Chapter 686 Coming Storm (8) Sarah's Feeling
"Do you think Oscar is trustworthy?" Melvin asked her.
"Why do you keep him around if he's not trustworthy?"
"He's more capable than I expected."
"Isn't that what you need from him?"
"You are still defending him." Melvin looked at her as if he wanted to see something different from her face.
"What else can I do if I don't speak for him?" Hannah asked, "At least, he hasn't done anything to make me give up on him completely so far."
"Haven't you given up when he let you come here?"
"At least I know he was forced to do so."
"Hannah, you are really a rational woman," Melvin commented.
"Mr Balderston, you want to know from me what kind of person Oscar is. You won't believe it no matter what I say. Why bother?"
Hannah knew his purpose. Oscar was about to make moves. Melvin was afraid of his cheating, so he wanted to get some information from her. But since he was suspicious, he couldn't trust anyone. That was his contradiction. That was also the biggest reason why the Balderston family had been scheming secretly for so many years but had not acted yet.
Melvin was not decisive enough. But it was understandable. In his position, if he lost one time, he would lose forever, so he should be cautious though it made him less domineering and statesmanlike. Compared with him, Oscar appeared more confident.
Hannah did not expect that Oscar would start the war in such a short time. It was at least 10 years later in her last life.
Melvin left seeing that he didn't get any useful information from her. After he left, Hannah was relieved. She was not as cold as she showed. She was terrified every day here and didn't know how much living space Oscar could give her.
A week later, it was Rowan's youngest daughter, Lillian Collins's twentieth birthday. A few relatives of the Collins family and their friends came to dinner.
Oscar did not receive the news that the Balderston family would be invited today. As he expected, the Collins family would not start on this day because they were afraid that he would conspire with Melvin against them.
After he went into the house, Rowan took him to his study. There were Mathew and Sarah, who seemed to be Rowan's helpers.
"Oscar, you must wonder why I didn't invite the Balderston family." Said Rowan.
"I know you must have your consideration," Oscar said sternly and calmly.
Rowan was a bit appreciative of Oscar's calm personality. He said, "It's urgent for me. Don't act rashly for the time being."
"OK." Oscar didn't say anything more.
"As for your wife," Rowan looked at him and said, "your wife is safe as long as I don't make a move. Don't worry. If Melvin wants to use me, your wife is fine."
"Yes."
"It's my daughter's twentieth birthday. I won't talk about anything else. I don't want you to think too much about inviting you to the birthday party. Take it easy today. I treat you as my man." "Thank you for your trust, Mr Collins."
"You can go out. All the people who come today are close friends of mine. It's good for you to know them."
After Oscar left, Rowan's countenance changed and he said coldly, "He is calm."
"So the Balderston family uses him to suppress us," Mathew commented.
"They made a wrong decision. Oscar seems to be respectful, but he has great ambition. He also has strong self-esteem. It is Melvin's biggest failure that he violated Oscar's bottom line." Rowan smiled insidiously.
"We may not be able to control Oscar." Mathew said, "When we start to take action against the Balderstons that day, we have to replace someone to take the blame to kill Melvin, and also a reason to make Oscar take the blame, otherwise, we will have to bear suspicion!"
"That's the reason why I asked him to come here today."
"Do you have any plans?"
"You will know later."
"OK."
Sarah listened to the conversation between her father and her brother and looked out.
She sneered. She wanted Oscar and Hannah to both die. It made her extremely excited to think that Hannah would also experience the pain of losing her baby.
The birthday party was simple and not many people came.
Oscar sat in the corner and didn't socialize. He knew clearly that the Collins family would suspect him if he acted too much. He could only let them feel that he was only helping the Collins family wholeheartedly and then teaching the Balderston family a lesson. As for his development ambition, it was not as big as they think.
He drank champagne and saw Sarah coming over.
Oscar put down the glass and greeted respectfully, "Miss Collins,"
Sarah nodded and seemed arrogant.
"I didn't expect we would cooperate one day." Sarah laughed sarcastically, "I should've married you instead of that crazy waste Charles if I knew you had such ability."
Oscar remained silent.
Sarah's countenance slightly changed and was unhappy with Oscar's indifference to her.
"You like Hannah a lot?"
"She's my wife." Oscar answered.
"Charles wouldn't fall to that end if he loved me like the way you loved Hannah."
"He didn't know how to cherish."
"You seem to keep a distance from me on purpose." Sarah was not happy.
It was true that she was not as pretty and hot as Hannah, but she was so noble that most of the men in Northfield were eager to please her. Only Oscar had always been lukewarm to her. Every time they met, he didn't look at her. Did he really have no interest in her? Or was he playing cat and mouse with her?
