Revenge On Her Ex After Rebirth novel Chapter 990

Chapter 990 A “Troublesome” Kid

The car arrived at Oscar's castle. The castle was heavily guarded. Undoubtedly, this was the least likely place for Besse to be disturbed. It was for this reason that she agreed to stay with Oscar.

She realized that she might have been too bold, as Northfield Commander's home was not a place where ordinary people could easily live in. But since she had come here, she decided to make the best of it.

"Commander," Max greeted Oscar in the hall when they arrived. At that moment, he looked surprised when he saw Besse.

"Max, please arrange a room for Miss Besse to stay for a few days," Oscar instructed him respectfully.

"Yes," With that said, Max left the hall.

"You can sit down and wait for a while," Oscar said to Besse as they walked towards the sofa. She nodded and sat down while he took his seat at some distance from her on another sofa nearby.

Besse frowned slightly but didn't say anything about it. Perhaps because of her previous rejection of him, Oscar seemed very careful and deliberately kept his distance from her, which suited her just fine.

After sitting down on the sofa, Oscar turned on the TV and placed the remote control in front of Besse. "You can choose the channel you like, I'll go change my clothes."

"Thank you." She smiled politely.

Oscar then left with Salem by his side without showing any emotions or reactions whatsoever.

Besse saw them leave and she started reading the news on her phone. Those contents were going out of control. But she found nothing about Oscar and her presence at the airport earlier. Indeed, Oscar didn't have an intention, and nor did the media dare to spin him.

Meanwhile, Oscar started calming down only when he went into his room. He had been nervous since Besse agreed with his suggestion, afraid that she would regret it abruptly. Oscar even thought that was the longest journey he had ever had in his whole life, from the hotel to the castle, during which he was overwhelmed by worry, fear and torture, though she had never gone back on her words.

"Dad?" Salem felt surprised to see Oscar being numbed like this.

He remembered what his dad had been on the television-always calm and confident, no matter how big an occasion might be. He had never looked so lost as now.

Oscar snapped out of his thoughts and said to Salem, "Go take a shower."

"Right now?" Salem was a bit confused.

"We just went out and sweated a bit. We're dirty." Oscar explained.

Salem sniffed his clothes. "I don't smell anything."

"Just listen to me." Oscar insisted.

"Okay." Salem obediently nodded. "Then I'll go back to my room and take a shower."

"I'll go with you," Oscar added.

"Together?" Salem was surprised. He had always been bathed by Max since he was young, so it was unexpected for Oscar to suggest they bathe together.

"Take off your clothes." Without giving Salem any chance to change his mind, Oscar walked straight into the bathroom.

Salem felt both flattered and surprised but followed his dad into the bathroom anyway. They took a quick bath together, but Salem didn't know how his dad managed to wash him so fast; there seemed like an urgency in their actions that he couldn't quite put his finger on.
