Chapter 770 A Divorce Without Cause

Hannah didn't help but smile. She was envious of Susan's good attitude. Finally, the tragedy of her past life hadn't been repeated before her.

"You just said Oscar was also about to take away the Cooper Group?" Susan seemed needed time to work this out. She at least raised her voice fivefold.

Then Hannah rubbed her ears and said, "You have slow reflexes."

"I just can't believe it. He's your family, isn't he? What do you mean?"

"We got divorced."

"What?" Susan's voice grew even louder this time. She jumped straight out of her office chair. Fortunately, Hannah had expected Susan's reaction and had already moved her phone away from her ear.

"You said you're divorced? Shit, are you serious? When, and why?" Susan was agitated.

"When you were in trouble. I was about to come to be with you, but I was not well so I didn't."

"You were afraid I would feel sadder after knowing that, weren't you?" Susan said.

"Maybe." Hannah thought. And she was afraid that she couldn't be peaceful and console Susan like now before she was able to calm herself down.

"Hannah, why do you always keep these things to yourself?" Susan immediately reddened her eyes.

It was been a tough time for everyone for no reason. And Susan thought she had been unlucky enough, but she didn't expect Hannah to suffer more than her. She felt bad for Hannah since she thought someone had put a damper on her when she got to the pinnacle of life.

Susan could not help but curse Oscar for his ruthlessness. Moreover, Hannah was pregnant. Thinking of it, Susan got so cross and agitated.

"I'm not taking this as hard as you think. I just need time to accept it, and I'll be alright then." Hannah said. She could imagine how Susan devastated must be now.

"I was kind of upset about you didn't tell me the things about Henry. But you told Manuel, so I felt a little angry about it." Susan said honestly.

She didn't mention this thing just now because she felt there was a barrier between her and Hannah. But she wasn't willing to face it so she choose to run away. Susan was a forthright person that would say something out loud once she had gotten over it.

"Now you're having such a tough time, I can't even be mad at you anymore."

Hannah couldn't help but smile. She could not imagine what this simple and kind girl would be when she yielded to reality someday.

"I still want to explain even though you're not angry anymore. I hid the thing about Henry from you before because I was afraid you couldn't accept it. I was afraid you would cut off the relationship with your father when you knew what he had done back then and even listen to everything he said. I knew you thought he was the one you loved the most at that time."

Her thoughts were discovered. She might have done it if everything happened like what Hannah just said. Until now, she still felt guilty for Henry even though he had done so much to hurt her.

"So I want to help to change the relationship between you and Henry through Manuel. I thought you two would settle down once you had the baby. But I didn't expect your sudden miscarriage and Manuel would have no more illusions about you. I was about to tell you the truth, but Manuel said he wanted to make your dream come true. He wanted to help you keep an eye on the Phillips Bank, so Henry couldn't accomplish his plot. Since he couldn't own the bank, he could only be nice to you. And over time his hatred might pass away."

"Did Manuel say that?" Susan didn't quite believe that Manuel would sacrifice that much for her.

"You can never doubt how nice he's to you."

"But he has pushed me away many times!" Susan complained.

"That's because he always thought you still loved Henry."

"But he is dead now." Susan couldn't fully control her emotions.

"It doesn't mean you don't have feelings for him."

"So you're saying Manuel thinks I still have something for Henry?"

"I'm not sure. But I feel you can fight for yourself if you still like Manuel."

"You think I still have a chance?" Susan asked.

"Yes," Hannah said with certainty. She always thought that Manuel still had feelings for Susan.

If he didn't love her anymore, he wouldn't have agreed with the request that Susan still could work at the Phillips Bank after he purchased it. Manuel was unwilling to express his love. Or he just didn't want to make the first move at all because he had been hurt so many times that he wouldn't allow himself to expect anything more.

But if Susan worked hard to repair their relationship, they might get back together over time, Hannah reckoned. She still wanted them to become reconciled. In this world, Manuel was the only man she could trust for Susan to marry.

Susan kept silent for a long while. It seemed that she dared not expect too much of herself.

Hannah didn't say anything more because she knew that only those who were in love knew what it would become. The reason she could try to persuade Susan and Manuel was that she didn't experience what had happened between them. She had no idea how painful it must have been for them, so she was able to say those frank words. But to be honest, it would be very repellent to her if someone try to persuade her to marry Oscar again.

"Susan, I phoned you today because I wanted you to agree with Manuel's idea and stay at the bank," Manuel called Hannah just now and said Susan hesitated about her leaving or staying. So Hannah was here to persuade Susan. She could only feel at ease by making Susan stay with Manuel.

"I don't know anything. I'm afraid he'll cold-shoulder me in the future." Susan had self-knowledge.

"You don't think he knows how ignorant you are, do you?"

"Are you my best friend?" Susan was a little irritated.

"You don't have to worry about anything. Since he wants you to stay, you certainly can fulfil his expectation. And you two will work at the same place, which is convenient for you to heal the relationship with him." Hannah teased her.

"I have no hope," Susan said without confidence.

"Just give yourself a chance."

Susan admitted that Hannah's suggestion was beckoning but she didn't think she deserved it.

"I suppose you've agreed." Said, Hannah.

As for Susan, Hannah felt she had to help her make the decision.

Susan want to refuse but couldn't say any refusing words. So she just kelp silent and acquiesced with Hannah.

"Then I hang up."

"Hanna,"

"Uh-huh?"

"Are you alright?"

"I'm good."

"Did you divorce? Why? Politically, or Personally?"

"No one knows." Hannah smiled indifferently, "Both of these excuses will be valid if you want a divorce, and neither will be a threat if you don't."

There was no need to figure out a reason for their divorce, Hannah thought.
