“Hmm.” Han nodded. As Leah was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly pulled her into his embrace.

Leah, who was caught off guard, stumbled into his embrace.

She quickly came about her senses and tried to push Han away, “What are you doing?” She frowned and asked.

Han hugged her tightly, his eyes showing a hint of longing.

But after a few seconds, he let go of her and answered, “Nothing. You may go now.”

Han reached out his hand and patted her on the shoulders, “Remember to get ready for tomorrow. Don’t disappoint me,” he reminded her.

Leah looked at him confusingly before mumbling out, “Stupid.” She then returned to her room.

The next day, Leah was on standby before Han’s room at seven in the morning.

She looked completely different today when compared to yesterday’s outfit.

She wore a brown knee-length dress, which showcased her pale and slender legs. Her slender long neck and collarbones were also on display as she was wearing a pinafore dress.

She also wore some light and elegant makeup.

When Han walked out, his gaze darkened as he saw Leah’s appearance.

“Mr Howard, is my outfit alright for the occasion?” Leah cheekily asked and blinked at him.

Leah was not as afraid of Han as she was before, since his attitude had substantially improved, even though there were still times where he’d still be cold towards her.

Han’s eyes raked over her body for a while and surprisingly looked away in disgust, “No, it’s too revealing,” he commented.

Leah was speechless and bit her lips as she looked down onto her dress.

“I think it’s alright,” she muttered.

Han stretched out his arm and pulled her to his side, “Then stay by my side throughout,” He told her.
