Chapter 438 Deliberately Making Things Difficult
It was raining cats and dogs.
In the winter, raindrops pelted Anna's body like icy bullets.
She simply gazed up at the noble and elegant Han in a daze, not feeling any pain.
What did he just say?
Did he just admit he loves Sarah?
She briefly appeared to have heard the funniest joke she had ever heard and burst out laughing maniacally in the pouring rain.
"Hahaha! You've finally said it, Ethan!"
As she was on the verge of losing her mind, Ben scowled and said, "Ms. Lancaster, if you persist in bugging the boss, we'll have no choice but to get a restraining order!"
Han's face was dark, and he returned to the car without glancing at Anna.
"At long last, Ethan, you've said it..." Almost as if a heavy weight had been lifted from Anna's mind, she had a crazed smile on her face.
She had a dazed look in her eyes as if she were trapped in some kind of memory.
Ben decided not to spare her any more kindness and immediately ordered a few men to drag Anna away.
Additionally, he gave the bodyguards instructions to keep watch outside the Victoria Precinct and to take her straight to the police station if they saw her returning to harass.
Owen's men came to Anna's aid after she was dragged out. They transferred her to their vehicle and sped off to the airport.
Owen was pained and angry when he saw his daughter, who was soaked wet from the rain and appeared to have lost her mind. He said, "Nana, I told you that man was not a good person long ago. Sarah is the only person he has ever loved, both then and now!"
"You never, ever listen to me. You were so oblivious that you didn't notice he was just using you!"
His hatred for Han reached a new high after reprimanding Anna.
That despicable man had dared to play with his daughter's feelings. He'd never let him go so easily, especially after he'd cost his country tens of billions of dollars! He was never going to forgive him!
Owen was already plotting a plan to kill Han in his head while Anna was still sitting in the chair, dazed but no longer crying.
"Don't worry, Nana. I will avenge you. I will eventually put an end to Han and Sarah!"
Owen's heart ached at the sight of her, and he spoke to comfort her once more.
Anna, who had been in a daze, suddenly reacted when she heard those two names. She opened the door agitatedly, wanting to get out of the car.
"Let go of me! I can't just leave like this! I'm going to kill that b*tch!"
Sarah!
Sarah is to blame for all of these screw-ups!
Everything would return to normal after her death, and Ethan would be by her side again.
She was confident that with her charm, he would fall in love with her in no time!
Even though Han had admitted that the person he loved was Leah, Anna didn't mind.
She was prepared to pay whatever price necessary as long as he would eventually belong to her. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Owen couldn't stand the thought of seeing her hurt. So, to prevent her from jumping out of the car and injuring herself, he had requested that the car be stopped. Then, he did nothing but watch as she fled in the pouring rain.
He retracted his dark, troubled gaze and asked the car to go on to the airport.
"Take care of yourself, Nana. Someday, you'll come to regret this..."
Owen did not continue to choose to stay here with Anna. The Kendrick Group had done severe
damage to his country, and he needed to take care of business as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if this went on, his whole nation would crumble.
Night had fallen.
Leah soothed Carlotta to sleep.
She felt tender love when she saw her clutching her hand tightly even though she was sleeping.
"It's nearly over..."
Soon, we'll be reunited, Carlotta.
Although she had already told Han that he could take Carlotta back to Victoria Precinct, he still allowed her to live here.
"What are you talking about, Sarah?"
Leah was slightly startled when Shawn's voice suddenly appeared from behind her, but she calmly gave him a practiced smile and said, "It's nothing. I've just finished telling Carlotta a story."
Shawn approached her side and noticed that Carlotta was already sound asleep, and a loving smile spread across his face. Then he added, "Speaking of which, Carlotta needs a full body checkup. I'm not sure if she'll be able to withstand the vaccine's effects."
The only people who could warm his heart were this pair of mother and daughter.
He could see a bright future with Leah at this moment in time.
Leah didn't want him to be too focused on Carlotta, so she grabbed his arm and led him downstairs. "We'll talk about it next time. Carlotta recently caught a cold, and her body is still recovering, so she shouldn't get vaccinated just yet."
"Let's go back first."
Shawn felt his heart warm as her tender hand lingered on his arm. "Okay," he said as he took her hand and interlocked his fingers with hers.
Even though his company had lost to Han's Kendrick Group, as long as she was by his side, he felt he had won the world.
So what if Han got it all? He had snagged the love of his beloved woman!
With that in mind, he was much happier.
"Sarah, let's set aside some time to hold a wedding in the next few days."
He intended to break Han's heart by making a big announcement about his wedding to Sarah.
"All right," Leah said, her brows furrowed subtly as she drew back the intense gaze from her eyes.
She had put on such a good show. Shawn was so engrossed in a dream that she had woven that he didn't notice her infidelity at all.
The rain had stopped later in the night, and the cold wind was biting.
When the wind blew through the bare branches, they creaked.
Leah jumped out of bed when she heard Shawn's room door open. With a solemn expression, she pressed quietly against the door.
It was exactly as she had predicted. He had other plans for the night.
"Yes, just do what you said. Stabilize the situation abroad, so the Ford family isn't pushed into a corner."
"All right, I'll give you the go-ahead to fully open the other labs..."
These two sentences, which she could only vaguely make out, greatly shocked her.
He still had laboratories elsewhere, as it turned out!
One had to assume a more personal identity to approach him and learn his darkest, most intimate secrets.
She had to get married to him.
That had been her initial thought. However, given the high-tech equipment Han had provided her, there might be another way out.
At this point, her phone vibrated with a text message.
Han's informant sent her a message confirming Shawn's departure from the mansion and that he had temporarily disabled the mansion's surveillance system for three minutes.
Now was her chance to act.
She quickly extracted a few tiny, intelligent miniature drone cameras from the dinner plate and set them flying around the mansion.
They were intelligently programmed to go to Shawn's bedroom, study room, and living room based on the predetermined route.
The footage captured by these miniature camera drones would be transmitted to Han.
They initially assumed that they would have difficulty locating the other laboratories because of Shawn's character.
Surprisingly, they were able to locate something on his desk.
On it, there were several books on wedding planning, along with a report on the experiment test site.
Han's lips curled coldly as he said, "Found it..."
