Chapter 458 Pet Names

Dusk was the time to feast. When Leah returned to the hospital, Han had already woken up. He visibly

cheered up at the sight of Leah.

"I thought you ran away."

Han approached Leah, bringing along his cologne. Leah put down the tote bag in her hands. She still

hadn't gotten used to pleasant exchanges like this.

"Why should I?" She took the food out of the tote bag and created some distance.

Han leaned in and grabbed Leah's chin. "If you don't run away now, you won't get another chance."

Han wasn't joking. Leah didn't know how to react.

"Eat first." Leah pried Han's hand away from her chin.

But Han wasn't interested in the food. He pulled Leah into his embrace and rested his head on her

shoulder.

"What's on your mind, Leah? You could just let me die if you hate me."

Han's strong, warm body shielded Leah from the cold winter.

"What's on your mind then, Han? Do you still love me even though I took everything from you? When

are you going to enact your vengeance?" said Leah half-jokingly.

It still bothered her. Han's love for her didn't feel real. Han, on the other hand, was fed up with this.

"How many times do I have to tell you that the vengeance was just a lie? Can't we get back together

now that everything is over?" Leah had a déjà vu. Han was imploring her again.

Her heart beat faster. "We are a couple now."

Han was stunned. "It wasn't to coax me into taking the antidote?"

Han swore that once he woke up, he would chain Leah to his side if it was necessary. That caged bird

could only sing for him.

Leah was peeved at Han's misgivings. "You think I'm a liar like you? I'm serious. Even if it's for Car..."

A pair of soft lips sealed hers. She could see every pore on Han's dashing face. How could a man have

such pristine skin?

Han only let go of Leah after a while. He instructed Leah to sit on his lap. "Was the trip to your office

fun?"

"No, it wasn't." Han's affection made Leah blush uncontrollably.

"But I heard they were so flustered because you put them in their place."

Leah still felt angry when she recalled the whole incident. "It doesn't make any sense. We are

cooperative. How can an investigation take months to conclude? I'm not dumb."

Who would have known that one day, Leah and Han could converse normally?

"So you're not dumb. Did you intentionally ignore my love then?" Han knew the right question to ask.

While Han certainly had sought validation from Leah before, since when did he crave this much

attention? He kept asking if Leah was in love with him. But Han didn't think too much of it. He had

always wanted to know Leah's true feelings.

"When can you be discharged?" Leah changed the topic again.

"I can leave once I have my full-body checkup tomorrow." Han shrugged. "Since we're dating, shouldn't

you give me a pet name?"

Oh, lord. Leah only called Han by his first name. Asking for a pet name made everything sound so...

official.

"I mean..." Leah struggled to find her words. "Han can do, right?"

Couples did address each other on a first-name basis. Wasn't this normal?

But not for Han. Downgraded from Hubby to Han, Han needed more now.

"Honey, I'll give you another chance to think this through." Han squeezed, almost suffocating Leah.

But calling Han Honey was so embarrassing. Leah would rather be swallowed by the ground than call

Han that.

"I... I... What about babe?" That took all the strength Leah had.

Han liked the sound of it and let it slide. He figured he already made huge progress if Leah could call

him babe.

"Boss, how are you feeling? The others and I are..." Ben barged in with a crowd. The first thing he saw

was Leah on Han's lap. And Han was looking at her with all the affection in the world combined.

Ben wished he could snap himself out of existence. He just ruined Han's moment. He was so going to

get beat up for this. Leah's face turned scarlet when people saw her in this compromising position. She

tried to wrestle out of Han's embrace but Han would never let go of her.

"Let go of me, Han. Everyone is watching," protested Leah near Han's ears.

"What did you call me," Han wore a playful grin on his face.

"Let go of me... babe." Leah wanted to die.

"Good girl," praised Han. He then turned to the crowd with a stoic face. "I'm fine. You may leave."

The crowd couldn't believe their eyes and their ears. They just witnessed how gentle their superior

was. And he even let Leah call him babe... Ben was the first to react. He immediately took the others

with him and fled.

"I'll text you everything, Boss. Let me know how to proceed."

Soon after, Ben told Han everything via text. He frowned and looked at the girl on his lap. "Your blood

sample is still missing. They must have a use for it."

"What for?" asked Leah incredulously. Were they going to perform some voodoo magic with it?

"I'll let you know if I have any news." Han decided not to tell Leah more in case she got worried. "That

ancient family will plot something again. Lay low for the moment."

"Do you have more intel on that family? Maybe they work for Shawn or Anna?" asked Leah.
