Chapter 1113 Face to Face
"I believe in you, Mr Commander," Carol affirmed. "To prevent any accidents, I'll provide some help to save Hannah. But ultimately, I hope you will take responsibility for this. To be blunt, I don't want Doyle to hate me."
"Okay," Oscar agreed without hesitation. He didn't even consider ruining Doyle and Carol's relationship.
"I'm planning on having Besse call Doyle tonight and ask him out. You can use that time to go to Doyle's villa and take Hannah away." "Alright,"
"It's up to you tonight," Carol said again.
After hanging up the phone, Oscar turned to Theodore and said, "We're going in tonight to save Hannah."
"Okay," Theodore replied. "I've arranged a plane at the airport for us once we have Hannah so we can leave right away."
Oscar nodded. He stood up and walked towards the balcony outside. Taking out a cigarette, he lit it up. Theodore joined him after finishing his arrangements and also lit a cigarette.
Tonight, either Oscar was going to save Hannah or completely let go of her, Theodore wasn't sure which one it would be.
Oscar probably didn't know either.
At nightfall, Oscar left the hotel because Doyle had already left as well. He went with Theodore to Queen Carol's designated villa, where guards were stationed outside with weapons in hand. Brute force wouldn't work here. Even though Queen Carol had given Oscar an army of 20 men, he still didn't want things to get too out of hand.
Observing for a while, Oscar said, "I'll jump over from that wall."
Theodore nodded. Before that, Carol had given them a blueprint of the villa so they knew how best not to get caught easily when entering it. Oscar led Theodore around towards another side while other people were hiding around waiting for their signal.
As they reached their destination point, Oscar gave Theodore an eye signal. The latter then crouched down, with all his might, Oscar stepped onto Theodore's back and used him like a springboard before leaping high into the air and landing on top of one large tree branch nearby. He tightly hugged its trunk while quickly climbing upwards until he was hidden within its branches. The tree concealed him from view by those guards patrolling below.
Only after making sure there weren't any more soldiers passing by did Oscar finally jump down from his perch among leaves. He followed through with their plan and walked stealthily inside the mansion, where some servants were still busy working away.
Oscar had been hiding and evading until he finally arrived at the staircase. He quickly ran up to the second floor, where Hannah was supposed to be. A servant seemed to have heard some noise, as he turned his head towards the stairs but found nothing unusual. Thinking that he might have been overly cautious, he went back to his own business.
Oscar carefully walked along the corridor, checking each room one by one until he finally saw Hannah sitting on a chaise lounge in one of them with a servant attending to her while she drank tea.
As soon as the maid saw Oscar, she was about to scream when suddenly Hannah covered her mouth tightly. The startled servant looked at Oscar approaching her and then felt a sharp pain in her neck before passing out immediately.
Hannah was still trembling with fear when she turned around and saw Oscar standing there looking at her intently. She never expected him to show up here or even care about what happened between her and Doyle, which made its way back to Northfield.
But now here they were face-to-face with so many questions left unanswered that neither of them wanted or dared ask right now. All Hannah wanted was just to leave this place with Oscar without any further delay.
"Are you here to take me away?" She asked calmly without any excitement or rejection in her tone as if talking casually with an ordinary person.
"If you're willing," replied Oscar nodding his head slightly, "I'll take you away."
"Let's go," said Hannah without expressing whether she agreed or not but showed it through action instead.
"We'll jump out of the window."
Hannah didn't object either since jumping off seemed like their best bet right now, given their circumstances. They both quickly made their way outside onto a balcony where they stood ready for action. "I'll go first!" said Oscar pointing towards a spot below. "You jump after me, I'll catch you!"
"Okay." Replied Hannah nodding eagerly.
Just then someone called out from outside, "Your Highness!"
Hannah's heart skipped a beat upon hearing the voice. Oscar heard it too. How could Doyle return so soon?
"You go ahead!" Hannah said urgently before dashing back into her room. If she was not in the room, Doyle would ask the servants to replace her. In that case, Oscar would be caught too. She could only stall time with Doyle at this point.
Hannah returned to her room and quickly dragged the unconscious maid into the bathroom. After doing so, she quickly undressed and rinsed herself with cold water before putting on a bathrobe. As she opened the bathroom door, Doyle appeared in the room.
Doyle stared at her closely, noticing that she had just finished showering. At that moment, he felt slightly relieved. He had originally planned to meet up with Besse tonight to explain things between them and minimize any hurt feelings he might have caused her. However, after leaving the villa, he couldn't shake off his unease as if something was going to happen.
He quickly made his way back here but didn't notice anything unusual upon returning or seeing Hannah acting differently than usual. But she still didn't even spare him a glance when he appeared in front of her.
Hannah ignored him and walked straight to her bed.
Doyle thought about leaving but then noticed that one of the floor-to-ceiling windows was open.
"Why is the window open?" He felt a slight breeze coming through it.
With that said, Doyle walked to the balcony.
Hannah worried that Oscar might still be around somewhere nearby. So she tried to stop him, "Doyle, isn't your leg injured?"
He stopped in his tracks and looked down at his right leg. Despite this pain though, Doyle got up from his wheelchair once he arrived back at the villa because he was nervous about something and strode to Hannah's room directly. Only then did it dawn on him how much pain there was present within himself all along.
"I'll go close the window," Hannah said as she got off her bed and walked towards the balcony area.
