After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 692

Chapter 692 The Badger Game

Hannah lay on the bed and kept thinking about how she could "convince" Cian to sell the island to Melvin with good reason. At the time, what mattered was how to stay alive. She believed Oscar and Cian wouldn't care more about other things than her life. Telling from her conversation with Cian, Cian would agree to sell the island to Melvin for the time.

She was a little worried. As far as she knew Melvin, he wouldn't invite Cian over again. Although she was the one who had done the talking, she was on Melvin's side, so it was also his intention. He wouldn't suck up to Cian and offer the deal again if they failed this time.

Hannah calmed herself and thought about how she could make it happen. She was sure that she could come up with something to deal with it. The clock was ticking. Hannah didn't sleep at all.

"Mrs Wells, time for dinner. Mr Balderston is waiting." A servant knocked at the door and said.

Hannah came back to reality. It was evening time. She thought she must be crazy if she didn't cut herself some slack.

"OK. I'll be right there." Answered Hannah.

"Yes, Mrs Wells."

Hannah got off the couch and dressed. She went to the dining room with Jimmy and found Melvin and Cian waiting and chatting happily as if they didn't fall out because of the deal.

"Mrs Wells," Cian looked at her and greeted her calmly.

"Sorry. I overslept." Hannah apologized.

"Never mind. You're pregnant." Cian said thoughtfully.

Hannah smiled.

"Come sit here." Melvin pointed at the seat next to him.

Hannah hesitated but still did as he said.

Cian glanced at Melvin and cursed him in heart for taking advantage of Hannah once again. But Hannah didn't think much of it. Instead, she looked quite calm and cool.

"Good wine! It deserves its reputation!" said Cian loudly, which had drawn Melvin's attention. Cian meant it. He hated it when Melvin fixed his eyes on Hannah, and he swore he wouldn't let him get his way.

"If you like it, take two bottles when you leave." Said Melvin.

"That's very generous of you, Melvin."

"It's okay."

They had a friendly and comfortable conversation. Cian went to the restroom midway. Damn it. Melvin had almost got him drunk. Cian kept asking for wine himself because he didn't want Melvin to lay his eyes on Hannah. He couldn't stand it.

"I've come up with something," Hannah told him as soon as Cian left the dining room.

Melvin was stunned and looked at her with doubt, "What is it?"

"Buy Harry's Island Manor with 20 million." Hannah went to the point.

"How?"

Actually, Melvin had given up but he surely didn't mind giving it a shot since Hannah said she could make it happen.

"I see Harry is a light drinker." Said Hannah.
