Chapter 203

Han’s eyes widened in surprise. The skulking figure was none other than Shawn Ford!

He was not personally acquainted with Shawn, but upon returning to Linkville, he had made a point to

investigate the man’s background. What he had discovered had given him quite a shock.

"What are you doing here?" Han’s gaze grew even chillier as he eyed Shawn with evident disdain.

The sound of Han’s familiar voice made Shawn look up immediately. Upon encountering the other’s

severe, judgmental gaze, he involuntarily shrank back slightly. In a tiny voice, he stammered. "I.. .I’m h-

here to see Sarah!"

Han's frown deepened. A deep sense of loathing and disgust for the other man rose up within him.

"If I recall, she already sent you home, didn't she?"

"But I want to be with her! I don't want to go home!" Shawn persisted stubbornly.

Han's expression grew even darker when Shawn declared he wanted to be with Sarah. In fact, his

entire aspect was so forbidding that Shawn did not dare open his mouth.

After a moment. Han finally broke the oppressive silence. "I’ll send you home." Currently, Shawn wras

only 7 years old mentally. Even if he looked like a perfectly capable adult, there was no telling what sort

of dangers he might encounter, walking around alone at night. While Han honestly washed he could

leave the other to sink or swim, he could not shake off the fact that they had some sort of a connection.

It gave him a headache.

However, Shawn shoved him aside and snapped petulantly, "I won’t go home! I want to see Sarah!"

Taking advantage of Han having let down liis guard briefly, he ran towrard the White residence, yelling.

"Sarah! Sarah! I’m here to see you!"

Han looked extremely displeased. He did not want Shawn and Sarah to get too close. Striding forward,

he grabbed hold of Shawn and dragged him back to the car. intending to bundle him in and send him

home.

However, Shawn proved to be surprisingly strong. When he began struggling and thrashing in earnest,

even Han found it difficult to hang onto him.

"What the hell are you two doing?" A freezing voice snapped from behind them.

Both men froze on the spot.

Leah was in pajamas, standing just inside the gate of the White residence and staring expressionlessly

at the two of them. Han and Shawn were locked together in an extremely awrkward pose. From wfrere

she was, it looked as if they were two primary school students fighting. She pursed her lips slightly and

repeated. "What the hell are you two doing?"

Han finally came back to his senses. However, right at that moment, he felt a sudden sharp pain in his

hand. Giving a startled hiss, he stared in astonishment at Shawn, wdio had sunk his teeth into his

finger like a vicious dog. As Han loosened his grip, Shawn dashed over to Leah, wailing like a child

telling tales to an adult. "Sarah! Let me in quick, that bad man is trying to bully me!"

Han’s browr creased slightly; so Shawm regarded Sarah as his savior and himself as the bad man?

Leah did not even know' howr to react w'hen she saw' Shawm’s pleading face. Emotionlessly. she

asked. "Why are you here again?"

"I missed you." Shawm faltered.

Leah’s expression was frosty as she ordered. "It’s already late. Go home now."

Unexpectedly. Shawm suddenly burst into tears. Sobbing like a child, he wailed, "No! I don’t want to go

home! I just want to be with you, Sarah, I don’t wrant to go home!"

Leah's agitation made her raise her voice. "Shawm Ford, stop making an unreasonable fuss! You may

wrant to be with me, but I have no desire to be with you!"

This was the first time she had ever spoken so angrily to Shawm. His face took on a hurt look as he

pleaded. "Sarah, don’t you wrant me anymore?"

The wdiole situation was giving Leah a headache. However, she just w’anted to be rid of the problem

that was Shawm once and for all, so she steeled herself and replied coldly, "I’ve never w’anted you,

ever."

Shawm’s entire expression crumbled as if something inside him had abruptly shattered. He ground liis

teeth together and glared at Han. In a quivering voice, he accused, "I knew it! Everyone looks up to

him. No one likes me. I hate all of you!" With that, he turned and dashed toward the street as fast as liis

legs could cany him. In an instant, he had vanished.

Han frowmed and was about to chase after Shawm when he heard Leah from behind him. "Stay where

you are, Han Howard." Despite the irritation liis expression displayed, he did actually come to a halt.

Standing at the gate, he eyed Leah and asked. "Well? What is it?"

Leah's gaze went to Han's finger where Shawm had bitten him. "You're bleeding. I'll go fetch you a

plaster." She intended to hand him Regina's letters as well.

However, Han turned awray with a smirk. "So this is part of your seduction scheme too?"

Leah was taken aback. "Excuse me?"

Han shot her a derisive smile, liis tone full of mockery. "You seduce men tliis way, I see."

Leah looked thunderstruck.

"Did you seduce Shawm like tliis as well?" Han closed in on her menacingly. "Once you've managed to

wrap a man around your little finger, you just discard them once you've sucked them diy, all for the sake

of money. That's your little game, is it?"

Leah could hardly believe her ears. "Are you mad? Who the hell has been telling you these tilings?"

Of course, Han was not about to reveal liis source of information. Instead, he eyed Leah coldly. "Tliis is

merely what I've observed. You're utterly despicable. Stay as far awray from me as you can." With that,

he got into the car and drove off.

The October night air was very chilly, and Leah was clad only in a set of thin cotton pajamas. Standing

at the gate, watching Han's departure, she felt chilled to the bone. It had been a long time since Han

had said such tilings to her. True, he had spoken even more hurtful w’ords in the past, but.. .for

whatever reason, she could not help feeling cut to the quick.

In the meantime, Shawm kept on running, stumbling along the wray. However, he couldn't outrun Han's

car. By the time he reached the comer of the street, Han had already caught up with him.

Han got down from the car and grabbed hold of Shawm's wrist. "Get in. I'll take you home."

Shawm kept on struggling. "No! I won't go back!"

As the two men tussled, Shawm staggered, slipped, and fell backward. His head hit the pavement and

began bleeding profusely. Han frowmed at tliis but said nothing. Instead, he bodily hauled Shawm into

the car and took him straight to the hospital. Once the other had been admitted, he immediately called

the Ford family's butler, Mr. Carling, who showed up in record time.

"Mr. Howard," Mr. Carling greeted Han very respectfully the minute he saw him.

Han merely nodded: he was about to reply wlien liis phone suddenly rang. He answered the call, then

abruptly turned to the butler. "My apologies, but something's come up, and I need to go. I'll leave

Shawm to you. then."
