Chapter 233
Molly pressed the button beside the elevator, and by the time she finally reached the underground garage. Han’s car had already been long gone.
She rushed into her car hastily and followed him.
She only stopped when the luxurious black car was driven all the way to a villa in the suburbs.
She could not tail him anymore further than this. Otherwise, she would be caught.
Her heart sank when she watched the black car disappear from her sight.
She quickly scrolled through her contacts and pressed her phone to call someone.
“Go find out which villa Han has bought Rose Bay.”
“I will get on to it now.”
After hanging up, Molly did not return home just yet.
When Leah who was in the villa heard the sound of a car engine throttling to a stop, she could not help but feel that her mood was worsening. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
The moment Han stepped through the door, she immediately confronted him.
“I have more than enough rest. Can I go now?”
His face darkened, “Not at this moment.”
When he saw Leah getting up from the sofa a moment ago. he thought that time had turned back to when they were still newlyweds.
Back then, no matter the time, Leah would wait for him. He would even not send a message to inform her when he did not intend to come back home sometimes. She would continue to wait for him on the sofa until daybreak.
Leah crumbled her hand into a fist and launched a punch at him.
“Han, you are going too far!”
Han did not dodge her attack as he could easily grab her fists. He felt the coldness that emanated from her skin, which made him frown. He removed his jacket and covered her shoulders with it.
He reminded her. “A pregnant woman should not get angry so often.”
Leah took in a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves. It seemed that Han would not rescind his stance no matter how hard she tried.
“Go upstairs and wait for me. I will call you when dinner’s ready.”
At dinner, he prepared dishes that were Leah’s favorite. Han heard the sound of footsteps, so he removed his apron and pulled a chair for Leah.
“When can I leave this place?” Leah did not sit down. She was staring at Han questioningly.
Han ignored her question, “Let's have dinner first.”
If one were to ignore L eah's unwillingness to sit around this dining table, the two of them could be considered to be a happy couple enjoying their dinner.
After dinner, Han suggested having a walk out there.
He wanted to enjoy a peaceful married life. He did not want them to just lock horns every day.
Leah froze on the spot. Nothing could hide how' shocked she was when she heard that proposition.
She came back to her senses and shook her head, "I am not going."
Han did not appear to get angry as he came close to her and whispered in her ears. "If you are unwilling to go voluntarily, I will cany you in my aims.”
His breath sprayed on her ears, which made her duck back in embarrassment. Her face was turning red now.
He w'as really a jerk!
Leah stomped toward the courtyard, and Han produced a smug look on his face. He felt elated that his little trick had worked, and he immediately followed in her steps.
The next day, Han only left the villa after preparing breakfast.
By the time Leah woke up, there was no one else in the villa.
However, she still saw the same memo that read. “Remember to eat your breakfast. I will come to check whether you have eaten it at noon.”
Leah tore the memo into pieces and threw' them into the dustbin. She cursed, “What a childish guy.”
At that moment, someone w'as pressing the doorbell repeatedly. It had an urgent ring to it.
Leah peeked through the peephole and saw that it was Molly, whose face was distorted because of intense rage.
Leah opened the door after some deliberation.
“I am right all along, you are really here!"
When Molly saw Leah's familiar face, her face darkened.
She had some conjectures yesterday, and she had repeatedly convinced herself that Han w'ould never do something like this to her.
Despite that, the truth w'as revealed right in front of her eyes at this moment.
Leah w'as staring at Molly as if she was looking at an idiot, “So what about it?”
‘‘You b*tch, how dare you seduce Han?”
Molly raised her hand and w'as about to slap Leah.
Leah straightened herself and a cautious look appeared on her face. “You better think twice before hitting anyone. There is no one in the Lamere family who can back you up now'.”
Molly w'as no longer her old self who held a lot of power.
“So w'hat if I hit you?”
Molly did not heed Leah's warning since she could not just change her arrogant attitude in just one night. Her palm was directed toward Leah as she brought it down.
Leah's face hardened as she grabbed Molly’s wrist.
“Let go of me!” Molly could only break her hand free after much flailing around.
Leah took a few' steps back too to put some distance between them. She could not grapple with some maniac since she was pregnant at the moment.
She took out her phone and called Han.
“Come here. You need to bring your girl back.”
Han's face slowly darkened. He knew that Leah was referring to Molly.
"Do you really think that Han wants that baby in your belly? He just wants to save Carlotta. Leah. I really feel for you. I can't believe that you're enduring pregnancy for so long just to be of any use to a man who was going to many another woman.”
Molly w'as glaring at Leah's belly with a venomous gaze.
She w'anted to cause Leah to miscarry, but if she lost this child, that would spell the end for Carlotta too.
Leah paid close attention to their distance, and she was gazing at Molly sarcastically, “Thank you for the reminder.”
She could not help but feel pity for Molly w'ho was still trying to hold her ground despite being at a huge disadvantage. A look of sympathy flashed across her face.
Indeed, she was starting to feel sorry for a despicable person like her.
Leah said cunningly, “In fact. I don't want to be here at all. What about helping me on this/”
With Molly’s help, she would be able to leave this prison-like place that Han had forced her in.
Molly did not believe her at first, so Leah continued to press on.
“I really want to leave.”
Leah was really determined.
Molly’s face was disdainful, “Why should I help you in the first place?”
Leah replied, “Just because you care about Han."
Molly w'as exactly who Leah was a long time ago.
Molly soon agreed to her proposition. She handed her car to Leah.
Fearing that Molly w'ould eat her words, Leah sped out of the suburbs and came back to the hospital.
By the time Han arrived at the villa. Leah was no longer there.
When he saw that Molly had taken Leah's place on the stairs, he could not suppress his anger.
“Where is she?”
“She's gone.” Molly did not dare to meet Han’s eyes. She did not want to understand Han's true emotions right now.
All she could do now was to lie to herself that he must be doing all this for Carlotta’s sake.
“Who ask you to let her go!” Han strangled Molly and pulled her from the ground.
“She... w'anted to go... I couldn't stop her...”
Molly who was suddenly suffocated could not stop coughing as she was fighting for her breath while explaining herself at the same time.
Just as she felt that she was going to die. Han let her go.
Molly plopped to the ground, and her tears could not stop falling. She sobbed, "Han. she really went off on her own volition.”
Only then she realized that she had fallen into Leah’s trap.
