Revenge On Her Ex After Rebirth -
Chapter 936
Chapter 936 Hannah Disappears
That night, Hannah returned to Northfield. She never expected to come back so soon. She thought it would be at least a year or two before she could return.
When she arrived at the Capital International Airport, Theodore was waiting for her.
"Hannah," he said as he approached her.
Some things seemed difficult to say, but seeing Hannah come back made him feel emotional.
Hannah nodded slightly and replied.
"I'll take you to Oscar's place," Theodore said straightforwardly.
Hannah didn't refuse and asked, "What's the situation now?"
Theodore didn't hide anything from her and replied honestly, "We still haven't found Lillian's whereabouts. We have blocked off the entire Capital and Northfield. Lillian must still be within our borders. But she hasn't appeared in public view yet..."
Theodore pursed his lips as he looked at Hannah and continued speaking with a serious tone of voice, "I'm prepared for the worst-case scenario."
"What about Oscar?" Hannah asked anxiously.
Had he also prepared himself for the worst?
"I don't know," Theodore shook his head helplessly, "Since Una disappeared right under our noses, Oscar has barely spoken or slept; he has just been sitting there day and night without moving an inch. I don't know what he is thinking."
Hannah could imagine how Oscar must be feeling right now.
"If it weren't for Oscar being in such a terrible state of mind, I wouldn't have let you come back," Theodore explained sincerely.
"I understand." Hannah nodded understandingly. She knew how important Oscar was to Theodore.
But then again, Theodore wasn't someone who couldn't handle pressure either-if he had asked her for help already then it meant that this situation had become too much even for him to bear alone. "I'll go use the restroom first." Said Hannah.
Just before they left the airport terminal building together with their entourage of bodyguards, Hannah spoke up abruptly. Theodore nodded absentmindedly without giving much thought to it. She walked towards the restroom nearby, while Theodore and the others were waiting patiently outside.
After a long while, Theodore couldn't help but glimpse into the restroom. He forced himself not to make more moves though he worried that Hannah might do something unexpected. But on second thought, Hannah had no reason to disappear just like that, since if she was unwilling to come back to Northfield, she would have refused before the departure. Theodore would not force her.
After almost twenty minutes, Theodore couldn't wait any longer, so he dialled Hannah's number.
There was no response. He tried again but it didn't get through either.
At that moment, Theodore still thought that Hannah must have gotten into trouble; he didn't believe she would leave herself like that.
If Hannah was in danger, there was no way for him to make it right, even with his life.
He broke into the lady's room, which caused horrible shrieks out of the restroom. Panicked, Theodore searched every corner inside with his men. Then they found a phone in a cubicle. That was Hannah's phone, with the words, "I'm out of here. Don't try to replace me.", on the screen.
Theodore clasped his fists. The SIM card in the phone was the one she used abroad. He punched the door with anger. The bang scared the ladies inside.
"Find her!"
"Yes, sir!"
In the meantime, Hannah had been in a taxi. She used an excuse of going to the bathroom to avoid Theodore's sight. As Hannah expected, he was not on guard against her, since she had promised to come back. So she left quite smoothly. She spent some money and changed an outfit with a lady, and she just left it under his nose. Hannah was thinking if she was caught by Theodore, perhaps he would strangle her. However, she deemed that she would be able to complete many things better herself. More importantly, she didn't feel that being by Oscar's side would have any effect. She didn't deem herself that important in Oscar's eyes.
The driver sent her downtown. Since Hannah was clear on what she would do next, she had prepared a lot of cash herself. Cash transactions would not leave online evidence. At least, they couldn't replace her in the short term.
She went to a store to buy a new phone and a new SIM and then got herself another cab.
Hannah sent out a message with the new number. Although she was not sure whether she would get any response or how long it would take, she thought she should have a try.
The cab sent her to a clothing store. Hannah bought a new outfit and got changed, thinking that Theodore must have watched the video surveillance and known the clothes she wore when she got out of the bathroom.
After leaving the clothing store, Hannah needed to replace somewhere to stay but she couldn't go to a hotel. She could only go to a 24-hour restaurant and grab something to eat while thinking about what next steps were necessary.
Suddenly, her phone rang causing Hannah's heart rate to skyrocket with fear as she looked at an unfamiliar number on her screen.
Lillian didn't use her phone either but she still turned it on just in case there was any information waiting for her, despite knowing that doing so could reveal their location.
Hannah answered.
"Lillian."
"Hannah, it's you. I thought Oscar was playing games again!" Lillian said sarcastically
"It's me." Replied Hannah bluntly, "I'm in The Capital now. I want us to meet up."
Lillian laughed mockingly and said, "You think I'll give you the chance? You just want me to show myself so Oscar can kill me! Let me tell you something, I won't die that easily; there is no way I will fall into your hands!"
"I made it clear in my message earlier that Oscar isn't with me anymore." Explained Hannah calmly, "And there is no way for him to know your whereabouts. The only reason why I contacted you is Una Wells." "Hmph." Lillian scoffed once more, "Do you care about her?"
"I do care." Replied Hannah firmly, "Cian Wells saved my life back then with his own life; Una Wells is all he has left behind. His flesh and blood, how could I possibly turn away from helping?"
"Oscar can be so ruthless, where do you stand in comparison? I even suspect now that your deteriorating relationship with Oscar was just an act to make me lower my guard and for my late father to do the same."
