“Tsk, tsk, tsk It’s him again. This guy is a Casanova. He has his wife and child in his arms, and he still

has designs for you. He pursued you all the way to the village the last time. I thought he was crazy

about you.” Serena took a good look at Han and sighed, shaking her head.

When she first returned to Pasteria and saw Han, who was stunning in appearance and temperament,

she had a fleeting thought of having an affair.

Her mind was put at ease now that she knew this man was not a good person. Furthermore, he was

obviously more interested in Leah, and their relationship was so delicate. Serena didn’t want to

navigate treacherous waters.

She merely wanted to watch from the sidelines.

Leah’s eyes met Han for just two seconds before they drifted away expressionlessly.

“Do you still want to go shopping?” she asked Serena after standing up and giving her an interested

look.

“Yes, of course! Why would we not go shopping? Let’s get going.” She grabbed Leah’s arm and led her

out of the jewelry store.

Leah felt a burning gaze on her back as soon as she walked out of the jewelry store, and she didn’t

have to turn around to see who it was.

Han appeared to have a gut feeling because his eyes were drawn to Leah the moment she appeared.

However, Leah left without looking back.

Even though she had walked some distance away, Han continued to stare deeply in the direction she

was leaving, oblivious to Molly, whose facial expression had changed beside him.

“Han, what are you looking at?” Molly asked, forcing a smile.

Han finally averted his gaze and stated flatly, “Nothing.”

As Molly’s hands hung by her sides, they were clenched tightly and the knuckles had a pale hue to

them. Her smile gradually became more rigid.

“Isn’t this a Fortune Group jewelry store? Their company is considered a competitor to yours, but Han,

did you know that Fortune Group has had a difficult time recently?” Molly cast a sarcastic glance at the

massive jewelry store in front of her.

Han followed her gaze to the store. Except for a few shop assistants and a single customer, the jewelry

store with exquisite decoration and design appeared to be desolate.

Han had been preoccupied with other matters recently, so he had no idea why.

Since she had mentioned it, he went along with her and asked her, “What?”

“Ian Sanders, the CEO of Fortune Group, and Cindy, the designer who had recently returned to

Pasteria, are involved in some sort of relationship. The woman’s character is terrible, which has

sparked outrage on the Internet. Because of her, everyone boycotted the jewelry she designed. The

Fortune Group was dragged in and is suffering as a result.” Molly emphasized that “the character is

terrible,” and openly and secretly mocked Leah.

She even highlighted Leah and Ian’s relationship.

Han’s thick black brows were slightly twisted as he listened to her words.

It wasn’t because of Molly’s words, though. It was because Leah was in trouble yet, again.

How could this woman be so unlucky that she kept getting caught in trouble just a few days after

returning to Pasteria?

With that in mind, Han said to Molly, “Today, I’m not going shopping. I still have work to do. I’m

returning to the office.”

Molly’s smile instantly froze at the corner of her mouth. She bit her lower lip, her face gloomy, and

asked, “Why?”

Han didn’t have the heart to explain it to her, so he walked away with Charlotte in his arms. Molly

couldn’t help but grit her teeth and follow him.

Ben was apprehensive when he saw Han enter the office. “What brings you back, Mr. Howard?”

Han’s temper has grown increasingly irritable since he last left Linkville and returned. He always had a

gloomy expression these days. Everyone in the group was aware of his unpredictable temperament,

and for fear of angering him, they dared not even make noise while walking.

“Hmm, find something out for me,” Han said expressionlessly as he loosened his tie and sat in his

chair.

“What do you want me to help you find?” Ben inquired quickly.

“Find out what kind of trouble Sarah White is in,” Han continued.

“All right, Sarah…” Ben wanted to say it again, but as soon as he started, his eyes widened

involuntarily.

Wait. Did he hear it right?

Did Mr. Howard say Sarah? As in Sarah White?!

He hadn’t heard this name in almost two years, and even if he had, he didn’t dare to mention it.

The name Sarah White was once a taboo for Han.

Now, however, he actually heard it from Mr. Howard’s mouth and he had said the words himself.

Han glared at him. “What are you doing standing there?”

Ben got his look, and even though he didn’t understand what was going on and was still shocked by

what happened, he handled it professionally.

It didn’t take long for Ben to learn about the situation and inform Han of its details.

Han leaned back in his office chair, his legs slightly crossed, and his face was solemn.

“Mr. Howard, I also learned that this incident was not accidental; rather, someone purposefully stoked

public dissent behind the scenes to slander Ms. White.” Ben stumbled.

“Hmm.” Han nodded indifferently, and said, “I know.”

Would you like me to conduct a thorough investigation, ascertain the perpetrator’s identity, seize the

perpetrator, and establish Miss White’s innocence? Ben continued to inquire cautiously.

“No.” Han, as expected, rejected his proposal.

Ben exhaled a sigh of relief, thinking that he was fortunate not to be chastised this time.

Who knew that in the next second, Han would stand up and declare, “I know who it is.”

Ben was stunned for a moment and inadvertently asked, “Who is it…”

Han rose to his feet and walked to the office’s floor-to-ceiling window, where he lowered his head to

observe the scene outside.

The number of times he had looked out the window like this over the previous two years escaped his

memory. He used to look out the window whenever he was upset.

He often wondered if there was anyone in this city worth remembering for her.

Fortunately, she did return.

Han had his back turned to Ben. Looking askance, he asked after a while, “I heard that Shawn Ford is

coming to Linkville?”

“Yes, he will arrive here on a plane the following morning.” Ben responded respectfully, albeit puzzled.

“Call him and let him know I’ve planned a banquet to welcome him back,” instructed Han.

Ben looked at Han again in surprise.

Everyone in the outside world now knew that Han and Shawn are business rivals. Han had never paid

attention to Ian or considered him to be a threat.

However, Shawn was an extremely cunning and ruthless individual who preferred to plot against

others.

Han hated him very much.

However, given that Shawn was visiting Linkville, why did Han even decide to host a banquet?

Ben didn’t understand it, but he didn’t dare to challenge it, so he could only lower his head and say,

“Okay.”

Han averted his gaze and clenched his fists slowly.
