Chapter 605 His Judgement
"When making a choice, my family is my first consideration. But no way, it's something I've been taught since childhood and hard to change. So I've been sitting tight, but I've been looking into him for a long time and watching him and you secretly. I know you think highly of him so you give him a lot of warmth that he never felt as a member of Man of Sacrifice. And this also makes me believe that he won't kill you if he doesn't have to." Oscar began to explain everything he had done last night.
Lowering her eyes, Hannah knew that Oscar was a very rational person so that was his judgment and that she should have understood him. At the thought of last night, she kept the words that were going to come out to herself.
"Hannah, Believe it or not, the first time he put a gun to your head and threatened me to spit out my real identity, I knew his gun had no bullets. Those families won't use the life of a woman to threaten a man who can make great things. Because in their cruel and bloody ways, they won't feel that affection can threaten me anyway. They only care about power and will do anything to get it. So when Tan pulled a gun on you last night, it was his personal decision. He just chose the way he felt would solve the problem the quickest and minimize unnecessary bloodshed."
Hannah wondered if a man who wanted to kill her would be looking out for her.
And she didn't want to feel pity for him at all.
"Since it was just his personal decision, Tan wouldn't dare kill you without the family's permission. Although I was betting, in my mind my odds were 90 per cent when he fired his first shot last night." "If I were that 10 per cent... Would you feel guilty for me?"
"Yes, I would," Oscar answered.
Hannah's eyes slightly quivered.
"I even thought for an instant that if you died, I would die with you after I finished my mission."
Hannah stared at him.
"Hannah, I've never lied to you." Oscar said with earnest eyes, "I will choose not to say things, but I will never lie to you."
Hannah nodded silently. She seemed to firmly trust in him no matter what happened. Although she did lose heart because of him for a moment last night.
"Then Tan asked me to fight Jimmy, which is what these families ordered him to do. They wanted him to see if I was a member of the Dark Guard from my fights. Fortunately, before I decided to join them, I thought this might happen. After all, they can't just let someone in, and they won't trust anyone until his background was found out. So I would practice fighting with Jimmy in my spare time, and it took him a long time to learn my punching patterns. So if I do fight with Jimmy, Tan will think I'm at a disadvantage."
"I was just gonna bluff my way through it, but then they turned on you." A grim expression came over Oscar's face.
Hannah knew he was talking about Tan trying to kill her at the end.
"I had no choice but to kill him, which once again showed you my bloody and cruel side. I'm afraid you'd hate me."
Hannah bit her lip.
She did replace herself rejecting him yesterday. But even so, she still had a glimmer of hope for him. So she followed him to this place.
"What about your parents?" Hannah suddenly averted the subject because now she didn't want to talk about it with Oscar. She felt she needed some time to process her change of mood.
"They are dead," Oscar said these words lightly.
Startled, she was just wondering why she only saw his brother but not his parents. And Oscar didn't say anything about his parents, so she thought they were still alive.
"I'm sorry." Hannah felt sort of sad.
"It's been many years." Oscar said in a peaceful voice, "I was 12 or 13, and my brother was four years younger than me, like 9. During that time, my family acted a little more aggressively to expand their power and was found out by the aristocratic families. Besides, when my father and aunt died, their bodies didn't turn up, so there was always tension in these families and they would kill a lot of people if something happened. To protect my brother and me, my parents died purposely at their hands."
"When my parents died, their bodies were floating on the sea for a long, long time. They utilized their bodies to lure the rest of the royal Wells family into showing up. So for our family's plan, the loyalists, including my aunt and Laird, chose to ignore their bodies, leaving them to rot and sink to the bottom of the sea."
Hannah didn't know how powerful his heart was that he could tell this story so calmly and peacefully.
"My parents are dead, so their concerns about the royal Wells family have diminished. But lately, we've been doing a lot of unscrupulous things to get me into these families, which has aroused their suspicion again. After all, they can't safely enjoy what's been cruelly plundered from others, so they are always on guard. But so far they haven't got anything on me, so now they're still wondering if the royal Wells has any left members." Oscar was analyzing the present situation, "Their ambiguous attitude is working in my favour so I have to seize the moment and act."
"But you still killed Tan, they will suspect you," Hannah said with concern.
"Yes, so I need you to help me."
"How?" Hannah was surprised, for she felt she had no value in their world.
"Once they believe that I love you enough to kill someone for you, they'll believe I'm innocent. So now we need to do our best to show our love to others. The best way is to..."
Hannah felt he had an ulterior motive.
"You're pregnant with my child, and I go out of my way to kill for my wife and child. That's a good reason."
Hannah was speechless, wondering if he was crazy about having a baby.
"Unfortunately, you didn't get pregnant. " Oscar sighed lightly.
No matter what they were talking about, this guy always had an inappropriate obsession with his teasing words, and he made her seem the one to blame, Hannah thought.
