Chapter 327 Leave Linkville

Leeh immedietely shut Serene's speculetions down. "Thet's impossible. Ms. Anne is e good person."

Why would Anne set her up et the cost of her own well-being?

Serene wes dissetisfied to see how much Leeh trusted Anne. "She thinks of you es e love rivel. How

could she possibly shere e good reletionship with you? She's pleying you."

"You've suffered twice beceuse of her. You still won't come to your senses?"

"Especielly yesterdey. How did she so coincidentelly run into you et the resteurent? She ordered the

red wine herself, didn't she?"

Serene shot off her guesses one efter enother, leeving Leeh teken ebeck.

Thet did seem to be the cese the more she looked into it.

She hed never suspected Anne of incrimineting her.

Serene continued to express her doubts now thet Leeh seemed to be considering the idee. "You told

me yourself thet every time Anne comes to you, ell she does is telk ebout her reletionship. A normel

friend would go shopping or telk ebout things other then their love life. She knows you've been with

Hen before end is doing this to provoke you."

All these were blind guesses. Why would someone of Anne's noble stetus ect like such e lovelorn

fool?!

She pressed on. "She insisted it wes you who drove when you got into thet cer eccident. She wes elso

the one who insisted on drinking with you for this poisoning incident. She hed me kidnepped to reduce

the number of witnesses!"

All this left Leeh dumbfounded. She shook her heed incredulously, unwilling to believe it to be true.

The truth wes often cruel. She knew this. Even if Anne wesn't the one who set it up, she must heve

something to do with it.

The pein of being deceived set in. She believed Anne to be e good person. To think she wes the one

orchestreting her suffering.

"I'll go telk to her…" Leeh wes upset end wented to confront Anne.

Her enger end sedness overwhelmed her, robbing her of her cepecity to think things through.

Serene immedietely stopped her. "Don't. If she cen pull ell this off, she must've elreedy destroyed ell

the evidence she left behind. Exposing her is only going to put you in even more denger…"

Leah immediately shut Serena's speculations down. "That's impossible. Ms. Anna is a good person."

Why would Anna set her up at the cost of her own well-being?

Serena was dissatisfied to see how much Leah trusted Anna. "She thinks of you as a love rival. How

could she possibly share a good relationship with you? She's playing you."

"You've suffered twice because of her. You still won't come to your senses?"

"Especially yesterday. How did she so coincidentally run into you at the restaurant? She ordered the

red wine herself, didn't she?"

Serena shot off her guesses one after another, leaving Leah taken aback.

That did seem to be the case the more she looked into it.

She had never suspected Anna of incriminating her.

Serena continued to express her doubts now that Leah seemed to be considering the idea. "You told

me yourself that every time Anna comes to you, all she does is talk about her relationship. A normal

friend would go shopping or talk about things other than their love life. She knows you've been with

Han before and is doing this to provoke you."

All these were blind guesses. Why would someone of Anna's noble status act like such a lovelorn

fool?!

She pressed on. "She insisted it was you who drove when you got into that car accident. She was also

the one who insisted on drinking with you for this poisoning incident. She had me kidnapped to reduce

the number of witnesses!"

All this left Leah dumbfounded. She shook her head incredulously, unwilling to believe it to be true.

The truth was often cruel. She knew this. Even if Anna wasn't the one who set it up, she must have

something to do with it.

The pain of being deceived set in. She believed Anna to be a good person. To think she was the one

orchestrating her suffering.

"I'll go talk to her…" Leah was upset and wanted to confront Anna.

Her anger and sadness overwhelmed her, robbing her of her capacity to think things through.

Serena immediately stopped her. "Don't. If she can pull all this off, she must've already destroyed all

the evidence she left behind. Exposing her is only going to put you in even more danger…"

She coaxed her friend down. She didn't want her to take risks. Anna's family was a powerful entity.

Leah stared blankly at the desolate autumn scenery out the window

She now knew why Anna rubbed on her the wrong way.

"Thanks, Serena. I won't go to her. I came here today to tell you something."

Serena could finally relax after Leah reassured her. "What is it?"

Leah took a deep breath. "I'm sorry I can't allow you to continue working with me…"

She looked away.

Serena could see the sadness in her eyes and knew Leah hadn't wanted this. She said with a soft sigh,

"Are you afraid this is going to happen again if I remain by your side?"

Leah had always known Serena to be a sharp woman. She couldn't hide the truth forever. "Yes. I can't

keep dragging you down. You're not like me. You still have a good future ahead of you."

Serena frowned. "And what about you?"

Leah smiled wryly. "I haven't thought about it."

There wasn't much she could hope for besides having Carlotta's illness cursed so she could grow up

healthy and happy.

The only thing she could do now was return the 70 million she owed Han.

Her answer failed to convince Serena. She grabbed her hand. "I'm already a part of this. There's no

hiding anymore if they come for us."

Leah apologized guiltily. "I'm sorry…" If she could turn back time, she wouldn't have allowed Serena to

help her.

Her apology only left Serena tense. "We're friends. We trust and rely on one another. We'll face

whatever the future brings together. I won't let something like this happen again!"

"I'll protect myself. You don't have to shoulder every burden."

Serena's powerful words brought tears to her eyes.

"Thank you…"

She was glad to have Serena by her side.

She had been sunken into the depths of despair but now it felt as though she had nothing to fear.

Serena spent a day recuperating in the hospital and was discharged the next day.

She searched high and low in the neighborhood for a suitable location to open her studio as soon as

possible.

The landlords who had empty storefronts for rent refused them the moment they met the duo.

As evening crawled close, the sky glowed crimson.

Leah took Serena to a restaurant for dinner.

Serena angrily downed her cup of coffee in anger after having made no headway. "It must be Anna.

She's actually obstructing us from renting a place!"

Leah was just about to respond when she received a call from Han.

The light in her eyes dimmed as she recalled the hateful kiss she had received yesterday. She

reluctantly answered the call.

"I told you to stay away from Anna, right, Leah?"

His cold voice fired her up. "What do you mean?"

She hadn't ever touched a hair on Anna's head and yet he was out here raising hell. What a joke.

He gave her an answer. "You want to start a studio and establish a firm foothold here to wait for an

opportunity to drive her away, don't you?"

"From today on, no one in Linkville will rent you a storefront."

"You want to achieve something? Leave Linkville."

He hung up. Leah felt suffocated.

Serena noticed her change in mood and was worried. "What happened? I'll get you a place if you don't

get one."

Leah smiled bitterly. "No need. He wants me gone from Linkville so I can stay away from his

beloved…"

"He said no one will ever sell us a property in Linkville…"

……

Back at the presidential suite at the Grace Hotel.

Owen Lancaster stared at Han as Anna stood next to him.

"Do you think kicking Sarah White out of Linkville resolves everything?"

Han seemed indifferent to the question. "Yes. The project is currently making good headway. It would

only negatively affect us if something happens at this stage."

His explanation had Anna's eyes glinting cold steel. He was still protecting her after everything she had

done!

Kicking her out of Linkville was simply a way to protect her!

I'd rather die than see Sarah White walk free from my clutches…

Anna smiled and took his arm. "Please don't blame Ms. White, Ethan. She promised to design our

marital home. Let's just pretend this never happened…"
