Chapter 161
As soon as Han walked into the hall, he noticed Leah beside Ron. Immediately, his face darkened.
Ron was big and brawny. At that time, he was sitting sideways with his left hand supporting his chin,
and when Han walked in, he was putting some food on Leah’s te.
Leah was wearing a ck dress and looked rather petite next to Ron. Her slim-fit ck dress not only
revealed her delicate corbone but also her slender neck. She was holding a te with one hand and
a fork with the other. It seemed that she would eat whatever Ron served her. Somehow, she seemed
docile next to Ron. It was different when she was with Han. In Han’s eyes, she was like a hedgehog
with thorns.
The hall was quiet with the appearance of Han. Ron suddenly felt the quietness and raised his head
when he met Han’s cold eyes.
Ron was stunned for a moment. With a gleam of uneasiness in his eyes, he lowered his head and
whispered in Leah’s ears, “Your ex is here.”
Leah, on the other hand, was lost in thought. From the beginning, she felt awkward. Hearing what Ron
said, she raised her head subconsciously. Then she saw Han with a shy girl. However, the girl kept
avoiding eye contact with her.
Leah was surprised the girl was not Molly. Why did Han bring this girl instead of Molly? she wondered.
“Look, who’s here? It’s Mr. Howard! ” Ron did not stand up. He was still sittingzily on his chair,
showing no respect for Han at all.
However, Han was not a bit angry. He strode in and found a ce to sit down. Nheless, he fixed
his eyes on Leah for a long time.
Leah, on the other hand, was not looking at Han. She kept looking at the girl beside Han instead.
Although the girl looked ordinary, Leah felt she looked familiar.
“Boss, there is someone elseing,” one of Ron’s subordinates said again.
Hearing that, Ron was not surprised. Since Han showed up, a lot of big shots might show up as well.
“Who is it?” he asked.
Ron’s subordinate wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. “It’s Mr. Shawn Ford.”
Right then, Shawn walked in. He was wearing a shirt and a pair of sses. With a gentle and implicit
expression on his face, he eximed as he strode in, “Congrattions, Ron! I’m so proud of you. You
made it in less than two years!”
However, Leah felt her body stiffen when she heard Shawn’s voice. From Shawn’s appearance, one
might think he was a friendly and nice guy. Only Leah knew how terrible he was.
Nheless, Ron could sense that Leah was tensed. With an expressionless face, he turned his body
sideways and slightly blocked Leah behind him. He then replied to Shawn casually, “Thank you, but it
seems that you haven’t made any progress in the past two years.”
Hearing that, Shawn’s face darkened. However, since all the guests present were veterans in business,
Shawn had no choice but to control himself. He regained hisposure and replied, “Ron, you’re the
boss now. Don’t make fun of me.”
Finally, everyone took their seats. However, Leah felt so ufortable the moment Han and Shawn
arrived.
It seemed that most people at the party knew about what happened between Han and Shawn. In fact,
they were all waiting to see a good show.
As expected, Shawn began to tease Han after he sat down. Shawn was eyeing the girl beside Han and
asked, “Han, is she your ex-wife?”
Hearing that, Han’s face darkened. It was not a secret in Linkville that he had divorced.
He knew Shawn was making fun of him and gave him a murderous look. However, before he could say
anything, the girl beside him spoke first.
The girl muttered in fear, “No, no… My name is Regina Simmons.”
Hearing that, Leah’s eyes lit up. She finally knew why the girl looked familiar to her. Regina was her
high school ssmate. They looked alike and were both quiet and shy.
How did Regina know Han? When did they get together? Leah could not help but wonder. Although
Regina came from a rich family, there was a huge gap between her family and Han’s. She could not
have known him.

Thinking of that, Leah was confused.
“Shut up!” Han interrupted Regina all of a sudden. “Let’s eat.”
Nheless, Shawn could not help but snigger hearing Regina’s answer. He red at Han and asked
again, “So Han, you’ve found yourself a substitute so fast?”
Han red at Shawn coldly again. However, Shawn was used to it and was not a bit bothered. Not only
that, he was exhrated seeing Han getting angry.
Shawn then nce at Leah, who was sitting next to Ron, and teased, “Han, what a poor guy you are.
Your ex is sitting with Ron, and you can only find yourself a substitute. TSK! TSK!”
Bang!
Suddenly, Han threw his fork to Shawn. The fork bounced and hit Shawn’s mouth.
Shawn did not expect Han would throw the fork. His face immediately darkened.
Nheless, Han wiped his hands with a napkin with an expressionless face. He exined
indifferently, ”Oops, it was an ident. I lost control of my hand just now.”
Hearing that, Shawn was speechless. “Your fork hit my lips, and you said it was an ident?”
Seeing what Shawn had done, Leah lost their appetite.
However, Leah’s eyes still fell on Regina. Is she really my substitute? she wondered. But Han hates
women!
When Leah nced at Regina again, her eyes met Han’s. His eyes looked soplicated that she
almost fell into them.
Leah could not help but quickly look away. Was it her illusion? Why did she seem to see a hint of
sadness in Han’s eyes just now?
“Mr. Howard, may I leave now?” Regina approached Han and asked cautiously. It seems that the look
in Leah’s eyes made her nervous. She was afraid Leah would recognize her sooner orter. In the
beginning, she was happy to follow Han to the party. However, as soon as she saw Leah, she felt so
ufortable.
Han frowned impatiently and replied, “Okay.”
Hearing that, Regina quickly stood up and slipped away quietly.
Seeing Regina leaving, Leah frowned slightly. After hesitating for a moment, she murmured into Ron’s
ears and chased after Regina.
