Chapter 83
In that regard, Leah’s face paled slightly.
When he saw her contorted face, Ron retracted his words and sighed slightly, “You just woke up. Rest first. I’ll ask someone to get you something to eat.”
Leah nodded, and Ron left.
Leah’s body gradually recovered after a few days at Ron’s house.
It was also during these past few days that she got to know Ron better.
That man was not as violent as she had imagined.
He was carefree and a little obtuse at times.
Three days passed in that manner. Leah was dazed in the living room on this particular day. The door was opened, and Ron emerged in a state of disarray.
He took a glass of water and placed it in front of Leah, saying, “We can’t stay here any longer. What are you going to do?”
Leah’s first reaction was to ask him, “Why can’t we stay here anymore?”
Ron shrugged, his expression seemed indifferent. “My enemy has discovered this location, and he should arrive in a matter of days, so I am changing places.”
It ended up being the case.
Leah heaved a sigh in relief.
Fortunately… It wasn’t Han who had found them.
She clenched her fists and considered for a moment, “How about I go with you?”
When Ron heard that, he raised his eyebrows and a grin popped up on his face. “Leah, do you know what this sentence means?”
Leah’s face flushed, and she bit her lower lip helplessly. “I didn’t mean it that way.” Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Ron’s smile broadened, and he unexpectedly reached out his hand and pinched her cheeks, saying, “I know.”
After he finished speaking, he stood up and said, “Then pack your belongings, we’ll be moving in the next two days.”
Leah nodded, and said, “Okay.”
Ron was surprised to see her agree so firmly. He turned and studied her, his eyes somewhat meaningful.
“Have you given it serious thought, Leah?”
“What?”
“You must be always ready to leave at any time if you want to follow me because I am a ruffian, and I am doomed to never be able to settle down in one place.”
His eyes were a little deep when he said those words, and his handsome face was mature and unmatched for his age.
Previously, a woman had stated that she would follow him.
Later, she died because of him.
Leah’s heart froze, her palms clenched slightly.
“I…” She bit her lip.
In fact, she didn’t give it much thought at all.
However, it appeared that following Ron was the best option.
After a while, Leah nodded, “I’ll go with you.”
“Whether you are fleeing for your life or aimlessly wandering the globe,” she said as she inhaled deeply, and her tone grew steadily firmer.
Ron looked at her with deep eyes.
He suddenly experienced an emotion he never felt before.
“Okay.”
……
Meanwhile, Han had returned to find Leah gone.
The maid turned pale with fear and knelt on the ground quickly to admit her fault. “Sir, I just went to get something, and Ms. White managed to flee. I don’t know…”
Han narrowed his eyes slightly and clenched his fists tightly.
He had no idea that that woman would dare to flee.
He frowned slightly as he remembered the stack of documents he had left on the sofa the day before.
Could it be that she saw the documents and discovered Charlie’s whereabouts, so she went looking for him?
If this is the case, she is likely to be in danger.
With that in mind, Han made a quick phone call. “Find that woman right away.”
Three days had quickly gone by.
It had been three days and there was still no news of Leah.
Han even wondered if she had left Linkville.
No, she couldn’t have left.
On the fourth day, Leah packed her belongings and left the small apartment with Ron early in the morning.
Leah looked out the window as she sat in the car.
“What’s the matter?” Ron asked as he started the car.
Leah sighed and asked him, “How has my mother been lately?”
Ron raised his eyebrows, thinking for a moment. “The situation doesn’t seem very good. The entire White family was devastated since the last incident.”
Leah’s heart sank even more when she heard that.
She bit her lower lip and turned to face Ron. “Can you take me back to the White House to take a look? Only one quick look,” she asked, her eyes had a beseeching look in them.
Ron questioned her, “Are you certain?”
He had a bad feeling about it.
Leah nodded.
“All right,” Ron said, “since it is your wish, I will fulfill it.”
He started the car and drove to the White family’s villa after he finished speaking.
The car arrived at the villa’s gate half an hour later.
Leah entered the password, the iron gate slowly opened, and she heaved a sigh of relief.
The password has not been changed, proving… Maybe Mom realized she had been misunderstood as well.
Her heart ached as she remembered what had happened before.
“Go in by yourself. I’ll wait for you in the car.” Ron slowly lit a cigarette for himself, and a flash of disgust flashed through his eyes as he looked at the White family’s villa.
Leah was so consumed with Jane at the time, so it was natural that she did not see it.
She entered the villa, walked through the fountain and garden, and then came to a halt in front of the pavilion.
A woman was sitting in the pavilion at the time, wearing a white skirt and her long hair was slightly pulled up. Her back was to her, and the image appeared to be very peaceful and tranquil.
When Leah saw that figure, her eyes suddenly turned red.
She walked towards Jane.
Jane turned around when she detected some sound, her initially calm expression changed slightly when she saw Leah.
Jane cried to Leah, “Don’t get any closer.”
Leah’s steps came to a halt as pain flashed across her eyes.
“Mom, it’s me.” Leah looked at her.
Jane’s tears flowed down instantly.
She looked at Leah and shook her head. “I don’t want to see you yet. You should leave.”
Leah could only feel the pain in her heart. “You believe those rumors outside, don’t you? But how could I possibly kill dad? He’s my father,” she said, her voice trembling slightly.
Jane was crying and covering her mouth as she looked at her.
Leah took a deep breath and smiled sadly.
She thought this was her home.
However, her only home was now gone.
“Don’t worry, Mom. I just came back to check on you. I’m relieved that you’re okay.” Leah smiled, “I’m leaving. Han must be looking for me. I can’t stay in Linkville any longer. Maybe… I’ll never be back here again.”
“It’s my fault that I brought disaster to the White family. You must look after your health after I leave.” Leah knelt and bowed respectfully to Jane.
“Take care, mom,” she said.
Jane burst into tears.
She tried to speak up to stop Leah, but her voice got caught in her throat.
She just stood there, helpless, as Leah turned around and walked away.
The moment Leah turned around, her tears could no longer be held back.
She wiped her tears away and took a deep breath.
She held no grudges against anyone.
Leah walked out of the villa’s gate and towards Ron’s car.
“Screech!”
However, at this time, a black Bugatti came to a screeching halt in front of her.
