Chapter 184
Maria raised her head after hearing him talk. Meanwhile, Han was absorbed in what he was doing instead of paying attention to Leah and the others.
The smile on Maria’s face vanished instantly as soon as her eyes met Leah’s.
Why was she here?
Maria felt a little self-conscious as she was undoubtedly inferior to Leah. Maria’s facial features were not as defined as Leah’s. Maria was probably not as valuable as the necklace that Leah wore.
The beauty and grace Leah radiated were something that Maria would never master in her life. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Maria bit her lip and moved closer to Han subconsciously.
She could only try her best to secure this man’s heart since she could not beat Leah in any other aspect.
Anne did not notice how Maria was feeling at all.
She then smiled and let Leah and the others inside, as if welcoming a VIP.
Anne said to Kingsley, “These are Lee’s friends. They’re staying with us for a few days until he’s willing to leave.”
As soon as he heard those words, he glanced at Maria and dragged Anne aside.
He whispered to her, “Are you insane? Don’t you know how much Maria likes Lee? Moreover, you’re making them take him away from her?”
Anne rolled her eyes at him and replied, “Both of you are insane. He has a high status. How can you expect someone like him to live in our village for the rest of his life? Both you and your sister are
delusional. Everyone’s at the door waiting for him. Are you still trying to hide the truth?”
Kingsley felt a little shameful after hearing what his wife had to say.
He glanced at Leah and sighed. He answered, “You brought all of them here, and… we didn’t have enough time to prepare.”
“What is there to prepare? Lee will have to go with them as soon as he recovers his memory. Besides, they promised us a lot of money as an appreciation.”
Anne took out the 15 thousand dollars Leah had given her and continued, “Look, she just gave me 15 thousand dollars after speaking with me. We’ll be getting more money if we send her back safely.”
Kingsley’s eyes lit up as soon as he saw the money.
He was finally convinced by Anne.
However, he thought about his little sister who was infatuated with him and got a little hesitant. “Then what about Maria?”
“Maria doesn’t want him to go because he was nice to her, but in fact, he doesn’t like her back at all. He’ll dump Maria once he regains his memory. Don’t worry, she’ll just be sad after a couple of days. She’ll be fine after that.” Anne reassured Kingsley.
Kingsley did not know much about relationships because he was a man.
He liked money.
He felt a little better after hearing Anne’s words.
Kingsley walked over and smiled awkwardly. “Well then, welcome. Stay as long as you wish. Just let us know if you need anything.”
Leah nodded. Then, her eyes fell on Han.
Han was weaving a basket. He was incredibly focused and his long eyelashes shaded his eyes.
Maria squatted next to him, fascinated by his work.
Leah smiled gently and walked toward Han, then asked, “When did you learn how to do this?”
Han heard her voice and looked up at her.
A hint of doubt appeared in his eyes. “You again?”
“Yep. I’ll stay with you instead since you don’t want to leave.” Leah placed a stool and sat beside him.
Shawn’s eyes darkened. He pouted and followed her.
There were four people in the room at that instant.
Han looked at Leah and said seriously, “I won’t leave. I’m not changing my mind no matter what you say.”
After losing his memories, Han did not seem to be as difficult to get along with as she imagined.
Leah grinned.
However, he did not know that Leah gave him a familiar feeling.
She felt so familiar that he could have a deep conversation with her at any time.
“Yeah, I know,” Leah said with a smile. She held her head with her hands. “I’m not urging you to leave. I’m just staying with you for a while.”
“Okay.” Han replied. Then, he lowered his eyes and said, “Knock yourselves out.”
Leah was not surprised by his attitude.
She continued, “You haven’t answered my question. When did you learn to make this?”
Han cut the bamboo strips into thin strips and then replied, “I saw him doing it the day before yesterday and I learned how to do so on my own.”
Han answered as he pointed at Kingsley.
Leah gave him a sincere smile. “You’re amazing.”
Han sliced the bamboo strips and frowned.
Kingsley heard their conversation and felt alarmed.
It should not be like this.
There were a couple of ladies approaching Han for the past two days. However, he treated them coldly and would not even bat an eye at them.
This made her feel proud.
However, it was different now.
Han answered this lady nicely.
Maria clenched her hands tightly and a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes.
She could not drive her away now since her sister-in-law had brought them in.
What was she going to do?
At the same time, Shawn was not happy about this as well.
He was furious!
Ever since Leah met Han, she could not take her eyes off him.
Shawn felt disgusted as soon as he saw Han.
It felt like he hated that man instinctively.
Now that this man wanted to snatch Leah away from him, he despised him even more.
Han cut the bamboo strips as Leah sat next to him and watched him the whole afternoon.
She was thinking about how to restore Han’s memory.
“Han.” Leah called out his name.
Han did not respond. It was as if it was not his name at all.
Leah sighed. She then continued, “Lee.”
Han looked up at her.
“Have you forgotten about everything? What else do you remember?”
Han frowned at her. “Why are you asking me this?”
Leah replied, ” You can’t just carry on with your life without knowing what happened even if you don’t wanna leave this place, right?”
