Revenge On Her Ex After Rebirth novel Chapter 793

Chapter 793 The Negotiation

Hannah listened to her calmly. Lillian's voice sounded clear, sweet and sincere, which was nothing like her sister Sarah, who was always superior and aggressive. Normally, men would like a lovable girl like Lillian better.

Hannah smiled lightly and felt Lillian was much smarter than Sarah. Her words sounded friendly but in fact, while being sarcastic. She implied Oscar was obsessed with her pretty face only.

"This is the first time we met. Sadly, you look so weak and pale. In my mind, you're the drop-dead gorgeous woman who's favoured and loved. Why did you put yourself in such a difficult position? Why did you torture yourself?" said Lillian in distress as if she was feeling sorry for Hannah.

Hannah knew what she looked like. It scared her out when she looked at herself in the mirror this morning. She had a hatchet face and she looked skinny all over except her belly. Her face was deadly pale with two terrible dark eye circles on it. Anyway, she had nothing to do with a pretty lady.

Hannah, who had had enough of her hypocrisy, smiled again and cut to the chase, "Just tell me what you want, Mrs Wells."

Lillian looked at Hannah. She was well-prepared for their first face-to-face confrontation. She knew she would have to meet Hannah when she got Manuel's call the day before. After all, she was curious about Hannah, wondering what she'd got to have made Oscar so obsessed with her. That was why she decided to accept Manuel's request without hesitation.

She had recognized Hannah in the corridor. It was true that Hannah didn't look much alike the woman in her memory, but she knew it was her because no one else except Hannah could stay in such a luxurious ward and be protected by half a dozen of guards. She ignored Hannah on purpose only to play tough. She knew it was a smart choice to be above the rival at the beginning of the confrontation.

She stuck with the plan. All she wanted by beating around the bushes was to take the initiative. However, Hannah was difficult to deal with. She remained alert and hostile even when Lillian was playing nice. She even turned up her nose at her friendliness.

Lillian put on a pretty smile and said peacefully, "Yup. I do want something from you. I'm here to convince you."

Hannah looked at her.

"I guess you know Oscar and I got married for a political reason, and we don't love each other. Our marriage is for interests only. You don't have to hate his guts. He still loves you." Said Lillian.

"Do you mind your husband loving another woman?" asked Hannah.

Lillian was stunned. She didn't imagine Hannah would suddenly shift the focus to her, and drag her into their love relationship. She was lost for words for the time.

"I think you mind it." Said Hannah lightly. It looked like she was answering the question for Lillian, but in fact, she was telling Lillian that she saw her bearing ill will and she could just drop the act.

Lillian pursed her lips and said, "Well, yep. But I don't care much about it now because we haven't fallen in love with each other yet. What I care more about is the future of Oscar and my family. So, I'm here to ask you to stop torturing Oscar. He's got a lot to do in Northfield, and he isn't supposed to waste all the time on you."

"Hannah, you should also think about yourself." Said Lillian bluntly.

Hannah looked at her.

"How much longer do you think Oscar can rule Northfield if he doesn't get himself together? If he fell from power, don't you think your family would be involved? Once Oscar stepped down, my family or any other family would take power and knock down all the families related to him. Oscar only took your family business away, and to the bottom of it, he's protecting you and your family from the dirty political wars. He's the Chief Commander and has the power to keep your family safe. But none of you could get away with it once he lost power."

Hannah was shocked and coldly stared at Lillian, who she thought was the best negotiation expert that she had ever met, and had hit the nail on the head.

"You mean, I shouldn't leave Oscar now. Instead, I should play up to him, because he can keep my family safe." Said Hannah sarcastically.

"Believe it or not, it's the fact. As the commander, Oscar is controlling the lives of millions. I hope you can wise up and give it a second thought." Lillian said seriously.

Hannah pursed her lips hard and said nothing. Lillian stopped talking, knowing a smart woman like Hannah, would make a correct choice.
