Leah and Ian exchanged looks, and the two had a tacit agreement to keep it a secret. They did not want to tell Jane about the disappearance of Sasha and the relationship between Sasha and Charlie. After all, Jane had just lost Gordon. If she knew the truth about Sasha, it would be a blow to her.

In the end, Leah could only tell Jane roughly what had happened these days. Although she had tried her best to sound casual, Jane still felt sorry for what happened to her.

Tears streamed down Jane’s face. She held Leah’s hand and said, “I’m sorry that you had a hard time. I’ve already known the real murderer from the news. I shouldn’t have blamed you before. I’m sorry, Sarah…”

Jane felt sorry and held Leah’s hand tightly. Leah could not help but sigh. She did not blame Jane at all.

“It’s okay, Mom. Look, I’m back. From now on, I’ll take good care of you,” Leah said seriously.

Right then, Ian chimed in, “Yeah, Mrs. White, don’t worry. As long as I am here, I’ll try my best to help you and Sarah in the future.”

Hearing that, Jane smiled weakly and replied, “You’re such a good man.”

“Thank you so much, Ian!” Leah also felt grateful for what Ian had done for them.

“Not at all. Mr. White was not around, and no one lead the company. I can’t let Sarah handle such a big company alone. Mrs. White, Sarah, what are your plans for the future?” Ian asked.

Hearing that, Jane could not help but shake her head. “I don’t know. The shareholders are running the company now. But I’m afraid they are going to revolt after Gordon left. I believe they will take advantage and probably carve up the whole company if no one takes charge.”

Ian nodded after hearing that. In fact, that was exactly what he was worried about.
