Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 228

Leah looked at Ron. who was still in an unconscious state.

There's no telling when he'll regain consciousness...

She sighed softly and said. "Alright."

George drove Leah back to the White's residence, then he left. With Ron being admitted to the hospital for an indefinite amount of time. George could no longer stay with Leah to protect her. Instead, he sent a few more men to guard her place.

It was a dark and stormy night. For some reason. Leah woke from a deep sleep with a start.

Serena was staying in the room next to hers.

Leah blinked a few times. Sweat glistened on her forehead.

Why am I sweating so hard? I wasn't having any nightmares just now.

She tried to go back to sleep but to no avail. Then, she put on a jacket and made her way downstairs to the kitchen to warm some milk.

Wlien Leah was slowly sipping on the milk, the kitchen door swung open all of a sudden. Leah thought her heart might jump out of her chest at that moment. She quickly tinned on her phone and was about to press the speed dial.

She had tinned on the kitchen light earlier, and she could see the person clearly as they stepped into the room.

It was one of the men who were sent there by George.

The man saw Leah as well. He swallowed nervously and lowered his gaze. "Ms. White, you're up?"

"I woke up and wanted to have some milk." Leah frowned slightly when she noticed that the man was completely soaked. "What happened? Why didn't you use an umbrella to get here?"

"I was in a hurry." The man replied. "I saw a suspicious man outside the house just now. and I was worried that he might harm you. So. I rushed here in the rain to check how tilings were. I'm sorry if I've surprised you."

The man had an apologetic look on liis face, and it seemed genuine to Leah.
