After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire

Chapter 1129 Hannah's Comfort

"Because she's just Salem's mom." Oscar gathered the courage to say it. Eventually, Una would find out about her true identity.

"Isn't my mom also my brother's mom?"

"You're not your dad's biological daughter."

"Huh?" Una was completely confused and looked at Oscar with a blank expression.

"Dad had a younger brother who was very dear to me, just like you and Salem are close. You're his daughter, but he passed away, so I brought you back to raise you in his place. Even though you're not my biological daughter, Dad loves you just as much as I love Salem."

"I'm not Dad's daughter?" Una murmured in disbelief and still didn't understand what was happening.

When it finally hit her that she wasn't related to her father by blood, her already hurt face crumpled even more. She burst into tears again and cried out loud, "Why not me? I'm not Dad's daughter... Dad is a bad person! You're bad! I hate you!"

"Una..." Oscar tried to comfort her.

"Don't touch me!" She pushed him away forcefully.

Oscar hesitated for a moment before deciding against forcing himself on the girl who needed time alone. Una ran out of Oscar's room crying uncontrollably with an expression of utter despair on her face. Hannah saw Una running towards the door when she arrived outside of Oscar's room. She felt heartbroken seeing how upset the little girl was when they made eye contact for only one second. Una continued running past Hannah without stopping or looking back at all.

Una locked herself in the bedroom.

"Don't worry." Oscar walked over to Hannah and told her.

Hannah didn't know what to say. Nor did she want Una to bear these things at such a young age. However, she couldn't make it to be Una's mother.

"I'll talk with her," Hannah spoke up.

Oscar was a bit surprised.

"I'll give it a try

"Thank you."

Then Hannah walked towards Una's room. She knocked on the door. There was no response inside.

"Una, open the door, okay? I want to talk with you." Said Hannah.

"No! Don't come to me." Una said while crying.

Hannah gritted her teeth and tried to open Una's room door but it was locked by Una from inside. Hannah left and went to the lobby to call a servant.

"Do you have a spare key for home? Please help me open the lady's room door."

"Yes."

Not for a moment, the servant brought a spare key.

"Give it to me, please," Hannah said.

She took the key and walked back to Una's room. The moment she opened the door and entered the room.

Bang!

A photo frame suddenly threw at Hannah on her forehead. Blood oozed a bit from the cut.

Una was shocked at what had happened. She didn't want anyone disturbing her but never intended on hurting Hannah in any way. Seeing blood on Hannah's forehead scared her so much that she couldn't even cry.

Hannah tried not to show how much pain she was in as she picked up the picture frame from off of the floor. The photo inside showed Oscar, Salem, and Una all smiling happily together.

Hannah walked over towards the girl who had shrunk into herself due to fear of punishment or retribution for what had just occurred.

"I won't hurt you," Hannah smiled gently at Una.

Una bit down hard on her lip wanting desperately wanting to apologize but too stubborn to do so.

"Do you like this photo?" Hannah asked softly. Una remained silent.

"You must love Oscar and Sal, right?"

Hannah was trying to say something to let Una's guard down. But once again there was no response forthcoming from the little girl.

Hannah sighed and smiled. She asked, "Do you know your Dad had a younger brother?"

On hearing her say so, Una was in tears again because it reminded her that she was not Dad's real daughter.

"Oscar's younger brother is your father."

"I don't want it!" Una kept crying.

"But that's true. You're the daughter of Cian Wells, your father's name is Cian Wells." Hannah continued.

"He and Oscar were orphaned at a young age. They were the only family each other had in the world, and they were very close, just like how Sal and you are now. They always thought of each other and wanted to give their best to one another." Hannah said gently. "But suddenly, one day he passed away. You know who was the most heartbroken?"

"Who?" Una asked curiously.

"Of course, it was your current father, Oscar. He loved his brother so much that losing him would be devastating for him. Luckily, his beloved brother left behind you as a reminder of his love for him, so he can continue to love through you. So do you know how much your dad loves you? It's because he carries all that love for both you and his brother in his heart so deeply. But you said you hate him, do you know how sad he would be?" Hannah explained.

Una sniffled her little nose, feeling sad by what Hannah said.

"Just like how it's hard for you to accept that Oscar isn't your biological father." Hannah continued.

Una didn't know how to respond. The thought of not being her Dad's biological daughter made her feel overwhelmed inside but she also didn't want her dad to be upset either.

"Your dad has been waiting for you in the room." Hannah patted Una's head gently before leaving. "Don't let someone who loves you suffer."

Hannah knew that the best way to convince Una was by making her understand Oscar's love for her and what it would mean if she rejected him. As soon as she left the room, she saw Oscar standing in the hallway. He saw the wound on Hannah's forehead.

"It's just a scratch." She said before walking away from him.

"Thank you." He called out after her.

"It wasn't about helping or comforting anyone. I did this because of Cian."

Oscar chuckled softly, realizing there might be some hope after all thanks to Hannah's words.
