After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 153

Chapter 153 I Hope You Can Stay Away from Me

Hannah hesitated a little bit there and she said, "Oscar, as I said last night, give me some time. I just can't convince myself to fall in love with you right now."

Oscar still fixed his eyes on her.

Most of the time, Hannah failed to tell what he was thinking. She sometimes found it horrible when noticing the way he covered up his own emotion.

So she wasn't sure if he got irritated after hearing what she just said.

Now she felt uneasily bothered when recalling that he promised he would spare more time for her to show her answer.

However, she failed to guarantee that the answer would be the one he expected.

She hoped that Oscar could maintain who he really was instead of shaping himself to win her favor.

So as soon as she stopped the intimacy between Janet and Oscar just now, she regretted it.

She regretted that she wanted to make up for it. But, meanwhile, there was a guilty in her for hurting Oscar with her words.

Frankly speaking, it was her very first time to find it so paradoxical when she was trying to figure out her relationship with a guy.

Even though she used to love Charles from the bottom of her heart and she once gave away everything she had without even a bit of scruple, she still had no idea what to do when facing Oscar.

So she confessed her real thought, "I have experienced something superficial about love while I was in the relationship with Charles, because of which I found myself really stupid whenever I recalled my previous life. Now I am really afraid if I get trapped into the same situation like that."

Indeed, she flinched when facing Oscar's feelings due to the fear of relapse. That was why she found it hard to accept his love confession.

"Oscar, I know it sounds rather unfair to you and I'm rather selfish if I say so. But now I am trying to get myself rid of the shadow brought from the past. So I hope that…you can stay away from me…" Hannah stressed out her request.

But actually, she still felt heavily burdened after finishing her words.

Meanwhile, she felt like being suffocated.

"How far would you want me to stay away from you?"

Hannah seemed to be frozen.

"Can't sleep with you? Can't kiss you? Or I can't even hold your hand? Or perhaps…we can't even meet each other?" asked Oscar peacefully.

Slightly biting her own lips, Hannah showed no response.

"Hannah, I spare you enough time because I want you to get to know me…I don't want you to get further and further away from me…" said Oscar seriously while staring at her.

"Our relationship is nothing but a chance acquaintance. And I don't believe one will truly fall in love at first sight."

She never believed both of them could start an affectionate relationship as soon as they just made acquaintance with each other.

"That's why I will spare you enough time till you truly believe it." Oscar insisted.

Hannah seemed to notice that Oscar still tried all means to convince her that he did fall in love with her ever since the first sight.

But since when?

Since the car crash happening in Mount Northfield?

But she didn't even capture a trace of special feelings from him at that moment.

In her memory, he appeared impassive.

She still remembered the impatient look on his face.

So…what was in his mind?

How many untold secrets had been kept under his incredibly charming face?

What was more, facing such a scheming man, how could she confessed everything to him without scruple?

Of course, she admitted that she made a selfish decision.

But she got no choice.

She couldn't afford to fail again.

The God wouldn't offer her a chance to come back to life once more.

The room fell into dead silence.

But then the frozen air started defrosting as soon as the door was pushed open.

It was Venus who rushed in with a concerned look, "Oscar, are you alright? What happened last night? If it weren't Theodore who told Thomas about it, I wouldn't have known you got seriously injured last night!"

Meanwhile, Hannah gradually composed herself.

"I am fine." Said Oscar with a casual voice.

"Fine? Stop playing tough! You're in hospital!"

"The doctor said he was free to go."

"Really?" Venus still doubted.

Meanwhile, both Thomas and Robert followed over.

"Hey Oscar, don't play tough!"

"The doctor said he was fine. Now he only needed to get back home to continue recovery." Hannah hurried to explain.

Hearing that, Robert seemed relieved.

Then he said to Oscar, "Alright, just go back home for recovery. We have plenty of servants. Don't worry. We're with you to offer you a hand."

"No thanks. Max can do the job." Oscar refused.

"You don't even wanna go home?" Robert sighed.

While from Hannah's perspective, Oscar's family had been nearly spoiling him, who never imposed anything on him in the name of a senior.

Or probably they were trying to show him respect.

The rest of the Wells seemed to apply a different attitude to Oscar.

"Oh, have you brought me some clothes to change?" asked Oscar to change the subject.

Before he slept last night, he texted Theodore to ask him to bring some clothes for both him and Hannah to change. Since Theodore didn't appear, it should be Robert and Venus who brought the clothes.

Though Theodore seemed careless and casual, he was a reliable person.

He never forgot what he was told to do.

"Of course." Venus hurried to added, "Theodore got some business to deal with this morning. So he asked Thomas to bring you the clothes. That's why we know you're here."

Meanwhile, Thomas took out the bag of clothes, "I got some random clothes from your closet. Just put them on."

"Thanks." Said Hannah.

"Don't mention it." Thomas smiled. Then he said to his parents, "Let's wait outside the door."

After that, the three of them walked out of the ward.

Watching Thomas's back, Hannah could clearly feel the friendliness from him, whom she deemed a nice gentleman.

However, it was such a pity that he got a crush on Janet.

As she looked back, she noticed Jimmy was still standing outside on the balcony.

Jimmy also noticed her gaze and he hurried to return.

"Jimmy, would you leave for a second? We gotta change our clothes."

"Yes…"

"Jimmy." Oscar suddenly stopped him.

"Yes?"

"Help me get changed." Oscar requested.

As Hannah looked at him, he still maintained a usual expression.

With her lips slightly pressed, she couldn't tell if he was still throwing a tantrum.

She got her own clothes from the bag and entered the bathroom.

Glaring at her back, Oscar huffed to himself, 'Don't even say thanks? How ungrateful!'
