Chapter 439 Stop Mocking

It was the next day. Shawn did not return home for the entire night.

Leah was informed by Han's informant at Ford Mansion early in the morning that Han would carry out the plan and remove her from the residence.

She felt dazed by the bleak winter scene playing endlessly outside the car window.

Her heart was beating so loudly that she could hear it.

Finally, she did what she could with her own strength.

Half an hour later, the informant brought her to Dream Designs, and after a brief goodbye, he returned to Han's men.

Serena greeted her as soon as she walked into the studio.

"Sarah, why are the employees not allowed to come to work today?"

Carlotta's injuries had healed completely. She imitated the adult and echoed, "Yes, Mommy. Why? Is it because you finished your work and plan to take me out to play today?"

Carlotta's childish voice was endearing. Her voice was like a gentle spring breeze, gently blowing away her anxiety.

Leah smiled and walked out with Carlotta in her arms. She then told Serena to follow her. She said,

"Let's go. We're going to Han's. I'll explain everything."

Serena had greatly contributed to the success of her plan.

Her tolerance and understanding have consistently served as a ray of light, rescuing her from the depths of darkness time and time again.

They arrived at Han's Villa Victoria not long after.

Carlotta was glad to be back after being gone for so long, so she followed the butler around the villa.

"Where is Daddy? Where has Daddy gone?!"

Carlotta was running around aimlessly.

When the butler noticed that, his heart almost leaped out of his chest as he quickly trotted to safeguard her, saying, "Carlotta, take care not to trip and fall! Mr. Howard is unlikely to return until afternoon."

Suddenly losing her composure, Carlotta wanted to return to the room to talk to Leah and Serena. She had the good sense to stay out of their conversation when she noticed them talking seriously.

"Uncle Martin, please help me turn on the TV and play my favorite TV show..."

The butler dotingly agreed to her request and sat next to her to watch TV with her.

Serena was shocked beyond belief when she heard what Leah had to say.

"Shawn's heart had to be twisted, right? He actually did this to take down Han?!"

Leah neither denied nor confirmed that. "Yesterday, Han found all his laboratories' test sites, and we should be ready to go into battle soon, so it's safer to be here at his place," she continued, her face conflicted.

Serena remained silent after hearing everything, then drew her into her arms for a tight hug, tears in her eyes.

"I knew you had to have your own reasons... I can only imagine how difficult it was for you..."

She would have gone insane if she had to deal with Shawn and such a massive plan.

This once gentle and meek girl had become a strong woman without realizing it.

Han was on the move.

It was nearly noon.

Various news outlets widely reported Shawn's illegal activities on television.

"The police are looking for a well-known entrepreneur suspected of breaking the law. Please contact us by phone if any witnesses can provide information..."

Leah was conflicted as she watched the news that Shawn had evaded arrest.

She had sent him down this path with her own hands.

She would not, however, regret that. She was thankful for everything he had done for her and Carlotta over the last two years. For that reason, she hoped he would return to the path of righteousness.

Han called at this point.

Leah asked in a somewhat urgent manner, "How are things?

She hoped they had hit the nail on the head this time and that once the dust settled, the world would be at peace for the remainder of the time.

Han's icy voice came over the phone, "His labs had been raided, but he had escaped. The police will handle the follow-up work."

"He immediately absolved himself of most of the blame after realizing what had occurred by placing the entire burden of responsibility on Jackson, who was hardly human anymore. He would be spared the death penalty even if he were to be caught."

Overall, the situation with the laboratories was resolved, and Shawn would most likely not be seen again for a long time.

However, Leah's heart could not be at ease for some reason.

Shawn's vindictive personality dictated that he would soon exact vengeance on her or those close to her.

"Let's put Dream Designs on hold for a while. We'll resume work as soon as we find a new location," she suggested as she cast a worried glance Serena's way.

She didn't want to put Serena's life at risk just to make this meager sum of money.

Serena naturally understood her concern and agreed, "Okay. I'll try not to go out during this period. You should also be careful."

As she said that, she moved closer to Leah and then teased, "Right, there's no need for me to worry about you. A certain someone will protect you nicely."

"What's going on between you and him, by the way? Do you like him but are afraid to tell him?"

Her words were direct, and Leah's cheeks flushed slightly as she said, "About that... This is not the time to discuss it..."

She understood her heart well. She could not possibly pretend she had no feelings for Han.

Despite having him inside her heart, she was afraid to give him her heart.

Han stated that he would exact vengeance on her. How could she give herself up to the enemy when the enemy had yet to exact his revenge?

…

A massive cruise ship was sailing on the sea.

Shawn had a glum expression as he stood by the railing. His eyes were bloodshot, and his fists were dripping with blood.

He appeared to have just let off some steam.

Being betrayed by someone you loved was a terrible feeling.

Anna appeared from behind, beaming, and said, "Shawn, you're far worse than I am. Because of that woman, you've lost everything!"

"I told you to kill her long ago, but you didn't want to. You so deserve it!"

Her expression was a little twisted. The sorrow and anger in her heart greatly diminished when she realized that someone was worse off than she was.

Shawn's eyes grew icy, and he spun around and violently grabbed her neck. He said, "Shut up! Do you believe that your situation is significantly better than mine?"

"Fetriybia is nearly gone, and you're still here hoping Han will return to you? How absurd!"

He didn't believe Sarah would betray him.

She must have done it because Han must have threatened her using Carlotta.

Shawn was making excuses for himself and trying to keep the non-existent love between him and Leah alive.

However, Anna saw right through his thoughts and cruelly mocked him, saying, "Yes! I'm not much better than you, but you still believe that woman actually loves you. Don't you think that's absurd?"

Anna broke free from Shawn's chokehold by taking advantage of his dazed state. "How about this? Let's just stop mocking each other," she said, putting on a cold face.

"This time, you must heed my advice if you want to make a comeback. Capture that woman and threaten Ethan with her..."
