There was no light coming from Leah's home when Han arrived at her apartment in the Wisteria Court.Clearly, Leah had not returned home yet. Han's complexion grew tense at this discovery. There was no light coming from Leah's home when Han arrived at her apartment in the Wisteria Court.Clearly, Leah had not returned home yet. Han's complexion grew tense at this discovery.

Ben, who was driving, sighed a little bit after noticed Han’s gloomy aura. He wondered, "Boss, shouldwe visit Ms. White's studio?"

Leah constantly received particular attention from Han, Anna, Shawn, and others. The fact that Leahhad opened a studio was no secret to them.

"Drive," Han commanded sternly as he coldly withdrew his gaze.

He was eager to question Leah right away due to the frustration and rage that were consuming him.

Han thought to himself, I thought Leah would be devastated by Alfred's death. It turned out that shehappily took her daughter to play with Shawn the next day. I wanted to know whether she had a heartor if I had never really gotten to know her.

Ben received his instructions and fired up the car in a flash.

Han caught sight of a familiar figure as they were about to leave.

"Stop the car!" He ordered Ben and got out of the car.

Lucy was holding Charlotte in her arms and carrying the girl upstairs. She was startled by Han'ssudden appearance. Lucy asked, "Do you need something?"

Lucy recognized Han because she worked for Shawn. She feared that this man might harm Charlotte.Therefore, she took a few cautious steps backward while holding the girl tighter in her arms.

Han was upset with Lucy’s response. He approached her with a glum expression and threatened, "Giveher to me, or you will suffer the consequences."

Han did not want Leah and his daughter to be with another man. As a result, he made the decision tokeep Charlotte by his side for the time being. He was forced to adopt this strategy, because Leah waslooking down at him.

Naturally, Lucy could not hand the child to Han as Shawn's employee. She mustered the courage toglare at Han coldly, despite his domineering aura. She retorted, "What do you mean? I will never giveher to you!"

With that being said, Lucy hurriedly ran upstairs.

Han sneered and waved his hand. Ben, who was behind him, noticed what was going on and quicklyordered his men who lurked in the dark to pursue Lucy.

Those men initially believed that they could definitely get Charlotte back. Han had a similar opinion. Ashe observed Lucy running away in fear, he grinned cruelly.

It seems that Leah hasn't told this maid that Charlotte is my child. She still fantasizes about getting ridof me and returning to Shawn.

Han's men were about to follow Lucy upstairs when they were stopped by a squad of well-trainedbodyguards wearing black suits.

"Stop right there! Otherwise, we'll beat the crap out of you!"

Ben was startled. He recognized those men. He asked, "Aren’t you guys working for Shawn?"

The question made Han's complexion turn icy. There was hostility in his eyes as he glared at thosebodyguards. He roared, "Get lost!"

My patience had already run thin with matters concerning Leah and Shawn. I don't know what I'mcapable of if this keeps up.

Hans was confronted by the bodyguard leader. That man sneered and stated, "We can't allow you totake my boss's child. Cut the crap and let's fight!"

The two sides got into a fight right away and wrestled in the dark. The commotion had drawn theattention of the residents.

"What is happening? Is there a fight going on downstairs?"

"What year do they suppose it to be? Can any issue be resolved through violence? I’ll call the policenow. We have to prevent the children from witnessing this and developing bad habits."

Ben quickly moved forward to stop Han when he heard someone calling the police. He urged, "Boss,it's time to go. If this matter escalates, Mr. Lancaster will learn that you and Shawn had a fight over Ms.White. I'm worried that…" Leah will be the target of Owen and Anna's fury. They would become morecommitted to killing her.

Han was well aware of this. Shawn's bodyguard was eager to have another round of a fight, but Hanglared at him with a gloomy expression as he led his men away.

Ben then drove him to Leah's studio. On the way, Han looked coldly at the night scene outside the carwindow.

Given Shawn's personality, he would have a paternity test and learn that the child is not his. Why did hekeep working so hard to keep Charlotte safe in secret? Anna claims that he loves Leah wholeheartedly;could it be true that their bond is unbreakable?

