Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 170

Leah hurriedly swallowed her breakfast and made her way to the CEO’s office with a heavy heart. She was prepared to be reprimanded if she was responsible for the fight between Molly and Han.

Knock knock! Leah tapped on the door gently and waited anxiously for a response.

After a brief moment, Han’s deep cold voice sounded, “Come in.”

When Leah entered the room, she found Han seated at his desk. He fastened his stare at her with a frigid expression. Her heart skipped a beat as she recalled the episode at the hospital. She thought to herself, it was too dreamlike. Han would probably wish to forget about it for the rest of his life. He has returned to the aloof and arrogant man he has always been. It was as though our time in the hospital has never happened before.

Leah lowered her head slightly and asked timidly, “Are you looking for me, Mr. Howard?”

The man replied curtly, “Yeah.” He frowned before continuing, “What’s that smell?”

Leah froze and asked puzzledly, “What?”

Han explained with a blank expression. “What did you eat for breakfast?”

Leah scoffed inwardly at his need for control. She answered truthfully, “Tuna sandwich.”

Han thought to himself, no wonder that pungent smell. I can never understand why women like to eat food with such strong flavors.
