After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 178

Chapter 178 Congratulations

She looked like a fairy falling from the heaven in that fantastic dress.

Confused and also flattered, she had no idea what Oscar meant while staring at him.

Before that, she even wondered if Oscar would only welcome her with a few mockeries.

As sharp-tongued as he had been, Hannah wouldn't simply stay quiet if he found himself jealous of her achievement.

"Whatever." Oscar reached out his hand. Then a man handed him a large bouquet of rose from the passenger seat.

Though his move somehow looked a bit funny, he still appeared charming coupled with his delicate face.

Hannah was rendered a bit nervous because of him.

She managed to stay composed while looking at him approaching.

As he got closer, he actually threw the crutches away.

"Look at me." Said Oscar a bit domineeringly.

Hannah got speechless.

"Hey, I think I look better than other guys, right?" Oscar added naturally.

Hannah still responded with silence.

Oscar suddenly took a deep breath to put on a serious look.

Seeing that, Hannah felt nervous again.

She somehow started to expect something special.

"Congratulations!" he handed over the bouquet.

Hannah frowned, 'Congratulate for what?'

"Congratulations for the perfect end of your product launch. But I am sorry I didn't have enough time to prepare a glee feast for your achievement this time." Oscar smiled and continued, "Hey, just take it."

Though she still felt a bit annoyed because of his seemingly overbearing look, she reached out her hand to take over the bouquet, "Thank you."

"Do you like it?" asked Oscar.

"Yeah." She answered.

All ladies favored bouquet.

"If you like it, don't you think you are gonna do something as return?" he smiled dashingly.

Her face suddenly went blushed.

Then she saw him spreading out his arms.

Obviously, he wanted a hug as return.

Her heartbeat started running wild.

What a sophisticated playboy!

She told herself again she gotta stay sober.

Now she had something important to talk about. After taking a deep breath, she asked, "Oscar, do you mind being compared?"

Oscar frowned, with his arms spread out still.

"Would you mind if people start saying that I am too excellent to be your wife? Would you mind if I steal your thunder? Would you get embarrassed because of my talent? Would you…"

Before she finished, Oscar suddenly gave her a tug to wrap her tight with both arms. With her eyes wide open, she bumped onto his chest, because of which her nose felt a bit of pain.

The next second, she clearly felt his warmth from the hug.

Startled, she accidentally dropped the bouquet because of his sudden move.

"Hey, don't be panic." His husky voice sounded from above.

Hannah couldn't help clenching his suit.

Even though he had kissed her for so many times, she had never experienced such a hug before, from which she could smell a special kind of scent of Oscar.

She felt a sense of security at this moment.

"No. Actually, I feel proud of you." He whispered to her.

Once upon a time, she believed that her achievement should be a kind of pride for her partner.

However, when Charles got into her life, she even started to doubt if she was wrong about it.

Now she knew the answer-Charles was being too narrow-minded to match her.

It felt like becoming something common.

However, the relationship between them was special-it didn't even feel the same as that between a common couple or even lovers.

Lovers?

At the thought of that, Hannah seemed to feel touched.

"Give me a hand." Said Oscar.

Before Hannah showed her consent, Oscar added, "my legs go numb."

Then he laid his arm on her shoulder and leaned against her.

Hannah almost stumbled down.

She struggled to keep herself steady.

He was so heavy!

"Can't you walk yourself?" Hannah looked a bit annoyed.

"Can't you see what happened to my leg?" Oscar refuted.

"But you got crutches!"

"They fell on the ground!"

"Pick them up!"

"I got no hands to pick them up. I need both hands to hug you!"

'Can you stop flirting?' Hannah complained to herself.

Hannah struggled to help him get into the limousine.

Not until then did she notice Theodore sitting on the passenger seat.

Of course, so did Theodore.

As soon as he noticed her expression, he said frankly, "I saw you reaching out your tongue just now."

Hearing that, Hannah felt like kicking his ass.
