Chapter 763 How Long Will She Wait for Me?

What Manuel said made Hannah speechless. They thought she remained easy to beat, although she had worked that hard for so long.

"Hannah, the most important thing is life, but nothing else."

"Yes. But you guys want more."

Manuel felt embarrassed by her sarcastic remark.

"When will you take action?" Hannah asked extremely rationally.

"After Oscar is enthroned, we'll take action." Manuel replied, "In... half a month. There is half a month left, you can pacify your parents." Manuel suggested.

"So should I thank you for coming to tell me in advance, so I will have enough time to prepare everything?" Hannah said while looking into his eyes. "This is the only thing I can do, however, within my ability," Manuel said.

"Will you also take away everything of the Wells family?" Hannah asked. It was the place where Oscar grew up, would he also treat it without mercy?

"Yes." Manuel nodded, "It is not difficult to do that, since originally over half the property of the Wells family belonged to Oscar. And even if we acquire it, many important positions are still held by the Wells family. There won't be too much impact or harm. After all, Mr and Mrs Wells have been treating Oscar as their own child."

"So it will only bring harm to Susan and me." Hannah hit the nail on the head and Manuel had to nod.

"Are you also going to acquire Phillips Bank?" Hannah asked.

Wouldn't there be a tinge of forbearance?

"Yes, we will," Manuel replied.

"In my previous life, Phillips Bank was taken by Henry, and now, it's your turn," Hannah said coldly.

"I didn't expect it to end up like this." Manuel apologized, "My original idea was just to control the bank so that Henry couldn't get it. And I also wanted to force Susan to become independent to take over the bank. But it didn't go as planned. Instead, it accelerated the change of the ownership of the bank."

"Will it harm Susan?" Hannah asked.

"I'll try my best and not let her kill herself at least," Manuel promised.

"Maybe that's the only thing I can demand," Hannah murmured.

"Indeed, I can't do many things which go against principles of official business. As for many things in private, I will do anything I can." Manuel said again that she could ask for anything she wanted, as long as it didn't violate his principles.

"Take good care of Susan, I don't want her to die."

"Okay." Manuel nodded.

"And replace a way to let me leave here."

Manuel smiled helplessly, "I don't have that much power. Oscar keeps you here just to... " He couldn't go on anymore when he saw her eyes.

Hannah knew better than anyone else did. She didn't need anyone to explain anything. Such being the case, he had no more to say. Manuel smiled, "I won't say more else. I can't do it. Although it doesn't violate my principles, it is beyond my power."

"For the next half month, I want to go to my company to deal with some affairs, rather than be imprisoned here all the time."

"You mean you just want to go out?" Manuel asked.

Hannah nodded.

How ironic it was!

In her previous life, she had been imprisoned in a dark house by Charles, and subjected to all kinds of cruelty. In this life, she had the same experience but her body didn't suffer that much. It would be fine after she endured that. Time would heal a lot, including pain and emotions.

"I'll try," Manuel replied, "but the result is not guaranteed."

"Thank you."

Manuel shook his head. And it made him feel guilty and uneasy about her "thank you" at this time.

The calmer Hannah was, the worse Manuel felt. He didn't know how long Oscar would take to resolve those matters, one year, two years, ten years, or even twenty years. He couldn't even guarantee that Hannah and Oscar would resume their married life.

Manuel left without delay. He knew clearly that Hannah didn't need him for companionship or she might not even want to see them. He seemed to have self-knowledge very well.

He returned to his car and called while driving, "Oscar."

"Yeah," a low male voice came out.

"I went to meet Hannah just now."

"Have you been discharged from the hospital?" Oscar asked. He seemed trying to change the subject. Perhaps he was afraid to hear any news about Hannah because he knew that it wouldn't be good news. Manuel paused and said, "Yeah, it's just a skin injury that will heal soon."

"Your health is important."

"So is yours," Manuel said, "Theodore told me that you've been working too hard."

"I'm adjusting it."

"That's good."

There wouldn't be too much sentimentality between the two of them. A few words of concern were enough.

"You said you went to meet Hannah." Oscar took the initiative to speak, with a feeling of being afraid but wanting to know, which he had experienced.

"I told her that we want to acquire the Cooper Group, Phillips Bank and Wells Group."

"What did she say?"

"She just hopes that you can let her personally handle the follow-up affairs of the Cooper Group before the acquisition."

Oscar kept silent for a few seconds. Hannah's reply was within his expectations. She wouldn't collapse but rationally solve everything that she could not change, to minimize the harm. "Okay," Oscar agreed readily.

"Oscar..." Manuel began to say something and then hesitated.

Oscar remained silent, waiting for him to continue.

"In this situation, will you consider separating from Hannah and letting her go? What I mean is, don't force her to stay with you. Hannah is a very rational person. Later on, when she knows your helplessness, I believe she will forgive you. But if you treat her like this now, it will only push her farther and farther away from you." Manuel said these words for Hannah.

He felt that what Oscar was doing was hurting their relationship. If there were many injuries in a relationship, it would be hard to recover.

"If I let her go, she will leave me forever." Oscar did not hide his emotions from Manuel, "One year, two years, ten years... How long do you think it will take me to let go and return to Hannah? Maybe she can wait for me for one year, but will she wait for ten years?"
