Revenge On Her Ex After Rebirth novel Chapter 4

After the call, Hannah could not sleep in.

She stretched, got down from the bed and went downstairs.

As she just reached the main hall, she saw Roger Cooper, her eldest uncle and his family visiting them.

That family was always up to no good.

Just because of her grandpa handing most of the family business to her father before he died, Roger had held resentment and he would occasionally pick their flaws. He had even colluded with Charles secretly to seize the family property, which sped up the decline of the Cooper family in the end.

Hannah examined the people in the living room with attention. She noticed Roger had even brought his illegitimate daughter along today.

If she had not mistaken, Roger’s purpose today was to let his illegitimate daughter work at the Cooper Group. The person in charge of the group was now her father, therefore he needed to gain her father’s permission. And Roger wanted to give his daughter an important job position.

Her father had indeed cared for Roger’s pride and agreed to let his daughter join the company in her previous life, yet his daughter was quite ambitious and she had brought tons of trouble and chaos to the company.

Being reborn to the present, how would she let their plan succeed again?

She walked towards them absentmindedly.

“Please have some tea, Hannah.” Mary Cooper, the illegitimate daughter held a cup of tea to her obligingly, looking utmost deferential.

Hannah extended her hand.

The moment she took it over, Mary’s hands slipped and the boiling tea seemed to about to fall on Hannah’s hand, luckily Hannah who was reborn had known her tricks too well.

She pretended to be pitiful in her previous life, looking innocent, yet she was cunning and evil and had kept on setting tricks on her behind her back. She had even slept Charles! She could not tolerate such a goody two shoes and she would not let her off easily no matter what.

Hannah was quick and agile enough to seize Mary’s hand which she was going to retrieve. All the tea then splashed right onto Mary’s hand. Hannah’s action was so quick that no one could tell.

Mary’s shrill scream was heard from the main hall, followed by the breaking sound of the teacup on the ground.

“What’s wrong?” Roger looked a little nervous.

“I know Hannah didn’t do that on purpose.” Mary quickly said.

Tears were all over her face and she looked extremely fragile.

It was no wonder although she was an illegitimate daughter, she was still loved and spoilt by Roger.

Yet the next second, Hannah landed a hard slap right on her face.

She had used all her strength and Mary was stupefied at the scene.

Mary stared at Hannah who was looking aggressive in disbelief.

She knew Hannah too well. She was a docile woman who abode by the rules, too kind but stupid. She would never do such a thing and she could not even bear to see her cry. As long as she cries, her heart would melt. So as the rest of the family members.

Yet Hannah had actually slapped her face now.

“Do you know how much grandpa loved this tea set when he’s alive? Could you possibly compensate for this after breaking it?” Hannah chastised with power.

Mary’s face flushed and she cried even more fiercely. She said with a pitiful look, “No, it’s you who didn’t take it properly, it’s you who…”

“Is it me not taking it or is it because of you not holding it properly before I took it?” Hannah interrupted her. “Why, now you’re starting to tell lies?”

“No, it’s you…” Mary shook her head profusely with an aggrieved look.

“And now you’re still arguing!” Hannah pulled down her face. “Turns out the daughter who doesn’t grow up with the Cooper family really isn’t up to standard. You can’t even hold a teacup properly.”

Roger’s expression changed drastically when he heard Hannah’s teasing remarks against his own daughter.

Yet he had no idea exactly whose fault was it just now. Plus, Mary was indeed an illegitimate daughter and it was inappropriate and difficult for her to join the upper-class community. He actually could not retort and could only hold back his anger.

“Jane,” Hannah turned to Jane Cooper, Roger’s formal daughter, and said, “Your sister is incomparable to you at all.”
