Chapter 359 Do You Still Like Me?
Two days later, Serena's friends were already working in the studio. Leah arrived at the airport and bought a ticket to Qustraebar.
She did not ask Serena to send her. She simply ate some snacks for breakfast while waiting for the plane.
"Sarah, you just treat yourself like this without me. If you don't have breakfast, Carlotta will feel sad."
The sudden appearance of Shawn shocked Leah into a cold sweat. She got up and looked at him in surprise. "Why are you here?"
Only Serena knew about her going abroad. Serena would not tell Shawn about it!
Shawn shook the briefcase in his hand and smiled helplessly. "I should be the one to ask you. I'm going to Qustraebar on a business trip today to discuss cooperation. I didn't expect to see you."
His eyes reflected Leah's complicated expression. In the end, she accepted the fact reluctantly.
After getting on the plane and seeing Shawn sitting right next to her, Leah was already unable to complain about such a bad fate.
From the beginning to the end, she only regarded it as a coincidence and never suspected anyone around her.
The air conditioner on the plane was low. Shawn asked the flight attendant to bring a blanket to cover Leah. "Sarah, be careful of catching a cold."
He looked at Leah's fair and peaceful face. His eyes were full of tenderness, and his smile was also intoxicating.
Not far away, Shawn's people had taken photos of the sweet interaction between Shawn and Leah.
Leah was not used to Shawn doing that. She silently pulled down the blanket and returned it to him. "No, thank you. I'm not cold."
Shawn felt disappointed by her polite tone, but he did not force her. "Okay."
He sat down again. His eyes calmly glanced at the people he arranged not far ahead. Seeing the other party make an okay gesture, Shawn smiled.
His people had photographed everything he needed.
The client Leah was looking for this time was the president of HJ Corporation, as HJ Corporation was one of the top five jewelry companies in the world.
As an aristocratic jewelry brand with 300 years of history that led the world 30 years ago, HJ Corporation's power had gradually declined due to internal conflicts between the family and the company.
HJ Corporation was now on the verge of withdrawing from the international market as many geniuses
increased in the jewelry industry.
As HJ Corporation had gradually declined, no designer was willing to work with them. It exacerbated their exit from the market.
In the afternoon of Qustraebar time, Leah and Shawn got off the plane together.
Qustraebar was close to the arctic zone, and winter came before autumn was over.
The thick snow on the ground brought biting coldness. Shawn held an umbrella to block most of the wind and snow for her. "Sarah, which hotel did you book? I'll take you there."
However, Leah wrapped her thin coat tightly and withdrew from his protection. She smiled politely. "It's nearby. I'm fine. You can go for your business."
After speaking, she walked to the other side without looking back.
When Shawn saw her figure disappearing in the wind and snow, his face quietly turned cold.
He took out his mobile phone and called his assistant. "How is it?"
"The posts, trending topics, and related photos are ready!" The assistant's voice sounded.
Shawn ordered expressionlessly, "Post them online."
He was still looking in the direction Leah left, and he seemed to get crazy.
Sarah, why do you always try to run away from me? As long as you nod, we can live together happily like before. No, it's not your fault. It's all the fault of that cunning Han who appears again!
He suddenly laughed. "It's fine. From now on, I'll never let Sarah get close to Han again..."
Soon, the hashtags about Shawn and Leah inundated Twitter.
"Mr. Ford and Mrs. Ford have a sweet outing."
"Mr. Ford's daily life dotes on his wife."
Many commenters were commenting about Shawn and Leah on the internet.
"I envy Mrs. Ford. She married into a wealthy family and has a good husband!"
"Wait, why does this Mrs. Ford look so familiar? She seems to be the designer on the trending search a while ago!"
"You just know about this? That designer is Mrs. Ford! Otherwise, how could the final public opinion quickly subside when people hacked her at that time?"
"Oh my god, Mr. Ford is so handsome! Why was she cheating on that short and ugly Donald?"
When Leah arrived at the hotel near the airport, she saw domestic trending searches explode again.
She sat on the chair and clicked on them, only to realize she was the protagonist. She was stunned.
"This..." Someone filmed all her interactions with Shawn today.
For no reason, she panicked. She did not know what Han would think when he saw the trending searches.
As soon as Leah thought of Han, his phone call came. The death-like ringtone of the mobile phone kept echoing in the room, and she was a little afraid to answer it.
She did not pick up the phone until it was about to hang up. "What's the matter?"
"Leah, you're amazing. Serena told me this morning that you were going abroad alone to discuss business. I didn't expect that I underestimated you. You came up with a clumsy reason to lie to me to be with Shawn."
His tone was unexpectedly calm, and he even chuckled. But hearing his pleasant laughter, Leah felt her scalp tingle for no reason, and cold sweat dripped from her palms.
"I met Shawn by chance." Although Han would not believe her, she still told the truth.
Han's expression suddenly darkened. "Did I warn you long ago to cut off these unclean relationships? It's a pity that you ignored my words."
Leah froze at his veiled threat. "I just happened to meet him."
The repeated explanation made Leah feel anger and grievance. "Why do you keep restricting my freedom? I promised to pay you back. You also took Carlotta away from me. What else do you want?"
Leah tried her best to live every day so that she would not think about those who were hurt and sacrificed their lives to protect her.
Her soft voice mixed with pain, and it hurt Han's heart. His narrow and deep eyes were slightly closed. "So, did I wrong you? Did you force yourself to be intimate with Shawn? I don't think so."
Leah was speechless and felt tired to explain. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
Her silence seemed tacit consent to Han. The anger and cold murderous aura he forcibly suppressed in his heart suddenly burst out.
Han said coldly, "I've changed my mind. Sure enough, you are not suitable to be Carlotta's mother."
Leah was stunned, then broke down and shouted, "Han! What on earth are you trying to do? I told you that I met Shawn by chance! I had no idea that someone deliberately photographed us like that! Carlotta is my daughter and will always be mine! Even if I die, I won't let you take her away!"
After yelling, as if someone had taken all the strength in her body, Leah knelt powerlessly on the ground. Tears fell helplessly from her eyes, and she smiled mockingly.
"Why do you care so much about the men around me? Do you still like me?"
