Leah followed the prison officer to the visiting room. In the room, Han was standing at the door with his back facing them. His well-built back was a very familiar sight to her.

Suddenly, Leah found herself wanting to cry for no discernible reason. Perhaps the sight of a familiar face caused her emotions to well up after the inhumane mistreatment she went through in the past few days.

The prison officer entered the room and announced, “Ms. White is here, Mr. Howard.”

“Mmm…” grunted Han half-heartedly in response. He turned around and looked at Leah, his eyes twitched the moment he saw her.

Standing in front of him was a haggard lady. In just two or three days, Leah had turned into mere skins and bones. Her eyes were sunken and there were dark circles under her eyes.

Her clothes were a mess, while both her face and hands were covered in blood. He could not tell if the blood belonged to her.

Han’s eyes narrowed a little.

He then said to the prison officer, “Leave us for now.”

The prison officer knew that he was dealing with a powerful man, so he dared not protest. He quietly turned around and excused himself.

As the door snapped shut, Han and Leah found themselves together alone in the huge room.

Han stared at her intently before curling his lips and remarked sarcastically, “It seems like you’ve gone through a lot.” So much so that she would crawl back to him for help.

Leah looked at him and took a deep breath before saying, “I will agree to the terms you mentioned last time, Han.”

“Oh, are you talking terms with me?” replied Han with a sneer.

Leah nodded her head, her eyes grew misty. She replied, “I only care about two things, clearing my name and making Charlie pay for what he did to my father.”

She gritted her teeth as her eyes were filled with hatred.

There were no longer signs of gentleness and meekness in her eyes.It was as if those few days of prison life had turned Leah into a totally different person.

Even Han was surprised at the change in her character.
