Chapter 462


    Chapter 462 Countermeasure


    It was quite unusual for the entire Veyris to ostracize a startuppany like Dream Designs.


    Leah put her phone away. She knew this was Anna''s doing. After all, Anna married Shawn so they now


    controlled the two most important seaports on Veyris.


    "Sarah, they are trying to cut us off from the entire market. If this carries on, ourpany will..."


    Serena was deeply concerned. It didn''t take long for her to put two and two together. "That Anna wants


    to destroy your career now that she failed to take Han from you."


    "Forget about her." Leah wasn''t too riled up. "We need to make sure the public is on our side. Tell our


    PR department to increase our visibility and debunk any negative rumors."


    Serena nodded in agreement. "You''re a genius, Sarah. We can sway the royal family if the public


    supports us."


    She immediately headed into her room and contacted the PR department. If anything could hold Leah


    back from her n tomorrow, it would be Carlotta. She entered her daughter''s room just to see that


    Carlotta was half-asleep.


    "You''re done talking already, Mommy? Are you going to tell me a story now?" Carlotta ducked out from


    the sheet and rubbed her eyes.


    Leah''s heart grew tender with Carlotta''s infantile voice. "Which story do you want to hear tonight?"


    "Anything, Mommy." Carlotta gave a bright smile.


    It was a peaceful winter night, like the calm before the storm.


    Leah woke up to a rainy day the next morning. Han didn''t return home at all. After she had breakfast


    with Carlotta, Leah nagged,


    "Remember what I said, Carlotta. Don''t go anywhere today. The men here will protect you."


    She truly couldn''t let go of her baby girl.


    "Yes, Mommy. I''ll protect myself," answered Carlotta obediently, which slightly reassured Leah.

    As usual, Leah hailed a cab to her office. This time, she was all alone. Han and his people were all


    escorting her in secret. Meanwhile, Susan yed the role of a potential client. Together, Susan and


    Leah went to a remote ce to evaluate the feasibility of a project.


    "Sarah, I n to build a theme park here. Can you look around ande up with a refreshing design?"


    Susan exined her demand.


    The onlypanion they had was a vast grasnd.


    "Sure." Leah nodded. She then proceeded to take photos of the area.


    "I need to use the toilet." Susan found an excuse to disappear. She then snuck into a van.


    It began to drizzle now. There was a murderous intent in the air. Like a vulnerable target, Leah felt


    exposed.


    Now?


    She pulled her jacket closer to her body.


    Pshiiu.


    A sharp sound echoed through the air. Before Leah knew what happened, a dagger was nted on her


    back. Leah staggered and fell to the ground promptly. Han managed to lock down his target the


    moment the assassin struck.


    Thump. Thump. Thump.


    Three men d in ck fell from a tree.


    "What do you want from Ms. White?" Ben tied the three men and interrogated one of the three men.


    The man just gave a derisive chuckle and bit the poison capsule inside his mouth. He died right away.


    "You aren''t dying today," said Serena as she quickly shoved a cotton cloth into the mouth of the


    remaining assassins.


    Han sauntered in. If anything, he looked more like an assassin.


    He looked down at the assants. "Why is Ravensong targeting Sarah White?"


    Han''s merciless aura didn''t intimidate them. They only red at him.


    "I can only wish you luck," Serenamented.


    Although they were expert assassins from Ravensong, they hadn''t seen what Han was capable of. He


    could make them wish they were dead.


    Han gave a devilish grin and summoned his subordinates. "Take them away."


    Everyone knew what would happen next. Even Serena and Susan were frightened. After Ben took


    those assassins away, Han approached the prostrating Leah and pulled the dagger out.


    "Oscar-worthy performance there." Han carried Leah in his arms.


    Leah felt relieved when Han''s cologne invaded her nose. The thick bulletproof vest on her still made


    her ufortable though.


    "But they wouldn''t say anything."


    "We know they work for Ravensong now. I will locate its headquarters sooner orter,"forted Han.


    It wasn''t like those people could ever live once they were caught anyway. Serena did not like the evil


    presence of the man before her. He was like a demon. And Serena just wanted to stay the hell away


    from him.


    But a brilliant idea came to her mind.


    "Oh, Mr. Howard, as my best friend''s boyfriend, can you help us out here? Veyris is isting Dream


    Designs. Within a night, everyone canceled their order. We have lost so much money."


    Leah was shocked by Serena''s sudden plea.


    "We can handle it ourselves..."


    Since when did Serena be this ingratiating?


    Han was happy with the attention. He looked at Leah affectionately. "Don''t worry. The countermeasure


    is in ce."
