Chapter 512 Conspiracy (5) Assassination

Theodore agreed with Hannah.

They set off for River Town without a minute delay, while Josh stayed in Kensbury as Hannah requested him to figure out some way to see Oscar.

Hannah believed that Oscar could provide more clues for them.

Hannah and Theodore brought Jimmy together, heading for River Town.

Manuel called to inquire about Oscar and intended to go with them to River Town. But Hannah rejected his decision.

What they were doing must be under City Hall's surveillance. The fewer of them involved, the less risk they faced. If when she was in danger, she would need an ally to help. Hannah must reduce the risk as much as possible.

Manuel was reasonable so he accepted Hannah's suggestion.

When they arrived at River Town, it was night already.

They made a straight way to Oscar's apartment there, only to replace the door had been put a seal on.

The sight of it angered Theodore.

At the thought of Oscar who was framed up, he stretched out his hand to tear off the seal.

"What are you doing?" Suddenly, a man shouted from behind.

Hannah looked back.

Two policemen walked up and stopped Theodore by saying, "Stop, stop! This is forbidden."

Theodore clenched his fists. Anger drew out the veins on his face.

Hannah pulled him back.

This was not the timing to confront the authority, which might put them in custody for picking a fight against the police. If that happened, no one could help Oscar. And that must be what their enemy wanted. Theodore came to his senses as Hannah was warning him.

"Let's go," Hannah said to Theodore.

Theodore stepped forward at first angrily. Hannah and Jimmy followed.

They settled down in a hotel nearby and they would share a room tonight.

Hannah recalled the last time when the three of them came to replace Oscar. Now they were here again.

The memory upset Hannah-the peaceful days with Oscar were so few that she could remember so easily.

"This is River Town where we are under the eyes of them. So it would be safer if we stay together." Theodore proposed.

"I agree." Hannah echoed, "But I think we have to get rid of the surveillance. Otherwise, we can do nothing."

"True." Theodore nodded, "I have arranged a secret team to support. Maybe we can know how many of them are following us tomorrow before we know how to get rid of them. Afterwards, we can kick off our plan."

"When will Oscar's case go to court?" Hannah asked.

"Josh said, regularly it might be within 3 months. For the cases like Oscar's, with enough evidence, it's most likely to be brought ahead. But this case involved the official, with more complex relations. So the investigation might be longer. So usually speaking, it was less likely to bring ahead."

"Then let's make it a month," Hannah said decisively.

Theodore watched her.

"Just in case. Our enemy is so despicable that he might have more dirty tricks waiting for us."

"OK." Theodore agreed.

He somewhat admired Hannah for her cool head, composure and insight-she had been doing things in a reasonable way while he was still a little agitated about this situation.

"Now let's take a break. And we will discuss more details and confirm our tasks tomorrow. And take actions respectively after we get rid of the surveillance."

"Get it."

Then they rested on their beds.

Hannah slept on a bed, while Theodore shared another one with Jimmy.

The light kept switched on.

Silence fell to the room.

But Hannah failed to fall asleep, as she worried a lot about Oscar, wondering if he was fine in jail.

Now she was uncertain if she was able to pull Oscar out from the mud. To be honest, she just pretended to be calm and reasonable. Anxiety and horror came to her after the silence.

In her previous life, she did help Charles in his association with the Collins, but just by offering suggestions, instead of getting in touch with them by herself. So she never saw the power of the Collins family. The only one from Collins she met was Sarah Collins, but just several times after she was detained by Charles.

She felt uneasy in the face of so many unknown things.

Hannah clenched her teeth.

Never had she thought about having some difficulties with the aristocratic families in this life.

At the start, she just got one simple goal for this life, to revenge. Each of those who ever hurt her during her previous existence must pay for what they had done to her.

Hannah realized that the higher she was, the less chance to survive. So growing her business map was the other motivation apart from revenge. And stepping into the world of aristocratic families was not her plan.

When she promised to help Oscar, she just wanted to offer suggestions. After he achieved his goals, she would retreat.

But the reality was a different story from the plan.

She became a player in the game in the end.

There was another thought came to her-they might aim at something much bigger.

This time Oscar was their target. Who would be the next? Her and the four strong families in Kensbury?

What did they want? How big was their appetite?

Charles had the nerve to fawn over the Collins with the wealth of the Cooper family, which meant that someone had coveted the wealth of the four biggest families.

That was to say, to save Oscar was to save herself. Now they were allies. It was impossible to separate them, even if they were not in love.

But she did not regret it at all.

Oscar was the most valuable treasure in her life now.

Tossing and turning for a long while, Hannah stayed awake.

Her brain ran like a nonstop machine.

She made a more detailed analysis of the existing situation, the way to collect evidence to prove Oscar's innocence, and where and whom to investigate. The room was as quiet as the air curdled.

"Hannah!" Theodore suddenly shouted in a quick and anxious voice.

Hannah was stunned for a second, sure about the upcoming danger.

"Get down under the bed!"

Hannah made a quick turn and rolled to the floor under the bed.

So did Theodore and Jimmy.

The next second, the door was kicked open. Meanwhile, Theodore switched off the light.

Someone broke in but the room was covered by darkness.

Hannah was so nervous that she could not help but shiver.

She had no idea where Theodore and Jimmy hid.

In the light beam from the corridor, she saw several men in boots step in from the door.

There were about 4 of them.

Hannah was frightened.

Did they come for assassination?

Were they going to leave everything behind?
