Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 410

Chapter 410 A Plan to Destroy the City

The night was dark as ink. The chilly autumn wind carried a drizzle with it as it relentlessly pounded the windows. The dreamy glow from the city's neon lights was reflected by the crystal-clear raindrops as they moved through the air.

Leah silently gazed at the night view outside the window. Her phone had shut down because the battery had run out. She was avoiding Han. She needed some privacy to process her bad mood in the office.

"Sarah," Shawn's voice suddenly sounded from behind her.

Leah was startled. She quickly turned around. There was a sadness that lingered in her eyes. She wondered, "Why are you here?"

She was present in her office in the White Group. The security guards should have stopped him from entering the building.

Shawn was satisfied with the surprise in her eyes. He smiled gently at her and said, "Sarah, there’s no need to be surprised. I'm here to take you home."

On that rainy night, his smile seemed particularly horrifying. It caused Leah to feel a tightening in her chest and unconsciously distance herself from him.

"I can go home by myself. You should leave," she said with a trembling voice and a pallid complexion.

Recently, Shawn had been acting strangely. Leah was unable to help but imagine the worst.

Her fear made Shawn all the more delighted. He strode forward, embracing her in his arms. Leah's chin was held in Shawn's hand as he wrapped one arm around her waist. He forced Leah to look up at him.

Leah exclaimed, "Let go of me!"

Leah was alarmed by the horrifying lust in Shawn's eyes. She made a valiant effort to free herself.

Despite Leah's attempt to break free, Shawn was able to stop her with ease. He lifted her chin and pressed his lips against hers.

Leah was terribly sick from the smell of that strange male. Her eyes had begun to well up with tears, and her vision was blurry. She said, "Let..."

This time, she could not finish her sentence and fainted out of the blue.


Shawn gazed intently at her pale face. He frowned slightly and murmured, "Sarah, are you resisting

me to this extent?"

Shawn thought she had fainted due to her rage. Leah was brought back to his villa after leaving White Group.

Han arrived a step too late. His eyes darkened as he noticed the empty office. He coldly glanced at the bodyguard leader, who was in charge of protecting Leah in secret. He commanded, "Get lost and accept your punishment."

The bodyguard leader dared not say another word. He quickly nodded and said, "Yes, Boss!"

Ben pulled up the surveillance footage and said, "Boss, it was Shawn who took Ms. White away. He was able to hold back our brothers who were covertly guarding Ms. White with a sizable number of bodyguards."

Han's eyes turned icy and he said, "Bring her back."

Ben was in a difficult position, he said, "You just recently pretended to make up with Ms. Lancaster. Our plan might not succeed if you meddle too much in Ms. White's affairs, right?"

The temperature in the office dropped to the freezing point as soon as these words were said. Han said nothing but stared down coldly at Ben from above.

Ben felt like he was being targeted by a ferocious beast. The terrifying murderous intent made every hair on his body stand on end. He finally gave in and said, "Alright, boss! I'll arrange for Ross to pose as Mr. Hendrik and bring Ms. White home covertly so that Anna won't find out!"

The next morning, the sky was filled with drizzle. The cold raindrops fell from the eaves and leaves. Leah was awakened by the dripping sound.

She breathed in the room's chilly air and started coughing hysterically.

Leah was familiar with this room. For two years, she had resided in the same room in the Ford family villa. She covered her mouth uncomfortably and routinely used a tissue to wipe the blood away.

"Huff!" She leaned against the bed uncomfortably to catch her breath. She had to compromise with the fact that Shawn had taken her back to this villa.

She rose silently from her bed, put on a jacket, and left the room. She made an effort to slow down as she made her way to the staircase, where she overheard Shawn speaking to Jackson.

"I've assembled a research team. How are things going with your preparations?"

Jackson sneered, "I've been prepared for a while. The company has already been registered. If the experiment is successful, we’ll make a fortune in less than six months. By then, the Ford Group will trample Han underfoot while my family will reclaim our former glory!"

Shawn's evil smile grew uglier. He praised, "Excellent! The more gruesome the initial performance the better. More fatalities would be ideal…"

Even though Leah had trouble following their conversation, the final sentence made her chest tighten.

A research that would result in mass murder?

She hastily returned to her room as soon as she saw that Shawn and Jackson had finished talking. She unbuttoned her coat and pretended to sleep on the bed. However, her heart raced with anxiety.

What kind of scheme is Shawn hatching?

Leah could roughly estimate the severity of the situation based on the fact that many people would die.

"Rest well, Sarah. Stay with me through this. My accomplishment will undoubtedly surpass Hendrik's once my plan is successful."

Leah's lips were being softly stroked by Shawn as he said to her. In the end, he leaves a light kiss on Leah’s lips.
