Chapter 428 An Opportunity

Not until then did Hannah recollect herself. She soon looked away with a blushed face.

But Oscar didn't seem to care. He turned to look at Theodore, "Hey, don't be jealous. You are getting married soon."

"My marriage is different from yours. Stop teasing me and stop your PDA. I gotta fill myself with liquor and you with water." Oscar didn't refuse. Then he continued to drink with Theodore.

Theodore completely indulged in drinking. Oh, perhaps he was venting out his grievance.

Manuel also joined in to drink, but not as much as Theodore did. However, he still gulped down quite a lot of liquor. As a poor drinker, he might probably want to get himself drunk as well. Hannah didn't bear to watch him drinking anymore. She walked over to him, "Manuel, don't get yourself drunk. You're not like Theodore. I believe he will be fine even if he drinks alone." "I am not drinking for him, but for myself."

"But Susan and you..."

"We separated." Said Manuel frankly.

"Actually, I want to convince her to live with you." Sighed Hannah.

"I know. And you have tried." Manuel tried to reply in an easy tone so as to remind her to stop.

Of course, Hannah could tell what he meant. She held back what she was going to say. Actually, she knew the key to maintaining the marriage between them was to please Susan. She gotta talk to Susan again.

"Time to return to Oscar." Manuel reminded her.

Hannah frowned.

"I am afraid he will be jealous. I know what he looks like when driven by jealousy. It's horrible." Said Manuel.

"Have you seen that before?"

"Yes."

"Which girl his jealousy was for?" Hannah somehow felt a bit unhappy.

"Guess."

"He has slept with so many girls. I can't tell whom she would be."

"Think it over, I bet you can tell."

Hannah simply replied with a glare.

"Stop glaring at me. I am afraid Oscar is gonna kill me alive."

He must be exaggerating, she supposed.

But still, Hannah walked away.

Manuel breathed out a sigh of relief.

He still remembered Oscar killed a lion with bare hands after accidentally seeing Charles kissing Hannah. Whenever he recalled that moment, he couldn't help shivering.

As soon as Hannah returned to Oscar's side, he wrapped her in his arms while continuing to drink with Theodore. He refused to let go of her regardless of Theodore's continuous complaints. They didn't stop drinking until midnight.

Theodore was drunk. Every time he got out of the restroom, he was literally staggering. So was Manuel. He could barely stand still with the crutch. It was Oscar who took him into the restroom. Those who wanna get drunk had both been drunk.

It was time to end the party.

Oscar called over a few staff members in the nightclub to escort Theodore and Manuel out of the box.

Theodore was still yelling for more. But he was too drunk to break free himself. Both he and Manuel were taken into a car specifically for them.

Hannah suggested she should help to take Manuel home. But Oscar stopped her, saying that the chauffeur would help to take him upstairs.

Hannah got speechless. He didn't even seem to care about his own cousin.

But still, Hannah did as Oscar insisted. Both of them got into the car where Jimmy was waiting and returned home.

Theodore and Manuel were both sent home with the help of the club.

Inside the car, Hannah seemed preoccupied.

"Still worried about Manuel? Come on, with my arrangement, I am willing to vouch for his security. I know the responsibility would be too heavy for me to burden if any accident were to happen to him again." Said Oscar firmly.

"No, that's not what worries me." Hannah shook her head.

Of course, she trusted Oscar, who never made any decision until he had fully considered it. She was thinking if she should do something to bring Susan and Manuel together. Now that Manuel was drunk, it would be an opportunity.

Time to take action.

So Hannah made a call to Susan. Within a second, Susan answered it. Obviously, she still stayed awake.

"Why haven't you slept yet? Come on, be nice to yourself. You are still in recovery from the miscarriage." Hannah couldn't help reproaching her as if she were talking to a naughty kid who never learned to look after herself.

"Why are you calling so late? Aren't you afraid you would wake me up in sleep? You are just calling to check if I have slept?" Susan asked rhetorically.

"Stop it. But you'd better learn to take care of yourself."

"Alright, alright. I will go to bed as soon as the game is finished." Susan replied perfunctorily.

Of course, she knew how much Hannah cared about her.

"Hey, you gotta stay awake for a little longer. I got something to tell you." Said Hannah frankly.

Susan got speechless. Just a moment ago, she told her to sleep early. But now she required her to stay awake? What was wrong with her?

"Manuel got drunk. Go to his house to pick him up. He can't go home himself." Hannah said.

Hearing that, Susan felt a bit of worry within a second. But soon, she returned to be indifferent, "Not my concern. We have separated. And I am gonna divorce him. After that, everything will be over. Why should I worry about him?"

"Have you already divorced?" Hannah questioned.

"Not yet. But it's only a matter of time."

"I mean right now!"

Susan pouted.

"Since you haven't divorced, you are still a couple. You both have the duty to look after each other. If anything bad happens to him, you will be responsible!" "Hannah, don't try to push me. Manuel is a grown man. He should be responsible for himself."

"Are you going or not?" asked Hannah.

Finally, Susan compromised, just like most of the time when Hannah reasoned with her.

"Alight, alright. I am going there! I hate you for blaming me for being irresponsible. What's more, it's the last few days before my divorce." Susan replied carelessly. "Remember to keep yourself warm. You don't wanna catch a cold, do you?" Hannah kindly reminded her.

"Okay."

Hannah didn't hang up until she finished a few suggestions for her. Then she looked at Oscar, "Call the chauffeur to take Manuel upstairs and wait for Susan. Hurry!"
