After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 310

Chapter 310 Alluring Body

"Susan, have you ever thought about if Henry truly loved you?" after taking a deep breath, Hannah asked peacefully.
"What do you mean?"
"If he really loved you, he would not sit by when you married another guy. Nor would he choose to let go of you. Of course, there is exception like Manuel. But Manuel let go of you because you didn't love him. He was left no choice but to accept the fact that you and he were to separate from each other. However, a man with faith in his lover will never let go so easily." Hannah stressed out to explain.
Susan refuted, "Henry let go of me because he didn't want me to get hurt. You know what? It was Manuel who threatened me with that accident. Henry didn't want to see me in jail. That was why he chose to let go."
"What about last night? He simply walked away and left you alone while you were burning with philter? Do you think that was how he should do if he really loved you?"
Susan had no idea how to refute.
Why did he leave?
"You must have refused Manuel for a few times last night, right?" asked Hannah.
Biting her own lips, Susan nodded, "Yes."
She had been begging him that she wanted to be sent back to Henry.
"Did Manuel agree?"
Of course he would not agree to it. She wouldn't have felt that bad if he had agreed.
"Do you know what it meant? Everyone man is born to be possessive. No man will allow his beloved girl to sleep with another guy. However, Henry didn't seem to care. He left you alone in hotel. Do you think he loves you?" Hannah's voice sounded aggressive.
Tears started welling up in Susan's eyes.
"I don't believe it! Henry and you are the ones I trust the most in the world. I feel like even if my father were to abandon me, Henry would still stay by my side. He must mean to protect me! You're wrong!" Susan started sobbing.
Before Hannah was about to continue, she hesitated for seconds. Finally, she decided to hold it back. To some extent, Manuel's worry was necessary.
Though Susan appeared tough and energetic, she had been sensitive and weak. That was why she always feigned a careless look so that she could make herself look like too aggressive to be offended. Of course, she also did that to avoid being hurt. Once she got hurt, it would be difficult to cure.
"I just wanna find out a reason to answer my doubt." Hannah didn't intend to continue with the topic, "But I think you should ask Henry about what happened last night. You gotta figure it out."
Susan only responded with tears.
"Alright, stop crying." Hannah changed the subject, "As I said, what has gone is gone. Whatever, you gotta raise up your head to look forward. Besides, I don't think giving away your virginity to Manuel is a kind of pity for you. At least he's better than you in all aspects…"
"Hannah, are you blind? How can you tell he's better than me in all aspects?" Susan suddenly started retorting.
The best thing about Susan was that she didn't easily grow grudge. No matter how harshly Hannah was talking to her, she would never get mad.
"Can't you see my body? Don't you know how alluring my body is?"
"No, I don't know. But perhaps Manuel does." Hannah teased.
"Hannah!" Susan was pissed.
"Alright, I wanna hang up!" Susan felt like ending the call.
The longer the conversation, the more grievance she got. So Susan suddenly hung up the phone. Then she buried herself into the quilt again, ready to back to sleep. However, the next second, she broke away from the quilt.
Hannah was right. She gotta figure out what was in Henry's mind last night. She took a deep breath to calm herself down. Then she dialed Henry's number. As always, he soon answered the call.
"Susan?"
"Henry, can we meet? I wanna talk to you."
"Okay, so do I." Henry agreed.
"Where to meet?"
"The café right next to my office."
"Okay."
After hanging up the call, Susan picked up a nice office suit and put on a light makeup. Then she opened the door.
Outside the room, both Manuel and Tia had finished breakfast. They were sitting on the couch while Tia was asking some language learning tips from him.
Manuel was answering carefully while correcting her pronunciation.
As soon as Susan walked out of the room, Tia said to her friendly, "Ms Phillips, are you feeling better? Do you want some breakfast? I can get some for you."
"No." Susan looked impassive.
"Ms Phillips, where are you going? To the office? Will you be back for lunch? What about dinner?" asked Tia.
"Stop asking!" Susan looked unpleasant.
"I just wanna know when you will have meal at home. I heard from Mr Johnson that you happen to love some dishes I am good at. If you will dine at home, I want you to taste my dishes." Tia looked a bit upset.
Susan was rendered a bit guilty. She didn't expect Tia was out of kindness.
"I won't be back for long." Susan suddenly answered.
Tia paused surprisedly. Before that, she thought Susan wouldn't even answer her.
"Can't you hear me? I won't be back to dine! Don't make any dishes!" Susan huffed.
Tia was confused about her sudden anger.
"Okay…"
Susan took a glare at her. Then she walked out of the door.
Tia returned to the couch. She then noticed that Manuel still looked as usual as if he had been accustomed to Susan's weird temperament.
Before she was about to ask him another question about study, she suddenly reminded herself of something, "Oh, Mr Johnson, what about the blood stain left on your bed sheet? Do you wanna get it changed?"
"No need." Manuel replied casually. Actually, his ears had turned blushed.
Tia secretly smiled when noticing that. Though she didn't like Susan for her temperament, she had to admit that her body was alluring. When she pushed the door open this morning, even she herself found it intoxicating as soon as she saw her naked body. No wonder Manuel seemed so satisfied.
