Begging For A Reconciliation

However, as Owen watched the auction attendant bring the red wine to Leah, Owen's anger dissipated.

On the contrary, Owen smirked.

The show is about to start!

After the auction attendant handed the red wine to Leah, he said respectfully, "Miss, here's the red wine

provided by the venue for everyone to enjoy."

Leah held the wine glass with a complicated expression.

The scarlet liquid gave Leah an uneasy feeling. Based on her experience of being targeted multiple

times, Leah suspected something was wrong with the wine.

Leah thought to herself, Hendrik once said that this place belonged to him. This should be fine.

The rich aroma of the wine dispelled Leah's suspicion since she was thirsty too.

The slightly spicy and sweet liquid flowed down Leah's throat. Leah felt a warm and comfortable

sensation spread throughout her body.

The warm dissipated the cold troubling Leah.

Soon, Leah felt drowsy, and she heard Owen raising his bid to 80 million in a daze.

Leah raised her hand, wanting to continue the bid. However, Leah was fast asleep.

At the last second when Leah fell unconscious, Leah felt despair in her heart.

There is something wrong with the wine. Leah was foolish. Leah realized something was wrong, but

she still fell for the trap.

In the end, Leah failed to compete further in the bidding. Owen bid on the jade finger ring for a price of

80 million.

The auction was filled with flattery.

"Mr. Lancaster is definitely the richest person around. None of the three men that Sarah seduced can

compare to him!"

"Sarah makes the wrong bet. Since Sarah is kept as a sugar baby, why doesn't she choose Mr.

Lancaster?"

Owen felt his frustration dissipate, and he was overjoyed with everyone's flattery.

Owen exchanged a few compliments with the people in the venue before leaving with his jade finger

ring.

The auction attendant serving Owen received the hint, and he brought the asleep Leah out of the

Ocean Hotel.

Owen knew this place was under Hendrik's control, and Owen was aware that it was unrealistic to

make a move against Leah at this place.

In the evening, Leah was brought to a cheap hotel.

A splash of cold water woke the sleeping Leah.

"Who are you…" Leah choked on the water. Then, Leah realized the thugs in the room stared at her

lustfully, and she panicked.

Leah's drenched clothes clung tightly to her skin, accentuating her sexy and toned figure. The thugs in

the room were surging with lust upon the view.

"You're quite attractive. No wonder so many big shots are drawn to you. Today, let our brothers have a

good time with you…"

The thugs inched closer with lustful smiles.

Perhaps it came from Leah's survival instinct, or it could be Leah's growth.

Leah's trembling body suddenly stopped. Leah expressed her anger as she stared at the thugs, "Since

you know many big shots are backing me up, how dare you lay your hand on me?"

"Are you not afraid of losing your life?"

Leah heard Han's words that were filled with killing intent many times. At this moment, Leah had easily

replicated the tone.

The thugs shuddered with their brows furrowed. Then, the thugs discussed softly, "Boss, any of the

men behind her can make us disappear quietly in Linkville."

"It isn't worth it to gamble our future for the money."

As the thugs talked among themselves, the thugs lost their previous lust. Their expressions were filled

with unwillingness and hesitation.

"That's a lot of money. Since she is already here, we just have to get rid of her later. Then, we will

quickly flee overseas…"

Hearing the thugs' plan, Leah devised a new plan.

Leah took a deep breath to suppress her panic. Leah tidied her hair leisurely with a sneer, "Are you

trying to challenge their ability?"

"I have bodyguards keeping tabs on me in secret. Soon, this place will be surrounded. If you make a

move on me, you will have no chance to survive."

In comparison to the confidence Leah displayed, Leah felt unsettled in her heart.

There were no bodyguards. Lead made it all up to delay the time and find the opportunity to escape.

Leah could not wait for someone else to rescue her every time. Leah wanted some form of growth in

herself.

Charlotte would grow up day by day. If Leah had stayed naive, she would not be able to escape

danger. Things would happen like what Han had said.

Leah would not be a qualified mother who could protect Charlotte.

"Ah…" The thugs were terrified because of Leah's words. They quickly went to the window to check on

their surroundings.

A couple of cars happened to be parked below the hotel. The thugs' faces turned pale, "There are

really cars here. These are special taillights exclusive to luxury cars! Rich people wouldn't come to this

kind of hotel. This is not good…"

Leah was surprised, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. It seemed luck was on Leah's side.

Leah cleared her throat, and her beautiful eyes were clear, "As long as I walk out by myself now, you

guys will be fine."

The thugs had seemingly found their last straw to survive, and they pleaded for Leah to leave quickly,

"Miss, please just go. It is all a mistake!"

However, Leah sneered, "Before that, tell me who gets you to make a move on me."

The thugs were so anxious that they only wanted Leah to leave quickly, and they immediately blurted

out, "We don't know. It was a deal made online…"
