Revenge On Her Ex After Rebirth novel Chapter 684

Chapter 684 Coming Storm (6)

Then Oscar texted back, "Thank you, Mr Balderston."

After that, he made a call to Theodore, asking him to help him get away from those spies sent by the Collins.

About twenty minutes later, Oscar managed to reach the Balderston Manor.

Melvin was expecting him in the parlour, seemingly sulky.

Oscar could tell how exasperated he appeared as those among the two aristocratic families hated to be threatened.

He sneered, "Oscar, you gotta tell me how's your plan against the Collins first."

"No, I gotta meet Hannah first." Oscar insisted, "Mr Balderston, I bet you are generous enough to grant my wish first."

Melvin's face turned livid. But finally, while glaring at him, Melvin gestured to the servant, who soon noticed what he meant. He turned around to walk away. Soon, he led Hannah here.

As always, Jimmy was following beside her. When seeing Oscar, Jimmy felt like being overwhelmed with mixed feelings. However, Hannah still maintained a composed look. Though it had only been days since they separated from each other, Oscar felt like it had been centuries. Before he was about to walk over, Melvin suddenly interrupted, "Stay where you are."

Oscar stopped abruptly.

Hannah stood still to watch him composedly.

"I did agree to your wish to see her, but it doesn't mean that you can touch her or meet her alone." Melvin then continued.

Sulkiness appeared on Oscar's face. Although he had expected this to happen, still, he was a bit upset.

After a few seconds of pause, he asked, "Hannah, are you okay?"

Hannah sneered to reply, "Oscar, what kind of answer do you expect from me?"

Oscar seemed to be choked.

"If I am to tell you that I am feeling good when living somewhere strange and dangerous, are you gonna believe that?"

Oscar responded with silence. Obviously, he had no idea what to reply.

"Sorry."

"It's okay." Said Hannah composedly as she knew there was nothing else she could do.

"But I don't have the right to hate you, don't you think so?"

Oscar stared at her.

"I won't hate you. Besides, I will be anticipating you. After all, my life depends on your action. I don't even dare to get you annoyed. I wonder if I will be killed if you get exasperated." Hannah sneered to reply.

"Hannah, stop." Oscar felt like writhing in pain.

Every single word of hers pierced his heart. He felt like being suffocated.

"Okay, I will shut up if that's what you ask for. I will do whatever you want to keep myself alive." Said Hannah obediently.

Survival had been her earnest demand.

Oscar then averted his eyes, struggling to hold back his emotion.

Hannah appeared to be much tougher than he expected. Of course, she knew the intention of his arrival. And she perfectly feigned a conflict with him. But meanwhile, he knew how disappointed she truly felt about him. Soon, Oscar managed to compose himself.

"I have figured out a plan against the Collins. And I have managed to lead them into the trap I set up." Said Oscar.

"Tell me about it." Melvin looked a bit more serious.

"I told the Collins about the deal between us."

As soon as he finished, rage crawled up onto Melvin's face.

"I gotta admit that I did this to expedite the war because I want Hannah back as soon as possible."

"Why didn't you talk to me first? Or are you asking for a quick death?" Melvin's face went twisted out of fury.

"Mr Balderston, though I did this out of selfishness, I have also taken the overall situation into consideration. After all, I can't afford to risk Hannah's life. I made this decision because I can assure you of success."

"You'd better dream of a quick death right now!" Melvin gritted his teeth.

"The fake peace between you and the Collins has been lasting for decades, under the surface of which conspiracy has been long brewing. The reason for this long peace is that neither you nor the Collins is confident enough to destroy either side. But what if there is such an opportunity? I bet you will never hesitate to seize it. After all, I don't think you would expect another decade or two or even more of the fake peace."

Melvin glared at him coldly, showing no response.

"So I instigated the Collins to start the war first." Oscar stressed out his words to explain.
