After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire

Chapter 336 The Dinner

Hannah's lips were swollen. She glared at Oscar, looking at his contented face.

He even said shamelessly, "It's not unfair at all."

It was so unfair for her. In the present life, she didn't have any boyfriends, except for Oscar. But he had

had a dozen of girlfriends, who had been exposed by the press. She had no idea how many unexposed

girlfriends he had ever had.

The more she thought about it, the more vexed she got. Hannah simply turned her head to another

side and refused to talk to Oscar.

Oscar was in quite a good mood. Seeing that Hannah was angry, he just left her alone. Hannah was

looking out of the window, while he was looking at her.

After arriving at the restaurant, Oscar and Hannah walked in, one after the other.

As soon as they entered, they saw Susan sitting there. Hannah doubted if this girl was doing her work

properly. She was always so punctual for appointments.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time. I'm starving to death." Susan would naturally engage with

everyone, including Oscar. She didn't greet him, just as if they were old friends.

Oscar didn't like Susan, so he ignored her and just sat down.

"By the way, didn't you say that Oscar's friends will come? Where are they?" Susan was careless and

couldn't notice that Oscar didn't like her.

"Jimmy goes to park the car. Theodore and... They should arrive a little later." Hannah didn't tell Susan

that she had invited Manuel. If she did, Susan might leave at once.

"Make a phone call to urge them." Susan complained, "How can they not come on time to eat?"

When Hannah was going to make a call, the door was opened by the waiter. Susan looked over. And

the delight on her face was rendered into sullenness the moment she saw Manuel.

Manuel saw it, yet he pretended not to see it.

"Why do you invite Manuel?" Susan's voice was not loud but it could be heard clearly by everyone.

Theodore was pushing Manuel's wheelchair.

"I told you that I would invite a few friends. Weren't you very happy to do that?" Hannah said innocently.

"You did it on purpose." Susan gritted her teeth.

"I just thought that if I invite more guests, there would be more fun. I don’t have many friends. So does

Oscar." Hannah explained.

Susan didn't believe what Hannah said.

"Everybody's here now. Let's start." Hannah said.

Then, she arranged for Manuel to sit beside Susan.

Susan glared at Hannah. Considering that there were other guests here, she swallowed what she

wanted to say. Hannah sat down next to Susan, and the person sitting next to her was Oscar. Then, it

was Jimmy and Theodore.

Altogether six people, everything was perfect.

"Toast the reunion first." Theodore took the initiative to toast, trying to liven things up.

Everyone picked up their glasses.

"Wait." Oscar said, "Hannah is not feeling well these two days, so she doesn’t drink."

"Not feeling well?" Susan gave them a meaningful look, "Could it be that she's pregnant?"

Hannah was speechless.

"No, she's just in her period." Oscar explained. As he spoke, he asked the waiter to pour a glass of

warm water.

"I thought I was going to be a godmother soon." Susan joked.

"If you want a child so badly, why don't you just have one with Manuel?" Theodore cut in.

"Can you not say such a scary thing?" Susan was so scared that her face turned pale. It could be seen

how much she feared such a thing on her face. Manuel just watched all this, not showing any emotion.

"You don't know chalk from cheese." Theodore commented.

Susan wanted to retort.

"Come on, everyone. Cheers." Hannah hurriedly tried to smooth things over.

Susan held back her anger. She told herself that it was for Hannah's sake, so she picked up her glass Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

and had a drink.

Things were going well. Although neither Oscar nor Theodore liked Susan, Susan was a cheerful

person and didn't mind it at all. So they got along quite well. If Manuel were not around, Susan would

be happier.

Susan took her glass and offered a toast to Oscar, "Hero, congratulations on your promotion."

Oscar ignored her kindness, which made Susan a bit embarrassed.

Manuel also raised his glass, "Congratulations."

When Susan was about to refuse Manuel, she saw Oscar pick up his glass and speak to Manuel, "You

can't handle alcohol. Don't drink too much."

"I see." Manuel nodded.

"Do you two know each other?" Susan asked. She had the feeling that they two had an unusual

relationship.

"Yes, of course. He's Hannah's best friend. How could I not know him?" Oscar spoke calmly.

"Isn't Hannah's best friend me?" Susan's face was serious.

"So I know you, too."

Susan was confused. She thought that what Oscar said made sense. But she still felt that there was

something strange.

Before she could think carefully about it, Oscar suddenly gulped down his wine. Susan hurriedly

followed. So did Manuel.

During the dinner, they were mostly drinking. At first, they took turns to toast and drank together. Later,

it became a platform for Susan and Theodore. None of them two would admit defeat.

Hannah knew it. It would be easier for Susan to click with Theodore. They two kept drinking nonstop.

"You don't have to worry. Susan drinks a lot. Even if she gets drunk, she'll still be alive and kicking the

next day. Don't worry." Hannah told Manuel.

At this point, Susan had switched seats with Manuel. Now Manuel was sitting next to Hannah while

Susan was beside Theodore.

Manuel knew it was useless for him to worry. Susan would not listen to him after all.

"Have more food. I ordered some non-spicy food." Hannah said.

"You chose this restaurant, didn't you?" Manuel was well aware that Susan would instinctively choose

Heroic when she invited others to meals. Therefore, the moment he heard the name of the restaurant,

he knew that it was Hannah's proposal.

Hannah smiled slightly and said, "When Susan falls for you, she will think for you."

Manuel showed a bitter smile. After all, it was out of the question that Susan would love him.

"That day will come." Hannah was very certain.

Manuel gave a perfunctory nod. He probably didn't allow himself to have much hope.

The dinner was over at about ten o'clock in the evening. At that time, both Theodore and Susan had

been drunk. They didn't get along well with each other in usual times, yet they called each other good

friends and wished they had met earlier at the end of the dinner.

They held hands and were unwilling to part with each other. In the end, they even became sworn

brother and sister in front of everyone.

Both of them would kick themselves after they woke up this time, Hannah supposed.
