Chapter 27
Molly made a call immediately after she walked out of Euphoria Land.
“Did you find that bitch?
“No
“Find her immediately! Han went to Euphoria Land today too. If he finds out about this, I won’t keep any one of you alive!”
Molly hung up. Her eyes were full of malice.
It couldn’t drag on any longer. Many things happened unexpectedly. She had to get rid of that woman) so she could get Han all to herself.
Meanwhile, Leah opened her eyes slowly after Han left.
She tried to hear what was going on outside the room. However, she couldn’t hear anything. Suddenly, the door opened. Leah was shocked. She returned to lie on the sofa hurriedly.
“Ms. Leah, you can stop acting now,” said a gentle voice. It was Ben.
Leah saw Ben holding a bag. It was from a designer brand called Ignis. Their clothes cost 10,000 dollars a piece at least.
After putting the clothes on the table, Ben said, “Mr. Howard asked me to bring this to you.”
Leah sneered, “What is this? Trying to give me something to make up for what he did?”
Ben sighed again. He could not bear to see Leah’s swollen cheeks after she got slapped, “Ms. Leah, Mr. Howard did it for your own good.”
“He should have let me go if he really wanted what’s best for me. Why did he lock me up and say such things like a hypocrite?” Leah was totally disappointed in Han.
Ben wanted to explain but he hesitated. He could only shake his head and sigh, “He still can’t let you go at the moment. If you have any requests, you can tell the bodyguard outside the door.”
He left after saying that.
I can tell the bodyguard if I have any requests?
Leah had an idea when she remembered what Ben said. She opened the door after getting dressed. Two buff bodyguards were standing guard outside. They stopped her when they saw her coming out, “You can’t ge

“I’m not escaping. I just want to go to the toilet.” Leah pointed to the end of the corridor calmly.
The bodyguards were in a dilemma.
Leah sneered, “Han just asked you to keep an eye on me. He didn’t forbid me to go to the toilet, right? If Han wants to abandon me because I defecated in my pants, I’ll tell him it’s your fault!”
The bodyguards nodded and said, “Fine, we’ll follow you.”
“Are you going to the female toilet with me?”
“We will wait for you outside the door.”
Leah had no choice but to compromise. She walked towards the end of the corridor with the bodyguards watching on.
As she was reaching the toilet, she turned around and shouted, “Han!” The two bodyguards were shocked. They turned around subconsciously. Leah started running when the opportunity arose.
The bodyguards realized they were fooled. They went after Leah immediately. Leah was panicking. Then she saw the man that she saved previously in front of her.
She pulled him along to hide inside another room. She locked the door while gasping for air. The man looked at her while raising his eyebrows. He laughed, “Did you get kidnapped again?”
Leah stared at the man. She thought he was being pursued just like her, but seeing how he could walk around yet still appear in front of her unharmed, she started to wonder if this man might have a more complicated background than she imagined.
“I saved you once. It’s your turn to save me now.” Leah said while catching her breath.
As soon as she finished speaking, someone tried to break the door.
With Han’s influence, he could do anything in Euphoria Land. Even if his bodyguards break the door, Wilson wouldn’t blame him.
The man said casually while leaning on the door, “I can’t even protect myself. How can I save you? You are overestimating me.”
“No. Since you are still here, it means you are currently in a safe position. Also, I can see that you are able to walk freely around this place. You have the ability to bring me out.” Leah said calmly.
The man was surprised. He paused for a moment before he started laughing, “You are smart.”
“Bang!” The bodyguards rammed the door again.
“Please, save me!” Leah begged.
The man shook his head, “That won’t do. I could retaliate if I offended Wilson but if I offended Han…”
Leah understood. Everyone was afraid of Han in Linkville including the man in front of her who was a cold- blooded killer. She started to lose hope.
The man looked at her face. Her skinny body was even more obvious now that she was wearing a sweater. Within an hour, her cheeks already become swollen from Han’s slap.
“It’s all right. I won’t trouble you.” Leah thought the man was feeling guilty because of his silence. After a moment of thought, she took a pen and a piece of paper, “I don’t want you to save me. You just need to help me tell this person that I’m in Euphoria Land.”
She quickly wrote down a phone number and a name before stuffing the paper into the man’s hand.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!” The room’s door was shaking. It looked like it would be broken into the next second.
The man casually received the paper, but he froze immediately after taking a look at what was written on it.
“lan?” He was almost mumbling his name.
“Yes. Please tell him. Thank you.” Leah begged.
Unexpectedly, the man ripped that piece of paper to shreds. He said meanly, “I’m not doing it.”
Leah looked at him in despair.
The bodyguards would soon break into the room. Leah looked at him. She knew she had nowhere to go. She walked towards the door with a smile.
The remembered how she acted calmly to dress his wounds back at the warehouse. He whispered to her, “Don’t open the door no matter what you hear tonight. Unless it’s me.”
Leah was surprised.
The man struck her forehead lightly, “Got it?”
Leah nodded. At the same time, the door had been kicked open. The two bodyguards grabbed hold of Leah’s arms as they took her back to her room regardless of her struggles.
It was a torturous night for Leah. On one hand, she was afraid of Han’s arrival which would shatter her hope. On the other hand, she was wondering what would happen later that night.
It was two in the morning. Leah almost fell asleep on the sofa.
“Thump!”
There was a loud noise outside the door followed by the sound of doors opening, things smashing, footsteps and screams. It was horrifying, especially on a quiet night. Leah wanted to go out to have a look, but she stopped when she remembered what the man told her. After some time, someone was knocking on the door. She heard a man’s voice coming from outside, “It’s me.”
