Begging For A Reconciliation

me if you want a building. I have one that I can give you."

Immediately after, Han’s lips were pressed against Leah's delicate neck. His voice became low and

hoarse, "Of course, you have to please me first."

The bedroom door burst open before he could finish. Ben, Mrs. Fisher, the butler, and Carlotta all lost

their balance and fell into the room.

Leah was at a loss for words.

Are they peeping on us?

She thought she was about to pass out from shame. She quickly covered herself with the quilt. Her

ears were now red, and she was hiding her face with her hands.

Han's expression darkened as he reprimanded, "Get out."

Mrs. Fisher swiftly took Carlotta and fled after realizing that he had become enraged. She said,

"Carlotta, let's go!"

Carlotta sighed regretfully, "I haven't seen the climax yet. I don't know if my parents have made up. It's

all Ben's fault for coming over here. If he hadn’t, none of that would've happened!"

When Mrs. Fisher thought of the erotic scene just now, she could not help but break out in a cold

sweat. She urged, "Carlotta, the two of them must have made up!"

Mrs. Fisher thought, how could the two still fight after Mrs. Howard sat on Mr. Howard? Speaking of

which, it was the first time I discovered Mr. Howard's preferences.

The butler got up quickly and pretended to calmly straighten his suit after Mrs. Fisher and Carlotta left.

He said, "Mr. and Mrs. Howard, breakfast is ready. Please come downstairs and enjoy your breakfast."

Ben wanted to leave after everyone else did. He was unable to do that, though, as he had something

crucial to report. He had to bite the bullet and take a step forward.

"Boss, it has been confirmed that Mr. Baldwin is illegally raising funds and preparing to flee the country.

Additionally, he took our 5 million dollar joint fund. Shall we send our own men to track him down or

hand him over to the police?"

Han cast a downward glance at the woman hiding beneath the quilt. He answered calmly, "Let the

police handle it."

Before Ben left, he asked him coldly, "What about that guy?"

Ben understood right away that Han was referred to as Donald. He said, "Boss, after our men warned

him, he had restrained himself and found several scapegoats to clear his suspicions. He won't have

any issues as long as we don't reveal him."

After that, the door was closed and the room quieted down.

Leah emerged from the quilt with a bewildered look. She asked, "Mr. Baldwin broke the law?"

Han sneered and mocked, "That's why I’m saying that you're stupid. Didn't you look into his

background before cooperating with them? Many serious crimes had taken place in that building. He

was desperate to get rid of it before his wrongdoings were exposed. If you bought it, you would have to

bear all the responsibility."

This time, Leah did not get angry in the face of his ridicule. She was grateful and felt a pang of fear.

"Thank you."

Although she felt awkward, she still swallowed her pride and thanked him.

Her bright eyes had a dim glow to them. She was disappointed with herself. Everything she attempted

to do failed and she nearly got herself into trouble when she tried to purchase a building to expand

Dream Designs.

In the end, Leah was forced to abandon her plan to purchase the property and refocus on finishing the

advertising copy for HJ Corporation's new product.

Two days later, she sent the final colored draft of the design and the advertising copy to Susan.

That afternoon, she met with a client before going back to her office.

Ross handed her a list and reported, "Ms. White, these are some people who are interested in buying

our company shares. Do any of them appeal to you? Our company needs several high-level

shareholders."

More than a dozen top executives were detained a few days ago because they may have been

involved in criminal activity. Leah was the only person left to manage the business at this point. She

could not, of course, manage everything on her own for very long.

Leah meticulously reviewed the list and inquired, "Have you looked into their backgrounds? They must

not be associated with Jackson or any other forces in any way."

Ross shook her head, "I have looked into them, and they seem fine, but I cannot guarantee that they

will be loyal to the company. Don't worry, Ms. White. Mr. Hendrik will manipulate everything in secret.

You don't have to worry about anyone infiltrating the company."

Leah breathed a sigh of relief and put down the list. She said, "Good. Set up a meeting so I can speak

with them. Furthermore, has the West Street project begun yet?"

She inquired about the land that she had acquired from Mr. Thompson. Leah only had two years to

fulfill the gambling. She had to speed up.

"The construction has begun."

…

Anna also discovered that Leah had purchased the West Street property.

She lost her poise and frantically smashed the glass in her hand. Then she chastised, "How can this

b*tch have such great abilities? Why is she so hard to get rid of? No matter how many people I send to

kill her, there are no results. She even avoided Mr. Baldwin, whom I had set up to drag her down!"

Anna's anger drove her crazy.

How did this rural beggar have such incredible luck? If this went on, wouldn't she draw more of Ethan's

attention as she got stronger?

Owen heard the commotion and walked over. He had a sinister smile on his face and soothed, "No

need to worry, Nana. She won't live for very long. She didn't just take a simple sleeping pill when she

drank the red wine at the auction; it also contained a deadly poison. Given the timing, the effects of the

poison will start to manifest in two days."
