Chapter 313 I Don’t Pity You

It came as a surprise to Leah when Han asked her to foot the payment. Knowing Han was wealthy, why

would he merely want Leah to pay for Anna’s hospital bills? Leah swiftly concealed the look of surprise

in her eyes as she accepted blame for involving Anna in the collision.

Leah immediately agreed. “Very well. I’ll take care of it.”

Han snatched his coat from the sofa and put it over his shoulders. “I’ll be going then. Take care of

Anna. You know what’ll happen if I hear a word that she’s hurt.”

Feeling abandoned by Han's concern for Anna, Leah watched as he exited the room. She did not show

her feelings, though, because she was well aware that she did not deserve him either. Meanwhile, as

Han was closing the door, he caught a glimpse of Leah’s look. He paused but quickly returned to his

cool demeanor.

Leah stayed for a long time at the hospital’s sofa to tend to Anna. Besides returning home at times to

check on Carlotta, she spent most of the time in the hospital. Carlotta held onto Leah tightly as her

beautiful eyes started to tear up. Unwilling to part with Leah, she mumbled, “Mommy, it’s been so long

since you’ve slept with me.”

Lucy agreed, “Yes, Ms. White. You’ve been leaving the house early and returning home late.” Lucy was

highly concerned about what Leah was up to that caused her to be out of the house most of the time.

As much as Leah did not want to part with Carlotta either, she pried Carlotta’s arms open and hand her

over to Lucy. Even though Lucy was still curious for an answer, she knew she could not press for an

explanation after seeing that Leah was not interested in giving one. She then took Lucy along to send

Leah to the elevator. As the elevator door closed, Carlotta pouted sadly. Seeing that made Lucy’s heart

melt and she quickly hugged Carlotta as she comforted softly, “Your mommy’s probably busy for a

while, Carlotta. Once she’s done, she’ll spend more time with you, okay?”

After putting Carlotta to sleep, Lucy then reported Leah’s unusual activity to Shawn. Meanwhile, Leah

carefully cleaned Anna’s body and changed her clothes. After tucking Anna to bed, Leah then lay on

the sofa to rest. She stared at the white ceiling above as thoughts ran through her mind. Only the

gentle rhythm of Anna’s IV drip and Leah’s slow breath could be heard in the quiet patient room.

Back at Lakeside Villa One, Han noticed his phone vibrated. He sighed heavily before answering the

call. He kept his cool as he smiled and greeted the man appearing on his phone’s screen, “Hello, Mr.

Lancaster.”

Owen, on the other side, was sitting upright as he scanned around Han’s background. When he did not

find the person he was looking for, his already-stern face turned grim. “Where’s Nana?”

Owen lost his wife early in their marriage life but did not remarry for Anna’s sake. Besides dealing with

national affairs, he would prioritize spending time with Anna above all else. Even when Han first got

together with Anna, Owen had recruited individuals to test him out multiple times.

Han replied calmly, “Anna is out shopping. She’ll be back a little late. You know her, she’s outgoing.”

“Is there a bodyguard with her?” Owen was ultimately concerned for Anna’s safety.

“Alfred is by her side.”

“Then, ask her to give me a call when she’s free.” As soon as Owen finished, he hung up the phone.

Han secretly sighed in relief as he stared at the blank screen. He felt much more relaxed, but he knew

that he had to quickly find a way to wake Anna up because something could go wrong the next time

Owen called. If Owen knew that Leah caused the accident, he surely would not let Leah go.

Han swiftly retrieved his coat from his chair and marched down the stairs. It was past midnight by the

time he arrived at the hospital. There was barely anyone at the quiet hallways besides the nurses. As a

nurse was about to greet Han, he gestured for her to stop. Towards the end of the corridor, he could

see that Anna's room was still well-lit. Han walked quietly to avoid alerting anyone in her room. As he

pushed open the door, he noticed Leah who was curled up on the sofa. He frowned at the sight before

averting his gaze away, pretending to ignore her. Han sat down before Anna’s bed and Leah had

clearly been looking after her very well.

“C-Cold…” Leah mumbled while in a daze as she hugged herself tightly. Han turned to look at her and

without hesitating, he picked her up from the sofa and walked out of the room, which stirred Leah

awake. As soon as her eyes opened, Leah was greeted with Han’s face, which startled her since she

did not expect him to show up.

“What are you doing? Put me down!” Leah slapped Han on the shoulder as she exclaimed angrily. She

was completely awake after suddenly getting scooped up from the sofa. She was bewildered on what

Han was up to.

Han ignored her and instead tightened his hold on her. He kicked open the door of a patient room next

to Anna’s and threw Leah onto the bed. Han had booked the entire floor of VIP rooms in order to give

Anna the best environment to recuperate. Leah hissed in pain and looked at Han in surprise.

Before Leah could say anything, Han scoffed, “What, are you planning to get pity points from me? Or

from Anna?” he then smiled mockingly. “Too bad, Anna can’t see it and I don’t have any feelings for you

either.”

Leah felt her heart squeezed as she fought back her tears. This was not the time for her to cry. If she

had cried, Han would despise her even more.

With a hushed voice, she replied, “No, I’m not.”

In return, Han had a stern expression, causing Leah to pause before continuing, “I’m really trying my

best to take care of Anna.”

Han nodded without changing his expression. Seeing Leah’s puffy eyes and haggard look, Han already

knew she was telling the truth. He turned away and tossed a document onto the bed.

“Sign this.”

“What’s this?” Leah looked down and asked.

“Read it yourself,” Han simply answered before returning back to Anna’s room.

Owen was not only fond of his daughter, but also of money. The best way to protect Leah was for

Owen to make a lot of money off of the situation.
