After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 515

Chapter 515 Conspiracy (8) Insecurity

"No, he did not threaten me. He seemed to have a well-thought-out plan, which makes me worried," Hannah tried to hold back her feelings, "I don't know what Charles had plotted."

"I should have killed that troublemaker!" Theodore grounded out between clenched teeth.

Hannah glanced at him and chose to swallow her questions in the end.

She said frankly, "Don't be led by Charles. He meant to irritate me so that we lost our cool. During the phone call with him, it struck me that the best way to get into Oscar's flat was to create a diversion."

"What do you mean?" Theodore was serious.

"We could make them believe that our destination was not the apartment but somewhere else." Hannah continued, "I have thought up a good place, the City Hall of River Town, which they are nervous about and will prevent us from harassing at all costs."

"That is, deceive them that we are heading for the City Hall of River Town so that their surveillance of the apartment will let up?"

"Yes." Hannah nodded. She caught a glimpse of Theodore's thigh.

"You could say. I can do anything as long as I'm alive." Theodore said.

Hannah bit her lips. She wondered what Oscar was to Theodore that made the latter lay down his life for the former. But she knew she couldn't ask.

Hannah said, "Tomorrow, you first sneak into the City Hall, staying out of sight; then you manage to be somehow noticed. Try to act as convincingly as possible. After you catch their attention, Jimmy and I will get into the flat. I considered letting Jimmy help you initially, but I'm afraid that I can't manage to get away if found by them and will get you two to rescue me like I did last time." Hannah was outspoken, though she felt sorry after saying that. When it came to Oscar, she sometimes found herself useless.

Theodore appreciated the way she made things clear. Many people, especially business people, are used to gaining their end by hypocritic means. On the contrary, Hannah was frank in telling him that she needed Jimmy. Though she knew Theodore also needed Jimmy's favour, she expressed her thoughts with nothing hidden.

"No worries. I can handle it." Theodore said.

"OK," Hannah said no more about this.

She added earnestly, "When you get into the City Hall tomorrow, you will likely be caught for breaking into there without permission. You have to get ready for that. It was not illegal according to the law of Northfield, though; you can't avoid detention because of the current situation."

"The detention hardly worries me. What worries me is could you make it by yourself?"

"I have to make it." Said Hannah firmly.

"Deal." Theodore accepted her scheme. Oscar had said that Theodore could listen to Hannah if something happened to him. Now that Oscar trusted her, then so did he.
