
Sasha explained even though Mrs. Sanders had an unpleasant looked on her face. Sasha did it for Ian
and the Sanders family. She didn’t expect that Mrs. Sanders would be so ungrateful and blame her for
it.
Mrs. Sanders did not want to bring up this topic anymore. “When will you move out?” She asked
Sasha.
Sasha refused, “Mrs. Sanders, I cannot leave yet.”
Since she moved into the Sanders’ residence, Mrs. Sanders had been harsh on her very frequently.
Mrs. Sanders even asked her to move out directly without giving any respect to Ian.
“Ian no longer had the things you want from him.” Although Mrs. Sanders watched her grew up, she
could not understand her nowadays. She thought Sasha doesn’t want to leave because of money.
Sasha stood up and exclaimed, “Mrs. Sanders, I said I will not leave Ian! I will not leave him, no matter
what you say!” She ran upstairs immediately ignoring Mrs. Sanders.
Leah heard their argument in the hallway. She was stunned. What does Mrs. Sanders mean?
“Ms. White, are you not going in?” The maid asked.
Leah smiled sheepishly while she changed her shoes to enter the living room.
“Mrs. Sanders,” she greeted softly.
“Sarah! Is everything good?” Mrs. Sanders was surprised when she turned around and saw Leah.
She nodded puzzledly. How did Mrs. Sanders know she was kidnapped?
“Come sit here.” Mrs. Sanders led Leah to the sofa.
“I heard that you were kidnapped earlier, I was so worried. Luckily you’re alright now. Otherwise, I really
don’t know how to explain to your mom.”
“My mom doesn’t know, right?” Leah doesn’t want her mother to worry about her.
“I haven’t had the time to tell her anything yet.” Mrs. Sanders was suddenly reminded of it. It was such
a big case, how could she forget about it?
“Don’t tell her. I’m fine now, don’t let her worry.”
Mrs. Sanders pondered over her words and dismissed the idea. She added, “I thought you would never
come to the Sanders’ house anymore.”

The engagement incident had harmed Leah’s reputation in Linkville .
Leah did not have the mood for a catch up now, she asked Mrs. Sanders directly, “Actually I’m here to
know what happened to the White Group. Ian’s office was empty when I went there yesterday.”
Mrs. Sanders already had a general idea of her son had done a good deed anonymously. Leah didn’t
know what had happened. She asked in disbelief again, “You really didn’t know what happened?”
“I really didn’t know anything, Mrs. Sanders.”
Leah could guess that things were not that simple.
Mrs. Sanders sighed and told her the truth. “The people who kidnapped you also threatened Ian. The
company was already in a slump. In addition, the Howard Group suddenly canceled working with us.
The company is now controlled by Shawn.”
Leah got chills when she heard about it. She never expect Shawn would not spare the Sanders.
Before she came here, she wished that Mrs. Sanders could help her persuade Ian, but Shawn had
blocked off all the ways for Han to pull through.
Leah clenched the corner of her shirt, she was full of apologies.
“I didn’t know that. I apologized, Mrs. Sanders. I’m really sorry about it.”
She dragged both Han and Ian into trouble.
Mrs. Sanders patted her back and spoke with a gentle voice, “Silly girl. I’m glad that you’re safe. I don’t
mind it anymore. As for Ian, he is willing to do anything for you.”
Leah looked up, her eyes were filled with doubt.
Is Ian willing to do anything for me? Mrs. Sanders must have misunderstood something. He hated me
so much that he didn’t want to see me again.
Leah decided in her heart, “Mrs. Sanders, I will return what I have owed to the Sanders.”
