Chapter 229
Jackson had a look of defeat as he looked at the officers who had circled him.
It's all over for me now.
Han had gotten all of this ready so that he could send me straight to prison and keep me there for the
rest of my life!
I've poured all of my effort and time into this for the last ten or so years. Previously. I had tried to use
the Howard Group for money laundering, but I failed. Then. I found a way to expand my influence in the
group by working with Han and becoming a shareholder.
All of that was just so I could become the President of Pasteria someday and have full control of the
economic activities. I'd have this country in the palm of my hand!
Yet. all of my plans were destroyed by this young man when I was only one step away from
succeeding!
How could I just stand and watch all my hard work go to waste like this?
I can't let them take me in just like this! I still have a chance to get everything back as long as I don't let
them capture me!
"Han Howard, this isn't the end of me! I'm going to make you pay for this!" Jackson said through gritted
teeth and clapped twice loudly.
Upon his signal, more than a dozen men dressed in all black stood up in different spots across the hall.
Han glanced around the place.
I've implemented several security measures to prevent Jackson from sneaking his men into the venue.
I guess those aren't enough.
Jackson's men swiftly moved to hold back the officers of the Bureau of Investigation. Meanwhile, some
of them escorted Jackson out of the hall.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Mr. Howard, what should we do now?" Ben asked in an anxious voice.
We'll face more troubles in the future if Jackson gets away now.
A deep frown formed on Han's forehead. He glanced in the direction of where Jackson was heading to.
Then, he said in a steely voice. "Get him!"
Jackson got into a car outside the hall. Then, his men drove him to the nearby port right away. Han and
Ben followed closely behind them in a car.
"Mr. Howard. I think Jackson is trying to leave the country!" Ben said with a worried look on liis face.
It'll be impossible for us to find and capture Jackson if he sneaks out of our country!
The two of them pulled up at the port and quickly got out of the car to chase after Jackson. However.
Jackson's group was greater in number, and they easily blocked Han and Ben in their way.
Han tried to push past those men forcefrilly whilst shouting at Jackson. "Are you really leaving the
country? Do you not care about what happens to Molly or your wife?"
Jackson had a pained expression on his face for a split second. Then, he bit his lip and said. "I know
they'll understand why I'm doing this."
Han stared at the man with a piercing gaze.
He claims that he loves liis wife and daughter all the time. He would also pander to their wishes.
However, he coldly abandons them without a second thought during a crisis.
Meanwhile. Jackson got on a boat and ordered liis men to depart right away.
He stood on the deck, smiling widely as he watched the distance between him and Han grow larger.
"Han. you're far from winning!" Jackson called out aloud.
Han was still standing in the same spot. He had a dark and dangerous look in liis eyes as he fixed his
gaze on Jackson.
Jackson continued triumphantly. "It may seem like you've won. but you've lost the woman that you truly
love. Which one of us is more pathetic, huh?"
Then, he tinned around and headed into the cabin.
Han stood there for a long time as he watched the boat travel further away. His hands balled into fists.
It was lunchtime at the White's residence. While she was eating. Leah tinned on the TV and saw the
news of Jackson's downfall.
It gave Leah quite a shock as she listened to the seemingly endless list of crimes and wrongdoings
Jackson had committed.
Jackson Lamere has been secretly doing all that, and he's stolen such a large amount of hinds?! He's
been doing that for more than ten years now yet it's only been exposed on the day of the nominating
convention?
This doesn't sound like a simple coincidence.
I'm sure Jackson's gotten very good at covering up his dirty deeds after all this time. So. the person
who's uncovered this must have exceptional capabilities as well.
For some reason. Leah thought of Han at that very instant.
At the same time, a wave of relief washed over her. With Jackson on the run. he would no longer pose
a threat to Leah's safety.
"Cindy, are you done eating?" Leah could hear Serena's voice coming from the living room. "We need
to visit the gynecology today! You better hurry up! I won't go with you next time if we can't get an
appointment later!"
Leah quickly turned her focus back to her food and finished her meal as fast as she could. Then, she
placed her plates in the dishwasher and left the dining room.
It had been a little over a month since Leah had her baby. She had a tiny bump on her lower stomach.
Serena had never had any experience living with a pregnant woman before, so everything felt new and
exciting for her. She handed Leah a jacket and gently placed her palm against Leah's stomach.
"Sweetie, you must remember what I'm doing for you now and repay me when you grow up!" Serena
said with a smile.
Leah rolled her eyes. "How do you expect the baby to understand that when it's just a month old?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSerena pouted and straightened herself. "It's called prenatal education. You need to start educating
your child even when it's just a fetus!"
The two of them continued bickering as they left the house. Then. Serena drove them to the
gynecology hospital.
At the hospital. Serena found a seat for Leah, and she told her to wait there. "Stay here. I'll do the
registration for you. I can't make the mother and the baby tiled before the examination."
She was extremely attentive to Leah.
Leah flashed her a beam and said. "Go on. then."
When Serena had left. Leah chuckled softly as she recalled how Serena had insisted they start the
prenatal education from that day onward.
She caressed her bump and said in a low. gentle voice. "My child. I'm having quite a hard time with my
pregnancy, so you should be good to Mommy once you come into this world."
At that very moment, she heard a cold, deep voice of a man. "What about the father?"
The smile froze on Leah's lips.
"Han?" Leah looked up from her lap and frowned as she saw the man standing in the distance.
"Mhm. It's me." Han moved toward her.
However. Leah raised her voice the next instant. "Don't come near me!"
Her stem voice stopped Han in his tracks. He knitted liis brows. "Why?"
Leah pressed her lips together. Then, she got up to leave the place, but Han caught her by the wrist
before she could walk away.
"Let go of her!" A loud voice resounded through the hall at that moment.
Serena had come rushing to Leah's side. She slapped Han's hand away and stood in between the pair.
Then, she looked warily at the man.
