Throughout their three-year marriage, Leah had never enjoyed sex with Han. He was far from gentle with her and he had never kissed her, not even behind closed doors.

Yet there he was, making out with Molly in the public. Leah’s heart sank. She looked at the keychain she was holding and she lifted a miserable smile. I bet he won’t even notice this keychain has gone missing. He doesn’t even love me, why would he care about a gift from me?

Leah slipped the keychain into her purse, before quietly leaving the stairwell. Little did she know Han was observing her all this while. The moment Leah was out of his sight, Han pushed away Molly impatiently.

“What’s the matter, Han?” Molly asked, taken aback. They had only shared a brief kiss, leaving her yearning for more.

Han glanced at his watch. He said coldly, “Excuse me, but I have to go now.” Molly wanted to say something but he had already turned on his heel.

It had been a minute since her engagement party with Han was ruined. Despite her father urging them to get engaged, Han managed to brush the matter off with various excuses. He left her with no choice but to take things into her hands now.

Leah decided to return from the hospital once she regained consciousness. She felt fine despite the shock. When she stepped into the house, Ian and Sasha were chatting on the couch. Sasha was beaming while Ian looked distracted.

“Welcome home, Ms. White.” Noticing Leah, one of the maids quickly greeted her. Ian glanced at the entrance and he immediately walked toward Leah.

“How are you feeling now? Are you okay?” He examined her with a concerned look. Leah shook her head, “I’m fine. Don’t worry about me.”

Sasha glared at Leah before approaching her with a forced smile. “Thank god you’re back, my dearest sister! I was so worried about you. If you hadn’t pushed me away, I would have been the one being taken hostage. Oh, what should I do without you, Sarah?”

To show how much she cared about Leah, Sasha pulled Leah into an embrace; she even teared up to add to the effect. It worked; Leah felt she shouldn’t be too hard on Sasha. Perhaps she misunderstood her.

Two days later, the White sisters were working together again. Their father Gordon would be returning today after sealing a significant deal he had spent almost a year abroad negotiating.