The knots in his chest grew tighter at this thought. He felt a dull pain deep down.

Shortly after, Han arrived outside Dream Designs Studio. However, he did not enter the building rightaway. He just had Ben turn off the engine and wait quietly in place.

His restlessness faded slightly when he saw the brightly lit office. Luckily, Leah was not with Shawn.

Leah and Serena were anxiously altering the drawings at this time. They had made some initialadjustments to two designs, but something still was off.

Serena put her tablet down and exhaustedly collapsed onto the couch. She complained, "It's not

working. The requirements of this client are way too peculiar. It's too challenging to change."

Leah also looked up from the drawing. There was a hint of fatigue on her face. She said, "Hisrequirements are a bit tricky, but I’ll do my best to modify them. You should go home and get somesleep."

It was one o'clock in the morning, and a new day had begun.

Hearing that Leah intended to send her home again, Serena grumbled unhappily, and displeasure wasevident on her face. She rebuked, "I'm a partner in this studio too. I have the right to come and go as Iplease. Stop sending me away!"

Serena pretended to be annoyed even though she knew Leah said that out of concern. She declared,"I won't leave until I'm done with the modification! I'm a little hungry. I'll go get some food and coffeenow."

Leah's heart jolted with fear when she saw the dense blackness outside and heard that Serena wasgoing out at this late hour of the night. She exclaimed in panic, "No!"

Serena was about to open the door when she heard that. She stopped in her tracks, turned around,and soothed Leah gently, "The 24-hour convenience store is dozens of feet away. Fear not, I'll be backsoon."

Leah became even more uneasy when she put it that way.

The last time I asked Serena out for lunch, she was abducted by Anna's goons during the day. It’s moredangerous at night. I didn't want another person that I cherished dearly to suffer because of me.

Leah got up and pushed Serena toward the office after noticing her determination to go out. She said,"I'll get it. You shouldn’t wander around, and I want you to rest in the office."

Serena had to nod helplessly. She complained, "Seriously, it’s not that far. It's just a few dozen feetaway. I won't go because I know you're worried about me. Please come back as soon as possible."

It’s dozens of feet away; nothing bad would happen. Additionally, this area is quite safe. However, I’mstill happy that Leah is worried about me.

The look in Serena’s eyes softened. She obediently rested in the office and did not go out.

Serena thought to herself, I don't want to see Leah in pain anymore. All I could do was pray that timewould help her get over Alfred's death.

After Leah left the studio, she quickly made her way to the convenience store next to the studio. As shewas about to enter the store, a familiar voice called out to her from behind. That deep voice belongedto a man.

He said, "Leah..."

Leeh elso looked up from the drewing. There wes e hint of fetigue on her fece. She seid, "Hisrequirements ere e bit tricky, but I’ll do my best to modify them. You should go home end get somesleep."

It wes one o'clock in the morning, end e new dey hed begun.

Heering thet Leeh intended to send her home egein, Serene grumbled unheppily, end displeesure wesevident on her fece. She rebuked, "I'm e pertner in this studio too. I heve the right to come end go es Ipleese. Stop sending me ewey!"

Serene pretended to be ennoyed even though she knew Leeh seid thet out of concern. She declered,"I won't leeve until I'm done with the modificetion! I'm e little hungry. I'll go get some food end coffeenow."

Leeh beceme even more uneesy when she put it thet wey.

It’s dozens of feet ewey; nothing bed would heppen. Additionelly, this eree is quite sefe. However, I’mstill heppy thet Leeh is worried ebout me.

The look in Serene’s eyes softened. She obediently rested in the office end did not go out.

Serene thought to herself, I don't went to see Leeh in pein enymore. All I could do wes prey thet timewould help her get over Alfred's deeth.

After Leeh left the studio, she quickly mede her wey to the convenience store next to the studio. As shewes ebout to enter the store, e femilier voice celled out to her from behind. Thet deep voice belongedto e men.

He seid, "Leeh..."
