Chapter 312 Danger (1) The Accident in Langley Town

"Back into the day when her father and I convinced Henry to break up with her, we promised him the

initial share of the Phillips Bank coupled with a big sum of money. But there was a limitation for him-he

had to promise that he would never have sex with Susan." Manuel told Hannah the truth.

Not until then did Hannah finally realize what happened.

"No wonder he didn't sleep with Susan last night. I just can't figure out why he left her alone. Was he

trying to protect Susan? But if that was the case, he wouldn't have sat by when Susan was sleeping

with another guy."

"That's right." Manuel nodded.

If it weren't because of that limitation, Henry would probably have slept with her. Susan wouldn't turn

him down as long as he wanted.

"He's not easy to be trifled with." Hannah sighed.

He swallowed the humiliation that Susan, the one he used to love, was having sex with another guy.

What a scheming man!

Hannah still remembered even though Charles didn't love her at that time, he would never let another Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

man sleep with her. Every man was born to be possessive. However, Henry could hold back his pride

so as to get what he wanted.

"What are you gonna do?" asked Hannah.

"Since I have had sex with Susan, there is nothing else I can do." Replied Manuel.

"At least you can learn to take the initiative. You gotta strive for it." Said Hannah.

"But that would make her hate me even more."

"Manuel, You attach too much concern about her feelings. That's why you never express how much

you love her. She can't tell if you don't show it. Just like what happened last night. To be honest, Susan

doesn't have the right to blame you. Think about it, you are the victim. Don't be confused because of

her. You have the very reason to claim that. And she has married you. Having sex is common between

couple. You don't need to feel sorry for her. That's the duty between couple."

Manuel couldn't help smiling, "Well, you convince me."

"No, you gotta convince yourself. Do as I told. From now on, take the initiative. Don't try to stay away

from her just because you are afraid that you might piss her off. Susan even complained to me last

night that you didn't even come to her. Perhaps deep within her heart, she wanna experience that kind

of duty between couple." Hannah talked fast. After a short pause, she continued, "You said you will tell

her the reason why Henry got close to her after you capture her heart, right? Since you have decided,

why don't you take actions? If you don't struggle for it, she will never fall in love with you."

"Okay, I will take the initiative." Manuel nodded.

He was totally convinced. Indeed, he attached too much concern about Susan's feelings, for the fear

that her disgust against him would grow. That was why he always stayed away from her. However, he

almost forgot that even though the distance might help to stop their relationship from getting worse,

there was no way it could get better.

"Besides, you'd better collect some evidence against Henry. When it's needed, you gotta expose his

plot. I worry that stupid girl will fall into his trap." Hannah reminded.

"Okay." Manuel nodded.

"Alright, that's it. Remember, you gotta strive for her love on your own."

"Thank you."

After hanging up the phone, she let out a breath of relief. At least Susan's current life was still sticking

to the path she planned. There wasn't too much to worry about. Now it was up to Manuel.

However, as soon as she put down her phone, she saw a news shown on the screen.

'Unexpected Explosion in a factory located at Langley Town. Many casualties have been reported.'

Langley Town?

That was exactly the town Oscar paid a visit to. How came such an explosion? What about Oscar?

Was he there when the explosion happened?

Worried, she hurried to dial his number. However, his phone was off.

Was it because of the explosion? Perhaps he was far away from the spot of explosion.

She clicked on the phone to read the news. It read "A firework factory suddenly exploded. A hundred

workers were trapped. The fire afterward had burnt down the whole building. 21 of them were killed

while 52 of them were seriously injured and 23 of them were merely injured. The police were still

investigating the accident..."

Though it seemed reasonable that an explosion would happen in a firework factory with lax security

procedures, Hannah felt like it wasn't just a simple accident.

Gritting her teeth, she dialed Oscar's number once again. However, it was still off. Oscar had ever

promised that he always had his phone on. Now the answer was obvious-there was something

happening to him.

Hannah told herself to remain calm. Oscar must have survived, she believed. After some consideration,

she called Theodore, "Theodore, do you know about the explosion in Langley Town?"

"I saw the news."

"Do you know about Oscar's schedule today?"

Theodore didn't reply.

"Was he gonna visit the factory?" Hannah expected his answer.

"I don't know. He didn't tell me."

"But I can't reach him. His phone is off!"

"Neither can I."

"He won't turn off his phone by himself." Hannah was worried.

"Perhaps his phone is out of power."

"No. He won't be that stupid."

However, Theodore didn't intend to continue, "Sorry, I have something else to deal with. I gotta go."

"Theodore…"

He hung up the phone without waiting for Hannah's words to finish. Frowning, she noticed there must

be something weird about it from Theodore's unusual indifference about Oscar's situation.

After some consideration, she turned to look at Jimmy. Noticing her gaze, Jimmy felt a bit uneasy, "Mrs

Wells, what can I do for you?"

"Take me to Langley Town half an hour later."

Jimmy was a bit surprised. Hannah then made an internal call, "Rose, prepare a meeting for the

department in two minutes. I got works to assign."

"Yes."

After carefully assigning the works, Hannah left the office. She didn't tell her father about it through the

phone until she set off to Langley Town. But she didn't tell her father where she was going in case he

would be worried. Perhaps she asked for the leave because of tiring work recently, Miguel supposed

so.
