Chapter 276 My Woman

The moment the door shut behind her, the man on the bed opened his eyes. No emotion showed on

his face. There was also an empty look in his eyes.

Leah left after all.

After Leah left the apartment, she immediately made her way to the Ford family villa. The longer she

delayed the inevitable, the more reluctant she would be to leave.

Shawn was enjoying a cup of coffee in the lounge, though his attention would often stray to the front

gates. Leah had called claiming she would be here yesterday, but he never saw her as someone who

would so easily concede.

It would be unlike her to just give up like that.

"She's here, sir."

One of his men stationed outside the gate rushed in, panting to report her arrival.

Seeing a pregnant woman come to the Ford villa was a first.

Shawn raised a brow and set his coffee aside. He could barely conceal the surprise on his visage as he

hurried to the door. The moment he set foot in the courtyard, he caught sight of a slender silhouette

and a familiar face.

"I didn't think you would keep your promise."

He hid his excitement when he reached her.

Leah stayed where she was. "I'm here now. Now you should fulfill your promise. You'll let Han go?"

She looked up at the man in front of her.

She had forsaken everything. Love was dead. She didn't even want to see Han make his comeback.

All she wished for was for him to be safe.

Shawn was furious as he grabbed her chin and forced her to look at him.

"Han! It's always Han!"

"Is that piece of trash the only thing you care about?"

He thought Han would be his most formidable opponent but this woman was proving him wrong.

She instinctively struggled but stopped to scoff and nodded.

"You should already know the answer to that. Why did you want me to come here?"

She believed having her by his side was simply another way for him to rub it into Han's face.

It sickened her but she would do anything for Han.

Shawn snorted and released her. "Take her upstairs. She's not allowed to come downstairs without my

consent. If she runs away, the lot of you can forget about continuing your pitiful lives."

Everyone came to understand Leah's importance after receiving a fright by his words.

The head maid showed Leah the way.

"This way please, Ms. White."

"I hope you keep your promise."

Leah reminded Shawn as she passed him by.

If he refused to let Han go, everything she was doing would become meaningless.

She followed the maid upstairs.

"My name is Lucy, Ms. White. If you need anything, feel free to come to me."

The maid briefly introduced herself before organizing the room for the pregnant Leah.

Lucy was curious as to who Leah was and wasn't too keen to satisfy her curiosity with the Ford family's

rules in place.

Alfred arrived at the apartment shortly after Leah left.

"Mr. Howard."

He greeted Han respectfully. There was something distinctly off about Han today.

"What did you find out?"

Han had someone look into Leah's whereabouts after she left.

He wanted to know if Shawn had been threatening her.

Alfred reported everything he had found out to Han.

"Ms. White is now at the Ford family home."

The incident might be an opportunity for Han.

Han had been refusing to leave the apartment and Alfred guessed that it had to do with Leah. Now that

she was no longer here, he would have no qualms to linger.

The light in his eyes dimmed as he clenched his hands into fists. He took a deep breath and kept his

emotions in check.

After a while, he coldly said, "We're kicking off the plan."

He was going to show Shawn that he shouldn't fiddle with things that weren't his.

He explained every detail of his plan to Alfred and sent him away.

The embrace of the night soon came. Han got back into his wheelchair to maintain a motionless

posture as he watched the door.

He was waiting for Leah to come home.

Night came and left. The first rays of sunlight hitting him had his lips twitching into a sarcastic smile.

He dialed Leah's number.

The call quickly connected.

"I haven't heard from you in a while, Mr. Howard. How have you been?"

What greeted him was not Leah's voice but Shawn's mocking laughter.

"Where is she?"

Han resisted the urge to smash his phone. He could accept Leah leaving without a word but he wanted

to know the truth.

He wanted to know if she had left because of Shawn's threats.

Shawn sounded arrogant. "She's fine. You don't have to worry about my woman."

He ordered someone to confiscate her cell phone when she arrived at the villa yesterday. He had

guessed that Han would come calling.

Shawn picking up his call was to irritate Han.

"Han, oh, Han. You didn't think all this would happen, did you? For you to be where you are now, a

crippled man who can't even keep his woman by his side."

Shawn continued to mock him.

"You should thank me. Thank me for not killing you and allowing you to live this miserable life."

In Shawn's opinion, it was far more entertaining to see Han lose it all. Death was an easy way out.

Han hung up the phone.

He had predicted it all but it didn't change how his heart ached.

Back in the villa, Shawn had Han's number blacklisted before tossing Leah's phone aside.

He then turned to Lucy.

"Is she awake?"

Lucy shook her head. "No, Mr. Ford. She has been refusing to eat or drink since yesterday."

He sneered and made his way upstairs.

He had his ways of dealing with her.

Leah had her eyes closed. It had been a day. Her stomach had long been empty. Her only way of

preserving her strength was to lie down.

Creak.

The door came open.

Her tone was impatient. "I said I'm not eating, Lucy. Stop wasting your time."

She didn't open her eyes and failed to see that it wasn't Lucy at her door.

Leah could immediately tell something was off when she felt a fiery gaze at the door. Her eyes flew

open to see Shawn.
