Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 91

Leah looked at Ian.

The man in front of her was such a kind person, and his family background and temperament wereideal too.

Clearly, he deserved a better wife yet he had fallen for her, a divorcee and had gone through amiscarriage for Han. Even if he did not feel any disgust toward her, she would have still felt that shewas unworthy of him.

Her right to obtain true love had been long since gone.

Leah gave a wry grin and held her hands tightly together, “Ian, I’m sorry…I don’t think I can accept yourfeelings. Right now, I have been nothing but a disappointment towards myself and the White family,”she sighed.

“That’s alright,” Ian smiled back and said. Such a pleasant smile and yet it somehow looked sad.

He slowly shook his head, “As long as you say yes, I’ll take care of you and Mrs White,” he consoled.

Leah was stunned and confused. “But this would be unfair for you,” she objected.

“I don’t care about fairness.” Ian gently held Leah’s hands and looked at her. “I only want you,” heprofessed.

An uncomfortable feeling rose deep within her, and she managed to resist the urge to pull her handsout of his.

Leah lifted her head and looked at Ian while gradually showing a strained smile.

Ian was surprisingly satisfied upon seeing that.

…

The news of Ms White and Mr Sanders’ engagement soon spread like wildfire.

After all that happened in the White family, Jane thought it was time to hold a joyful event to lighten upthe mood in the family. She decided to host a lavish engagement party and invited the rich familiesaround Linkville.

Many people attended the party.

In the past, the White family was once regarded as a powerful family in Linkville too, and they weresurrounded by fame and money. Now, it was reduced to a powerless family in just a month. Most of theguests were here simply to witness this joke.

On the day of the engagement party, Jane meticulously dressed Leah up.

Leah was a natural beauty with delicate pale skin. When she wore the light blue dress, it was as if shewere the princess of the ocean. She wore a silver crown and tied up her hair. Leah looked up to herreflection on the mirror and the makeup made her stunningly beautiful to the point where she almostcould not recognize herself.

Jane happily held onto her hands, “Beautiful,” she commented.

Leah looked up at Jane from the mirror and forced out a smile.

“Mrs and Ms White, Mr Sanders is ready and most of the guests have arrived.” A maid’s voice washeard outside the door.

“Let’s go.” Jane took Leah’s hand and smiled.

To Leah, this was her first engagement party.

Back when she was with Han, there was never a sense of celebration, let alone an engagement party.Their marriage was hastily done too.

Leah’s palms started to sweat a little as she thought about Han.

She hoped that he would not be here today.

When they arrived downstairs, there was indeed a huge crowd, and most of them had a gloating lookon their faces while staring at her.

When the guests saw Leah was doing fine, they started gossiping.

“Wasn’t it rumored that Ms. Sarah killed her own father? How dare she show herself?”

“Wasn’t the killer rumored to be another person instead?”

“I don’t think that rumor is true. I think Jane is simply protecting her daughter,”

“How shameless could she be to throw an engagement party when her dad had passed?”

“Isn’t Mr Sanders Sasha’s best friend since they were children? Why is he marrying Sarah Whiteinstead?”

“Who knows if they were in an affair? Sarah White is not an ordinary woman after all,”

“……”

As they did not gossip in a low voice, Leah heard all of their comments.

She clenched her hands slightly.

At that moment, Ian walked over and held onto her hand. “Let’s do this.” He smiled at her.

The ceremony was very simple but tediously long.

When the emcee announced the ring exchange ceremony, Leah suddenly felt a strong gaze upon her.

She instinctively turned around and saw a familiar pair of eyes!

It was Sasha!

In a flash, she caught Sasha’s sinister gaze on her, as if her eyes could burn a hole on her body.

Leah was sure that she saw Sasha there and lifted her dress as she ran down the stage.

Ian could only follow her down when he saw her running down the stage.

She searched around the audience, where Sasha was standing, but she could not replace her.

Leah started to feel anxious.

“What happened?” Ian grabbed onto her arm and frowned as he asked her.

Leah looked up at him, “I saw Sasha, I’m sure of it,” she mumbled.

Upon hearing that, Ian frowned. “Let’s finish up the engagement party first. I’ll send someone to replaceher. If she had appeared tonight, I’ll make sure to catch her,” he sighed and consoled.

“But… What if she escaped? Let’s seal off this place and replace her!” Leah panicked.

“The party hasn’t ended yet, Sarah. Don’t worry, we’ll replace her,” Ian tried to persuade Leah.

Leah sighed after hearing his reply and she nodded after a moment, agreeing to his suggestion.

Meanwhile, the guests at the side were surprised by their actions and the both of them continued towalk up to the stage.

The ring exchange ceremony was utmost important to Ian.

All of a sudden, there was a fuss around the entrance. The crowd automatically dispersed to make wayfor someone.

The sound of leather shoes walking could be heard.

After a while, a tall figure slowly appeared in the banquet hall.

Like a king, Han scanned around the room with his cold gaze.

His appearance instantly sent a chill down Leah’s spine.

Even Ian frowned and immediately had his guard up.

Han’s gaze quickly locked onto Leah once he stepped into the venue.

He was not planning on coming today as he did not receive their invitation, but when he heard Sarah’sname, memory fragments started to flash through Han’s mind.

A voice urged him to attend the party.

The feeling was unbelievably strong, and it was confirmed after he saw Leah.

Han lifted his chin up and slowly walked over toward Leah.
