After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire

Chapter 1096 Wedding (7) Oscar Leaves Alone

Amid Susan's argument, Oscar walked out of the hall. By now, everyone had left and the once lively place was now unusually quiet. It was like in a play when all the characters disperse and everyone has gone.

"Oscar," Theodore was the first to notice him walking out. The others quickly turned their heads to look at him, who seemed to be unaffected by Hannah's departure. It was only because he had already licked his wounds and put on a facade that he could appear so composed in front of everyone.

"I'm going back." He said.

"Back where?" Theodore asked.

"To Northfield."

"What about Hannah?"

"She... has her own life," Oscar said with a heavy voice.

"But..." Theodore wanted to say more but Oscar cut him off.

"Let's go."

Oscar didn't want to talk anymore for fear that he would lose control over himself. And as for Hannah, she no longer had any feelings for him; she even felt disgusted by him now. He turned to his son and said, "Salem."

Salem looked at Oscar with pleading eyes and said pitifully, "I don't want to go. I want to see my mom." When he found out that Besse was his biological mother, he felt so happy. Even if she weren't his real mother, he would still love her very much. Now that he knew who she was, all Salem wanted was to be with her again.

"Then go with Susan," Oscar knew how Salem felt but right now he couldn't find the words to explain to this boy while being overwhelmed by something inside him. There wasn't anything else he could do except not disturb Besse's wedding ceremony.

"But don't bother your mom's wedding," Oscar added.

"Okay."

Oscar closed the car door while Theodore hesitated before handing Salem over to Manuel saying, "I'll leave Salem in your care. I need to check up on Oscar just in case."

After saying this, he quickly got into Oscar's car and they drove away together leaving behind a space filled only by Susan looking at lonely Oscar's car as well as feeling lonely herself too. She couldn't help but sigh deeply. Once upon a time she truly wished for Hannah to leave Oscar behind, but now seeing them break up made her feel somewhat regretful too.

The two prodigies of the heavens, once a model couple envied by all, how did they become so broken and fragmented?

"Let's go," Manuel called to Susan. Susan turned around and, with Salem in tow, followed Manuel into a wedding car for the bridal party. They went straight to the palace. After Hannah and Doyle finished their tour, they returned to the palace.

Hannah had changed into a traditional royal wedding dress for today's main ceremony. Susan walked into her makeup room with Salem. Inside the makeup room, Hannah in a magnificent royal wedding gown sat in front of her dressing table while stylists worked on her hairdo. Through the mirror, Hannah saw Susan leading Salem inside. Both of them had red eyes as if they were holding back tears. At that moment, they stood there quietly without calling out to her as if afraid of disturbing her.

Hannah smiled lightly at them. It was a smile that contained too many tears. It was clear that both Susan and Salem knew about her true identity now. She said, "Come over here."

Upon hearing Hannah's voice, Susan led Salem over towards where she was sitting.

Salem stood before Hannah cautiously before saying, "Miss Besse."

It pained Hannah's heart when she looked at him because he had just called out "Mom" earlier. Why did he change his address now?

"I asked him to call you like this so it wouldn't affect your wedding." Explained Susan. "You are Besse."

If this wedding were still going on, if she were marrying Doyle, she would be Besse instead of Hannah. Besse didn't have a son.

Tears welled up in Hannah's eyes too.

Right now, she couldn't acknowledge Salem because she was still Besse, who had yet to complete this marriage ceremony.

"Don't worry," said Susan quickly upon seeing redness around Hannah's eyes. "Oscar has left."

Hannah looked at her. She thought Oscar sent them here to persuade or even stop her from getting married, especially after bringing along Salem.

"He won't come here to stop your wedding," explained Susan again quickly fearing being chased away by Hanna like last time. "Salem only wanted to see you."

Earlier when she ignored Salem and walked away, she felt so remorseful. And seeing the little boy right now made her feel a bit at ease.

"Congratulations on your new marriage." Added Salem hastily, fearing being chased away by Hannah. "This is a gift for you."

As he spoke, Salem reached into his little suit and pulled out a handmade little bunny. Hannah was surprised. "Did you make this yourself?" she asked.

"I was going to give it to my sister, but when I heard that you were getting married, I wanted to give it to you as a wedding gift," Salem said in his childish voice. "Dad agreed too. He said he would bless you if you want to marry Prince Doyle." Salem's voice was serious and sincere. "Dad didn't come here to force you, don't hate him."

Hannah touched his head and said, "I don't hate him."

"Okay," Salem replied obediently. "I'll go back and tell Dad."

Hannah smiled and replied without objection. She didn't hate Oscar. They just became strangers again.

Susan and Salem stayed with Hannah in her dressing room while she did her makeup. Susan, who was usually lively and talkative, remained silent at the moment as she watched Hannah quietly. Things that they never dared imagine had miraculously happened before their eyes. Hannah was alive. She truly felt that this day was the happiest day of her life, just like when her father suddenly woke up from a vegetative state.

Susan realized that she must be happy after all. When everything seemed lost, everything came back again, including her father, husband and her best friend. She felt like she was the luckiest person in the world. In the future, she would repay God's kindness by doing more good deeds.

"Susan... Don't cry anymore." Hannah couldn't bear watching her cry any longer. At this moment, sitting at the dressing table herself made it difficult for her to wipe away Susan's tears.

The woman who always acted so carefree sat beside her crying non-stop as though trying to shed all of her tears in life at once.
