Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 428

Chapter 428 In Less Than a Month

It was so quiet in the car that Leah could only hear the sound of her heartbeat and the sound of cars honking in the distance.

She could feel her heart beat faster and louder upon hearing that question from Shawn. She even thought that her heart might leap out of her chest the next instant.

It's the moment that I've been waiting for all this time.

I finally see a sliver of hope after so many days of hard work and effort.

Leah managed to keep her emotions and expression under control even though she was caught slightly off-guard. She did not want to alarm Shawn in any way.

She appeared a little puzzled as she asked, "Didn't you say that there was some sort of virus at the laboratory? You wouldn't bring me there before this. Have they gotten rid of all the virus already?"

Shawn reached out and caressed Leah's cheek. "Of course. The viruses are all packed and sealed securely. There won't be any sudden leakage this time."

I must make sure that the virus at the laboratory has been properly taken care of if I'm bringing Leah to the place.

Leah felt a little uneasy as she noted some crucial hints in his words. Still, she asked in a confused voice, "What do you mean the viruses are all packed? How do you pack viruses?"

Shawn merely thought that she was asking a cute, funny question as he looked at her bright eyes. He gave her a peck on the cheek. "It's a bit hard to explain everything to you right now. I'll tell you all about it once we're done with the wedding."

Goosebumps rose all over Leah's body as she felt Shawn's lips on her skin. She fought back the urge to shrink away.

Then, she smiled slightly and changed the topic. "What about the plan to bring down Han that you've told me about? Are you going to do it soon?"

"What if Han makes a move before you do? The Ford Group is also facing some problems with The Kendrick Group owned by Mr. Hendrik."

Shawn thought that Leah was expressing genuine concern for him and the company. He beamed a smile at her and replied, "The experiments are going at a much faster and smoother pace than what I expected. In less than a month, I'll be able to execute my plan."

"I was planning on preparing a huge, grand wedding ceremony for us, but I just can't wait any longer."

I'm also worried that Han might take Sarah away from me again if I put off the wedding until later.

Leah was inwardly shocked to hear that.

It's happening too soon!


I've found nothing concrete other than this plan that he's told me about.

"Aren't you worried that Han and the others might somehow find the location of the laboratory? What about Hendrik? He seems to be quite an influential man. What if he tries to sabotage your plan?"

Shawn let out a soft chuckle. He had a triumphant look in his eyes. "I'm the only person who knows the exact location of the laboratory. Even the people inside it have no knowledge of this piece of information. It's at a place where no one would ever be able to find it!"

"No one would be able to stop my plan this time!"

At long last, I'll be able to know what it feels like to have Han crushed underneath my feet!

Soon afterward, their car pulled up outside a French cuisine restaurant.

Leah trembled a little as she exited the car and felt the chilly breeze blowing at her face.

Still, it was nothing compared to the shock and horror she was feeling inside.

Shawn was so confident that no one would be able to find his laboratory. Where on earth could the location be?

I don't think I could wait until he brings me there two days later…

"Sarah, what would you like to eat?" Shawn's voice interrupted Leah's train of thought.

She took the menu and was about to browse through the list. Suddenly, she spotted a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye.

"Lucy?"

She watched as the woman ran out of the restaurant with a terrified expression on her face. Then, she hurriedly got up and went after her.

An enigmatic smile played on Shawn's lips as he stared at Leah's receding figure.

"The plan has been set in motion. I wish you luck, Han Howard."

This time, there's no way Sarah would trust your words!

"Lucy, wait! What's the matter? You can tell me if you're in any trouble!" Leah called after Lucy.

She had a foreboding feeling about this.

What's happened to Lucy? Why does she look so scared and distressed?

Upon hearing Leah's voice, Lucy stopped and turned around. It seemed like she had something to say at first. However, Lucy just shook her head and smiled sadly at Leah.

"Don't come any closer, Ms. White. Don't follow me…"

Leah did not hear her soft murmurs as the wind picked up speed at that moment.

Just then, two men dressed in black suits rushed past Leah and headed toward Lucy. They were carrying guns with them.

"Stop right there! Mr. Howard wants you dead! There's no point running away!"

Leah couldn't believe her ears. She shook her head slowly as she stared at those men.

Han has sent those men to kill Lucy?

No! That's impossible!

Even though Han could be cold and frigid at times, he would never order his men to do something like this.

Leah tried to run after Lucy and those men. However, she ran out of strength a few minutes later. She stopped to catch her breath eventually, coughing a little due to the cold air.

"Sarah, why did you run so hard? Get in. We'll be able to catch up with them if I drive you there."
