After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire

Chapter 1095 Wedding (6) Salem's Here

Hannah walked out of the hall alone, still wearing her beautiful wedding dress and looking stunning as ever. She had a slight smile on her lips, seemingly unaffected by anything that had just happened. No one could tell what she had said or done with Northfield's commander after they went inside. She was still the sweet and beautiful bride of today.

She stopped in front of Doyle and gave him a sweet smile. "Let's go."

Doyle looked worried, glancing back inside where Oscar hadn't come out yet for some reason. But there was no sign of anything unusual on Besse's face. He had already made up his mind; he would stop Oscar from taking Besse away, even if it meant hurting her in the process.

But he realized he was overthinking things when Besse took his hand again and sat down in their wedding car with him. As soon as they got into the car, a loud childish voice called out behind them, "Mom!" Besse froze for a moment upon hearing Salem's voice but didn't turn around to look at him.

"Mom!" the boy called out again.

She knew that Oscar must have brought Salem here because he expected her to refuse his proposal. Oscar was more despicable than she thought. "Doyle," she said calmly, "let's go."

If this was what Oscar wanted to see happen, then she would let him see it. Doyle signalled to the driver and they left without looking back at Salem, who watched them leave with tears in his eyes. He wasn't trying to stop her from getting married. Dad said that if he didn't bring Mom back, then he could come to bless Mom on her happy wedding day. But now his Mom had gone without even saying goodbye.

Salem watched sadly as the wedding car drove further away from him until it disappeared completely from sight.

The person accompanying Salem was Theodore. Oscar drove himself after getting off the plane, due to the danger, he asked Theodore to bring Salem later. As soon as they arrived, they saw Hannah's cold back leaving. She was Hannah. If it weren't for the paternity test he saw that day, Theodore wouldn't have believed that Besse was Hannah. Even though Oscar and Manuel were suspicious of Besse's identity, it never crossed his mind that it could be Hannah or maybe he just didn't dare to hope. Theodore felt responsible for Hannah's death years ago and had been feeling guilty ever since. He wished so much that she was still alive but feared being disappointed if his hopes were too high. Therefore, he always convinced himself that she was dead and gone forever.

If it wasn't for the day in Oscar's office when Theodore noticed him staring at a file for an unusual amount of time, he wouldn't have seen the test result, which shocked him. He almost cried out right away, while Oscar remained motionless without any expression on his face until finally saying, "Theodore, can I try again?"

Of course, Theodore hoped he could try again. He hoped Oscar could bring Hannah back at any cost. He immediately arranged a private jet for Oscar to Jolencami. But Oscar said, "I have an international interview to attend."

Theodore held back. He understood that for Oscar, sitting in this position meant not having complete control over everything.

"One day earlier should work." Said Theodore trying not only to give courage but also to prepare himself thoroughly.

Theodore arranged an earlier flight which should have arrived yesterday but due to bad weather conditions in Northfield, Oscar had just arrived today.

He didn't see Oscar anywhere just watched as Hanna left choosing someone else instead of him. Oscar missed out once more.

"Theodore," Manuel called out behind him bringing him back into reality.

Theodore turned around and saw Manuel walking over with Susan. Susan seemed to have just realized something and asked, "Is Besse Hannah?" "Manuel didn't tell you?" Theodore was surprised.

Susan frowned and got angry right away. "So, you knew all along?"

"I only found out recently."

"How long ago was that?" Susan asked angrily.

Manuel didn't know how to explain it to her.

"Manuel!" Susan was furious.

"It wasn't until the day before we left for Jolencami that I confirmed it with a paternity test," Manuel said calmly.

"When did you do it? And how did you manage to do it?" Susan was surprised. She felt like her intelligence had been insulted because she never even thought of using this method to verify Hannah's identity. How could Manuel be so smart?

"I just thought Besse and Hannah looked too much alike, so I wanted to dispel my doubts by doing a paternity test on them both," Manuel explained casually. "Hannah stayed with us for a few days, so getting her hair wasn't difficult, and Salem's hair was even easier."

"Why didn't you tell me when you found out she was Hannah!" Susan accused him.

She felt like she had been played for a fool.

"I was afraid of harming the baby," Manuel said frankly.

"But now, aren't you afraid of harming the baby anymore?" Susan raised her voice slightly.

"Just calm down," Manuel comforted her while feeling her emotional fluctuations as well.

Susan took deep breaths again and again until she calmed down from being angry earlier but then she was distracted again thinking about Hannah, alive. Tears flowed uncontrollably from her eyes as she couldn't hold back any more emotions flooding in at once.

"Let's go see Hannah!" Susan made up her mind without hesitation or delay. She wanted desperately to see Hannah right now.
