Chapter 492 They Must Be Long-lost Friends!
Charles had signed the contract that allowed the emerce project to resume.
Hannah spent the whole day working on the officialunch of the project. Though she promised not to
workte, she did so until this time.
She stretched and wondered why Oscar didn''t call or text her. On second thought, she realized he did
not seem to bother her while she was at work. By the time she got up and left, Susan called.
"What makes you call?"
"You won''t call me, so I have to make the move!" Susan was angry about it.
Hannah knew she was in the wrong for being so busy that she often neglects her.
Susan did not hold it against her, just asked, "Where are you now?"
"About to knock off"
"Come to the Emperor Club."
"It''s toote." Hannah declined, considering Oscar was waiting for her to get home.
"It''s only after nine."
"I''ve got work to do tomorrow."
"Tomorrow''s Saturday."
"Oscar''s back." She told her straight after all, otherwise, Susan won''t let her.
"Huh," Susan sneered, "I knew you werepletely smitten by that jerk."
"…"
"I saw him at the club so I asked you to catch him in the act."
Hannah was stunned on hearing this.
"So be quick, he and Theodore are getting so high." Susan hurried her.
Hannah''s face clouded a little. No wonder that jerk didn''t urge her to go home. She had thought he was
being considerate, only to find he was picking up girls. Hannah spoke into the phone in anger, "Be right
there!" She hung up and had Jimmy drive her.
Putting down the phone, Susan showed an evil smile. She was watching them for quite a while. They
were alone in Theodore''s private box-not a single woman got in there, nor a single waiter. It was
nothing but pals hanging out for a drink.
Despite the fact, lying was the only way to get Hannah here, she wanted her to be here. Bored to death
all by herself, Susan didn''t remember what it was about this ce that attracted her before. Now
watching these girls she used to hang out with dancing and moving their bodies, she felt so out of ce
yet feared to back home, where a lonely night awaited her. Sometimes she would think of the
miscarriage, the depressing episode that she believed would haunt her for the rest of her life. She sat
in a corner with that upset feeling in her heart, staring eagerly at the door to see if Hannah was in sight.
Having waited for ten minutes and more, Susan smiled when saw hering in a hurry. Hannah kept
on saying that she did not care for Oscar at all, which was nothing more than another example in
ord with the saying that women tend to be like saying one thing but mean another.
She arrived looking anxious and flustered. And to be clear, that was not a sign of "did not care for", but
a sign of "falling in love" indeed.
Hannah became serious as she saw Susan rushing over. "You drink after a miscarriage? How can you
be so irresponsible to yourself?"
Susan rolled her eyes. "Hannah, it''s been almost three months. Won''t you just let it go?"
Hannah tried to say something more but was dragged to Theodore''s box. "Come, I''ll show you the big
scene."
"…"
It looked rather daunting to get in there. As they approached, someone stopped them and warned in a
cold voice, not afraid to offend either of them, "No trespassers!".
"Nobody''s trespasser. This is Mrs Wells, the wife of the best friend of your boss. Go away!" said Susan
proudly.
The tall figure in a ck suit paused and then spoke into the microphone on his cor. Soon they were
respectfully invited.
It was quiet inside. Just as Susan had observed, Oscar and Theodore were alone in the room.
A faint smile rested on Oscar''s face when he saw Hannah here. Theodore quipped, "Obviously, Mrs
Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
Wells can''t leave my buddy even for a little while."
Hannah was speechless, looking back in annoyance at Susan.
Where was the scene? Catch who in the act?
Feeling scared by her gaze, Susan hastened to exin, "You should be happy about it. Do you want
him to have an affair?" Hannah had already felt Susan''s being unreasonable.
Susan was quite cool with this scenario. "Meeting by chance is better than meeting as nned. We can
drink with you two."
"Who said so?" Theodore did not buy it, "We are having fun and need no one else to drink with."
"Come on! Be a man! Here''s a woman that offered to have a drink with you, and you turned her down?
What the fucking wrong with you?" Susan yelled at him.
He wanted to yell back on ount of their unpleasant past.
"Now then," Hannah tried to smooth things over, "it looks like we''re gonna join you since we''re here."
And Oscar, too, gave him a look.
"A gentleman doesn''t fight women." Theodore finally gave way. And so did Susan, who pouted sitting
with Hannah.
Oscar went and sat down beside Hannah, "Why didn''t you text me after work?"
"Are you waiting for me to text you?" asked Hannah.
"I dare not to disturb you, my dear."
"That''s why you chose to drink with him, huh?"
"My dear, please feel free to check. I swear I drank not a drop of wine."
Hannah couldn''t helpughing a little.
What a loving couple! They were giving the other two goose pimples. Susan rolled her eyes and took a
ss of wine, "Have a drink."
Theodore hadn''t intended to drink with her, yet he simply did so because he could not stand them
either.
He had never seen a woman drink in such a forthright manner. Her rtionship with Manuel aside, she
had a good character when drinking. The two of them were at daggers down only a moment ago, but
after drinking too much, they became friends.
Watching them put an arm on each other''s shoulder like old pals, Hannah joked spontaneously, "Are
they long lost brother and sister or what?"
"Everyone has a friend that seems not so smart but brings you joy." Said Oscar, sipping lukewarm
water, "They are the ones!"
Hannah smiled broadly.
How felicitous is the turn of phrase!
