"What?!" Susan screamed, unable to accept it.
Manuel reminded her to keep her voice down, afraid that their son would be born deaf.
"Why did she leave?" Susan became anxious and flustered.
Oscar's body stiffened when he heard what Theodore said.
Theodore explained, "During this time, Oscar asked me to keep an eye on their movements. I just
received a message saying they booked a flight tomorrow at noon."
"Did you ask Theodore to investigate Besse?" Susan asked Oscar.
Oscar didn't answer. It was as good as admitting it.
"I think I figured out why you wanted to take Sal and Una to the amusement park today. Was it because
they were there too?!" Theodore said with a smirk on his face.
When Oscar mentioned going to the amusement park earlier, he hadn't realized it yet. But later on, he
figured it out quickly enough.
Oscar glanced at Theodore, who quickly lowered his head and ate his food silently.
"What about the cake?!" Susan suddenly got excited.
Oscar frowned.
"Don't tell me you forgot even the cake?! How can you call yourself a father?!" Susan looked at Oscar
with some anger.
Una hurriedly spoke up from beside them, "Auntie Susan, that beautiful lady also criticized Daddy like
this today."
"If she is Hannah and sees how you treat Sal like this, won't she be heartbroken?" Susan exclaimed in
frustration.
Susan had rendered Oscar speechless with her words. It was Sal who had been obediently eating
dinner all along but suddenly looked up at Susan when she mentioned Hannah's name.
"Fortunately, I bought one," Susan said, suddenly grinning widely.
Manuel was rendered wordless by Susan.
"Max," Susan called Max, who was still busy working nearby.
"Mrs Johnson?"
"Can you please bring over the cake I bought for Sal? We'll blow out candles for him."
"We haven't even finished dinner yet," Theodore complained unhappily,
"Besse is leaving tomorrow anyway! Tonight is my only chance." Susan replied urgently.
Theodore felt speechless towards them both. Oscar had become like this, and now so has Susan. Max
brought over the cake, giving Salem five candles. Salem sat in the middle position, feeling shy while
everyone sang 'Happy Birthday'.
Susan was very excited and could easily lift everyone's spirits. Una also liked joining in with others.
She followed along happily behind everything that happened around her. Everyone followed and
started singing. The atmosphere was still very pleasant. After finishing the song, they prepared to blow Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
out the candles.
"Wait, let's sing it again," Susan suggested.
"Why do you always have so many stupid ideas?" Theodore retorted at her.
Susan couldn't be bothered with Theodore. She called Max over and said, "Max, can you help us
record a video with your phone?"
Susan called everyone together and they sang the birthday song again before letting Salem make a
wish and blowing out the candles.
"What did you wish for, Sal?" Una asked, curious.
"Keep it secret," Susan said while taking the smartphone from Max's hand.
After watching the video, she told Salem, "If you say your wish out loud, it won't come true."
Salem quickly nodded in agreement while Una wrinkled her nose in disappointment.
"Let's cut the cake now." Susan led everyone on.
With Susan's help, Salem cut a piece for each person present.
"Sal, cut one more piece for me to take away." Said Susan
"Okay."
Theodore teased him saying, "Why are you so greedy?"
"You mind your own business!" Susan snapped back at Theodore, who then rubbed his nose saying,
"You're pregnant so you're always right!"
Everyone ate their cake quietly but Oscar seemed distracted while only Susan was enjoying herself
thoroughly.
"You should eat less," Manuel reminded her beside her plate, "The doctor told us not to eat too much
sugary food."
"I didn't eat that much," Susan replied with an unbothered looking.
"That's a second one."
"The baby is eating with me, what is wrong with having two pieces each?"
Manuel was left speechless by her response while Theodore laughed beside them saying, "Manuel,
look at you!"
"Our happiness is something beyond your understanding. You stupid cuckold!"
"Susan!"
Susan smiled smugly as she finished off her cake in three bites before turning towards Manuel to tell
him, "Let's leave now."
Manuel had only eaten half of his meal but he put down his utensils anyway. That was just how things
were when he dealt with Susan.
"Sal," As she left she kissed Salem on his little cheek saying, "Happy Birthday."
"Thank you, Auntie Susan." Salem blushed after being kissed by Susan.
"When it's time I'll have a baby girl to be the wife of my godson." Added Sue cheerfully
"Susan! Relatives cannot marry each other."
"Never mind, let's just forget about it, I'll have a little boy to play with you."
"Okay," Salem answered while smiling.
Susan patted Salem's head and left with Manuel reluctantly.
Oscar envied Susan at that moment-Susan could get close to her, while he could not.
Susan arrived at the hotel with the cake. Then they checked into a deluxe suite, After that, she begged
Manuel for finding out Bess's room number. Of course, Manuel couldn't turn her down.
After a while, as Manuel had done his work, he suddenly stopped what he was doing.
"What?" Susan asked worriedly, "Don't tell me they've left here."
"Nah." Manuel shook his head and continued, "They're in separate rooms."
"Is it a problem?" Susan asked as she felt relieved.
"Do you think a couple would be in separate rooms?"
Just then Susan realized something important.
"You mean, they're not a couple?" said Susan, excited.
If that was the case, then there was a good chance that Besse and Hannah were the same person.
"Not all, I mean, they're not at that stage in their relationship."
"But we've got their information before, they grew up together. And you used it to prove me wrong while
I said Besse was Hannah, didn't you?"
