Begging For A Reconciliation

Chapter 383 Intimacy

Upon hearing Hendrik's words, Leah was stunned. Hendrik was right, but she would never admit it. Upon hearing Hendrik's words, Leah was stunned. Hendrik was right, but she would never admit it.

This awful feeling was only suitable for burying deeply in her heart, letting it rot and dissipate completely.

"No…" Leah's eyes dimmed, and then she smiled and met Hendrik's gaze. "What about you? Have you been taking care of me all this time because you love me?"

She changed the subject to Hendrik because she wanted to escape the fact that she was being questioned. But she heard an unexpected answer.

"Yes," Hendrik said with a calm voice.

Leah could not believe what she had heard. She was stunned and stared at him. "What did you say?"

It must have been a mistake. Hendrik, a person of his status, had been in contact with all sorts of women. There was no reason for him to like her, a divorced mother with a child.

It was hard for her to believe such a thing.

Hendrik leaned in closer to her, so close that their breaths seemed to mingle. He calmly said, "If I said I liked you, what would you do?"

Han could obey his innermost feelings without any constraints since he was Hendrik now.

"Stop kidding around," Leah said, not believing him. "You've been getting close to me to discover everything about me. There must be some other motive. Just tell me directly."

Leah looked at Hendrik solemnly. "It's okay, as long as it's not too extreme, we can still be friends in the future."

Hendrik returned to his seat by the bed, his deep voice tinged with a hint of amusement. "What counts as too extreme?"

"I don't know." Leah frowned. "You can tell me what you need, and I'll help as much as possible."

She owed him several lives of her own. She would let him use her as long as he did not want to harm Carlotta.

"Do you know what you're saying?" Hendrik stood up and looked down at her.

Leah was startled by his sudden cold voice, feeling a bit nervous. "I know, I will help you..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Hendrik pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly. "Will you really help me with anything?"

"What if I said I wanted to have sex with you?"

Leah was taken aback, quickly pushing him away with a gloomy look. "Please don't mess with me. If

you have something to say, just say it. I don't believe you approached me just because you like me and want to have sex with me."

She did not think she was so attractive that a divorced woman with a child would attract him.

Not far away, Carlotta had already finished her meal and had been watching them with an amused expression.

When she saw Hendrik hug Leah, she suddenly turned into a sad expression. "Oh no, oh no. If daddy doesn't come back soon, mommy is going to cheat on him!"

Carlotta's excitement caused her to speak with a relatively loud voice. Hearing Carlotta's words, Leah's face darkened slightly, and she began to talk seriously with Hendrik. "Mr. Hendrik, just tell me what you want. It's okay."

It was the first time she had called him like this.

Han's gaze suddenly turned cold. "Don't call me that."

Anyone could call him like that, but not her.

He did not want his Hendrik identity or to be abandoned and kept away by her after expressing his feelings.

"There's no reason. I'm just very interested in you. To put it bluntly, I want you to help me manage the White Group temporarily. I need to deal with Shawn and don't have time."

Although it was not the reason Leah had imagined, she finally relaxed a bit.

"Okay," she agreed without hesitation.

The White Group originally belonged to her parents, and she missed being there.

After finally finishing their conversation, Carlotta rushed forward and hugged Hendrik's leg, "Uncle, you're also going to be my third dad!"

"You have a lot of dads," Han glanced coldly at Leah on the bed.

Leah suddenly felt pressure and quickly pulled Carlotta away, "Carlotta, he's not your daddy. Don't overthink."

Carlotta was too open-minded. Even the third dad was coming out now.

If Han knew about her and Hendrik, he would probably go crazy again and say she did nothing but seduce men.

She was not good at dealing with his anger.

"Well, I got to go. I'm too busy these days. I'll pick you up in eight days."

As Hendrik left, Leah had a sigh of relief and pinched the soft face of Carlotta, "Carlotta, don't say such things before Uncle Hendrik again."

"Why?" She blinked her eyes with confusion.

Leah paused, then said, "Uncle Hendrik has a bad temper. He will lock up the kid who annoyed him in the dark room."

Carlotta was speechless. "Mommy, I'm not a three-year-old. Your trick doesn't work anymore. I wouldn't believe such an obvious lie!"

Leah paused and said, "Anyway, stop calling him daddy."

Carlotta did not know the seriousness yet.

Men with power at the top of the pyramid were hazardous.

It was Han and Shawn.

Accompanying a ruler was like accompanying a tiger.

Until Carlotta promised she would not say that, Leah asked Ben to take her back to Han's mansion in Victoria Precinct.

That evening, Serena came to see her after work from the studio.

As soon as she entered the door, she put a pile of documents on Leah's bed: "Here, these are the documents that Mr. Hendrik asked me to give you."

After reading them, Leah found that they were documents of the White Group's acting CEO and some projects handover. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Thank you." She was surprised by Hendrik's efficiency, and she realized that she would be the acting CEO of the White Group soon.

After she signed the papers one by one, Serena rearranged them and put them aside.

Then, she sat seriously by Leah's bed and questioned, "I'll return the document to the White Group later. Now tell me what happened between you and Hendrik."

Leah paused with confusion. "He asked me to help manage the White Group because he'll deal with Shawn during this time and nothing else."

He was teasing Leah when he said he liked her, so it was unnecessary to tell Serena since it was not a big deal.

Serena did not believe it at all and was more earnest to persuade, 'Sarah, you can't be single all your life. When you meet a good man, you should consider him. Don't be stubborn about Han."

She had known her for so long that she loved Han the most.

Before Leah said anything, she continued, "Han is about to marry Anna. It is rumored that when he left, he was personally planning the wedding with Anna. Hendrik's power is above Han. Neither Anna nor Han dares not to bully you anymore when you are with him."

Leah was puzzled, and her heart was in terrible pain.

With tears in her eyes, she looked at Serena and was stupefied. "He's just planning his wedding with Anna during this time?"
