Chapter 824 Oscar's Return

Manuel was waiting for her outside the detention centre. As soon as Hannah walked out of the gate, he walked over and soon noticed the scratch on her neck.

He paused for seconds. Meanwhile, Hannah noticed what he had seen.

"I am fine."

However, he could see blood oozing out of the scratch, which looked too conspicuous to ignore. Hannah walked past him and got into the car. Then he drove her home. Both of them remained silent. Manuel had no idea how to start a conversation. Neither did Hannah intend to speak. As the car parked outside the manor, Manuel got off and was about to walk her in.

"No, thanks. You may get back to your own business." Said Hannah.

Manuel nodded, "Okay, I have called a doctor over to check the scratch on your neck."

"Mhm." Hannah didn't refuse this time.

While watching her back, he then returned to the car. Then he texted Oscar, "I have driven Hannah back to the villa. When will you be back?" "Tonight." Oscar texted back.

"Maybe you gotta talk to her first..." while typing, he couldn't help hesitating.

Finally, he deleted what he typed. Then he texted "okay" as a simple response to end the message.

As Hannah walked into the lobby, Max was stunned when noticing the scratch, "Ms Cooper, what happened to your neck?"

"I am fine. A doctor will come later to check for me." Said Hannah casually.

"Okay." Noticing that she didn't intend to explain, Max was wise enough to know when to stop asking.

A few minutes later, a doctor hurried inside. While carefully tending the scratch, he suggested, "Ms Cooper, please keep it dry for a few days in case of infection. Though the scratch didn't cut deep, there could still be bacteria brewing. Now I have it disinfected. As the temperature has been mounting these days, I won't bandage your neck. Please remember to apply ointment to it three times a day. It should recover within a week. Ms Cooper, do you need me to apply the ointment for you for the rest of the time or..."

"Don't bother. Max will do the job."

"Right. If you notice any fester, please let me know."

"Thank you."

The doctor replied with a smile. Then he left.

Hannah returned to her room to rest. It had been a long time since she walked out of the house last time. She even felt like the air outside smelt strange to her. She couldn't help wondering if she no longer bore any desire for the world outside after being grounded for long. Soon, she fell into a sound sleep.

When she opened her eyes once again, she had no idea what time it was. It might probably be late at night, she supposed. No wonder she felt like starving. Max seldom came to wake her up for dinner. He wouldn't disturb her until she woke up herself. Then Max would serve her dinner as soon as possible.

She tossed around and was about to get up. But then she noticed something weird-someone familiar was sitting on the bedside.

It was Oscar.

He was back.

Meanwhile, Oscar noticed that as soon as she moved a bit.

"You got enough sleep?" he turned around to look at her.

Hannah nodded to get up. After getting pregnant for six months, she found it a bit inconvenient to move. Oscar helped her up, which she didn't refuse.

"Wanna go to the bathroom?" asked Oscar tenderly.

"I can do it myself." Said Hannah. Then she could tell his grip on her arm seemed to be frozen.

"Well, just take me there." She changed her mind.

He struggled to hold back his excitement. Then he supported her into the bathroom.

Leaning against the wall, he was waiting outside the door. As soon as he returned, he came to her side and stayed. She was in a sound sleep for hours, during which she didn't even notice his arrival. He simply fixed his eyes on her sleeping face. There were a few times when he wanted to wake her up. But still, he dropped this idea again and again. He did cherish the moment when she was in sound sleep. Only at this moment would she drop her alert against Oscar.

After washing up herself, Hannah opened the door. She managed to cover up her disgust against him at the very moment when she opened her eyes. And of course, Oscar pretended not to notice that. "You return a few days earlier than the fixed schedule?" she tried to say something to break the ice.

"Five days earlier. The schedule is tight on time. And I managed to save a few days to return home. For the coming five days, I can be here with you." "Mhm."

She showed neither disgust nor happiness. They felt like a common couple living together for decades. But ridiculously, they had divorced.

Both of them went downstairs together.

It was 11:00 PM.

What a long sleep!

However, as soon as she stepped downstairs, she saw Lillian sitting on the couch, she greeted them with a friendly smile, "Hey, Oscar, Hannah! You guys got enough sleep?"

Hannah responded with silence.

At the same time, Oscar simply nodded.

What a careless idiot, Hannah complained to herself. Didn't he worry if there would be a fierce conflict between the two ladies? But obviously, Oscar got everything under control. No conflict nor quarrel would occur between Hannah and Lillian. What was more, they would appear quite friendly to each other.

"Both of you haven't had dinner yet, right?" Lillian stood up from the couch. Then she walked over to both of them.

"Hey, slow down your pace." Oscar frowned.

Lillian then replied with a smile, "Oh, I am sorry. I gotta say the baby behaves himself so well that I almost forget about the pregnancy. But it must be tough to go through the morning sickness in the first three months, right?"

"Just...be careful," Oscar repeated.

"Alright." Lilian nodded.

Hannah did nothing but watch. She didn't cut in. Nor did she show any emotion. Driven by hunger, she headed to the dining room. Max had prepared dinner as soon as she woke up. Both Oscar and Lillian took their seats next to the table.

Lillian then explained, "Well, the dishes look too delicious to refuse. So I have stuffed my stomach already. I gotta learn to control my appetite before I grow too much weight."

"I am glad you love the dishes." Max felt flattered.

"Yeah, I love it. I still remember how crazily I miss your dishes when I was with Oscar abroad. Now I finally suffice myself." Said Lillian.

Indeed, she gulped down a lot of food just now. Unlike those being pretentious, Lillian looked like a girl with a genuine heart. Greatly flattered, Max hurried to leave with an excuse. Only the three of them were staying at the dining table.
