Chapter 650 An Overt Secret

A fancy dinner was ready on the table. Night breeze stroked their faces. The nice weather and beautiful scenery, the good wine and the delicious food made it a remarkable day.

"At first, I thought Hannah is nothing but a trophy wife. Later, I found she was also a very tough and ambitious businesswoman. But now it surprises me that she's also a thoughtful woman who can take good care of family affairs. Oscar, you lucky dog!" said Theodore.

Oscar smiled. Finally, Theodore said something nice that pleased him.

Hannah was shy. Although she had been constantly praised since she was little, and had won a lot of approval and applause in the business circle, she was still shy to be praised by Theodore. She thought she was a nobody when compared with any of them.

"Indeed, Oscar has better taste than someone. How come, Hannah and Susan, are so different?" Theodore flattered Hannah. Probably, he was very unhappy with the love relationship between Manuel and Susan.

Manuel was at a loss for words.

"Susan Phillips?" Cian got curious and cut in.

"Gosh! Even you know it!"

"Of course. How could I not know the girl who Manuel is crazy about." Said Cian.

Manuel simply remained silent no matter what they said.

"Then, do you know Manuel has been dumped like trash?"

"Really? Tell me!" Cian got excited. He was so curious that he looked like any other big boy.

Hannah wondered if Cian was the real royal heir, who was bearing a blood feud.

"Don't doubt him." Oscar noticed Hannah's confusion and whispered in her ear.

Hannah came back to reality but didn't join them in the gossip.

Susan was her best friend and she just couldn't talk behind her back. But she wasn't partial to Susan as well when it came to her relationship with Manuel. She just listened and said nothing. "Alright now, today is Oscar's birthday. Let's get back to the topic! To Oscar!" proposed Manuel. Maybe he couldn't stand the gossip any more.

Everyone raised their wine glasses to drink, including Hannah.

"No wine." Oscar stopped her.

"It's grape juice." Retorted Hannah.

"Have water instead." Said Oscar.

"Oscar!"

"It's my birthday!"

Hannah thought he was always so bossy even when it wasn't his birthday. They argued as the others watched them as if they were enjoying a show. "Hannah, are you pregnant?" Theodore cut to the chase.

Oscar's face turned sulky.

"Drop the act. I've seen it through." Said Theodore confidently.

Oscar looked bad but Theodore didn't give a shit.

"No fuss! Take it easy. Little Bunny has been there. See? My son is healthy and strong."

"No fuss? How did you know what on earth she has been through? You didn't care about your pregnant wife. Who are you to talk to!" Oscar retorted.

Theodore heard it and was about to blow his top.

Hannah burst into laughter and found it very amusing that Oscar had shut Theodore down each time.

"Is that true, Hannah?" Cian asked out of curiosity.

Hannah nodded.

Oscar pursed his lips and knew he couldn't keep it from them any more.

"Congratulations!" Cian said with a big smile, "We'll have a new family member."

Hannah looked at his smiling face and felt empathetic for him. Maybe they'd been alone for too long.

"Is it a boy or a girl? If it's a girl, she must be a perfect 10 since her parents are so good-looking. If it's a boy, he must be a dreamboat. Maybe he'll be the little Oscar..."

"It's a girl." Oscar interrupted.

"How did you know?" asked Cian.

"I put the baby into her. Of course, I know it."

Hannah was speechless, wondering if he could stop being so full of himself.

"Don't tell others," Oscar said seriously.

Theodore didn't think so. To him, having babies was one of the most common things and there was nothing to be fussy about.

They calmed down and began pigging out again. It wasn't easy for Theodore to hang out, so he was going to drink like a fish. He challenged Manuel, and the latter got drunk soon. To his surprise, Cian was neck to neck with him.

"Are you not going to stop Cian?" Hannah pulled Oscar softly and thought Cian's health meant a lot to them.

"No worries. He's more reasonable than any of us."

Hannah looked at Cian and couldn't see that.

After three rounds, Theodore got slightly drunk. He raised the wine glass generously and said, "It's a big day! It's Oscar's birthday. Cian is here. Hannah is pregnant. Let's get hammered! Cheers..." Suddenly, Theodore screamed out of pain as someone was pulling his ear. Everyone fixed their eyes on Laird, who was in a temper. Hannah had imagined he would be here because Manuel had reminded her. She hid behind Oscar, and Oscar smiled lightly, "Scared now?"

Indeed, she wasn't scared but she just didn't want to argue with the seniors.

"Ouch! Easy easy! Dad! You're pulling my ear off." Screamed Theodore.

Where there was Theodore, there was fun. Laird let go of him and went straight to Cian without looking at him.

"Master Cian, let me drive you back." Said Laird respectfully.

Cian put down the wine glass calmly. He was sober and didn't complain at all. He simply stood up and left, as if he had been used to it.

Oscar caught up with him. Laird wanted to say something but bit it back in the end. Hannah saw Oscar leaving with Cian and Laird following behind them. Manuel was stoned and lying on the table. He suddenly looked up towards them and went back to sleep.

"Hope Cian can be happier in the future." Murmured Theodore.

Hannah blinked her eyes slightly. She couldn't see Cian was unhappy if she didn't hear it out from them. She wondered how much it took to hide his feelings so perfectly well.
