Chapter 254 Dead Legs
Leah’s heart sank. She didn’t know what to do looking at Han through the room’s window. After some
thought, she decided not to tell him about his condition.
“Let’s wait for now. I will tell him later.”
The doctor sighed and left.
In the room, Han struggled to get up but he can’t feel his legs. He uncovered the blanket and felt
relieved because his legs are still intact. He remembered his Achilles tendon was sliced by Shawn
before he went unconscious.
Han pinched his thigh but he did not feel any pain. His legs were dead.
“Why did you get up?” The door opened and Leah came in. She helped him sit up properly.
“I’m thirsty,” Han said.
“I’ll get water for you. You lie down.” Leah covered Han with the blanket before turning around to get
him water.
Han frowned while he sipped the water.
No one spoke for a while. Leah broke the silence by asking, “Why did you save me?”
If Han didn’t come to save her, she will only be disappointed because it’s not the first time he ignored
her. Now, he lost everything because of her. He even lost his legs. Leah felt a sharp pain in her chest
when she thought of it.
She stared at Han to find answers.
Leah asked again, “Didn’t you regret it?”
“I don’t,” Han spoke softly without hesitation.
Leah was shocked by his reply. She walked towards the window and her tears fell once her back faced
Han.
Han wanted to hug her when he saw her wiping her tears.
“It was me who harmed you indirectly. Shawn wanted to hurt me. If it was not me, you wouldn’t have
been kidnapped.”
Leah wiped her tears again and smile forcefully. She knew that he said this because he didn’t want her
to feel bad.
“No matter what you said. I’m grateful to you. Thanks.”
Before Han could say anything else, his phone rang and he answered the call.

Han replied, “Let him do whatever he wants.”
“But… Mr. Howard…”

“I will think of some ways.”
Leah knew that she was the one who caused Han to lose everything. She will also think of something
to let Han regain everything he once own again.
The anesthesia was effective and Han slowly closed his eyes. Leah closed the room door and left the
hospital.
As long as the White Group is still around, Han still has the chance to turn over.
The cab stopped at the White Group’s office. Leah looked up at the sign and walked in with a
complicated mood.
Since the engagement party, Leah had not seen Ian again. Both of them had no reason to meet up.
Leah took a deep breath and walked towards the CEO’s office. When she opened the door, new faces
were there instead of the ones she knew.
“Hello, is Mr. Sanders around?”
“Who is that?”
Leah closed the office’s door with disappointment
At the lobby of the White Group, Leah took out her phone and called Ian.
What happened during the time she got kidnapped?
The phone was answered quickly. Without waiting for Leah to speak, an angry voice was heard.
“You still have the nerve to call Ian?”
“Haven’t you brought him enough harm yet?”
“Ian will not answer any of your call anymore, so don’t call again.”
Sasha cut off the call after she vented her anger.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmquickly.
The day Ian lost the White Group, he fell sick. Sasha blamed Leah for all of this. If not for her, so many
things would not happen.
“I…” Leah stared at her dim phone screen. She didn’t even have the chance to explain.
The sky was getting darker, Leah went back to the mansion and made dinner for Han.
In the hospital, Han was already awake for a long time. He stared blankly after he sat up.
“I made some soup for you,” Leah said while she poured out the contents in the thermos for Han.
Han didn’t reach out to get the bowl. “My legs can’t feel anything. Is it paralyzed?” Will legs like this
have any use?
“The doctor said they will be healed in a short time,” Leah replied diffidently. She couldn’t bear to tell
Han the truth.
“Is it?” Han scoffed. “Do you believe what you just said? Or is it to just comfort me?”
Leah hung her head with her lips pursed.
Ian was not in the White Group. The last chance she had to help Han was gone.
“I’m sorry.” Leah’s voice filled with guilt.
“Go out. Leave me alone.”
Han closed his eyes.
Tears were starting to form in Leah’s eyes. She didn’t know how to comfort Han. It would be better if
she left then.
She went down to the park to get some air.
“Ian, we can’t fight against them. Don’t care about the company anymore after you go back this time
around.” A familiar voice was heard.
She turned around and saw Ian.
Why is Ian at the hospital? Why did he looked so pale?
Leah got up and jogged towards him.
“Ian, were you sick?”
Ian had never thought that he would meet Leah in the hospital. He heard that she had got out of
trouble. He wanted to see her but he did not have the courage.
Ian nodded. “Mm,” he answered with a hint of estrangement.
Leah told him about the happenings today, she was filled with questions.
“I went to your office today, but I don’t recognize those people. What happened?”
