After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 26

“Can’t you be more serious?” Hannah was a little shy because of Oscar’s word.

This man would say anything.

Hannah remembered that he had called someone else ‘babe’.

“...”

Hannah stated that she did not care whom he called ‘Babe’.

After all, they were eyeing the greater benefits.

“Do you know what is flirtation?” Every time Oscar spoke while smiling, his voice was capable of mesmerizing.

“I’ll let you know next time.” Oscar continued in a bewitching voice.

“Oscar.” Oscar was about to hang up the phone.

“Uh-hum?”

“Don’t forget your schedule tomorrow.”

“I’ll be there as long as you’ll be there.”

It sounded like Oscar was giving Hannah a commitment.

Hannah replied without thinking much, “See you tomorrow.”

“See you.”

Hannah hung up the phone.

The next second, the phone rang again.

Hannah ’s expression changed. She took the call, “Charles.”

“Martina told me that you beat her, right?” Charles said in an interrogative tone. It sounded a little offensive.

Hannah could hear Martina’s voice over the phone saying, “And Susan, I have aches all over. Charles, you have to stand up for me!”

Hannah replied coldly, “Charles, you’ve known me for so many years. Don’t you know what kind of person I am? When did you ever see me beaten up anybody?”

Charles paused for a while, and he thought what Hannah said was right.

“Ask yourself. Haven’t I treated your sister well enough? When did I not help her or give her what she wanted? If I hadn’t stopped Susan when we’re in school, they would have fought for hundreds of time by now. And now you’re questioning me? How do you want me to answer you?”

Hannah sounded livid, leaving Charles remaining in silence.

“I have nothing to say if you trust your sister more. Since you’re so convinced that she told the truth, I will be the bad guy.” Hannah wanted to hang up the phone.

“Hannah,” Charles could feel Hannah ’s fury over the phone. He quickly stopped her from hanging up the phone, “I don’t mean that. Martina came home with wounds on her face. I feel sorry for her. I know who you are. You wouldn’t have beaten Martina.”

“Charles, Hannah hit me! And Susan too! Or how did I get hurt like this? It’s her!” Martina was screaming over the phone.

“Enough. Hannah won’t do that to you. Shut your mouth.” Charles scolded Martina.

“What’s wrong with you? Charles. I’m telling you. It’s her! Why didn’t you believe me?” Martina was triggered.

On the other end, Hannah said coldly, “Well, I didn’t stop Susan.”

Charles fed up having Martina screaming beside him.

He walked to a quieter corner, “Why didn’t you stop them? You know Martina couldn’t stand feeling offended.”

Charles sounded like he was complaining.

Hannah sneered at him.

At the Sawyer Manor, Charles’s expression changed the moment he hung up the phone.

He rushed to the living room in towering rage.

The doctor was cleaning Martina’s wounds. When Martina saw Charles coming into the living room, she quickly asked, “Charles, did you tell that bitch off? She helped Susan bully me! You should make her regret what she did. Ask her to apologize to me tomorrow, or I’ll never forgive her…”

“Enough!” Charles shouted.

Loretta was in the living with them as well.

She felt hurt to see the injuries on Martina.

Loretta was startled when Charles got mad.

“What’s wrong?” Loretta asked.

“What’s wrong? Martina spoke ill of Hannah and told Hannah that I was going to dump her. Now she is angry with me and wanted to call off our wedding.”

“Call off the wedding then! Hannah doesn’t deserve a good man like you, Charles. I bet she’ll beg you to take her back if you call off the wedding for real…” Said Martina.

“Do you know what’s going on with our family? The Coopers lent us two billion. We won’t get anything done without this sum of money. The share price of our company is dropping, and we might have to announce bankruptcy if it drops any further. Our wedding is the only way to stabilize the share price of the Sawyer Group. Are you trying to push our family to bankruptcy by messing up with my wedding?” Charles was furious.

Martina felt aggrieved.

Everyone in the family had been pampering Martina since the day she was born. No one had ever scolded her like this.

“I’ve promised Hannah that you’ll make an apology tomorrow. Don’t let her think you don’t like her.” Charles told Martina.

“An apology?” Martina widened her eyes.

Hannah was always an easy target for Martina to pick on.

She would refuse to do so without doubt.
