Chapter 943 Oscar's Entrustment

On the abandoned dock, the sound of an urgent engine echoed over the sea level. It was clear that a yacht was rapidly leaving. The cars on shore quickly headed towards the coast. When they arrived, they saw a white yacht sailing away from them into the distance.

Theodore gave orders, "All coastal patrol units in Northfield, mobilize and do everything in your power to stop that yacht!"

Everything had already been arranged on Northfield's sea level long before this order was given. Countless ships quickly approached to intercept the escaping yacht. In fact, not only at sea but also on land and in the air were prepared for Lillian's appearance, so she would have nowhere to escape once she showed up.

"Commander! Captain!" A guard approached to report urgently.

At this moment Oscar watched as the yacht disappeared far away from his sight. He turned his gaze towards the guard who had just arrived with news.

"What did you replace?" Theodore asked excitedly.

Could it be that Lillian never left and instead used this opportunity to lure them away?

Luckily he had ordered some people to search around at the dock when he got off earlier so as not to be fooled by Lillian again.

"It's not her." Replied the guard.

Theodore narrowed his eyes suspiciously.

"I took some photos." The guard respectfully took out a military camera he carried with him and handed it over to Oscar and Theodore respectively.

In addition to Lillian's blood message, there were also some words written next to it which made Theodore visibly anxious when he saw them.

Hannah was with Lillian now. She went alone looking for Lillian.

He never thought Hannah would go this far. He only wanted Hannah back just so she could accompany Oscar. Never did he imagine sacrificing her like this.

Theodore clenched his fists tightly, trying hard to calm himself down. He couldn't even bear looking at Oscar right now because if Oscar shot him dead right then and there, he deserved it! Meanwhile, beside him, Oscar also looked at those words in shock.

Though he knew it couldn't have been written by Hannah, and the person who wanted more conflict must be none other than Lillian, he was shocked by those words.

Hannah was with Lillian now. Oscar wondered for Hannah, whether he wasn't worth any trust. She would rather sacrifice herself than trust him once again. Those words seemed to be cut in his heart. Tears blurred his eyes.

Both of them fell into silence. When Theodore was about to break this silence, his phone rang.

"Captain, the yacht has been surrounded by us, but we dare not approach it. There might be bombs and weapons on the yacht. They could engage in extreme behaviour if we forcefully attack them. Orders, Captain."

Theodore looked at Oscar, waiting for his order.

"Stop right there. I'll get there," said Oscar.

"Yes, Commander!" the soldier's voice sounded on the phone.

Meanwhile, there were several more ships on the sea level, obviously coming to pick up Oscar.

Theodore turned to leave.

"Theodore." Oscar suddenly stopped him.

Theodore pursed his lips, getting himself prepared for Oscar's blame or even a sentence to death. He even felt that bringing Hannah back from abroad was the stupidest act of his life. His foolishness caused such an uncontrollable situation.

"You won't go there," Oscar said firmly.

Theodore was stunned. He had never expected Oscar's abandonment of him. He just stared at Oscar like that, knowing that anything he said was useless now. He was not supposed to weasel his way out of it. He should accept all the results. But the only thing that could not be accepted by him was Oscar's disappointment and abandonment.

Clenching his fists and trembling slightly, Theodore was trying to hold back his tears.

"Oscar, I'm sorry." Said he.

Although he regretted a lot and was eager to make up for his unacceptable mistake, and he even thought that he would ensure Hannah's safety at the cost of his life. However, Oscar no longer trusted him. If it were him, he might have done the same.

Theodore turned to leave.

Oscar grabbed his arm, "Theodore."

He was also trying to keep himself calm.

"I understand. It's my fault. I always do things that are not appreciated and make a mess of things. From childhood until now, you've helped me clean up many messes." Said Theodore.

Oscar's throat trembled. His suppressed emotions were no less calm than Theodore's.

"I don't blame you. I know all your considerations about Hannah going to replace Lillian have nothing to do with you."

Theodore knew this too well- he and Oscar had been brothers for so many years. Oscar didn't want to embarrass him too much either, so he always gave him a way out.

He forced himself to smile and said, "I knew you would understand. Well then, I'll leave first and see if there's anything else that needs doing. Take care."

Theodore always made himself look like he didn't care at all, and used nonchalance as a cover-up for all the blows he received inside his heart.

"I'm leaving now." He was very eager to leave because he couldn't pretend for too long, and he was afraid of losing control in front of Oscar "What I mean is," Oscar swallowed a bit, agitated inside, and he said, "If I die, Commander of Northfield will be taken over by you." Theodore was shocked from head to toe, looking incredulously at Oscar.

"You're the best candidate in my opinion." Said Oscar firmly before Theodore could say anything else.

"Oscar..."

"Let me finish." Oscar interrupted his words. Even though it took great effort on his part just so that he could speak calmly.

With red eyes staring intently at Oscar, Theodore was trying hard to suppress everything inside him.

"If there is no direct heir left in the Wells family, Manuel should be the one taking over as Commander. But Manuel has his life, so I don't want to force him into doing something that doesn't interest him. Sal... Sal is still young, I don't want history repeating on him, like Cian and me. My decision may seem selfish but other than you, there isn't anyone else who can put my mind at ease."

Theodore's body shook uncontrollably. He thought that perhaps Oscar hated him more than anything else. But little did he expect that at this very moment, the Wells family's most important legacy would be entrusted to him.
