“Who the hell are you? Why do you show me this?” Sasha could not help but tremble. Her
face turned pale. She tried her best to restrain herself from looking at Charlie on TV.
The man sniggered and walked up to her. He raised her chin with his bony hand and
forced her to watch the TV.
With a painful look on her face, Sasha shook her head and struggled desperately.
“Look at the TV. Why don’t you look at it? You are an accomplice and let him kill your
adoptive father. Aren’t you afraid he will betray you? Isn’t that the reason you want him to
die?” The man smiled gently, but his words were as vicious as a snake.
Tears streamed down Sasha’s face. Her lips quivered, and she could not help but plead, “I
don’t know what you are talking about. Please let me go. I know nothing.”
“Well, I know everything about you, and unfortunately, Ian also found out. Even if I let you
go, you can’t go back to the White family anymore,” the man sneered.
Shaking her head, Sasha covered her mouth and sobbed. “No, I don’t believe it…”
“Well, I can let you out of this room but I don’t think you can still go back to become Ms.
White.” The man let go of Sasha and stood up slowly.
Seeing that, Sasha stood up from the ground and was about to rush out. However, as soon
as she ran to the door, she did not have the courage to open it.
The man was right. Everything had changed since Gordon died. Stunned for a long time,
Sasha bit her lip and turned around slowly.
The man sat still and looked at Sasha with a smile on his face. He knew she would not run

“What the hell do you want?” Sasha asked and tried to remain calm. Having conspired
with Charlie for 10 years, Sasha was not as simple and innocent as she looked.
The man shrugged and looked at Sasha, “Well, if I can help you kill Charlie, I will, of
course, keep it a secret for you. The wise choice is to follow me.” As the man spoke, he
waved at Sasha and said, “Come over here.”
Sasha hesitated for a moment.
The man in front of him killed Charlie and Gordon. He was a demon, but there was no way
she could refuse him now.
After finishing his conversation with Jane, Ian stood up and wanted to leave. However,
before he left, he looked at Leah.
Leah was confused, but she did not ask. She held a glass of hot water for Jane.
Jane saw Leah and smiled at her gently. “Sarah, come here. I have something to tell you.”
“Okay.” Leah quickly walked over and handed the glass of water to her. Sitting on the edge
of the bed, she asked, “Yes? What you want to tell me?”
Jane held her hand and asked, “What do you think of Ian?”
“Ian?” Without hesitation, Leah answered, “I think he is a good man. Very capable and
responsible, and also good to our family.”
When the White family was in a difficult situation, Ian never ignored them and helped
them all the time.
“Yeah, I think so too,” Jane said. She then took a deep breath and asked straightforwardly,
“What if I want you to marry Ian? Are you willing to do that?”
“Mom, what are you talking about?” Leah was shocked. She stood up subconsciously and
looked at Jayne in surprise. She looked at Jane suspiciously, but it seemed that Jane was
not joking at all.
Seeing that, Jane had no choice but sigh. “Our family needs a man as support now. Sarah,
although I don’t want to force you, Ian is a good and responsible man. You’re going to
have a happy marriage if you marry him. I believe it’s the best choice for you and our
family.”
Hearing that, Leah could not help but sigh.
After calming herself down, Leah pursed her lips and answered, “Ian might not want to
marry me even if I agree. After all, I used to be Han’s wife.”
“Don’t worry. I’ve asked him just now, and he has no objection. If you agree, I can hold the
engagement party for both of you right away.” Jane smiled again. Seeing that Leah did not
resist Ian, she was pleased.
However, Leah remained silent. Ian was like a friend to her. In fact, she was grateful for his
help and for all he had done for the White family. But to marry him…
Nonetheless, Jane was right. It was indeed the best choice to marry Ian at that moment.
She could not be so selfish.
Leah clenched her fists and finally came up with an answer. She nodded and forced a
smile. “Okay, Mom, I will marry him.”
Hearing that, Jane was so delighted. She patted Leah’s hand and said, “Good girl, I believe
Ian will treat you well.”
However, looking at the smile on Jane’s face, Leah was not happy at all.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn the afternoon, Ian came to the White residence again.
Jane told Ian that Leah agreed to marry him, and he was so thrilled.
After examining Jane’s condition, Ian looked into Leah’s eyes when he came out of the
room.
Nonetheless, Leah felt uncomfortable and quickly looked away. She felt strange as their
relationship was different now.
Ian noticed that and guessed Leah was awkward. He sighed slightly and asked, “Can you
see me out?”
Leah was stunned. However, she still nodded and replied, “Okay.”
The two walked out together, but neither of them spoke.
When they walked to the pavilion, Ian suddenly asked, “Sarah, are you reluctant to marry
me?”
“What?” After a moment, Leah shook her head and replied, “No.”
“Then why are you so depressed? I won’t force you if you don’t want to,” Ian said
seriously.
Hearing that, Leah could not help but force a smile, “Well, it’s not that I don’t want to. I
just think that a person like me doesn’t deserve you.”
“Don’t say that. I volunteer to help you and your family,” said Ian seriously. “Although I did
not mean to help you at the beginning, but during the process, I found that you are a
strong and optimistic girl, so I was gradually attracted by you…” Ian expressed his feelings
for her earnestly.
Leah then realized that Ian was expressing his love to her.
