Chapter 435 Come for a Talk
"No." Rose hurried to deny.
As busy as she had been, she didn't have time for any relationship.
Besides, she would rather spend more time on work.
"So how can you tell?"
"At least I have seen similar things though I never experience." Rose replied.
"Alright, Rose, just go for lunch." Hannah smiled. Of course, she just wanted to joke with Rose.
"Okay." Rose nodded and was about to leave.
"Wait," Said Hannah suddenly.
"Anything else?"
"Tell Jimmy to dine with you."
During usual days, Hannah always led Jimmy to the canteen to dine together.
As far as she could tell from the size of the lunch box, it didn't contain the proportion for Jimmy.
Moreover, Jimmy had considerable appetite.
"Okay." Rose nodded.
"Jimmy, follow Rose to the canteen for lunch."
"Okay."
Then Jimmy left together with Rose. Watching their back, Hannah somehow believed that they could
be a perfect match for each other. If neither of them engaged in any relationship after a period of time,
she would like to bring them together.
At the thought of that, Hannah couldn't help smiling. But currently speaking, Jimmy and Rose didn't
seem to match each other.
Suddenly, she recalled the matter between Susan and Manuel. So she made a call to Susan.
"Oh, you still remember me? Hannah," Susan's voice was mixed with unhappiness.
"Sorry, I am too busy."
"Don't lie to me. I know Oscar was back a few days ago. Man before friends, huh?" Susan refuted.
"You know Oscar only stayed for a few days. Of course I gotta spend some time with him." Hannah
explained.
"You love him more than me. I know it."
"Hey, Susan, don't be jealous. I bet you must be feeling bored during these days."
"Yes! I feel like dying of boredom. I have been losing in game these days. I feel like I am gonna smash
my phone!"
"You mean the game is the cause of your bad mood? Or is there any other reason?"
"What do you mean?" All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"I wanna know if you and Manuel…"
"No!" Susan hurried to interrupt.
Whenever she recalled Manuel's disappointing reaction that night, she felt like tearing him apart,
She was rather dispirited during these days because of him.
"Let's have dinner tonight and talk about it."
"I don't wanna talk!"
"Susan…"
"But dinner is fine. Old place?" Susan sounded expectant.
"You're under recovery. I don't think you should dine outside. I will come to your house after work."
"Alright." Susan pouted. But she wanted to enjoy some spicy food, since plain food at home was killing
her.
"Alright, see you tonight."
"See you."
Then, Hannah continued with her lunch. She got to admit that the food Max provided tasted far much
better than of the canteen. So she consumed more food than usual. After that, she put away the lunch
box.
Feeling stuffed with food, she didn't want to take a nap so soon. So she stood up, walked over to the
window and made a call to Oscar. As expected, Oscar picked it up immediately as if he knew she was
calling.
But he didn't call her to let her know how he was doing, she complained to herself.
"Honey," said Oscar in his husky and enchanting voice.
Upon hearing that, she felt like her heartbeat was running out of control.
From 'Miss Cooper' to 'Mrs Wells', from 'Mrs Wells' to 'honey', she could clearly feel how much he loved
her.
"Do you miss me?" asked Oscar when noticing that Hannah didn't respond.
"What can I do even if I miss you?" Hannah answered, displeased with the departure.
"At least I will be happy to know you miss me."
Hannah got speechless by his unexpected reply.
"But I miss you so much. There are three months left. I will do my best to return to you safely."
"Do you think something is gonna happen?" Hannah asked seriously.
"Probably." Oscar nodded.
"But…"
"Don't worry. I will be fine." Oscar comforted her. As always, he grew her worry and then eased it.
"Alright, I am gonna report to the City Hall. Don't forget to miss me." Oscar seemed to be in a hurry.
"Okay." Hannah was sensible enough to know when to end the talk.
Though she missed him, she wouldn't attach herself to him when he got something important to deal
with.
"Take care. And let me know as soon as there is any good news about you." Said Oscar.
Of course, the good news referred to her pregnancy.
"Just get down to your business." Said Hannah.
Then she hung up the phone. After that, she couldn't help touching her own belly. She somehow
started to feel nervous.
…
At 2:00 PM, Hannah set off for the anniversary ceremony. Tan Laurier, her chief assistant, shared the
same car with her.
Hannah didn't ask Rose to attend with her for Rose needed more time to handle her busy work. And
Hannah didn't want her to work overtime so often.
Hannah's voice broke the silence inside the car, "How do you feel about your job? Are you okay with
that?"
"Yes, I am making myself familiar with how the Group runs itself. I am sure I will adapt to it soon."
"How many days do you need?"
"Three days." He replied after some consideration.
"Three days later, report to me about your opinion regarding how the Group runs itself. You don't need
to prepare any written report. Just report to me orally."
"Okay."
Hannah nodded. She didn't intend to continue the conversation as both of them weren't much familiar
with each other. Though she appreciated his talent, it still needed some time to see if he was suitable
for the company and capable enough to work for her.
The ceremony lasted for about three hours. When it was over, it was time to get off work. Since
Hannah had an appointment with Susan, she didn't intend to work overtime tonight. So she left the
ceremony and told Tan to leave with the other senior executives.
On her way there, she made a call to notice Susan that she was coming. However, Susan was still
sleeping when she arrived.
Looking drowsy, Susan opened her eyes, "Oh…welcome…I just wanna take a nap…"
If it weren't for the fact that Hannah was going to have a serious talk with her, she would definitely walk
away.
