Chapter 1132 Gradual Change


    Chapter 1132 Gradual Change


    "Cough!" Oscar almost choked on his saliva.


    ording to Una''s real identity, she should call Oscar "uncle".


    "Did I say it wrong?" Una lowered her head and said ufortably. "I can''t call you mom or auntie.


    What can I call you?"


    A child''s tears could easily melt everything. The words Hannah wanted to say were swallowed back


    down as she said, "You can call me whatever you want."


    "I want to call you mom," Una''s eyes lit up with excitement as she looked straight at Hannah. What a


    little clever girl.


    "Is that okay?" Her eyes turned red again.


    Hannah felt that it was a pity for Una not to be a star. Her acting skills were simply amazing.


    "Mm-hmm," Hannah replied softly.


    Una immediately broke into a smile through the tears. Hannah had a feeling of being tricked by this


    family. When she picked up her fork, she felt someone staring at her intently. She looked over and met


    Oscar''s gaze. He wasn''t even trying to hide his smile this time around.


    Oscar noticed he was caught looking at Hannah and quickly turned his head away before saying, "I''ll


    go get my portion." And he left in embarrassment. As soon as he left, Hannah resumed eating silently.


    "Mom, why is your egg shaped like a heart?" asked Una afterparing hers with Salem''s in-


    shaped eggs for quite some time now, wondering why theirs were so ordinary while Mom''s was so


    pretty.


    "Do you want it?" asked Hannah.


    "Can I have it?"


    "Of course," replied Hannah directly as she handed over the heart-shaped fried egg which she would


    never eat herself anyway. Una was very happy with it.


    Oscar came out carrying another te of food looking displeased but telling himself not to be hasty


    about things yet. So he quietly ate while keeping his head down throughout breakfast. Although the


    familiar taste still reminded her of many things from their past together towards Oscar now -she had


    truly given up hope-there could be no chance of rekindling their rtionship anymore.


    She finished eating indifferently without any further conversation between them. Salem and Una went


    off to school after breakfast, carrying their small backpacks. Max would take care of transportation.


    Before they left though, Hannah told Max, "I talked about your situation with the principal already, finish


    this important event in your life sooner rather thanter."


    Max nodded shyly in response before leaving with Salem and Una. Hannah watched them leave.


    When she returned to the living room, Oscar had already taken off his apron and was sitting on the


    couch reading a newspaper. Despite being in his thirties, he hadn''t gained any weight over the years.


    Even wearing an apron made him look like a model.


    Hannah walked past him without saying anything.


    "Hannah, do you want to go out for a walk?" Oscar suddenly asked her.


    Hannah frowned. Wasn''t it dangerous outside? She came to his house for refuge and now he wanted


    her to go out?


    "I''m here with you," Oscar seemed to sense Hannah''s thoughts.


    "No thanks."


    She nned on leaving but then Oscar asked, "What would you like for lunch?"


    "Anything is fine."


    "How about some pig''s ribs..."

    "Oscar, don''t you have work today?" Hannah interrupted him mid-sentence. She found him annoyingly


    talkative. The memory of Oscar from long ago seemed like who he was now.


    "I took time off," said Oscar. "Because my arm is injured and I need rest."


    A person who needed rest was still cooking himself. Hannah didn''t want to expose him though so she


    kept quiet instead.


    "I want to go back and rest now," said Hannah as she started walking away from him again.


    "Okay, then I won''t bother you." Replied Oscar. He acted like an obedient puppy and it almost annoyed


    her more.


    She took a few steps forward and paused. Then she turned around to look at Oscar, who looked up to


    meet her gaze while reading newspapers. He smiled unconsciously. What an attractive face as he


    smiled.


    Hannah averted his eyes and asked, "Could I use yourputer? Or, could you buy me a new one? I''ll


    transfer the money to your ount..."


    "I''ll get it for you." With that said, he left immediately as if Hannah would give up hisputer if he


    moved too slowly.


    Oscar came back with theptop and handed it to Hannah.


    "Thank you."


    "The code is your birthday."


    Hannah was confused.


    "The PIN code." Added he.


    "Okay."


    Then she went back to her room. As she closed the door, she took a deep breath, for exposing her


    back under Oscar''s steady gaze made her feel pressure. She ced theptop on the coffee table


    before kneeling on the floor and opening it up. Then she typed in her birthday. As soon as the


    password was entered, a photo of her when she still had Hannah''s face appeared on theputer


    screen. She couldn''t remember when it was taken, but she looked so sweet and happy in the picture.


    Seeing her face from before made Hannah feel a bit strange and unfamiliar. She couldn''t help but


    touch her cheek, reaffirming the idea that had formed in her mind.


    Hannah logged into her email to start working on some things for work. Even though she had left


    Jolencami and Doyle behind, her designs were still there and they were about to release new products


    for the season. She had already designed half of them while at Jolencami, so now it was time to finish


    up.


    Once Hannah started working, she becamepletely absorbed in it. After several hours of work that


    morning, Hannah reached out for some coffee. That had be habitual for her during work hours, so


    she felt like something was missing without coffee.


    She got up from her desk and headed towards the lobby area, where Oscar was. When he saw


    Hannahe out he smiled at her.


    "What do you need?" Oscar asked as if he could read what was going on inside of her mind.


    "Is there any coffee at home?"


    "I''ll make some for you," Oscar replied with a smile.


    "I can do it myself." Said Hannah stubbornly


    "You might not be able to find everything you need."


    "Well then, can''t you just tell me where everything is?"


    Oscar thought about this briefly before saying, "No."


    Hannah gritted her teeth before turning around to leave. But after taking a few steps away from him,


    she changed her mind and said, "Mocha, thank you."


    "Okay." Oscar smiled smugly.


    Feeling annoyed, Hannah failed to focus on her designs again, so she started waiting for the coffee


    after she saved the files.


    Filled with boredom, Hannah opened one of the folders saved onto the desktop folder, which contained


    random video files. Since Oscar had agreed to let her use hisputer, there shouldn''t be any state


    secrets on theptop. But when she saw what was in the video, she was dumbfounded.
