After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 29

Loretta didn’t believe the woman she saw on the dance floor was Michelle.

Loretta always thought Michelle was a country bumpkin, who had been born in a poor family, and who knew nothing about skincare or fashion. Michelle was nothing in the eyes of the rich wives.

Rumour had it that Michelle set Miguel up when she was young so that Miguel would marry her. After Michelle was married to Miguel, she was nobody in the family, just like a caretaker.

However, Loretta was so jealous when she saw Michelle dressed elegantly, and that Miguel held a grand birthday party for her. No woman in the Kensbury City had ever enjoyed such treatment.

It wasn’t only for Loretta.

Miguel’s sister-in-law, Esther, too, thought the same.

Esther looked down on Michelle all along.

Esther married Miguel’s brother not long before Michelle married Miguel.

But she never saw any good in Michelle. She liked to pick on Michelle, and she even collaborated with Miguel’s mother to give Michelle a hard time.

Michelle tolerated all of that.

If Miguel didn’t inherit the Cooper family’s wealth, Michelle would still be the nobody who got bullied by everyone.

Nobody would ever expect that Miguel would value Michelle like this.

Michelle was probably becoming the hot topic in the upper-level society after the words got out.

Especially when Michelle looked so young and pretty after putting on the right dress and makeup. Furthermore, she had a perfect body figure that most of the women in her age didn’t have.

Loretta became more jealous.

However, she had to control herself and hid her jealousy.

The guests in the living were enjoying the graceful dance from Miguel and Michelle on the dance floor.

Some were jealous, some were envious, and some were just being a busybody.

Anyway, the birthday party was going to become the topic of the town among the upper-level society, which meant that Michelle was finally going to feel proud among the rich wives’ circle.

Hannah watched her parents dancing with a smile on her face.

Then, she heard a familiar voice rise beside her.

“I’ve heard it from Theodore. You’ve spent thirty million to buy a token of love for the girl you like.” It was Manuel’s voice, “I didn’t know you’re into mature women.”

They were discussing the sapphire that cost thirty million that was now embedded in Michelle’s tiara.

Theodore spewed out the wine he was drinking.

People who stood beside Theodore was disgusted by his action.

Theodore wiped his mouth and gloated over Oscar’s misfortune, “He got stood up.”

“What?” Manuel knew what happened, but he wanted to make fun of Oscar.

“Isn’t it obvious? Oscar’s goodwill was wasted.” Theodore turned around and asked Oscar, “Am I right?”

Oscar looked back at Theodore, and he left out of a sudden.

“Hey…” Theodore tried to stop him.

‘I’m joking. Why does he get mad?’

The next second, Theodore realized he overthought.

He saw Oscar held a woman’s hand in the dark and headed to the backyard of the Cooper manor.

Hannah got pulled out of the party out of a sudden.

She didn’t mean to overhear their conversation.

What surprised her more was what Manuel, Theodore and Oscar said. Were they even close?

Hannah grew up with Manuel, but she never saw him talking to Oscar before.

Hannah’s mind went blank.

Suddenly, Hannah sensed danger.

She was pushed against the wall in the backyard.

Oscar was pressing against her, and he was looking down at her from the top.

“Oscar, what madness is this?” Hannah struggled and wanted to get away from Oscar.

“Ms Cooper, you know what made a woman irresistible for a man? It’s when she plays hard to get.”

‘Bullshit!’

Hannah wanted to scold Oscar with bad words.

She glared at Oscar in anger. And he was staring at her motionlessly.

“Ms Cooper, you embarrassed me in front of my friends.” Hannah could feel Oscar’s husky, deep voice and his breath on her face.

‘Damn it!’

Hannah cursed.

‘Is this man a womanizer by nature?’

Oscar was so near to Hannah that her whole body tightened up.

“Now tell me, how are you going to make it up to me?” Oscar leaned closer to Hannah as he spoke.

Hannah’s heartbeat was racing.

She could feel Oscar nearly pressing his whole weight against her.

Oscar got close to Hannah’s ear with his lips intentionally.

She was discomfited, “You didn’t say I can’t give it to someone else.”

Hannah knew Oscar was talking about the sapphire.

Manuel was teasing Oscar about how Oscar gave Hannah the sapphire as a token of love, and she gave it to her mother.

“Ms Cooper, are you treating your gifts so casually?” Oscar bit Hannah’s ear.

Her heart was racing madly.

Hannah tried to push Oscar away with her hands, “Let go of me!”

“Ms Cooper, I believed you didn’t answer my question.” Oscar’s lips got even closer to Hannah’s.

“How is it casual when I’m giving it to your mother-in-law?” Hannah’s came out with a made-up answer.

Hannah’s face flushed red the moment she blurted it out.

She was influenced by Oscar.

It was only a fake marriage between them.

Why did they have to make it so ambiguous?

Oscar smiled.

Hannah could feel the curve on his lips.

“I accept your explanation.” Oscar replied with his husky, deep voice, which would really cause goosebumps.

“Are you feeling cold?” Oscar asked.

Hannah was stunned.

It was because Oscar’s hand was stroking her bare shoulder.

Hannah was wearing a strapless gown, so she was basically naked upwards from her chest.

“Why am I feeling so warm?” Oscar kept talking even when Hannah didn’t answer him.

As Oscar spoke, he licked Hannah’s ear.

Hannah gritted her teeth.

Then, she pushed Oscar away with all her effort.

Oscar took a few steps back and looked at Hannah as he was enjoying the sight of Hannah’s blushed face, who was panting heavily.

“Are you in your mating session anytime?” Hannah gritted her teeth.

She should be hating what he did to her, yet she was not so mad.

What a womanizer.

Oscar’s chat-up skills were great. He was already at the peak of perfection in chat up lines.

Let’s not forget that Hannah was reborn, and she should be thirty-two years old by now.

Plus, she was married.

And now Hannah was blushing because of some chat up lines by Oscar, a 25-year-old young man?

Hannah didn’t even remember when was the last time she felt her heart racing fro a guy.

The relationship and marriage between Hannah and Charles in her past life was slow and dull.

“No,” Oscar smiled, “I did that to let Ms Cooper know what it is like to be playful.”

Hannah was speechless.

What a vengeful man!

Hannah took a deep breath and decided not to stay away from Oscar.

After all, the Cooper family was the host of the night, and she had lots of things to take care of. She didn’t want to waste her time here.

Hannah stood up and headed into the living hall.

The moment Hannah got up, she heard the husky, deep voice rose behind her, “I will only be playful with you, Ms Cooper.”
