Revenge On Her Ex After Rebirth

Chapter 915

Chapter 915 Oscar's Low Point

Hannah sounded indifferent. At least that was what she conveyed to Oscar through her voice-no

emotion whatsoever. She said, "Okay then. I won't disturb you anymore. See you."

"See you." Oscar's voice trailed off softly after hanging up the phone.

He put down his phone and stared at it blankly without saying anything for a long time. Theodore was

beside him and saw how detached he looked after talking to Hannah on the phone; it seemed like he

had left reality altogether. Theodore thought if he let him continue brooding like this, his soul might

leave his body soon enough.

"Oscar," Theodore called out to him.

Oscar blinked and said, "I need to go back to Kensbury."

"Now?!" Theodore exclaimed in disbelief.

This was such a crucial moment; leaving now could spell disaster.

Oscar nodded.

"Are you crazy? You've waited so long already; why do you want to go back now?! What if something

happens while you're gone?" Theodore couldn't calm down at all.

After all this time of keeping things under control with Rowan simmering beneath the surface, it seemed

like they were about ready for an explosion any day now.

And yet here came Oscar saying that he wanted to go back home.

If he left now, they would give Rowan an opportunity.

"It's Sal's birthday today." Explained Oscar.

Theodore did not pay attention to much detail or dates – not even when his own son's birthday was –

so hearing this from Oscar caught him off guard as well.

No wonder why something seemed off about him since early morning today.

Theodore didn't know what else there was left for him to say or do at this point either way.

He naturally didn't want Oscar to leave. But thinking about how Salem hadn't seen his father in half a

year on such an important day, Oscar would be unbearable not only for Hannah but also himself. He

knew that it would be difficult for anyone including himself if they were put into Oscar's shoes right now.

"I don't know how much longer I can live," Oscar said.

"What are you talking about?" Theodore couldn't stand it anymore.

There was nothing seriously wrong with him.

He was just being overly dramatic.

"Regardless of whether we win or lose, I'm not confident," Oscar stated bluntly.

Theodore was very certain, "Rowan is no match for us."

"No one can guarantee that there won't be any unexpected events." Oscar looked at Theodore.

Theodore pursed his lips.

Yes, nothing in life was ever 100% certain.

He only meant that as things stood now, Rowan couldn't cause too much trouble. But Oscar always

thought more than he did. He might have thought of something that Theodore hadn't anticipated but

was highly likely to happen.

"I'm afraid that when the time comes, I won't even get to see them one last time." Oscar chuckled

lightly at the corner of his mouth.

A faint smile appeared on his face. It seemed like he was mocking himself. Theodore really couldn't

bear seeing Oscar like this anymore. They grew up together since they were young. Theodore knew

exactly how strong a person Oscar was. But ever since Cian died, it seemed like something changed in

him. Oscar had changed a lot.

Theodore sighed, "Then you should go back now. I'll stay here. Even if Rowan wants to do anything, I

can respond immediately from the Capital." © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Oscar looked up at him.

Theodore nodded and said: "Since birth, my father has sold my life to your family anyway."

Oscar still had some emotional fluctuations because of Theodore's words.

"I'll go to hell if you do!" Theodore laughed and exclaimed jokingly,

so as not to make Oscar feel too guilty about leaving the Capital behind.

"Theodore,"

"Don't say anything sentimental," Theodore interrupted him, "I'm afraid I'll get goosebumps."

Oscar pursed his lips.

"I'll arrange a private jet for you right away." Theodore began planning, "Try your best to avoid the

Collins family's attention and hiding from them would be best."

"Based on current timing, you should arrive back around 7 PM which is perfect timing for dinner,"

Theodore said.

Oscar nodded.

"Then let me take care of it." Theodore left directly.

Looking at Theodora's back, Oscar was thinking that, perhaps, Theodore would be the most suitable

candidate.

It was past 5 p. m.

Susan, Manuel, and Justine arrived at Cooper Manor with bags full of gifts.

Salem was one year old and could already walk. Although a bit wobbly, he looked adorable with his

cute little smile as he toddled around.

Susan picked up Salem who was still learning to walk and asked him, "Do you miss me?"

Salem looked at Susan for a moment before breaking into a big smile. He had four teeth showing in his

mouth which made him look even cuter.

"I can't help it. Seeing Sal makes me want to have another baby right away." Susan said as she held

Salem close to her chest.

She wanted to give Salem a sibling so that he would have more family members and more happiness

even without a father present in their lives.

"Just hurry up and have another one then!" Justine chimed in while trying to take Salem from Susan's

arms.

Salem looked at Justine but suddenly turned his body towards Susan, holding onto her tighter than

ever before. It seemed like he didn't want anyone else holding him except for his mother.

Justine's face turned green with envy while Susan felt happy seeing how much her son loved her back.

Hannah couldn't help but admire how strong-willed Susan was for not giving in to pressure from her

mother-in-law.

"You've been together with Manuel for so long now; where are your babies?" Justine started picking on

Susan again. "You said you had good fertility; that you could get pregnant easily? What happened? All

talk no action!"

"Your son knows better than anyone if I'm all talk or not." Replied Susan confidently.

"What do you mean by that?!" Justine fumed.

"Manuel, tell her." Called out Susan as she turned towards Manuel who appeared quite embarrassed

by the situation.

Hannah couldn't help but laugh silently beside them, knowing exactly why they hadn't been able to

conceive yet - something that shouldn't be discussed openly like this.

Quickly changing the topic, Hannah asked about all the gifts they brought along for Salem,

"Oh yeah! We bought these earlier today when I skipped work." Exclaimed Susan, excited-looking. She

seemed to forget about their previous argument altogether.

Justine held back any further comments since they were guests after all-plus arguing with someone like

Susan would only make things worse.

Susan carried Salem and walked towards the gifts.

"I skipped work to buy them this afternoon, and Manuel gave me a dirty look." Said Susan.

Manuel was wordless again, for he was unhappy with her because she didn't tell him to go shopping

together.

"I thought boys would like toy guns and cars, so I bought some." Susan put Salem down on the ground

and picked up a toy car to play with him. "Do you like it, Sal?"

Salem's speech wasn't very clear yet, but he smiled when he looked at the toy car.
