Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 151

Chapter 151

Leah gazed coldly at Han’s rain-drenched face. His cold demeanor was breaking apart. In his eyes was a hint of agony and disbelief, as well as the reflection of her own face.

Leah did not expect that she could be so cold when facing Han.

“People change, Han,” said Leah. “I really loved you in the past. Even if you broke my heart and made me cry, I’d wipe away my tears and love you all the same.”

Han’s eyes widened slightly, as if he saw a sliver of hope.

“What about now?” he asked.

“Now?” replied Leah, “I don’t love you anymore.”

Han was overwhelmed with despair. The bright red rose in Leah’s hand was an ironic contrast to what she said.

“No.” Han shook his head. “It’s not that you don’t love me anymore, you only hold a grudge against me because of what we did to you in the past.” Han moved forward and grabbed Leah’s hand.

Han’s cold and soaking wet hand made Leah shiver.

“Give me some time. I can make it up to you,” Han said with a solemn face.

If Leah had not known that Han was drunk from wine, she would have believed every word he said.

Leah reflexively pushed Han away, but her strength was no match compared to his, so she can’t cut loose from Han’s grip.

She was starting to get nervous, and her umbrella dropped to the ground as she struggled. “Don’t you get it, Han Howard? I have no feelings for you anymore, and I mean it.”

“Why?” Han looked at Leah with his teary eyes.

This expression… reminded Leah of herself back then.

A dejected face that kept asking the same question. “Why?Why?”

But Han did not respond.

Even though Han ignored her, Leah dwelled on it and had faith in Han. However, Han had never wanted to tell her the truth.

Han only wanted to torment Leah in this relationship.

“You said you want to make it up to me. What do you plan to do?” Leah gave a wry smile. “Can you? You’ve wasted ten years of my life. My child and the terrible things you did to me… How can you ever repay what you owe me?”

Han slightly parted his lips as if he wanted to say something.

Leah took the chance and shook off Han’s hand. The pouring rain covered Leah and she was totally soaked.

The rain blinded her vision and she could barely see Han’s face, but she could sense his despair clearly.

Han was stupefied as he looked at Leah.

“If you’re willing to give me a chance, I can compensate for everything I did to you. Children… we can have many children. I’ll make it up to you. I’ll apologize to you. Anything. I will do anything.”

Leah smirked contemptuously.

The Leah two years ago would never believe that Han would beg and grovel to her.

Love is such a mystical thing.

“No need for that, Han. We are done.” said Leah.

Leah slowly picked up her umbrella while holding the rose in her hand. “I’m going home. The rain is too heavy, so you should return and get some rest.”

Han grimaced.

He closed his eyes while wanting to reach for Leah, but he did not.

Wild roses were Leah’s favorite flower. That was why she guarded Han’s mansion that was filled with wild roses for years. Han did not plant those flowers, and he never gave her any flowers before.

Some time later, Leah met a person that gave her roses.

Compared to wild roses, Leah was not fond of roses. In any case, neither was superior to the other anyway.

…

Ian parked his car right in front of the Sanders’ mansion.

Ian immediately frowned as he got down the car. He saw a lady in a white dress curling up in the corner. The lady reflexively raised her head when she heard the noise of a vehicle.

“Ian…” Sasha called out for Ian wretchedly. Her flimsy dress was completely drenched in the pouring rain.

Ian was puzzled as he walked over with his umbrella. “Why are you still here?”

“I’m here to find you, Ian. I’m so sorry.” Sasha felt miserable. “I do not wish to interrupt your life, and I know you will be getting married with Sarah soon. But I couldn’t hold myself back, Ian. You’re the only one I have left, so I have no choice but to look for you.”

Ian was perplexed. “Only? Where have you been for the past two years?”

Ian already assumed that Sasha would not answer his question. However, she suddenly burst into tears and hugged him tightly.

Ian wanted to push Sasha away, but with the umbrella in his hand, he did not have the strength to budge her.

“A bad guy kept me captive, and I couldn’t escape! He threatened me not to look for you, and he even murdered my dad. I’m scared, Ian…” Sasha was barely comprehensible in between her sobs.

She grabbed Ian tightly while her body trembled unceremoniously, as if she was truly afraid.

Sasha was Ian’s childhood friend. Even though Sasha was a prideful person, Ian thought she did not deserve this fate.

He believed what Sasha said, and his doubts about her character were cleared.

Ian thought Sasha had something to do with Gordon’s death.

Come to think of it, Gordon had raised Sasha since she was a baby. It was absurd to think that Sasha would be this cruel to kill Gordon.

Ian gave a sigh of relief and patted Sasha on her shoulder to console her.

Right after Sasha calmed down only then he asked. “How did you escape?”

“I have been secretly looking for ways to escape for the past two years. A few days ago, I finally saw my chance when he left the place, but I was afraid that he would come out and hunt me down, so I hid myself and waited for a few days. I was at wit’s end because there was nowhere to go, and I didn’t have any money. I’m scared, Ian, I have no other choice but to look for you. I didn’t mean to impose,” said Sasha.

Ian did not think Sasha was lying. He looked at her and sighed. “So what do you plan to do now?”

“You’re my only hope, Ian.” Sasha wept while repeating it over and over.
