After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 138

Chapter 138 Oscar and Hannah Slayed Everyone

"If you like it I like it." The smile on Oscar's face was so bright.
That was a boy who was in first love showing a smile, sincere and pure, when he was approved of by his beloved girl.
Hannah thought, if it weren't the truth that Oscar's frequent dating with other women was exposed to the public, she would almost believe at this moment that Oscar did like her, and that she was the only one for him.
She walked to Oscar's side.
Before she could properly appreciate herself, the shop assistant began to flatter them, "Oh, gosh, you're so fabulous. Mrs Wells and Mrs Wells are a perfect match. I couldn't believe my eyes. They look so good on you. You must be the most beautiful couple in the world."
Hannah was a little shy.
She was wondering whether it was their bragging that made this expensive dress be sold so well.
She looked at herself in the full-length mirror.
She chose a silver-gray tight long-tailed evening dress, which was so elegant.
She didn't mean to match Oscar's suit. It was that Hannah had been fond of the gray color during this time, so she unconsciously chose this one.
Looking at herself in the mirror, she felt that she seemed a bit scheming somehow.
In Janet's eyes, there was a sense of danger to Hannah.
"I love it." Oscar suddenly spoke.
Hannah got confused about what he referred to with "it"--did he mean his suit, her dress, or her?
She blushed slightly when thinking of this.
Hannah followed the shop assistant to the dressing room again.
Oscar, Theodore and Thomas were waiting outside.
When the girls finished their makeup at 6:30 pm, they left the store and went to the banquet site by car.
Hannah, Oscar and Theodore were in the same car, which was driven by Jimmy.
Oscar had been holding tight Hannah's hand since they walked out of the dressing area, and even when they were in the car.
Hannah felt her palm sweating.
But she couldn't break free at all because he wouldn't let go of her hand.
Theodore could see the intimacy of them through the rear-view mirror.
Now he was thinking maybe he would find someone to fall in love with. He didn't want to lose his face in this way.
The car arrived at its destination.
Jimmy got out of the car first and opened the door for Oscar.
When Oscar was outside the car, he stretched out a hand to Hannah.
A large number of reporters clustered at the door.
Hannah and Oscar didn't stay but walked straight in.
Theodore followed up.
After a short while, Thomas and Janet arrived too.
But when Janet got out of the car, she said, "Thomas, I hope we can keep our distance in the following days."
Thomas' face changed slightly.
"We've broken up."
"Yeah, we broke up, so why did you still come to me today?" Thomas said with an emphatic tone.
"You know that I am here for Oscar."
Thomas looked at her coldly.
"I dated with you because I wanted to make Oscar jealous. But now, I found it couldn't stimulate him at all, but gave other women opportunities. So I broke up with you. Keep our distance. That's a good way to avoid trouble. I hope you can get off the car after I walk in."
With that, Janet left indifferently.
The moment she opened the door, Thomas said clearly, "Oscar won't like you."
Janet's face looked so terrible.
"He's been liking Hannah for many years."
"You think I'll believe you?" Janet turned her head and said fiercely to Thomas, "Do you think I'll give up Oscar and be with you again? Keep on dreaming."
After saying that, Janet slammed the door shut.
Thomas stared at Janet's back.
He felt weary after being with her these years.
...
Inside the banquet hall.
Oscar and Hannah brought down the house as soon as they appeared.
Everyone's eyes were on them.
It was the first time they had stoop up together in front of the press after they got married, in such a high-profile way. No wonder people were all astonished by them.
In fact, what surprised them most was not Oscar's attendance. His face was familiar to the press, for he had attended a lot of banquets of high class. He never hid himself but feared that others would not see him. Sometimes he would deliberately create some scandals to let himself appear in public again.
In contrast, Hannah tried to keep herself low-key.
She hadn't attend a single banquet for a long time.
The first time she had appeared at a charity banquet, she had made an attempt to bid the sapphires for her mother, which had been later a birthday gift for her mother. Then during her marriage ceremony with Oscar, people all around the country had seen her brightness. But it had been difficult for her to keep a low profile in her marriage.
What about this time? What did she come for? Did she come to keep Oscar company?
It could not be denied that they two were the winners on scene with their outstanding appearance.
People who liked were in thralls to their feelings, while people who were jealous could hate their guts, like Charles.
He was standing in the hall and socializing with the dignitaries who came to and fro. He looked over when noticing a little uproar there. He saw them and he was stunned. Charles tried to ignore their brightness and the radiance behind them, but he failed.
He turned away to keep calm, communicating with others as usual.
Being in the limelight, Oscar and Hannah did not show any panic.
They came directly to Miguel.
Miguel was chatting with Edward Phillips.
He greeted to his daughter and son-in-law in a good mood,"Hannah, Oscar."
Hannah had planned to go to the banquet with her father at the beginning. Since Oscar was there too, she changed her idea and accompanied him to avoid being badgered. And she called her father to meet at the banquet.
That was why she came to greet her father as soon as she arrived.
"Dad, Mr Phillips."
Oscar was also very polite, "Dad, Mr Phillips."
Hannah cringed when she heard Oscar call her dad the same as she did.
Who could have predicted that they would become a couple while they used to be deadly foes in her previous life.
"What a sweet daughter, Hannah." Edward continued with a smile, "I hope Susan could boast half of your decency."
Although Susan was a badly-behaved child most of the time, Hannah would not let others look down on Susan.
"Mr Phillips, don't worry so much. Susan will know your minds one day. She's just a little girl now."
"I'm looking forward to this day too." Edward said. But in fact, he didn't have much hope.
"Where is Susan?" Hannah looked around.
It was her family who held the party tonight.
She should come here.
