“What’s wrong?” Oscar frowned and asked.
Harrison watched the phone screen and couldn’t believe her eyes. It was already ten o’clock in the
morning?
Usually, she woke up at seven o’clock. No wonder she felt so refreshed after she woke up this morning.
It turned out that she had overslept.
What happened to her alarm clock? Why didn’t she hear it? She thought it was still early in the
morning. And her alarm clock hadn’t rang yet. And she even played with Oscar on the bed for a little
while….
“What’s wrong?” Oscar asked again as he didn’t hear anything from Harrison.
“Who turned off my alarm clock? Harrison turned around and questioned Oscar.
Without doubt, it must be the man in front of her.
“I did.”
“Why did you do that? You’re late for work…”
“It’s Saturday today.” Oscar reminded.
Harrison was stunned and stared at Oscar. No wonder Oscar also slept till now.
She pursed her lips and said, “I also work on Saturdays.”
“No, you don’t.” Oscar said.
“Who are you to say that?”
“Just stay at home on weekends.” Oscar said in a bossy tone.
“Why should I?”
“Because I’ll stay at home with you.” Oscar said seriously. Meanwhile, he went on talking on the phone,
“Where were we just now?”
Then, he talked with Theodore on the phone again.
Harrison was speechless.
Who was he to meddle in her life? Why must she stay at home as he did?
Suddenly, she thought of Charles in her previous life. She couldn’t remember how long Charles had
been working around the clock. He was always busy both in weekdays and on weekends. And they
seldom spent time together.
For it. Charles always remembered some small things like giving her flowers on her birthday or buying
her perfume on their wedding anniversary day, and so forth. She used to be so moved because she
thought Charles had made time to surprise her.
However, it turned out that his assistant had done all those things for him. All he had to do was text her.
She pursed her lips and couldn’t help to look at Oscar, who was now talking on the phone with
Theodore. He never talked much, but he would warm her heart with actions each time.
She couldn’t tell if he was too good at hitting on girls or…he really loved her as he said. But what did he
see in her? She didn’t do anything to him. And Oscar didn’t look like a man who would fall in love with
someone easily.
“I know I look dashing, but I’ll be shy if you keep looking at me like that.” Oscar hung up the phone and
found Harrison staring at him without a
blink.
Harrison came back to earth instantly and looked away.
Oscar was a looker, but in fact, he was a jerk. However, she couldn’t bring herself to hate him..
“I’ll go back to Cooper Manor later. Harrison ignored him and changed the topic. She had to go back
and discuss the case with her father since she didn’t go to work today.
“I’ll go with you.”
“No need. You should have a good rest at home.” She said and thought a patient should stay in and
have a rest.
“No. You need me.”
“Oscar…”
“Trust me.” Oscar put on a sweet smile and said, “I’m more useful than you thought.”
Gosh! She believed no one else was more over confident than Oscar!
Anyway, Harrison went back to Cooper Manor together with Oscar. Of course, Martha and Michelle
were extremely hospitable.
“Oscar, I heard that you were admitted as a government officer. Was that true?” Martha said happily, as
if he had forgotten he was stuck in the
case.
“Yeah. I’m not very interested in the family business, but I just can’t fool around and do nothing.
Anyway, I’ve married Harrison, and must take the responsibility to support the family. So, I chose to be
a government officer.” Oscar said very gently.
–Hearing it, Martha and Michelle were really pleased. On the one hand, he’d showed his career
ambition. One the other hand, he’d showed his
love for their daughter.
Oscar was not only good at pleasing women, but also good at wining the favor of the seniors. Harrison
would feel sorry for the country if he didn’t
choose to be a diplomatic officer.
For so many years, you’re the first government officer from the rich and influential families. You work in
the City Hall, and I fully support you!” Martha expressed his own opinion.
T’ll do my best, father.” Oscar promised, looking like a perfect son-in-law.
In fact, Harrison really wished to tell her father that Oscar was very scheming. He worked in the City
Hall for himself only. There was nothing to
do with her.
“It’s family day. Could you please stop talking about work?” Michelle interrupted them, “Oscar, come
here. Try some fresh fruit. I went to the market this morning and bought them for you.” Michelle said.
Oscar went over immediately and picked up one piece of fruit with the fork. “So sweet.”
“Enjoy it.” Saying it, Michelle gave some more fruit to Oscar.
Harrison was sitting right next to her mother, Michelle, but the latter didn’t even throw her eyes on her.
Michelle cared about Oscar only. Harrison couldn’t help to get jealous.
“Mum, I also want some.” Harrison acted cute and said.
Michelle turned to glance at her and said impatiently, “It’s right in front of you. Help yourself.”
“Here, Oscar. Have more fruit.” Michelle gave more fruit to Oscar again kindly.
“Thanks, mum.” Oscar smiled lightly and looked really polite.
At that moment, he glanced at Harrison on purpose, as if he was provoking her. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Harrison rolled her eyes and wondered if he could be more childish! Her mother was nice to him only
for the sake of her, OK? There was no need to show off!
But she thought it over and remembered her parents had never been so hospitable to Charles back
then.
“Harrison.” Martha called her name suddenly.
“Yes, dad.” Harrison turned to look at Martha.
“The courthouse informed me that I would be in count in one week since they’ve got witnesses and
solid evidences. It will be next Friday.” Martha said with anxiety.
At that moment, Harrison couldn’t help looking to Oscar, which had scared the hell out of her. What?
Was she counting on Oscar unconsciously? Didn’t she say that she would count on herself in the new
life?
“Don’t worry, Dad. Harrison and I have figured out how to win the case.” Oscar looked very confident,
“You’ll be set free.”
Martha still doubted it and said, “I’ve checked the evidences with Harrison yesterday. And I’ve studied
the case at home. It’s very hard to clean my name.”
“No, it isn’t. There are lots of flaws in the case.” Oscar said firmly, “Please trust us.”
“Of course I do trust you. But I’m afraid it will be too difficult for you.”
“Dad, come on. We’re a family. Don’t be silly.” Oscar said, and looked a little angry.
Martha smiled with relief. Unexpectedly, Harrison had married a reliable man.
