After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 865

Chapter 865 Lillian’s Show Time

"Cian and I met at a party. He had me at "hello", and we dated soon afterwards. I was still in college and my father was very strict with me. So, we didn't go public and we kept a secret relationship. I didn't know Cian was the heir of the Wells family until he died. I didn't know he was Oscar's younger brother as well." Lillian said sadly and choked with sobs.

Hannah stared at her without a blink. She had thought of many possibilities. She guessed that Oscar had to marry Lillian and ally with the Collins family for the reign of the Wells family. But she had never imagined that Lillian was carrying Cian's child.

She looked at Lillian coldly and heard her saying, "I realized I was pregnant after Cian died. I didn't want to give up on his child but my father didn't want it to ruin my reputation and forced me to do the abortion. So I told Oscar. To keep Cian's only child, Oscar made a deal with my father and gave him whatever he wanted."

Hannah listened and recalled Oscar suddenly decided to make peace with the Collins family when the war broke out. She always thought Oscar wasn't powerful enough to knock them down and it would be a loss for both sides if they didn't cease fire. It turned out it was for Cian's child.

She remembered Cian once told her that he was seeing someone, but he didn't love her. It was like sex partners. It wasn't for sex only. It was more likely that Cian did it for political reasons. Probably, he dated Lillian to use her. With the help of Lillian, he could keep his life or rise from the ashes if the Wells family failed to take power.

The Wells family had considered a lot for Cian, but he died to save her. Anyway, Hannah found it hard to accept. Oscar had done all those terrible things only to protect Cian's child. Suddenly, she didn't have a good reason to hate him. She smiled lightly to hold back her feelings.

Lillian saw her doing nothing and added, "Seriously, I don't want to see more misunderstandings between you and Oscar. I must tell the truth. I don't want you to hate Oscar for this car accident. I don't want you to hurt each other again. I wish you could bury the hatchet by learning the truth."

What? She wanted them to bury the hatchet? How was that going to happen? She couldn't forget and forgive him since Manuel and her child were still in danger.

"You mean you'll leave Oscar?" asked Hannah.

Lillian was stunned, thinking how Hannah could be so hardhearted. Unbelievably, Hannah told her to leave Oscar though she had told the truth and made a touching speech. Cian had died for Hannah, and she should be supposed to give in for his child. However, she was still mean and pushy, leaving Lillian no choice.

Lillian simmered with rage but still put on a good face, "Actually, I never wanted to be with Oscar for Cian's child, but my father is insistent. I can leave Oscar, but I'm just afraid the world will be in chaos again if I do so. I can't stop my father, and I can't even stop him from killing Cian's child."
