Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 333 Congratulations

A soothing aroma permeated the room, which was decorated with warm lighting.

Leah gradually calmed down.

Leah sat on the sofa with Shawn. She apologized sadly, "I am sorry. I did not want to trouble you since we agreed to stay as friends."

Leah genuinely found her action to be selfish.

However, Leah was more afraid of something terrible happening to Carlotta compared to being selfish.

Carlotta was as important as Leah's own life.

Shawn smiled warmly. He embraced Leah softly, "Please don't say that. I always treat Carlotta as my daughter. I will still protect Carlotta even without your request."

Shawn was content deep down in his heart, embracing the pretty Leah in his arms.

Shawn even wanted to thank Anna, putting Sarah in a sad and helpless spot. Sarah was no longer aversive toward his kind gesture.

Leah was so exhausted to even think about if Shawn was genuine.

However, Leah calmed down from her flustered state after hearing Shawn promising to protect Carlotta.

"Thanks…" Leah's pain from breaking down had just eased, and she felt sleepy immediately.

Leah had forgotten that she was still in Shawn's arms, and she fell asleep.

Shawn lowered his eyes in surprise after feeling the weight in his arms. Shawn looked at the sleeping Leah, and his pupils shrunk suddenly.

"Sarah…" Shawn gazed at Leah's pale face in infatuation and embraced her deeply.

Then, Shawn laid Leah on the bed in Serena's guest room. Shawn lightly kissed Leah on the lips, and his eyes gleamed with determination to conquer Leah.

This major event brings about serious trauma to Sarah. Since Sarah will receive my kind gesture, I should spare Serena first.

If something happens to Sarah again, she may not be able to take it.

Leah woke up early on the next day. As the dawn approached, she hugged her knees, while she watched the morning light.

Shawn came over yesterday. It seems I have asked for his help to protect Carlotta and fell asleep unknowingly.

Later that night, Leah woke up from a nightmare, and she could not return to sleep.

Leah dreamt about Alfred saving her and Alfred groaning in pain while soaked in blood.

As Leah recalled her dream, her eyes welled up in tears. She felt a sharp pain before her tears fell to the ground.

Leah must have cried too much yesterday. Tears irritated her eyeballs.

"Sarah, you're awake. I have prepared porridge. Come over." Suddenly, a knocking sound and Shawn's concerned voice came from the door.

Leah's eyes dimmed for a moment, and she got down from bed.

Just as Leah's feet landed on the floor, she felt dizzy and collapsed because of the sudden movement.

Shawn, who was outside the room, heard Leah's fall and immediately rushed in. Seeing Leah collapsed on the floor, Shawn shouted in heartache, "Sarah."

Shawn immediately helped Leah off the floor, putting Leah in his arms, "Are you feeling sick? Do I need to send you to the hospital?"

Serena heard the commotion and rushed over, "Sarah, what happened?"

As soon as Serena arrived at the door, Serene saw Shawn and Sarah acting intimately. Serene frowned a little before she smiled in relief, "If everything is okay, let's go for breakfast."

Shawn is a good choice if Sarah wants to pick a life partner.

Now that the Ford family is influential and wealthy, that will provide the best protection for Sarah.

Even though Sarah has not told me about the reason she distances herself from Shawn, it's still great to have someone with high status and power like Shawn to love and care for her.

At the dining table, Leah had no appetite, and her head was still dizzy.

Shawn frowned and said, "You should eat something for the sake of Carlotta. If you collapse, Carlotta will be sad."

Even though Shawn wanted to conquer Leah with this opportunity, Shawn was still worried that Leah's body could not take it.

Sarah would collapse sooner or later, given her long-term depression and poor appetite.

"Got it. Thank you…" Shawn's words convinced Leah to pick up her bowl and stuff food into her mouth, albeit robotically.

Shawn is right. I still have Carlotta. This cannot go on forever.

Leah still had many things to do…

However, what happened to Alfred made Leah sad. Leah felt guilty every time she recalled it.

It was even possible that Leah could not recover from it for the rest of her life.

Leah could no longer live in peace after carrying the burden of a person's life.

"Let me take you and Carlotta out to play and relax after breakfast." Shawn noticed Leah was still down, and he gave a suggestion.

This time, Serena jumped in before Leah could respond, "Ya, you should relax a little. I will deal with the client's project. After all, I completed a draft yesterday."

Leah's cold heart melted after seeing Shawn's and Serena's concern toward her. Leah was moved, and she agreed to their proposal.

"Thank you."

Shawn and Serena stayed with Leah when she needed the most care.

Later, Serena applied simple makeup for Leah, making Leah look healthy.

"Alright, have fun. After this, let me play with Carlotta a little!" Serena waved goodbye to Shawn and Leah smilingly.

Until Shawn and Leah's figure disappeared, Serena's face immediately turned gloomy, and she called Han.

After ringing for a long time, the phone was answered. A man's cold voice came through. "What's the matter?"

Hearing this indifferent tone, Serena was annoyed, "This is your idea! Without your direct order, Anna would not have revealed this matter!"

The sudden barrage of questions made Han's eyes gloomy, "Don't go crazy on me. There's a limit to my patience."

Immediately after, Serena was infuriated. She spoke in a tone that showed she was determined to stand up for her friend, "Am I going crazy? Sure enough, you stopped me from telling Sarah about Alfred's death to get what you wanted today!"

"Why did you want to torment Sarah!"

Serena shouted hoarsely, and her face turned red because of anger.

Han picked out critical information from Serena's words, "So, did you tell Sarah?"

Hearing Han's tone in faking innocence, Serena mocked in anger, "Didn't you ask Anna to tell Sarah about Alfred's death? Congratulations. If your goal is to torment her, you have succeeded."

"I hope you distance yourself from Anna!"

Serena hung up the phone after saying that coldly.

Despite lashing her anger out on Han, Selena was aware that the damage had already been done to Sarah. Things would not get better just because of her scolding.

On the other side, Han watched the phone hang up, and his pitch-black eyes suddenly narrowed.

"She found out about it…" Han grasped the phone tightly with a cold face, and he exuded a strong killing intent.
