Chapter 260 Going Abroad
The next morning, a ray of sunlight shone on Leah’s face. She opened her eyes and sat up on the sofa.
She went to Han’s door, it was still locked.
“Han, are you hungry?”
Leah was not angry anymore. She shouted so the person on the other side could hear well, “I saw a
unit beside the moat. I’m going to take a look. Do you want to come with me?”
“No, I don’t want.” A voice was heard from inside the room.
Although Han rejected Leah, she was very happy because he answered her. It means that he was not
closing off himself. Leah believed that time will prove everything.
“I’ll send you the pictures then.”
Leah casually ate something for breakfast and left for Waterways Residence.
“Hello, are you still renting your unit? I’m right in front of the neighborhood, is it convenient to have a
look?”
The landlady responded quickly and brought Leah to the unit for rent. While she was opening the door,
she introduced her unit’s advantages.
“My house was renovated nicely. It had a great view too that will uplift people’s mood.”
The landlady was a middle-aged woman. Her son had gone abroad, but he bought 2 units for her in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLinkville. She could only live in one unit, that’s why she planned to rent out the other one.
Leah looked around and saw no contradictions with the pictures she saw online. The landlady brought
her to the balcony, “How is it? The moat looked great right?”
Leah looked at the place where the landlady pointed at. She saw the blue sky and all kinds of greens
that grew on the river bank. The clear flowing river water brings vitality to the scenery. It really did uplift
her mood. Han will like this place too.
She signed the rental contract immediately without thinking much.
Leah was satisfied while she held the key tightly in her hand. This place will be the home of Han and
her in the future. A small and cozy home.
In the Sanders’ mansion’s study, Ian sat on the chair looking very pale. His condition was becoming
more serious day by day. Chemotherapy couldn’t even help him lessen his pain. He knew he had not
many days left to live.
“Cough… cough…” A violent coughing sound came from him.
Mrs. Sanders entered the study. She saw Ian turn around hurriedly.
“How are you, Ian?”
Ian wiped off the blood on his hands and hid it behind him. He smiled slightly, “Mom, I’m fine. I had a
cold.”
“How can you cough so badly with a cold?”, Mrs. Sanders asked suspiciously. She noticed that Ian had
become more pale and skinny these days. Was he troubled by the company matters?
Mrs. Sanders sighed, at first she was the one who opposed him to being a doctor. She forced Ian to
inherit the company, but the company is gone now. As a mom, she hoped that her son could do the
things he loves now.
She pulled out a chair and sat in front of him. She told him calmly, “I had thought wrongly previously.
The company is gone now, you are free to do whatever you like.”
Ian tried hard to hide his pain, and made his voice sound as usual before he spoke, “Mom, I think that
it’s fine now.” He didn’t have much time to lose, he knew being a doctor again is impossible.
Mrs. Sanders knew she couldn’t persuade Ian, she left after she reminded him to take care of his
health.
Once she stepped out of the study, she met Sasha. She scoffed at her and went upstairs.
Sasha hurriedly entered the study, “Ian, how long are you going to hide it?”
“This is my business. What is your answer to the question that I asked you before?” Ian planned to hide
his condition from everyone. He didn’t want to see his mom’s tears, and also Leah being worried. It’s
better if he bears it alone.
“I won’t leave,” Sasha replied.
Ian doesn’t have many days left, she wanted to accompany him throughout this period.
“Ian, I want to accompany you. Please don’t let me leave, alright?” She went to him and squatted down,
eyes shining with tears, begging him. She believed that Ian wouldn’t reject her idea.
“Get ready to leave soon.” He stood up without waiting for Sasha’s response.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe insisted on sending Sasha abroad because of Leah. He was afraid that Sasha would retaliate
against Leah after his death.
In a private room, Ron was embracing a woman while holding a wine glass in his other hand.
“Why don’t you choose one since you’re here, none of my girls caught your eye?”
The smoke in the room made Ian feel uncomfortable. He shook his head rejecting Ron’s offer.
“I’m here to discuss something important with you.”
Ron gulped down a glass of wine, and said with a smile, “You wouldn’t find me if there’s nothing
important.”
The only person in the Sanders family that Ron did not hate was Ian.
“How could you drink by yourself?” the girl in Ron’s embrace reached out for the glass in his hands.
“I’ll feed you.”
Ron filled another glass with wine and fed it to the girl. Without waiting for her to speak, another glass
was waiting for her.
She realized something was wrong when she had drank four to five glasses, she pushed him away.
“Mr. Sanders, I can’t drink anymore.”
Ron’s smile faded, “Didn’t you want to drink just now?”
She was frightened by him. She trembled while she looked at the glass.
Ron had enough and told the women to leave, “Go out.”
“Tell me, why did you look for me?”
Ron crossed his legs while he looked at Ian.
