After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire

Chapter 1116 Escape

Doyle's body was stiff. Due to Besse's suicide, there was still a trace of panic on his face. He didn't think about seeing Besse tonight. However, he never expected that Besse would resort to using this method to threaten him. His fingers were trembling involuntarily.

Hannah was also surprised when she heard the news of Besse's suicide. Would she end her life like this as she woke up after being in a coma for such a long time? Or, was it acting? Everything was just a play that made Doyle have to leave here.

Hannah remained calm.

Doyle did not respond, and the phone rang again. This time, he answered the phone without hesitation.

It was Queen Carol calling.

"Doyle, I'm taking Besse to the hospital now. If anything happens to her again... our mother-son relationship will be completely over!"

After saying that, the phone was suddenly hung up. Doyle's hand holding the phone was also trembling all the time. Meanwhile, a message popped up on the screen of the mobile phone.

Doyle saw a picture of Besse, who was lying in a pool of blood. At that moment, it reminded him of the time when Besse had a car accident several years ago. She was also lying in the blood back then. Though he was trying to conceal his emotions, he couldn't stop shivering all over. The rims of his eyes turned red as he turned his head to look at Hannah on the bed.

Hannah wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and looked at him with such indifference.

"If it is your plan..." said he..

Hannah was still a little nervous. Doyle seemed to have discovered something.

"I will never let you go!" Doyle left with these cruel words. In the end, he couldn't bear to see Besse being hurt by himself like this, so he hastily left with some people.

In a moment, Hannah heard the sound of a car engine downstairs. It was obvious to hear the urgency of leaving them.

Doyle left, and the room had become quiet again. It finally quieted down. Hannah let out a sigh of relief. Regardless of whether Doyle discovered anything or not, she managed to bluff her way through. She turned her head and looked out onto the balcony. Oscar walked into the room from the balcony. So, he had been there, witnessing what had happened between her and Doyle. There was no need to explain anything to him, so there was no guilt in her.

"Shall we go?" Oscar asked.

He was asking her if she had changed her mind to leave after engaging in an intimate relationship with Doyle.

For Oscar, it could have happened earlier. It was just that he caught them tonight. And when he saw them together, he felt agony in his heart. He always thought he could accept any identity of Hannah; he could accept everything of her. However, when he truly saw Hannah and another man... he wanted to kill Doyle, even though it would be a heavy cost.

But he was afraid that Hannah would hate him more. He had no idea about what Hannah's feelings towards Doyle were.

If there were no feelings for Doyle in her, she wouldn't have made love with him, Oscar thought.

Oscar waited for her response. If she wanted to leave, he would take her away; if not, he would leave her alone. This was not the first time he parted from her. Even if it hurt every time, he managed to endure it and get through it. All he wanted was to make her happy. As for him, he was not important at all. Being alive, he had been already numb.

Hannah glanced at him and replied, "Let's go."

Hannah still had to leave. She had never been a person who was willing to be controlled by anyone in her life. She needed freedom. It was the same for him back then. And now it was Doyle's turn. Doyle was wrong because he thought he could break Hannah's wings and imprison her. Maybe there would be different results if he had kept her differently.

"Turn around," Hannah spoke up.

She needed to put on clothes now. She was almost naked under the quilt. Oscar stared at the blanket clasped tight by her and thought that they did. He secretly laughed at himself with self-deprecation, since he had no right to restrain Hannah from having any relationship with anyone.

He then turned around. Hannah quickly put on a set of clothes and walked over to him.

"Let's go." Said she.

So they walked towards the outdoor balcony.

It was on the second floor. Oscar could easily jump down. After landing, he only rolled once on the lawn. There were not many sounds. Then he gestured for Hannah to jump down as well. Though it was very high from there. She was quite unwilling to jump into Oscar's arms.

Though reluctant, Hannah leapt into Oscar's arms in the end.

She wasn't heavy, but not light either. Oscar held her tightly without even flinching. He held her steady as they suddenly found themselves very close. Hannah wriggled out of Oscar's embrace and he let go of her too. And in that split second, Oscar grabbed her hand and swiftly pulled her into the nearby foliage to hide as a guard walked by.

They both held their breaths as Oscar prepared to act if necessary. Thankfully, the guard checked briefly but didn't notice them before turning around and walking away. Both of them breathed a sigh of relief at once. It was then that they realized their hands were tightly clasped together. Hannah moved hers slightly while Oscar slowly released his grip on hers. The warmth between their palms dissipated just like that. Oscar showed no emotion as he stood up to survey their surroundings before gesturing for Hannah to follow him from behind. They made sure to stay hidden until they reached the large tree where Oscar started earlier on.

"Hannah, climb up first."

Hannah looked at the straight trunk sceptically; she couldn't climb it alone.

"Step on my shoulders, there are branches above you can use to climb further up, Theodore was waiting outside."

Oscar crouched down while Hannah stepped onto his shoulders, after which he carefully stood upright again so she could reach for a branch. With all her might, she finally climbed higher up.

Just when it seemed like everything would go smoothly, someone shouted out abruptly.

"Who goes there?!"

They were discovered!
