Chapter 885 Theodore's Remind
Nothing else happened when they slept on the same bed that night. As usual, Hannah woke up several times to feed the baby during the night. Most of the time, Oscar woke up along with her. Sometimes, Hannah was too sleepy to keep her eyes open. So, Oscar held the baby for her, so that she could sleep while feeding the baby.
Michelle woke up a lot during the night to check on the baby and saw Hannah feeding the baby while Oscar helping around. Several times, she had tried to interrupt them but managed to stop herself. She thought they could form a happy family if Oscar wasn't the chief commander of the country now. What a pity!
Oscar left on the third day after spending two days in the Cooper manor, where he was not welcomed. Hannah walked him to the gate with the baby in her arms. Oscar looked at the baby and couldn't bear to part from his son.
"Wanna hold him again?" asked Hannah.
Oscar nodded. He carried the baby and smiled gently, "Hey, little one, Dad will come to see you again soon. Be a good boy. Stay with mom, grandma, grandpa and your great-grandma, OK?"
The baby was so adorable while staring at him as if he was listening to Oscar carefully.
"Eat well. Sleep well." Saying it, Oscar bent down to kiss the baby on his cheek.
The baby was looking at him with his big bright eyes. What a doll!
"Dad must go now. Bye, Sal." Said Oscar.
The baby's full name was Salem Wells, and his nickname was Sal.
Oscar gave Salem back to Hannah. He grabbed it randomly and happened to seize Oscar's sleeve. Oscar was frozen for one second. It looked like the baby didn't want Oscar to leave. Hannah saw that as well. She pursed her lips and took Salem's hand off his sleeve. Oscar felt Salem had taken his heart away. It was killing him to say goodbye.
"Time to go. Everyone is waiting for you." Said Hannah.
Oscar held back his feelings and said with concern. "Take care. Let the babysitter do her job. okay?"
"I will," Hannah said with a smile.
Oscar nodded but stood still. He fixed his eyes on Hannah and Salem, telling himself that it was time to go, but couldn't make up his mind to. He might be gone for ten days or longer.
"I'll bring Sal to the Capital when he's older." Said Hannah, who had read his mind.
Oscar was stunned and looked at her unbelievably.
"You can't travel back and forth between two cities all time like this. I'll bring Sal to stay with you in the Capital when he's stably well." Hannah smiled and said.
Oscar nodded, and couldn't be happier.
"OK. Off you go." Urged Hannah.
People and cars were waiting for him at the gate. She believed Oscar could linger over there for the whole morning if she didn't urge him.
Oscar looked at Hannah and couldn't hold back his feelings anymore. He bent down to kiss her on the lips in front of everyone. Hannah was stunned for one second. It was a rare case that Oscar would be so impulsive. She just couldn't push him away and humiliate him in front of everyone, but she felt embarrassed while being watched. Oscar kissed her for quite a while.
"You should leave now!" there came Michelle's voice from the house.
Oscar let go of Hannah abruptly and looked like he was afraid of being scolded. He had behaved himself these days under the pressure of Michelle. "Leaving." Oscar took a deep breath and said.
"Hurry! Tons of people are blocking my door. I don't want people to think we've done something bad. Get out of here as fast as you can!" said Michelle. "OK." Oscar nodded and added humbly before he left, "Mom, please take care of Hannah and Sal."
"Don't call me 'mom'!" rejected Michelle ruthlessly.
"I'm not your mom. You're not my son, nor my son-in-law."
Oscar seemed to have been used to Michelle's disgust with him. Most often, he just listened and seldom sassed her.
"Don't try to bond with me." Added Michelle.
Oscar simply looked at her.
"You're nobody to me. You can call me 'Mrs Cooper'." Said Michelle.
Oscar remained silent.
"And who are you to tell me to take care of Hannah and Salem? Hannah is my daughter. Salem is my grandson. You're nobody to tell me what to do!"
Oscar stood still and listened to Michelle's complaint and taunt.
"Get out of my face now!" said Michelle impatiently.
Oscar turned and left instantly.
Hannah had urged him several times but he refused to leave. On the contrary, he was as good as a lamb in front of Michelle.
They left in the cars.
Hannah looked back at Michelle and burst into laughter, "Nailed it, Mom! You scared Oscar away."
Michelle couldn't help to giggle, thinking it was amusing that she had given Oscar a good scolding but Oscar was as timid as a mouse to talk back. She pretended to be mad and turned to Hannah, "I did it for you!"
"Yeah. I know. I know. You're the best mom ever!" flattered Hannah.
They talked and laughed and went back to the house.
Theodore smiled naughtily in the car, "Oh, can you believe it? The Commander-in-chief is not welcomed!"
He waited for Oscar in the car and stretched himself out of the window to check it out. That was how he had seen Michelle scold Oscar, who wouldn't say boo to a goose.
Oscar gave him a sharp stare.
Theodore cleared his throat, "Fine. Just pretend I didn't see anything!"
Oscar looked out of the window. He couldn't stop thinking of Hannah telling him that she would come to stay with him in the Capital.
He always thought Hannah was brushing him off. Maybe she had finally realized she could count on him and played up to him on purpose. But more often, he would rather believe Hannah cared about him better than he had thought. He felt his heart racing each time he thought of Hannah.
"Oscar," said Theodore seriously.
"Yeah?" answered Oscar, who had changed his face in a second.
"The Collins family won't just let go at that."
Oscar frowned.
"Mathew has lost one leg. The Collins family must bear grudges. I'm afraid things will be out of control soon." Said Theodore bluntly.
Theodore had tried to talk Oscar out of it while he was getting back at Mathew, but he understood Oscar's decision. Anyway, he must pay for it. Oscar was ruthless to the Collins family and the latter wouldn't be as loyal to him as before.
