Han turned on his heels. Sasha looked at him walking away, appalled. She had to make him stay, or her plans would fail and she would be killed. She was at her wit’s end.

Once again, someone spoke into her earpiece, and her eyes widened. With new-found confidence, she said to Han, “Even if you have no feelings for this woman, you don’t want her dead body to be found here, do you?”

To her relief, Han stopped. He turned to scowl at Sasha. She continued, following the voice in her earpiece, “After all, you owe it to her for mistreating her all these years. It would also be a walk in the park for you to save her. So, why not?”

After a long pause, Han spoke. “Why should I save someone I don’t care about?” He sneered, “Nonetheless, you’ve got my attention. Tell me, what do you want?”

“I want an assignment of the contract you’ve signed with Jackson Lamere in Saint Ville,” replied Sasha, repeating after the man speaking into her earpiece.

Han gaped at her in astonishment. “Shawn Ford,” he said without a shadow of a doubt.

Leah did not know what the contract was about, but it must have been a big deal for Sasha to put herself into this much trouble. She could not help him while being tied to a chair, but she did not want to owe him anything. “Go away, Han. I don’t need you to save me.”

Han stared at Leah with mixed feelings. He realized how thin she was, and for a brief moment, he felt sorry for her. He thought about what Sasha said; he could not tell if the feeling he had for Leah was love or guilt.
