After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 149

Chapter 149 I Love You

Hannah turned her back on Oscar.
He always failed her expectation! She knew it!
And he always pissed her off.
She didn't even know since when Oscar had seen that.
Aggrieved, she closed her eyes to sleep with her mouth shut.
The ward fell into silence.
When it was getting late at night, Hannah was about to fall asleep.
Though a bang of pain still haunted inside her head because of her anger triggered by Oscar, she still managed to reach the edge of slumber.
"Hannah, I love you…" Oscar's voice suddenly echoed inside the ward.
Her whole body tautened suddenly. She started wondering if he was talking in sleep.
It was late at night. What was more, both of them had remained silent for hours. So he should be in sleep.
However, his voice felt like he still stayed awake. But Hannah maintained her posture with her back on him.
She didn't seem to get ready to figure out the answer no matter what it might be.
She couldn't help contemplating.
Charles had been maneuvering all kinds of tricks to alienate her from Oscar. However, he probably never expected that not only the assassination he planned tonight had failed, but it brought both Oscar and Hannah closer to each other.
At least that was what Hannah could tell at this moment.
Undoubtedly, the failure to assassinate Hannah had gone beyond Charles's expectation.
So he looked rather livid when he picked up the phone.
Of course, he was trying to drive a wedge between Hannah and Oscar. That was why he intimately interacted with her tonight.
The affection between them had attracted all public attention that should have belonged to him-that was the reason why he tried to stir up a dissension between them.
Out of the nature of a guy-the desire to hold Hannah in possession, Oscar would probably pick a quarrel with her once he noticed her suspicious intimacy with another guy, Charles supposed.
At least it would be a way for Charles to vent out his grievance.
On the other hand, his fake intimacy was used as a cover-up for the following assassination-from the perspective of others, he just spent some time friendly talking with Hannah before what happened to her next. People wouldn't be likely to make him one of the suspects.
However, the failure to assassinate went far beyond his expectation.
After sending out a group of hitmen, Hannah survived it!
She should have been killed!
Charles once thought about leaving her a chance, divorcing Oscar and returning to his side. Of course, he didn't truly love her but would use her instead. There was no way he would have even a bit of feeling for her. However, that ungrateful bitch actually dared to turn him down!
For a woman doing no good but harm to him, she had to be killed.
Tonight was the time she should have died!
Charles smashed his phone on the ground. Crack! The phone broke into pieces.
One day, he would smash Hannah just like what he did to the phone!
…
Manuel took Theodore back to the house first.
The car was galloping on the empty road, with few cars around.
Streetlights standing alone on both sides seemed lonely at the moment.
"Manuel," Theodore suddenly uttered while looking outside the window.
"Yes?"
"Do you think they are suitable match for each other? I mean Oscar and Hannah."
Manuel smiled to reply, "Have you ever seen Oscar making stupid decision?"
"But that's a stupid decision when he wants to marry Hannah, I suppose."
"Hannah was born in a privileged family. His marriage with her has brought him brilliance on top of his own career." Said Manuel frankly.
"If he takes his own benefit as top priority, I hope so…But I have seen what he has done tonight when he was overwhelmed by emotional feelings. That's what concerns me the most. If we had been a bit more careless tonight, we would have seen his dead body right now." While speaking, Theodore felt nervous.
Manuel shook his head, "My cousin knows what he's shouldering better than anyone else."
Yeah. Even though Oscar clearly knew what he was shouldering, he still showed no hesitation to risk his own life for the sake of her. Whatever it might take.
"Don't think about it. Just believe him." Manuel appeared carefree while adding, "Well, at least Hannah is a nice match for him."
Theodore turned to look at him. Then he slowly stated, "But you have never made a brilliant decision when it comes to judging ladies."
Manuel was rendered embarrassed.
"Susan Phillips, a typical bad example!" added Theodore.
Manuel had no idea how to refute it. Indeed, when it came to love, he was totally a loser.
Soon, they arrived at the Wold Manor.
Theodore got off the car and then Manuel returned home.
Manuel then went back to the Phillips Manor.
Since Henry had successfully winded up the proposal, the wedding would be coming soon.
And of course, Susan would move out of the manor after that.
Manuel parked his car into the manor. Then he got off and stepped into the lobby.
It was late at night. Under the dim light, the whole building fell into silence.
He sneaked forward, trying to stay quiet as much as possible. However, when he reached the second floor, a shrill scream of a female suddenly rushed over.
"Ah!"
Manuel was taken aback.
It was Susan who suddenly appeared in a pink night dress.
Not until he clearly recognized her did he collect himself again.
"Why don't you go to sleep? It's late at night! What are you doing here?" Susan questioned curtly.
It was terrifying to show in that way.
"I just returned." Replied Manuel.
"What took you so long?" Susan looked at him from up and down. Then she continued, "You got a girlfriend?"
Manuel didn't respond.
"Is it Martina?" Susan couldn't resist showing agitated.
She thought she would accept it if Manuel had something to do with that woman, for both of them were the two she hated the most in the world.
"You want me to have a girlfriend?" asked Manuel suddenly.
Susan was completely perplexed, for she didn't know why he asked this question. She cared little about his private affairs but merely bantered with him just now.
"You should get to bed." Said Manuel casually.
He didn't intend to get any response from Susan by asking like that, nor did he need her response. From the bottom of his heart, he knew that Susan never cared.
She never cared about his private matters.
So he walked past Susan.
"I want you to be alone for the rest of your life!" Susan suddenly uttered from behind.
That seemed to the answer to his question.
Manuel smiled.
He deemed it a kind of curse instead of a kind of fancy for him.
And he smiled because Susan might probably be right about it.
He simply walked away, saying nothing.
Watching him with his back, she somehow felt distracted by this man, whom she showed no feelings for at the beginning but later she changed her mind about it for a second and then now returned to being indifferent about at this moment.
'Why don't you stay abroad? Why are you getting me annoyed?'
