After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 150

Chapter 150 A Shameless Guy

She went downstairs to get herself a glass of water with an unpleasant face.
She got so thrilled because of that unexpected proposal that she gulped down plenty of liquor at the banquet tonight. Though no getting drunk, she was thirsty for water after that.
If it weren't because of that, she wouldn't have bumped into Manuel.
She didn't want to spend even one more second looking at him.
But fortunately, she was told by Henry tonight that the marriage would be held on the 22nd day next month, which he deemed a day of blessing.
That was what she wanted, for she wouldn't need to put up with staying inside the same house with Manuel ever since the 22nd day next month.

Meanwhile, Manuel just entered his room upstairs.
But then someone knocked on his door.
He walked to open the door, certainly with no expectation of Susan showing up. And there was no way she would show up right at the door.
Seeing Justine standing at the door, he forced a smile, "Mom, you're up late."
"How is Oscar now?" asked Justine.
She seemed to be noticed that a car accident just happened to Oscar.
"Nothing serious but a slight fracture. He will stay in hospital for a couple of days to see if there is a cerebral concussion. If he's fine, he will be discharged soon."
"So what exactly happened?" Justine couldn't help asking.
"Nothing but a car accident."
"Manuel!" Justine warned, with a serious face.
"Alright, it was because of Hannah." Manuel knew he couldn't keep on covering up the truth.
Justine seemed a bit stunned.
"Mom, Oscar knows what he's doing. Don't worry. He risked his life to save Hannah, that means Hannah is important to him. She deserves it anyway." Manuel was trying to put in a good word for Hannah.
"Of course I know that." Replied Justine. Then she continued, "Do you think I am that kind of person who will impose my idea on Oscar? If your cousin loves Hannah, of course I will stand by it."
Manuel responded with a smile to show his consent.
"But what about you?" Justine shifted the topic, "Susan got proposed to tonight. How do you feel?"
Justine rarely showed concern for her son so directly most of the time. But out of the nature of a mother, there was no doubt that she cared about her son.
"I am good." Replied Manuel composedly.
But Justine still looked at him with uncertainty.
"Don't worry. I am tough enough to handle it even after getting crossed in love. I am stronger than you expect. Suicide will be the least I would do. Since I returned from abroad, I am ready for everything." Manuel explained.
Justine added with a sigh, "Susan doesn't deserve your love."
Manuel didn't continue.
Nor did Justine continue the topic.
"Alright, time for bed." Said Justine.
"Good night." Manuel smiled.
Watching his mom walking away, he slowly closed the door.
And the smile gradually faded away from his face.
As time went by, it would matter to him less and less.

When Hannah woke up the next morning, it took her quite a while to sober herself up. Not until then did she realize a car accident happened to Oscar last night because of her.
She hurried to get up and saw the man sleeping soundly on the bed.
She somehow let out a breath of relief when seeing him around.
It had just passed 8:00 AM right now.
She realized she barely got 5 hours of sleep last night since she had fallen asleep at around 3 am.
Hannah failed to return to sleep. So she started to observe Oscar's sleeping face.
The wound appeared clearly unpleasing on his handsome face under the daylight. She supposed she would be guilty if there was any scar left on his face, a flawless masterpiece made by the God.
"Do you find me attractive?" with his eyes closed, Oscar blurted.
Hannah hurried to look away, seemingly embarrassed.
She did nothing but watched the wound on his face. What was she embarrassed about?
But she never expected he actually noticed what she was doing even with his eyes closed.
Incredible!
"Come over here." Said Oscar.
"No, I wanna sleep for a little longer." Hannah refused with an excuse.
"Give me a hand. I need to go to the bathroom." Said Oscar.
Hannah remained silent.
"I can't get up myself. Are you gonna watch me pee on the bed?"
She finally got convinced and lifted the quilt to get up.
Out of a sense of kindness to offer a hand, she simply walked over to support him up without checking her own current condition first.
After all, he got injured because of her.
"The doctor didn't get you a catheter?" She bent over to help him up.
However, the next second, she noticed the way he looked at her was a bit weird.
Looking down along with his gaze, she found herself nearly naked.
"Ah!" Hannah immediately let go of him, with both hands covering her own chest.
Oscar seemed to forget about what the manner meant.
"Don't look!" with her back on him, Hannah went crazily mad.
The accident happened exactly after the banquet, and she was wearing tube evening dress all the time.
They were in the hospital last night, where there was no convenience for her to take a shower and get changed, and she slept in the gown.
Her dress had slipped off probably while she was sleeping.
Undoubtedly, Oscar saw most part of her chest.
"You're beautiful." He commented with a smile.
Hannah was burning in rage, for he didn't turn his eyes off, but commented o her body.
She stormed off to the closet inside the ward and got herself a suit of hospital pajamas, which at least seemed more decent than the dress she was wearing right now.
Then she rushed into the bathroom. While looking into the mirror, she found herself terribly disheveled with the mess of the makeup left on her face.
She couldn't believe Oscar just flirt with her when she looked like this.
She got in the bathroom and took a shower.
At this moment, she totally forgot about Oscar, who was in urgent need to pee.
When she got out of the bathroom, looking refreshed again, she saw Oscar turning livid.
It seemed that he was about to burst.
Hannah couldn't help laughing out loud.
He deserved it!
If he had kindly suggested her to get changed first, it wouldn't have taken so long for her to take a shower. Or perhaps she would have simply spent a few minutes changing the clothes.
She walked over to him, "Did you pee? Do I need to call for a carer to change the bed sheet?"
Staring at her, Oscar replied, "You have to feel around with your hand."
She was rendered speechless.
