Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 51

The atmosphere was tense.

Han gave Shawn an inscrutable look. “The Whites and the Howards are near and dear to one another. Ms. White is a sister to me.”

Shawn smiled profoundly. “You would know best whether she’s a sister or something more. I only hope you can treat her as a sister for the rest of your life.”

He clearly lost interest after having spoken his piece and shot Leah a warning glance. “You shouldn’t forget my words to you today, Ms. White.”

With that, Shawn left.

Leah stood frozen, her expression grim.

“Didn’t I warn you to stay away from him?” Han’s expression was pinched into an angry frown.

“It’s not what you think. I’m not the slightest bit familiar with him. I have no idea why he’s pestering me,” Leah explained as she shook her head.

Han’s expression grew stern as he heard her explanation. “He enjoys toying with women. You’re no match for him.”

Leah knew that he had misunderstood the situation.

He likely assumed that Shawn was interested in her.

She could tell however that the man stared at her with not a semblance of passion in his eyes. There was only a predatory look in them.

She hung her head and sighed. “I understand.”

Han felt a burst of frustration well up inside him when he noticed how she made no move to defend herself.

Her silence makes her no different from that woman.

He couldn’t understand. Why won’t you just speak your mind? Why do you keep sulking and keeping everything to yourself?

Han’s tone grew harsh as he thought about it. “Do as you please.”

With that, he left.

Leah was unsure of what she was to do as she watched him walk away.

Ian had finally returned after half an hour. He approached Leah with a grin. “Let’s go.”
