Chapter 992 Daddy Likes You So Much!

Susan finally understood Oscar's intentions. She looked at him and bluntly told him, "Oscar, Besse is not Hannah. I've asked her. Don't be delusional."

Oscar had an answer inside of himself. So he ignored what Susan said.

"I'm not joking with you. I wished Besse was Hannah, but she isn't. You're just being stubborn." Susan said, even though she didn't like Oscar that much anymore after seeing how poorly he had been doing these past few years. And besides, Hannah wasn't killed by him.

People are just forgetful and easily moved.

She even looked down on herself for believing in something that wasn't true.

"Hannah was a designer before, but she wouldn't have been indifferent if her designs were stolen. She would've fought for her rights." "Assuming that Hannah is willing to expose herself as a designer." Oscar retorted back at Susan and shut her up with his words alone.

At the time, she didn't even know that Hannah was a designer who could design so many beautiful dresses.

Susan wanted to refute his claim because Besse made it very clear to her yesterday that she wasn't Hannah; now she believed it too.

Manuel spoke up from beside them, "Okay then, we'll take care of this matter."

"Manuel." Susan was speechless because this guy, who had previously told her firmly that Besse was not Hannah. Why did he suddenly change his mind in front of Oscar? It seemed like two different faces entirely.

"We'll investigate first," Manuel said to Susan. "Anything is possible."

"So you denied me earlier just because I'm someone who can be easily denied?!" Susan got angry with Manuel's previous denial of the truth about Besse being someone other than Hannah.

"I didn't think deeply about it then." Manuel laughed at himself, "Now I realize there are many miracles in this world."

Susan rolled her eyes at him. Hadn't he always said she was thinking about unrealistic things all day long?

"When you get any news let me know." Oscar solemnly told Manuel before they left together with their hands held tightly together

"Okay." Manuel agreed readily. "Let's go back now."

After leaving, Susan asked him if they should say goodbye to Besse before leaving.

"Aren't you embarrassed?" Manuel replied sarcastically, which almost took away all of Susan's breaths

In the end, she followed Manuel, feeling dejected.

Oscar left the study and headed towards the room prepared for Besse. He took a deep breath before knocking on the door. After a moment, the door opened.

"Do you need something?" Besse asked.

"It's time to eat," Oscar replied.

Besse looked at her watch. It was 3:30 in the afternoon, so they had missed lunch and were supposed to have dinner later.

"We haven't had lunch yet, so we'll eat dinner later," Oscar explained.

Besse realized that she hadn't eaten since their flight earlier that day but didn't feel hungry due to all of their recent troubles. She nodded in agreement with Oscar's suggestion.

Oscar turned around and left, keeping his distance from Besse as he walked towards the dining table. Was he afraid of offending her?

Besse followed him calmly to the table, where Salem was already seated waiting for them with food on display. She couldn't help but marvel at how good Commander's cuisine was compared to what she usually ate back home.

"Dad, why are there so many dishes today?" Salem asked curiously while looking at Oscar.

"We have guests over today," Oscar replied simply.

As Besse picked up her utensils, she paused for a moment realizing that this meal must have been prepared specifically for her arrival as a guest in their home.

"Thank you," she said politely.

"I hope it tastes okay for you." Said Oscar.

Besse smiled and asked, "Could you please give me a knife and fork?"

People usually used knives and forks in their meals in Jolencami.

"Northfield cuisine is better suited for spoons rather than forks or knives, however, if it doesn't work out well then try using your spoon instead." Suggested Oscar.

Besse thought she should respect the way people do things in this country. Without further ado, Besse used her spoon. To her surprise, she was quite accustomed to dining in this way.

"Is it okay?" asked Oscar.

"It's fine." Replied Besse while nodding confidently. Despite feeling welcomed by him, Besse felt that Oscar still maintained some distance between himself and her.

However, Besse didn't think too much about this behaviour, knowing that tomorrow morning would bring new opportunities once again after contacting designer 'Phantom' before leaving Northfield.

She lowered her head to eat the braised pork. At the moment, it entered her mouth, she paused. The food gave her a strange sense of familiarity as if she had eaten it before. Her eyes even started to water with indescribable emotions that flooded her mind, but upon closer inspection, there was nothing there.

"Is it spicy?" Salem asked quickly as he watched Besse's expression.

Besse snapped out of it and gradually regained composure. "No, it tastes really good."

"Max's cooking is the best in the world," Salem offered hospitably. "This is your first time trying it out, Miss Besse, you should eat more."

Salem had never interacted with her before and his precocious personality made him wary of strangers at times; however, now that Besse was here in their home and he knew she wasn't dangerous, he relaxed his guard and even felt an urge to get closer to her.

"Okay," Besse smiled slightly.

She couldn't hide how much she liked Salem.

Oscar silently observed their interaction without leaving any trace on his face, except for a barely perceptible smile playing on his lips throughout dinner.

After they finished eating dinner together, Una woke up from her nap. She was used to taking naps at noon. The girl groggily walked out into the living room. She widened her eyes in surprise and said, "Miss Besse?!"

Besse nodded gently while looking at Una's sleepy appearance with affectionate amusement, "Are you happy to see I'm here?"

"Yes!" Una exclaimed loudly while rubbing sleep from her eyes, "Daddy will be even happier!"

"Daddy likes you so much! I saw him looking at pictures of you every day! You're so pretty!"
