Begging For A Reconciliation

Serena reasoned carefully that whoever was after Sarah would undoubtedly find her as well.

If she went out looking for Sarah defenseless, she would have squandered her chances of survival.

The most important thing she needed to do now protected herself to save Sarah.

As a result, Serena took a cab to the police station.

She had to hide out in the police station for a while, whether they came after her or not.

Her intuition was right. As soon as she stepped into the cab, several nurses broke into her room under

the guise of making the rounds.

The fake nurses' faces darkened as they looked at the empty beds, "She ran away? Turn on the

surveillance and quickly bring her back to the higher-ups! Otherwise, it's not going to end well for us."

…

As soon as Shawn finished the meeting, his assistant stopped him.

"Boss, something doesn't seem right with Ms. White. Our bodyguards on the sly discovered that she

had entered a restaurant and had not yet exited." His assistant informed him.

"Do you need to ask me about this?" "Do bodyguards serve no purpose?" Shawn was in bellicose form.

The strong coercion caused the assistant to break out in a cold sweat, "Forgive me, boss. It's just that

the circumstances are unique right now."

"I have considered that Mr.Ford has the plan to cooperate with Mr. Hendrik, but he appears to be

involved with Ms. White. I’m afraid that saving Ms. White will arouse his hostility." His assistant worried.

"Right. The whole Linkville knows she's Ms. Ford, there's no reason why Hendrik shouldn't know,"

Shawn frowned.

Finally, he ordered the bodyguards to rescue Leah.

When his bodyguards arrived, Leah had already been rescued.

"Mr. Ford, all of the surveillance cameras in the area were disrupted and unable to function normally, so

we didn't get any footage of who took Ms. White away." The bodyguards revealed.

“Bang!” This wasn't what Shawn wanted to hear, and he slammed down all the documents on the table.

"Is there any news about Han?" His eyes were cold.

He couldn't think of anyone else with such exceptional ability, except for Han Howard.

"Nothing new, saying he was on a business trip in another city." His assistant responded politely.

"According to our findings, Mr. Hendrik could be the one behind this incident. He has, after all, arrived

in Linkville..."

"Hendrik?" Shawn's expression changed.

Seemed like the rumor was true about Hendrik falling for Sarah.

"Darn it!" he grumbled.

He planned to cooperate with either Hendrik or Han and achieved his goal of controlling one side and

then annexing both sides.

He hadn't expected these two people to fall in love with Sarah.

When Jackson saw Shawn's unkind expression at the office, he frowned. “Enough! A mere woman is

just a pawn to expand your business empire, take it easy."

"I have some more important news for you..." Jackson uttered.

Shawn shifted his emotions. "What's the matter?" he asked, his face glum.

Jackson took the seat across from him, “I have cultivated a spy over the years, and usually collect

information for me.” He said coldly.

“However, he told me today that Hendrik is most likely Han Howard.”

Shawn’s eyes shrank in surprise, “What did you say!?”

“Han Howard is Hendrik?”

No, this was impossible.

He was agitated, and a chill crept up from behind him.

If they were the same person, he was in grave danger.

Jackson was hesitant and said, "I'm not certain about this. My informant just told me that he once saw

Han and Hendrik enter and exit an ancient castle in Qustraebar."

"Others knew this old castle was under Hendrik's name but hadn't seen both of them going in and out

at the same time. Han will vanish every time Hendrik appears..."

Shawn felt better, but his brow remained furrowed. "I doubt it's the same person. After all, Han has

been exiled abroad for the last few years, and achieving such a great achievement as Hendrik in such

a short time is impossible."

"However, the likelihood of their cooperation is high." Jackson explained further.

"It appears that we will be unable to persuade any of them to cooperate." Jackson gave a nod.

"We need to switch strategic partners!" Shawn agreed.

…

Leah passed out after a half-hour of being frozen in the freezer.

When she awoke, she was once again in a dimly lit room. She groped her way out of bed, looking for

the light switch in the room.

She sat exhausted on the floor after failing to locate the switch after much groping.

She had been removed from the cold storage, but it was not certain that she had been rescued.

She must confirm the current situation.

“Thud!” The lights in the room unexpectedly turned on just as she was thinking.

A thin figure appeared at the door.

The man was dressed in a black windbreaker and a stunningly detailed retro black iron mask. He just

stood there, and no one could take their gaze away from him.

" Who are you?" Leah stood up in a daze. She was exhausted.

She couldn't stop coughing. It was probably suffering from the cold.

The man took a step forward and approached her slowly, accompanied by a strong sense of

oppression reminiscent of hell.

"You can't even take good care of yourself," he said condescendingly as he stood still in front of Leah.

The familiar tone startled Leah; she took a few steps back.

"Who are you? Why did you lock me up here?" She coughed and repeatedly asked.

“Hendrik.” The man sneered softly.
