Chapter 399 Put on Airs

The window closed off the crisp Autumn breeze from entering the building.

Leah shook, feeling the chill in her bones, but she was more shocked than anything.

After much struggle, she managed to push Han out of the way. Out of breath, she asked Carlotta,

“What did you say? What did you collect?”

Deep within, Leah was nervous that Carlotta would acquire such a thing. She hoped her ears deceived

her.

Picking on Leah’s body trembles, Han took a glance at the gloomy weather outside the window before

pulling her into his arms to sit on his lap.

The little girl excitedly snapped another photo of Leah and Han’s intimate position and showed off the

photo on her phone.

Carlotta lifted her head with pride. “Look. These are all the photos I took of Mommy and Daddy

together.

“We should get a family photo professionally once Mommy gets better. It will be the perfect keepsake

for the future.”

The sparkle in Carlotta’s eyes like never before only broke Leah’s heart.

There was no future between her and Han.

Han was putting on another act as a way to get back at her.

Leah parted her lips but could not bring herself to extinguish the brilliance in Carlotta’s eyes.

Put in a passive position, Leah answered, “Sure. I’ll take you out when I’m done here.”

Carlotta pouted her lips in displeasure. “It’s you two. Both of you must take me out.”

“Mommy, you always forget Daddy. Don’t tell me you move on to Mr. Hendrik!”

Leah was beyond awkward. “Don’t say such things, Carlotta.”

The child sure had a wild imagination…

Raising a brow, Han tightened his grip around Leah’s thin waist. “Did you fall in love with him?”

Leah had no words. “No! Let me go. I need to make a move to White Group.”

Although she had no idea why Han was tolerant of Hendrik’s presence around her, Leah had no reason

to hide that fact since Han did not mind at all.

With a deadpan look, Han held her with one arm and continued to feed her. “Finish it.”

Leah’s surprised eyes met his gaze and relented since he had no intention of letting her go until her

plate was clean.

The warm food slid through her esophagus, bringing a flushed sensation to her belly.

Despite the cruel winds of Autumn howling outside, Leah was away from the cold sitting in Han’s warm

embrace.

His body temperature seemed to be melting the icy walls she put up around her.

Hanging her head low, Leah robotically swallowed the food. Her eyes welled up as her belly was filled.

She could taste the difference in the food he personally prepared, and it tasted so good.

He could have picked many other ways to crush her spirit. Why did he adopt this method?

The mundane yet happy life was what she yearned for from the very start.

At this rate, Leah was afraid she might lose herself into oblivion.

“I’m full.” Feeling stuffed, Leah turned her head away from the incoming spoon.

Han quietly stared at her for a while until he was certain she had her fill before finishing off the

remaining food.

Leah wanted to say something about him using the same spoon but shut up in the end.

They had shared a kiss moments ago, so it was no biggie to be eating off the same spoon.

“You can carry on eating. I should get off you.” Leah’s palms were clamming since Han did not have

plans to let her go.

The foot traffic in the outside hallway was building. What if someone were to enter the room and see

them like this…

With his arm around her waist, Han dined with grace.

Han finished the meal and spoke of something else, “I saw the design sketches for HJ Corporation that

you left at home. It won’t do.”

Leah was a designer, and his firm denial rubbed her the wrong way. “And you know better?”

Han curled his lips as Leah did not take the news well. “I know a little. First of all, you’re going at it in

the wrong direction.

“The Victor family of HJ Corporation dates way back centuries and is rich in culture and history. Your

design demonstrates splendor and glory, but it’s missing something.”

Seeing that he had a point, Leah inquired, “What’s that?”

With getting away from Han’s arms no longer the priority, Leah earnestly drew closer to get an answer.

Han seemed to be in a better mood as he ran his fingers along her waist. “Do you want to know?”

Leah solemnly nodded her head.

He was right. The core elements of her design were splendor and magnificence.

“Kiss me.”

Leah was dumbstruck by Han’s request. She pulled a straight face and jumped out of his arms. “I need

to get to the office.”

She should not have expectations. He was merely trying to humiliate her in Carlotta’s presence!

It did not surprise Han that Leah was mad. The glee in his eyes was without the usual sarcasm.

“You should learn more about the head of the Victor household’s preferences. You will be able to get a

feel of reflecting the rich family history in your design.”

Leah’s fury disappeared in a poof. She furrowed her brows. “I’ve done the same genre for the HJ

design competition. Wouldn’t it be monotonous to do the same for the entire series?”

Han drew near to her and smiled faintly. “You’ll know when you look into their past.”

He then left with Carlotta.

Leah returned to the CEO’s office in the White Group while still figuring out the meaning behind Han’s

words.

She had done a run-through on the Victors’ family history while competing at the HJ design

competition. Perhaps she did not look at the broader picture.

She guessed she should do more research…

Leah texted, “Ms. Victor, I’m sorry that I would need an extra day for the sketch…”

She just sent Ms. Victor a text about postponing the deadline when Ross stepped into the office.

“Ms. White, the senior executives got together in a meeting, kicking up a fuss and mocking you for

failing to acquire West Street’s plot. Do you want to contact Mr. Hendrick to deal with them?”

Ross was anxious. It did not take long for the senior management team to make things difficult for Ms.

White.

Snapping out of her thoughts, Leah drew a deep breath and got a grip on herself. “You should go

ahead and keep them in line. I’ll be right there.”

That reminded her. Leah was the acting CEO of the White Group now. The sketch for HJ corporation

had to wait.

Leah straightened out her appearance and armed herself with a sullen look and Vesper’s contract

before strutting to the conference room.

Before she could get close, Leah saw a group of employees gathered in front of the meeting room.

“Poor management team. They yield to the vixen!”

“I heard the woman made a wager with the senior executives that she would acquire a partnership with

Mr. Thompson. That’s ridiculous. Who does she think she is?”

“Mr. Thompson won’t fall for her sh*t…”

“Are you done? You can proceed to the HR department and go through the departure formalities if you

are,” Leah curtly interrupted their conversation.

After the initial scare of her sudden appearance, the crowd started to express their disapproval of her

decision.

“You’re only an acting CEO. You have no right to fire us.”

“That’s right! Mr. Lamere - Jackson Lamere – personally hired us. Even though Mr. Hendrick acquired

the company, we only take our orders from Mr. Lamere! Stop putting on airs!”
