After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 1005

Chapter 1005 Salem's Recitation

Besse entered the room and looked at everything in it, which was as clean as the master bedroom. She wondered whether Oscar had brought Salem to live with him here.

She sat on the expensively carpeted floor and looked at some of the educational toys carefully prepared. She picked up a Lego and played with it for a while.

She suddenly realized that she was bored enough to play with kids' toys over there. But the thought that Salem might once have played here strangely made her sense a kind of connection, which urged her to experience the same thing that had been done by that boy.

Besse made a random figure on the Lego wall. She read it out, "Salem."

She smiled. Sure enough, that boy was a particular favourite of hers.

As she got up from the ground and prepared to leave the room, she saw something written on the Lego wall, hidden by a movable table.

She moved the table and saw the words: "When can mom come home?"

Besse felt a stinging pain in her heart. She could feel a lot of sad feelings about a boy from that sentence.

Was Salem missing his mom?

Although the boy seemed to understand many things, in private, he was just a child who wanted to be protected and loved.

After a moment of silence, she picked up a pen nearby and wrote under the words: "Mom never left home. Mom is always in your heart, and you are in Mom's heart."

Hannah should not blame her for doing so, Besse thought to herself.

Just when she put down the pen, the door was opened. Besse was startled by the sudden noise.

She turned her head warily and saw Oscar, who was also looking at her with surprise.

After a few seconds of silence, Oscar uttered the words, "Sorry to bother you."

He apologized suddenly and closed the door behind him. Because of his words, Besse was silent with a mix of emotions. Finally, she hurriedly opened the door to catch up.

"Oscar!"

Oscar was almost fleeing away in the corridor but he stopped when Besse called his name. Besse stepped forward. Oscar turned around to face her and explained, "I thought you were taking a nap."

So, was he trying to avoid her?

"I want to pack a few things from here," Oscar said.

It was as if he was afraid she would be repulsed by him, so he kept explaining why he appeared here.

Besse bit her lip.

Was she that fierce?!

Oscar seemed genuinely afraid of her.

Come to think of it, she wasn't gentle with him.

But it wouldn't make him run away just by seeing her, right?!

Was it because of the unpleasantness of the car today? She did seem a little too much.

She said, "I'm sorry. I said a lot of hurtful things to you today because I was too impatient."

Oscar was surprised by Besse's apology.

He just looked at her like that.

The emotions were difficult to conceal but still madly concealed by him.

"I know," he said.

He knew why she got angry and also knew how much resistance she had towards him.

"Susan told me our lawsuit will go to court in a week," Besse said trying to ease the awkwardness between them.

After apologizing, it felt like the atmosphere between them didn't improve and became even more solemn.
