After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire -
Chapter 378 A Sad Parting
Looking at Hannah's upset face, Oscar listened to her quietly, being aware that it was reasonable for her to be sentimental as she was unsure about their future.
"I don't mean anything. It's just that I feel like I've had a great week and my life has never been so carefree, relaxing, and beautiful. Staying away from fame and wealth, I feel at peace." Hannah said in sorrow, "I'm just a little sad for such a period ends so quickly."
Oscar held her in his arms, whispering in her ear, word for word, like a promise, "We will not become estranged."
Hannah bit her lip lightly.
"All I do is for us to get closer." Oscar said while hugging her hard, "I promise."
Knowing nothing last forever, she was still willing to trust him. The two of them were clinging to each other for quite a long time.
At 12 o'clock, Oscar took Hannah's luggage and set off to send her to the airport, while holding her hand all the way. Jimmy was waiting for them at the entrance of the living quarters, and the three of them took a cab together to the airport.
Looking at the unfamiliar streets of River Town, the sadness of parting was getting stronger.
When they arrived at the airport, Oscar accompanied Hannah to change her boarding pass. Only when she entered the security check, Oscar handed it to her. Hannah took it without a word, and the two just looked at each other.
Slowly, Hannah turned around and left with Jimmy, without saying a word. Because she was afraid that if she opened her mouth, her tears would flow.
In the aisle leading to the first-class cabin, she couldn't help but turn around and saw Oscar standing there, watching.
Many people came to and fro at the airport. Hannah saw Oscar's tall silhouette and somehow felt that Oscar was lonely, lonely of being left behind. Hannah's throat moved slightly, and for some reason, she always had a feeling that she had abandoned him once. It was a strange feeling of deja vu.
She suddenly waved her hand at Oscar, who smiled lightly and lifted his hand to wave goodbye.
"Oscar, I'll see you in Kensbury City." Hannah called aloud.
"You will." Oscar said.
Hannah's vision was more and more blurred and she finally understood why Oscar always left in the early morning before she woke up. The parting was unbearable. Hannah gritted her teeth, adjusted her feelings, and forced herself to walk in. It was not the last time they met, but the brief separation was killing her.
She almost forgot her feelings for Charles in her last life. What was left in her mind was only a notion that she did love him once, but she could not remember how that felt at that moment. Also, she could not remember if she was also reluctant to leave when she and Charles parted. All in her mind was about Oscar now.
Probably it could be called oblivion, which meant digging one person out of her heart and letting another one live in there. Then the one filled her heart to the brim, sparing no room for any others. Hannah looked down and saw a message pop up on her phone screen. It was a voice message from Oscar, "I love you, my darling."
Next to Hannah, Jimmy also heard Oscar's voice. He had never heard Oscar be so gentle in those years when he worked for him. And Jimmy almost forgot that Oscar used to be a bloody monster in that dark world. Jimmy didn't know if the change in Oscar was good or not, but he knew that he did smile more.
Hannah replied him with a voice message, "Me too."
She loved him, a thousand times.
After a five-hour flight, they went back to the familiar Kensbury City. Being back in the old place, Hannah felt like something was missing. It was Oscar who she missed.
They walked out of the airport and as soon as they got into the car, Hannah picked up the phone. Though they were back, she should get ready to fight and days in River Town would probably be the best memory in her life.
She dialed a number.
"Hi, Hannah," she heard Manuel's low, gentle voice.
"Are you busy?" Hannah asked.
"Not really." Manuel answered, "Susan's in the shower."
"Without your help?" Hannah laughed as if she saw Manuel flush.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"Can you help me hack into Sawyer Group's finance department?" Hannah asked.
"You want to know their financial expenses?"
"I mainly want to know if they've started allocating funds for investment yet. I mean the South Bay New Town project."
"I saw it on the news they are active in the infrastructure construction of the town." Manuel thought for a moment and said, "Phillips Bank allocated money to Sawyer Group on Thursday. As the money is in place, they should have already been investing in construction if nothing is wrong. I'll give you an accurate answer later."
"Don't be hurry, just give me it tomorrow. Sleep early." Hannah teased him deliberately, "Sleep early with Susan."
"So I won't disturb you, I..." Before Hannah finished, she heard Susan's voice. She took the phone from Manuel. "Hannah, why didn't you call me but him first when you came back?"
Hannah could not understand what the fuss was about and said, "I got something to talk with him."
"What?"
"Something about work."
"You sure he can help with anything about work? He is unable and never goes out to work. What the hell can he help?" Susan said with contempt.
Hannah didn't know what to say. She thought to herself that Manuel was right next to her. How could Susan be so candid?
"Susan," Hannah said seriously, "I think since you have so much time now, you can get to know your husband."
"Who's my husband?" Susan was angry about the title.
"You don't know him at all."
"I've said he's not my husband!" Susan was angry.
"Trust me, you'll replace a new world."
"No!" Susan refused.
"Anyway, pay more attention to him."
"Hannah..."
"That's it. I just got off the plane and I'm a little tired. I'll call you." Hannah hung up the phone because she wanted to save time for Susan to know Manuel! As long as Susan knew him, she would fall in love with him. At least, given the current situation, Susan's tragedy in her last life would not happen again!
