“Sarah… Sarah?” Leah heard a soft voice calling to her in her trance.
She tried her best to slowly open her eyes.
The first thing she saw was Jane’s worried gaze. “You’re finally awake, Sarah. You almost
scared me to death,” she sighed in relief.
Leah looked around her surroundings, and she saw white walls and advanced medical
instruments.
She chuckled a little. Within half a year, the number of times she went to the hospital was
almost more than that in the previous ten years.
However, she remembered she was supposed to be killed by the fugitive.
She also remembered Han’s cold gaze before she blacked out.
“How was I saved?” Leah asked in a hoarse voice.
“Well, you see, it seems that we have mistaken Han. It’s not that he wanted you to die,
but he wanted to distract the fugitive and catch him off guard. It’s really all thanks to Han
that you’re alive,” Jane quickly explained to Leah.
After hearing that, Leah was stunned for a while.
In the end, she was still saved by Han.
She clutched her hands under the sheets. She knew that Han saved her since Jane was at
the scene too.
If he had known that I’m Leah…
Meanwhile, in the doctor’s office, Han, who had gotten news that Leah was fine, was
getting ready to leave. However, the doctor stopped him.
“Is that lady your wife?” The doctor asked Han with a serious tone.
“No…” Han slightly frowned and was just about to explain before the doctor interrupted.
“Her body is quite fragile and weak now. Seems like she had a miscarriage before and was
traumatised. Be sure to pay attention to her condition from now on. Give her some
supplements and time to rest, or else it will be hard for her to recover again,” the doctor
continued.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUpon hearing the doctor’s words, Han’s words were stuck in his throat.
Miscarriage? You’re telling me that Sarah White had a miscarriage?
Even though Ben was unable to find her past records, the last thing he would expect was
that she had a history of miscarriage.
A thought quickly flashed through Han’s mind.
“When did she have a miscarriage?” he promptly asked the doctor.
The doctor looked at him, confused. “Around half a year ago, it seems. Why? Are you not
aware of this either?” the doctor replied.
Han’s expression turned gloomy after learning that.
Half a year ago, that woman also had a miscarriage.
……
Jane fed Leah some porridge and peeled an orange for her.
A nurse walked in, “Mrs White, the doctor would like you to sign the patient’s medical
record please,” she said politely.
“Of course,” Jane responded and walked out of the room.
Soon after, the door swung open again.
Leah had not finished swallowing the orange slice she was eating. When she lifted her
head and saw Han’s cold gaze, she almost choked on the orange.
“Why… Why are you here?” Leah stuttered as she subconsciously gripped onto the
blanket.
“Are you scared of me?” Han calmly asked while looking at her.
“Of course not, it’s just a misunderstanding,” Leah awkwardly smiled as she replied.
If there was a mirror in front of her, she knew how awkward her face must have looked like
right now.
“The doctor said you had a miscarriage half a year ago.” Han ignored her reply and went
straight to the point.
Leah’s face instantly turned pale.
Her hands under the sheet were clutching tightly and had started sweating.
Han could see that she was panicking. He sat down in front of her and calmly stared at her
with a trace of pressurizing her.
“I didn’t know you were married,” he pressed on.
Leah knew she couldn’t hesitate any longer.
She took a deep breath, “Mr. Howard, are you here to check on my injuries? I was an
orphan, so of course I had a gloomy past. And my miscarriage… we’re all adults now, is
that surprising to you?” She tried her best to remain calm as she replied.
Han was silent for a while before grinning lightly.
“Indeed, it’s not something odd, but…” Han responded and changed the conversation
topic, “Very coincidentally, there was this woman that I hated who also had a miscarriage
around half a year ago.”
Leah stared back at him, calmly listening to what he was saying. Deep down, she was
panicking.
“What happened to her then?” She asked.
“Why are you curious to find out?” Han responded cunningly.
Leah did not know whether Han knew what she was thinking.
However, she had to continue on, “No, but knowing what you’re able to do, I’m sure
people that you hate must’ve met a terrible end,” Leah answered.
“She’s dead,” Han said.
Leah went silent for a moment. “If she’s already dead, why are you still talking about her
then?” She looked at Han and inquired.
Han suddenly chuckled and grinned. “So what if she’s dead? Even if she dies, she could
never repay what she had owed me. Besides…”
He stood up and glared at Leah before continuing, “If I know that she is alive and
continues to trick me, then her fate will be worse than death,” He warned.
Leah felt a chill run down her spine.
She was not sure if Han was directing those words at her, but she knew he suspected her.
Han left the room after he finished talking.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was still a mystery whether Sarah White was a daughter of the White family. Before he
could get confirmation, he would not do anything toward her.
Leah was still in a trance, even after Han had left for a long time.
She did not expect Han to hate herself to that extent.
She sighed and stepped out of her bed. While she put on her slippers, she noticed
something on the floor.
It was right where Han had sat.
She walked over and picked it up. It was a keychain.
Leah was confused.
If she remembered correctly, she had made the keychain and gave it to him during his
birthday two years ago.
At that time, he showed his disgust and hatred towards the keychain.
Why would he still carry it then?
After thinking about it, she decided to return the keychain to Han. He had just left, so it
should be easy to catch up to him.
Leah went out of the ward and walked toward the staircase.
“Han, what took you so long?” All of a sudden, she heard a sweet voice.
It was Molly’s voice!
Before Leah’s mind could react, her body had instinctively hid herself in the stairwell.
Thankfully, she was well hidden. At the same time, she could also see the two of them
clearly.
“I left something behind, so I had to go get it,” Han stood in front of Molly and explained.
“Hmm, why do you even care about that woman? Even if she dies, it’s none of your
business anyway! You have to make it up for me since I’ve been waiting for you for so
long,” Molly snuggled up onto Han.
Han lowered his head, “How do you want me to make it up for you then?” He asked with a
deep voice.
When Molly heard this, she was pleasantly surprised and immediately wrapped her arms
around his neck, and leaned towards his face with pursed lips.
Leah held her breath as she looked at the two people making out in front of her.
