Chapter 259 Putting On An Act
Leah drew back her arm and hid it at her back. “It’s just a small injury. It’s troublesome to go to the
hospital.”
She didn’t even notice her wound if it was not for Serena. It’s nothing compared to Han’s condition.
Serena felt angry. As a designer, Leah should cherish her hands. There’s no difference between not
caring about her hands and giving up her dreams.
“Cindy, do you know what your hands mean? You want to follow Han’s footsteps?”
Leah felt ashamed at Serena’s question. She lowered her head and stood aside. Becoming the best
designer was indeed her dream. However, her only dream now is for Han to get out of his slump.
“What’s the big deal? Move forward step by step. Things will work out soon.” Serena comforted Leah.
She led her to the sofa and took out the first-aid kit. She cleaned Leah’s wound and put some anti-
inflammatory powder before using gauze to cover up the area.
“Isn’t that much better?” Serena looked satisfied.
“Thank you, Serena.”
Leah looked at her armed and determined to get better. She had to be strong. Han protected her in the
abandoned building. It’s her time to protect him now.

Serena ruffled Leah’s hair and told her, “Why are you being so polite to me? Go and take a look at Han.
He locked himself up in the room for the whole day. He did not eat or drink anything.”
Leah frowned and went to their room. She tried to turn the door knob but it was locked from the inside.
“Han, how are you? Serena said you haven’t eaten anything today. I’m worried about you. Can you let
me in?”
In the room, Han pretended that he had not heard anything. Leah stood outside waiting for him to open
the door. He still did not open the door after a long time.
Serena suddenly remembered the news about a young lad who was paralyzed because of a car
accident. He committed suicide by swallowing coins. Will a prideful person like Han couldn’t accept the
truth and did something the same?
She looked at Leah worriedly, “He wouldn’t do something silly like commit suicide right?”
Leah’s face paled, “No, no, no. He wouldn’t. Do you have the spare key to this room?”
“I’ll go and find it.” Serena immediately went to find the spare key.
Both of them opened the room using the key. They felt relieved seeing Han sitting beside the window.
Luckily he didn’t do it.
Before Leah could go any nearer, Han took a vase on the window still and threw it at her. He yelled
furiously, “Who asked the both of you to come in? Get out!”
Leah was trembling in fear. She bit her lower lip, reddened eyes staring at the broken vase.
“Han! What do you mean by doing this? What do you want?”
Serena’s anger built up quickly. She shielded Leah behind her and questioned Han.
“Do you know how worried Cindy was?”
Leah tugged her shirt, hinting to her to stop talking, “Serena, stop it.”
Leah did all these because she owed Han. She would willingly trade her legs with Han if it’s possible.
However, there are no “ifs” in this world.
Serena was a person with hot-tempered. In addition to Han’s attitude, it made her angry. She pushed
Leah away and continued, “Why? Why can’t you let him know it?”
Han’s expression changed slightly. Leah did all these because she thought she owed me. What she did
was not out of love, it was just to repay me.
Han smirked and mocked her, “Is that so? She had worked hard for it.”
Leah tried not to let the tears roll down her face after hearing what Han said.
“Han, rest well. If you’re hungry, just call me. I’m outside.” Leah was scared that Serena might agitated
Han. She pushed her out of the room regardless of whether she agreed or not.
As soon as the door was closed, Serena looked more upset than ever.

Leah was unhappy after listening to her words. She raised her voice, “Serena!”
Serena pursed her lips. She dare not say a thing anymore. She left shortly with a random excuse.
Leah was alone in the living room. She took out her phone and started searching for nearby houses for
rent. She thought maybe it was because Han couldn’t get used to Serena’s house that’s why he acted
like that.
Leah found a house that she wanted in a short time. It was a unit with three private rooms and a living
room near the moat. The landscape was nice too. It was enough for them even though it was not a
high-end neighborhood.
She saved the picture of the unit, got up, and went to the room. Her hand that was raised to knock on
the door fell. Han doesn’t want to see me now. Leah sat down on the sofa disappointedly.
Serena went to a bar after leaving her house. She planned to drink all night long.
Leah waited for Han quietly on the sofa. She’s afraid that he will ask for her. It was not for long before
she started to feel sleepy. She lay down and rest for a while.
At dawn, Han came out of the room using the wheelchair. He saw Leah curled up on the sofa. He didn’t
know if she was acting or she was cold. He closed the door again. As long as Leah was out of his sight,
he would not feel annoyed. The next moment, he opened the door and brought a blanket. He moved to
the sofa and covered Leah with the blanket.
