Chapter 470 Mr. Hendrik’s Sweetheart

Leah held her phone as she gazed at the cold wind howling outside. She decided to call Han. She said,

"Han, as you had predicted, Ravensong's killer visited the hospital today. Serena almost hurt…"

The day Ben woke up was initially intended to be a very happy occasion.

However, Han warned Leah in the wee hours of the morning that Ravensong might strike once more.

Leah hurried to the hospital and brought some bodyguards with her.

Han's deep, seductive voice finally came through the phone after a brief period of silence. He urged,

"Stay in the hospital and don't wander around. Leave Ravensong's business to me."

Leah asked, "What can I do to help you?"

Leah pursed her lips. She was unwilling to be treated as a perfectly protected canary. She wanted to

lend some support and strength to him by carrying some of his burdens. Han had to oversee Leah's

affairs as well as the enormous Kendrick Group. The mere thought of it made Leah feel worn out.

Han could tell Leah was worried. He chuckled softly and said, "The biggest help you can give us is to

keep us safe."

"Then, I want you to look after yourself." Leah knew that Han was unwavering in his stance on this

matter, and she graciously accepted it.

Han spoke with an even softer voice and said, "Okay, I've solved the problem for your design

competition. Remember to watch the news later."

Leah went to Ben's ward with a smile on her face after hanging up the phone.

"Ms. Coleman, you're pressing on my wound. It hurts…"

Leah heard Ben panting ambiguously as she was about to open the door. Standing at the door, Leah

felt awkward all of a sudden, unsure if she should go into the ward.

Serena insisted over and over that she did not want to be with Ben. When they were alone together,

though, that woman was engaging in a flirtatious game with Ben. Leah made the decision to intervene

so that Ben would be safe because his wounds were still not fully healed and it was improper for him to

participate in this game.

She walked all the way to Ben's bed after opening the door while blushing.

Leah said, "Serena, hold back for the time being. Ben's injuries need to heal before you start playing

these games with him."

Serena had been lying on Ben's chest at first. She hurriedly stood up, moved to the side, and adjusted

her clothing as soon as Leah entered the room. She clarified, "You misunderstood, Sarah! I merely

slipped!"

Ben was concerned that Serena's reputation would be tarnished in front of her close friend. He

hurriedly explained, "Mrs. Howard, it’s nothing like that. Ms. Coleman was trying to cover me with a

blanket. I don't want you to get the wrong idea; nothing is going on between us."

"Who on earth is trying to wrap a blanket around you!" Serena interrupted Ben while blushing.

Then Serena flung open the window to let in the chilly air. The warm room quickly became chilly. With

the bitter cold, Serena's mood gradually improved.

Serena started talking to Leah about business while wearing a serious expression. She said, "Sarah, I

just saw a notification saying that our company's rating and some government support have been

revoked. This issue has caused quite an uproar in the company group chat."

"Our employees are dissatisfied. I'm going to fire anyone causing trouble. Is that acceptable? Besides,

everyone knows that your championship was stolen by Fergie. Otherwise, the championship would

have been yours!"

Serena became enraged when she brought up these issues.

Leah was indifferent compared to Serena's agitation. She patted Serena's shoulder to comfort her and

said, "It's ok. This issue has been resolved by Han."

Serena's face distorted as she noticed how Leah addressed Han. She mocked Leah, "Oh, you’re

talking with Han just now? When did the two of you start to get along so well? Why don't you tell me

what transpired between you two?"

Even if Leah was willing to tell her, she had no idea what had happened. Simple, everyday interactions

between them led to the two of them inevitably becoming close.

"Well…"

"Next, we'll broadcast international news. The shooting competition organizer, 02 Conglomerate, was

involved in bribery. The organization is now under investigation by the government. Its stock prices

have plummeted!"

The news on the TV interrupted Leah as she was starting to speak.

She was a little taken aback as she watched the news, thinking that this must be what Han had

mentioned to her when he told her he had solved the problem and recommended she watch the news.

Nobody anticipated that the organizer would face more than just an investigation, though.

#Kendrick Group Acquires 02 Conglomerate# Explosive!

When this trending topic entered the public's view, the design competition, which had already

concluded, once again attracted an astonishing amount of attention.

"I'm cracking up so hard! How dare these people steal Sarah White's championship? It’s fine if her

skills weren't up to par, but her scores were way above Fergie's!"

"As expected, a foreign conglomerate is ignorant of Ms. White's status as Mr. Hendrik's sweetheart.

They dared to subject his beloved wife to this wrongdoing. Don't you think 02 Conglomerate deserves

to be acquired?"

"Let me guess, Mr. Hendrik shouldn’t have done this for the sake of a certain Ms. Charming, right?

Pepe the frog. JPG"

Leah experienced a strong heat throughout her body after reading internet users' jokes that Hendrik

liked her. These online users were huge gossipers.

When Serena noticed Leah's shy and embarrassed expression, she was standing next to her.

However, Serena continued to enjoy herself and continued to read the comments.

"Internet user A said, "Urgh! How dare you put my darling through pain? I'll obliterate your business."

Here is another one, "Yes, the trophy is yours, but your conglomerate is now ours.""

Ben could not help but shake his head as he heard Serena read these embarrassing remarks. He said,

"Mrs. Howard, I hope you won't mind."

"It's fine."

On the contrary, Leah's mood had calmed down. She glanced at Serena and said, "Serena, please

stop making fun of me. What would you do if Ben did something like this for you someday?"

Serena's smile abruptly became frozen as she laughed. She continued to frown at Leah after glaring

angrily at Ben. "Forget I said anything," she exclaimed.

Leah started talking about important topics with them once she noticed Serena had calmed down.

"Today, people from Ravensong are lurking outside the hospital. The windows must remain shut.

They'll use silver needles that have been laced with poison against us. Any medication administered by

unfamiliar medical personnel must be taken with caution."

Ben instantly became serious, "Understood, Mrs. Howard!"

Serena was furious, she yelled, "It's that damn organization again! Why are they targeting us? They

wouldn’t do that because we started Dream Designs, right? Other than Anna and Shawn, I don't

remember us offending anyone else!"

Leah was reminded of this by Serena's words. Her beautiful pupils suddenly shrank, and she

exclaimed, "Anna!"
