The bright sunlight shone on her face; it made her face look even paler than usual.
Seeing how worried and panicked she was, it truly pained Serena's heart.
After a while, Serena signed and answered, "Leah, he's fine. His injury would recover in no time if he
rested well."
Serena was still talking, but Leah did not pay attention to her anymore. She was relieved that Alfred
was fine.
She recalled how he protected her; she was touched, and her eyes reddened with joy. "That's great..."
Serena's eyes reddened upon seeing Leah's reaction.
If she ever gets to know the truth in the future, will she be able to withstand it?
Serena held her in her arms, and she tried to suppress her sadness. "Alright, please take care of
yourself."
Serena had finally made up her mind.
Okay, I'll keep it a secret as long as I can.
There was a delicious food smell all around the hospital.
Serena brought Leah a light dinner, but she had no appetite.
"Thank you." She just took a few bites, and then she put down the spoon and fork.
Seeing that she was still depressed, Serena forcefully forced her to eat. "Finish your porridge now; if
not, I might not agree with your plan for the studio."
"After all, if my partner's physical fitness is too poor, I'll feel that I can't rely on her."
Leah knew that she was being kind to her; she felt heartwarming. "Okay, I'll finish the food."
I'm so grateful for having such a good friend by my side during my darkest time.
After she finished her food, Serena prepared to go home.
"There's still no update from the police... The culprit is not caught yet, so you should be careful."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore Serena left, she solemnly warned Leah not to get out of the ward.
Leah was taken aback, and she forced a smile. "If this is the case…"
She should have expected it; the police could not get any leads for Anna's car accident either.
After Serena left, the ward fell into silence again, and the sunlight was getting dim outside of the
window.
The night fell, she stared at the moon, and she was somehow feeling uneasy. She could not stop
thinking about the scene where Alfred saved her life.
I have to see for myself that he's okay; until then, I can rest assured.
Early the next day, Serena brought her breakfast to visit her again.
"After you go through some more tests this morning, you can be discharged from the hospital in the
afternoon."
She breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly. "Do you know which ward Alfred is in? I want to visit
him before I leave the hospital."
"After all, he risked his life to save me. I want to thank him in person." She was talking softly while
eating porridge; she sounded cheerful and relaxed.
Serena froze as she panicked, and she blurted, "N-No. You can't visit him."
If she insists on visiting Alfred, she will soon know that he's dead!
Her unnatural tone raised Leah's suspicion. Leah put down the bowl of porridge and asked in
confusion, "Why can't I go see him?"
She thought of something, and her face turned pale. "Could it be that he is actually severely injured
now, so I can't visit him?"
Serena was stunned. She was about to hastily explain, but someone spoke before her.
"It's not your business."
Han pushed the door open, and he entered the ward with a gloomy expression.
Leah was startled; she then lowered her head.
Oh… I forget that I'm a crown to him. But why does he lose so much weight in one night? Why does he
seem so miserable?
Han saw the sadness in her eyes, but he had to act cruelly for her sake.
He slowly approached her bedside and looked down at her coldly. "Leah, are you not going to stop until
you kill him?"
"Everyone who has anything to do with you will end up miserable."
"He's my man, so it's none of your business."
"Mind your own business and get the money ready as soon as possible."
It was rare for him to speak a lot, and all of his words tore her heart apart.
She was devastated at his cruel words; her hands were trembling. "Okay, I got it."
"As you wish, I won't be involving myself with him as long as he's fine."
Maybe he's right; I'll only bring more bad luck to Alfred.
Serena was not angry when she saw him treating Leah like this; she was even grateful for him.
Before leaving the ward, she looked at him expectantly.
So is this how he tries to protect Leah from blaming herself?
After making sure that Leah had completely given up the idea of visiting Alfred, Han also left.
All the check-ups were done, and she was fine.
After being discharged from the hospital, she was escorted by Han's bodyguards to Wisteria Court.
She saw a few bodyguards standing by her door, and she smiled mockingly.
Is he planning to keep a watch on me until I can pay off my debt?
Lucy also frowned and glanced at the bodyguards outside the door, and she quickly closed the door.
She walked up to Leah and asked worriedly, "Ms. White, are you okay?"
She was comforted when she saw Lucy's care for her. She smiled faintly and said, "I'm fine."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCarlotta woke up from her afternoon nap at that moment, and she rubbed her eyes with her tiny hands.
She was surprised when she saw Leah, and she threw herself at her. "Mommy! You're finally back! I
miss you so much!"
Holding her tiny body, Leah's mood was lightened. She asked gently, "I miss you too. What do you
want to eat for dinner?"
"Mashed potato!"
When the night fell, Leah was carrying Carlotta and walked around the living room. She received a call
from Anna.
"Lucy, please bring Carlotta to bed first." She glowered while she saw the phone call. She went over to
the balcony to answer the phone.
"Ms. Lancaster, I'm sorry about the car accident." She did not mean it, but the car accident happened
when she was driving the car.
Anna is such a nice person, but she had to endure such a disaster because of me...
Anna smiled sarcastically at her words, but she answered softly, "It's okay, I know you didn't mean it.
How about we hang out together tomorrow? And we can go look for my house's decorations."
Leah glanced at Carlotta's room, and she remained silent. After a while, she agreed, "Okay."
She originally wanted to spend time with Carlotta tomorrow.
Anna smiled as she heard Leah agree to meet with her. "Sorry for the trouble, but I have to set up the
house decorations as I'll be marrying Han soon."
Her words were tearing Leah's heart apart. Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
She raised her head and looked up at the bright moon in the sky; she was feeling sad and alone.
Isn't it normal for him to get married to her? Why am I so sad?
"Okay, I'll be there on time."
