Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 226

Strangely. Molly felt a sense of relief when she heard that Han did not recover his memories.

I should be feeling sad about this. However. I think I've changed my mind now that Leah is around.

If Han never regains his memories and forgets about Sarah White permanently, would I get to keep him by my side for the rest of our lives?

After speaking to the doctor. Molly and Jackson went to the ward where Han had been transferred. They entered the room to find Han sitting up in the bed and staring silently out the window.

"Han. do you still feel sick?" Molly asked while walking toward him.

Han shook his head. He looked past Molly and fixed liis gaze on Jackson.

Molly did not seem to notice that. Whilst looking at Han's pale face, she ranted. "It's all Sarah's fault! I don't even know how she managed to sneak into the hall back then. She ruined Daddy's party and caused you to collapse that day! Han. you should stay away from that woman from now on!"

Han remained silent the entire time she was talking. His expression showed nothing of his thoughts, but liis eyes told of a different story.

Suddenly. Jackson interrupted her. "Molly, could you wait outside for a while? I need to speak with Han alone."

Molly cast a curious glance at her father and muttered under her breath. "Is it something that you must keep from me?"

Then, she walked out of the room, albeit unwillingly.

Once there were only the two of them left. Jackson sat in a chair next to Han's bed and said. " What do you think of our chances?"

Han met his eyes and responded calmly, "I'm ninety percent confident."

Jackson knew that Han had hardly failed in anything that he did. Upon hearing his reply. Jackson's face broke into a warm smile.

"Once I've won the position, the Howard family and the Lamere family will have all of Asteria in the palm of our hand." Jackson said smilingly.

Han replied. "Mhm. The Howard family will show our support once the election kicks off. I'll also offer my help as best as I can."

Jackson's smile deepened. "I'm glad you've come to the right decision. A man should prioritize their career more than anything else. What's happened in the past no longer matters now. I've given you so much support in the hope to achieve this goal someday. Once I'm in power, the Howard family's name will be known to all as well."

Jackson spoke with conviction. However, he was also sending Han a subtle warning through those words.

Han dropped his gaze, concealing the flash of hostility in liis eyes.

Then, he slowly nodded. "Mhm."

"Cindy, the weather is good today. Shall we go out for a walk?" Serena opened the window and suggested cheerfully as she looked at the clear, blue sky.

Behind her. Leah was seated on a sofa, sipping her tea.

She took a glance out of the window and thought to herself. The weather is lovely today. We haven't had such a sunny day since winter began.

Leah and Serena had not stepped out of the house for many days, and they were honestly at their limits.

After a moment's thought. Leah picked up her bag and said. "Let's go."

Serena hurried over to her side excitedly, and both of them headed out of the house with their arms linked.

Just then. Leah spotted the group of thug-like men standing outside the front door. They were there on Ron's orders to protect her.

That reminds me. Ron is having liis racing match today. I wonder how he'll do.

"Ms. White, are you ladies planning on going out?" One of the men came up to them and asked politely with a smile on his face.

Leah looked at him. I remember him. He was with Ron when Ron showed up at the abandoned chop shop that time.

"We're just heading out for a walk." Leah replied calmly. Then, she asked. "What's your name?"

Leah held no prejudice against these men. Most of them have had a tough life gi owing up. In a way. I'm respectful of how they've managed to pull through and survive in life.

The man was briefly stunned. Then, liis smile widened. "I'm George Vanica. I've been working with Ron for thirteen years now."

Thirteen years...

Ron was only ten thirteen years ago. I don't know what happened during his younger years. However. George must be very special to Ron since they've been together for such a long time.

Seriously though! Why would he send someone so important here to protect me?

The lot of them took a stroll down the road outside the mansion.

After hearing George's words. Serena asked curiously. "You've known him for that long? Then, you must have met him when you were still a teen?"

George smiled shyly. He had never imagined that he could have a conversation with such attractive ladies someday.

He replied. "That's right. I met Ron back when we were staying at the orphanage. At the time. I was the leader of the kids living there. I'm older than him by three years. When he was brought to the orphanage, Ron was as skinny as a twig! However, he had a fierce and defiant look in liis eyes. Back then. I would always gang up with several boys and tiy to pick a fight with him."

George had a serene look in liis eyes as he reminisced about liis past. "One day. I tried to beat him up again with the other boys. To our surprise, Ron fought back fiercely like a wild little cub. I and the boys were shocked that day."

He beamed widely at the thought of that memory.

Serena let out a chuckle as she found that story amusing. "I did not expect to hear about such an aggressive side of him. He just seemed like a kind gentleman."

"That's why you should never judge a book by its cover. Though Ron may seem like a playboy who's very popular with the ladies, he's actually a very loyal man. He'll remain faithful to his partner if that person holds his heart." George cast Leah a knowing look while saying that.

Leah quickly changed the topic. "Isn't Ron joining a racing match today? Shouldn't you be at the site to support him?"

George shook his head. "My job is to ensure your safety. Ms. White. Besides, even if I can't be there. I know for sure that Ron will win the race. Our boss is the best!"

George's eyes were burning with pure admiration for Ron. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Leah and Serena chuckled softly. "We're looking forward to hearing the good news."

George puffed up his chest with pride.

At that very moment, liis phone rang. George glanced at the screen and said. "Ms. White, please excuse me while I take this call."

"Mhm. Go ahead." Leah waved her hand lightly.

George walked a little further away from them and answered the phone. He kept his gaze on Leah the entire time.

However, his eyes dilated in honor the next instant. "What did you say?!"
