Maybe there was some sort of indescribable connection between them; Carlotta stopped crying when she was held by Han. She looked at him curiously, and she was blinking her eyes.
Leah came back to her senses, and she felt sorry for hurting Carlotta. She checked on her arms to make sure Carlotta was really fine. She was relieved there was no wound.
She had been overly sensitive recently. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
She asked unhappily, "Why are you here?"
Alfred told me that Anna is awake; shouldn't he accompany her now?
"Anna is awake."
She was not surprised. "I know."
She was happy that Anna was awake.
Han said coldly, "You have to leave with me now."
Owen's arrival and Anna's waking up would surely turn Leah's life upside down.
Leah looked at him speechlessly and questioned, "What does this have to do with me?"
She seemed to have thought of something, and her face darkened. "Do you think I will hurt her again?"
Han raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you think this is the case?"
She tried to reassure him by saying, "I'm not going to hurt her, and I won't be leaving with you."
After saying that, she did not wait for his reply and carried Carlotta back to her condominium.
Han quickly caught up to her and gave her a glum expression.
She doesn't even understand the severity of the matter at all.
As a father, Owen will do everything to exact revenge on her daughter. I would do the same for my daughter too.
Leah's face crumpled, and she glared at him. She snorted, "Stop following me around."
She was already trying her best to restrain her emotions; she did not want to lose her temper in front of Carlotta, and she did not want to frighten her.
Leah pushed the door open, and she let Lucy take Carlotta from her arms. She then closed the door behind her and stared at Han, who had followed her all the way home.
She said sternly, "This is my house; I won't move out, and I will never leave with you."
He stared at her coldly, and he did not leave her with a choice. "You must go with me."
She glowered, and she said, "I will find a way to pay you back the money. The house is a mess, so I won't invite you in."
Before he could react, she rushed into her house and locked the door.
Han stared at the locked door for a while, and then he chuckled. Leah, I'm not going to let you do things your way soon.
In order to be able to pay off her debts as soon as possible, Lean would establish her studio as quickly as possible.
At the café reception, Leah ordered a cup of Caffè Americano for Serena, and she ordered a glass of wine for herself. She then found a place to sit.
Serena arrived soon after her, and she asked in disappointment, "Why didn't you bring Carlotta out?"
Sigh, I thought I could play with Carlotta today! I'm so sad.
Serena did not like children. On the contrary, she thought that children were a burden. But whenever she was bored, she would like to play with Carlotta.
Leah pushed the cup of coffee to her, and she said, "It's inconvenient to talk about business with a child."
Serena got serious when she saw that Leah was being professional at the moment.
"I've seen your plan, and it's feasible."
She looked at Serena in surprise, and she exclaimed, "Really?"
Serena nodded as Leah was staring at her; Leah threw herself into her arms and gave her a hug.
As she stepped into the designer field until now, she had always wanted to form her own studio. But she was always occupied with other things. And Serena had not come back to her after receiving her plan for quite some time.
She thought that she could not make her dream come true again; she did not expect that Serena would agree with her.
She looked at Serena with tears in her eyes, and she said sincerely, "Thank you, Serena."
"Hey, is it necessary to be so excited about a little thing?" She jokingly pushed Leah away.
Some of the cafe customers were casting her some weird looks, so she cast them an apologetic look and sat back down in her seat.
Serena took another sip of coffee and continued to say, "I dislike complicated things, but I can make an exception for you. I'm Carlotta's godmother after all."
Leah could not hold back her excitement; she asked cheerfully, "Serena, you are so kind; how can I possibly thank you enough?"
If she's a man, I'll totally marry her to show my appreciation.
In the past two years, Serena has taken a lot of care of her.
Serena smirked and said, "Let me be with Carlotta for two days in return."
Leah rejected without hesitation, "No way."
Serena replied, "You're so stingy!"
They discussed some details of the studio, and they parted ways in the evening.
Serena parked the car at the entrance of the café; she rolled down the window and said, "Get in the car; I'll send you back."
Leah shook her head to refuse her help; she wanted to walk back alone and enjoy the sunset on the roadside.
"Then I'll go back by myself. Be careful on your way home; send me a text when you've arrived."
Serena rolled up the car window, and she stepped on the gas pedal and drove off.
Leah was walking slowly on the street; looking at the lively crowd, she smiled from the bottom of her heart. She had not relaxed after Anna's car accident.
Suddenly, there was a screeching sound of brakes behind her.
She did not have the time to turn around, and she was being pushed to the side. The pain in her arm made her come back to her senses. When she looked up, the car was long gone.
Alfred looked at her with concern, and he asked, "Ms. White, are you alright?"
Alfred was assigned by Han to secretly follow and protect Leah everywhere she went.
He was always careful to hide himself, and he had never revealed his whereabouts. Leah was not aware of him at all.
Alfred realized that someone was stalking her after she came out of the café. He wanted to report to Han, but then he saw a car without a license plate and drove straight to her. He did not have much time to think, so he saved her in the stupidest way possible.
Leah got up from the ground, and she glanced at her bruised arm. She forced herself to calm down, and she answered, "I'm fine."
She then glanced at Alfred opposite her; his shirt was soaked with blood. Leah hurriedly took out her phone and called the emergency number.
He should never expose himself to Leah, so he wanted to escape from her despite the fact that he was injured. As long as Leah is fine, he should leave.
Leah strode forward and blocked his way; she asked, "Where are you going?"
He was hesitating to speak. "I-I…"
Leah grabbed his arm to prevent him from running again and said, "I don't care what the matter with you is; you have to follow me to the hospital."
