Chapter 1180 Back To The Cooper Manor

Chapter 1180 Back to the Cooper Manor

After dinner party, everyone left in groups of two or three. Hannah was confused as she sat in a black

car with Oscar instead of her parents, who had left her here after making an excuse. Salem and Una

were also in the car, so it wasn't awkward, but Hannah felt uncomfortable especially when she

remembered Oscar kissing her while she was drunk and how deep it had gone.

"Hannah," Oscar called out to her.

Hannah ignored him.

"I asked you," Oscar said seriously.

Hannah frowned not knowing what he was talking about.

"This afternoon. You told me to be gentle." Oscar explained, still serious.

Of course, Hannah knew what he meant but didn't want to talk about it in front of the kids. She covered

his mouth with her hand. Oscar chuckled before leaning closer for a kiss on her palm, which made

Hannah pull back abruptly.

"Oscar!" she snapped loudly, causing Salem and Una who were chatting to look at them curiously.

Hannah turned away without saying anything more, leaving Salem looking at his dad with a frown that

seemed to say 'why are you bullying mom?'

The car arrived at the Cooper Manor, where Hannah got out immediately followed by Salem, Una, and

Oscar.

"Your parents said that Sal and Una can spend the night here." Said he.

"What about you?" asked she.

"I'm their father and I have responsibility for taking care of them."

Hannah took the children's hands and got in the house with a sullen face.

Oscar's lips curved into a smile, knowing that if she didn't want him there then she would have refused

outright instead of remaining silent like this. But he couldn't get too cocky just yet. He tried hard to keep Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

calm as they walked into the house, where Miguel and Michelle were already back home. They greeted

Salem and Una warmly, making everything lively again despite being 9 PM already. The children went

off to wash up before bed. Miguel and Michelle took them to take a bath, leaving only Hannah and

Oscar in the downstairs lobby. In fact, when Salem and Una were playing in the living room, Hannah

and Oscar didn't participate much. Now that they had finished playing, Hannah got up to go back to her

room.

"Hannah,"

Hannah turned to look at him.

"Where am I sleeping tonight?"

"It's not like I invited you over," Hannah replied with a tone that wasn't too friendly, "How would I know

where you're sleeping?!"

After Hannah turned around, Oscar smirked wickedly. When Hannah went upstairs, she went to see

Salem and Una washing up. After they all went to bed, she planned on going back to her room.

On the hallway, Miguel suddenly stopped Hannah and said, "Hannah, come into my study. There's

something I need to talk with you about."

Hannah nodded but wondered what her dad wanted from her.

Sitting inside the study room Miguel was straightforward, "You and Oscar..."

"Dad, let us solve our own problems." Hannah interrupted him directly because she didn't want them to

meddle in their affairs. She could feel their idea for them together as well as their matchmaking efforts.

"Okay, okay, I won't interfere with your relationship but there is one thing that I want your opinion on."

"What is it?"

"A few days ago Manuel came looking for me."

"Manuel?"

"Yeah, he talked about the matter of Cooper Group."

"What else can be done if Cooper Group has been swallowed by him?"

"You are still upset over this matter even after so long?" Miguel laughed then continued saying, "If it

weren't for how ruthless Oscar acted then he wouldn't have been able convince those people from the

Collins family."

"I don't know what kind of brainwashing drug did he give you, which made everyone believe his lies so

thoroughly." Hannah muttered under breath.

"Dad is just getting older. My mind isn't deteriorating yet. Unlike Charles, who is different from Oscar

when it comes down whether or not he truly cares for our family."

"Can we get back on topic?" Hannah asked impatiently.

"Alright let's get back on track here. Susan had a baby recently, you know how much Manuel loves

Susan. He doesn't want Susan taking care of everything herself especially when they have a daughter.

So he wants more time off work which means someone needs help managing Cooper group."

"Did you agree?" Hannah frowned, feeling that the matter was not as simple as it seemed.

"I had a hard time adjusting after losing control of Cooper Group a few years ago. But after spending

these past few years at home with your mom, he's gotten used to it and doesn't really want to go back

to work. So I didn't agree right away. But this afternoon, when Manuel talked to me alone about his

specific situation and how he didn't trust anyone else to manage the company, he convinced me again.

If I don't agree, I feel like I'm letting him down. These past few years while you were gone, Manuel and

Susan have often come over to keep us company and we've treated them like a son and daughter. It's

hard for me to refuse when he asks for help."

"What are your plans now?" Hannah asked directly.

She knew her father's tactics all too well. Miguel knew he couldn't hide anything from his daughter and

smiled before saying, "I agreed to help him manage the company."

Hannah waited for Miguel. She knew her father had an ulterior motive in mind. It wasn't just her dad or

Manuel; it was Oscar too.

Oscar was truly cunning and deceitful with no prior history of kindness towards her family members

whatsoever. If she refused, he could think of many ways that would force her into agreeing eventually.

"Hannah, if you're just going be sitting around at home anyway then why not take on this role? Help out

Manuel." Miguel said persuasively.

"What if I don't agree?" Hannah asked angrily.

"I already agreed with Manuel. And these past few years he has been so thoughtful towards both your

mom and me that refusing would make us feel indebted forever." Miguel reasoned.

Hannah really wanted to refuse but seeing how much trouble her dad went through in trying to

persuade her made it impossible for her disappoint him in any way possible.
