Chapter 515 Conspiracy (8) Insecurity

"No, he did not threaten me. He seemed to have a well-thought-out plan, which makes me worried,"

Hannah tried to hold back her feelings, "I don't know what Charles had plotted."

"I should have killed that troublemaker!" Theodore grounded out between clenched teeth.

Hannah glanced at him and chose to swallow her questions in the end.

She said frankly, "Don't be led by Charles. He meant to irritate me so that we lost our cool. During the

phone call with him, it struck me that the best way to get into Oscar's flat was to create a diversion."

"What do you mean?" Theodore was serious.

"We could make them believe that our destination was not the apartment but somewhere else."

Hannah continued, "I have thought up a good place, the City Hall of River Town, which they are

nervous about and will prevent us from harassing at all costs."

"That is, deceive them that we are heading for the City Hall of River Town so that their surveillance of

the apartment will let up?"

"Yes." Hannah nodded. She caught a glimpse of Theodore's thigh.

"You could say. I can do anything as long as I'm alive." Theodore said.

Hannah bit her lips. She wondered what Oscar was to Theodore that made the latter lay down his life

for the former. But she knew she couldn't ask.

Hannah said, "Tomorrow, you first sneak into the City Hall, staying out of sight; then you manage to be

somehow noticed. Try to act as convincingly as possible. After you catch their attention, Jimmy and I

will get into the flat. I considered letting Jimmy help you initially, but I'm afraid that I can't manage to get

away if found by them and will get you two to rescue me like I did last time." Hannah was outspoken,

though she felt sorry after saying that. When it came to Oscar, she sometimes found herself useless.

Theodore appreciated the way she made things clear. Many people, especially business people, are

used to gaining their end by hypocritic means. On the contrary, Hannah was frank in telling him that

she needed Jimmy. Though she knew Theodore also needed Jimmy's favour, she expressed her

thoughts with nothing hidden.

"No worries. I can handle it." Theodore said.

"OK," Hannah said no more about this.

She added earnestly, "When you get into the City Hall tomorrow, you will likely be caught for breaking

into there without permission. You have to get ready for that. It was not illegal according to the law of

Northfield, though; you can't avoid detention because of the current situation."

"The detention hardly worries me. What worries me is could you make it by yourself?"

"I have to make it." Said Hannah firmly.

"Deal." Theodore accepted her scheme. Oscar had said that Theodore could listen to Hannah if

something happened to him. Now that Oscar trusted her, then so did he.

"During my detention, if I have, if you need someone for help, you can find Manuel," Theodore added,

"He is not just your childhood friend and a genius hacker. His ability and clout are comparable to mine.

In other words, he can support everything when I am away.

Hannah frowned.

"Don't ask anything. You will figure it out one day. But it is not me or Manual who tells you that. Maybe

Oscar will tell you, or you'll find it yourself."

"Fine," Hannah nodded and looked at the clock, "It's getting late. Time to sleep. Tomorrow we act

separately."

"All right."

Before going upstairs, Hannah couldn't help to say, "I have no idea who you guys are, what your world

is like, and how powerful you are. I want to tell you that I shall never be your burden. If I get in your way

one day, I will choose to go."

Theodore was astonished. He didn't expect Hannah would say so. None of them took Hannah as a

burden. Although they were surprised when Oscar chose to be with Hannah, they thought that there

was nothing unsuitable and nothing profitable in her coming. They were ready to solve problems for

her, and he did, though just some effortless things.

Instead, Hannah always kept calm and saved them much trouble.

What she said did not make sense.

Did she mean finding herself insignificant in Oscar's world made her insecure?

Theodore smiled and asked, "What are you doubting about yourself?"

Hannah looked at him, "I always feel that I am distant from you guys."

"No, never. You didn't know that we all saw you grow up." Theodore said with a smirk.

Hannah was shocked. She couldn't help but ask, "Were you guys reborn, or did you travel through

time…"

"What's on your mind!" Theodore was speechless, "Are you addicted to fiction? What I mean by 'saw

you grow up' is we grew up with you without being noticed. And you caught our notice because Oscar

has fallen in love with you since an early age! Didn't you ever doubt why he agreed to marry you so

smoothly when you asked him to? You know, he is such a clean guy who never let women touch him,

let alone get married."

Hannah couldn't believe her ears: did he say Oscar was a "clean" guy? Were they talking about the

same "Oscar"?

"Oops." finding himself spilling the beans, Theodore said, "Anyway, don't underestimate yourself. Your

ability has amazed me during this period. You are an able woman, not only in your world but in my

world. I'm telling the truth!"

What Theodore said did console her. These days, she always felt that Oscar was no simple man who

must have a stunning background. She thought the distance between them was getting longer, which

was hard for her to catch him. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Hannah took a deep breath. There were no more questions, no more thoughts. The only important

thing for her now was to rescue Oscar, and nothing else mattered.
