After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire

The next morning, when Hannah just got up and was sitting on the toilet, she received a phone call from Susan.

Susan was greatly excited. "Hannah, have you read the news today?"

She was about to read it.

"Your Charles and Oscar have made the hot topic!"

"Who told you Charles is mine?" Hannah said gruffly.

"That means Oscar is yours?" Susan teased.

"Susan!" Hannah was completely speechless towards her.

Susan laughed so hard. "Anyway, just read the news. It's kinda interesting."

After finished, she hung up.

Hannah could tell what the media would write without looking.

And she was right.

Hannah browsed through the hot topic lists from all popular websites:

#Charity banquet received funding up to billions, Oscar Wells stood out among the wealthy#

#Charles Sawyer refused to spend a large sum of money to marry Hannah Cooper#

#Oscar Wells is a spendthrift, giving away jewel worth 30 million #

It was the first time Oscar did not make it to the hot topic due to his gossip news, he had even made it to the headlines of the economy, social and other official sites. He received both praises and criticisms. And it was the first time Charles getting teased and demeaned.

Charles looked terrible when he saw the news.

He used to receive endless praises back then, yet he was criticized by the media this time. The media accused him of being stingy, that he did not love Hannah enough, and he was not as perfect as what was said by the rumors. They had even talked about the Sawyer family's economical situation and claimed that something had gone wrong with the family's capital chain.

That was indeed true, and that was why the family was so anxious to connect to the Cooper family through marriage to gain unconditional funding from the Cooper's. Yet he never expected that Oscar would nearly ruin his big plan at such a crucial moment.

What made him angrier was the fact that the Sawyer Group's stock market had plummeted upon opening. To stabilize the market, the Sawyer's had to utilize a large sum of capital. That was literally adding insult to injury.

Charles was so enraged that he was trembling, yet he told himself to calm down.

The most important thing now was to marry Hannah.

The Cooper family came second in terms of wealth among the four greatest families in Northfield, just after the Wells family. If he managed to take over the Cooper family, he could straightaway suppress the Wells's with the wealth of both the Cooper's and the Sawyer's, and Oscar would not be able to beat him down.

Of course, once he took over the Cooper family, he would have the capability to expand his own family.

Having thought of that, an evil smile broke upon his lips.

He would definitely pay it back ten times and more for the humiliations he received today!

Meanwhile at the Cooper Manor, Hannah was reading the news and she was intrigued.

Susan called her again. "Have you read it?"

"Yeah," she replied, "by the way, why are you being so excited?"

"I'm excited for you!" Susan sounded as if she should naturally behave like that. "I thought you have a bad judgment back then and I was going to advise you, but now I suddenly think you're indeed wise that you could even find strength from Oscar Wells that scumbag."

Hannah had no idea whether she was praising her or not.

She said, "It's not what you think between Oscar Wells and me."

"Then what it is?" Susan was interested.

"You'll know after that."

"Are you starting to hide things away from me now? You've changed!" Susan complained.

Yes, she did.

"Oh yes," Susan suddenly remembered of something, "Manuel has come back."

"Oh yeah?" Hannah replied.

She remembered he had returned within these few days.

But she could not remember the details.

"He came back secretly last night, I was so shocked, the point is..." Susan endured her urge to continue.

Hannah was intrigued.

"Anyway, he must be up to no good when he comes back, he must be planning to steal my family property!" Susan said assertively. "I won't let him do as he wishes."

Hannah wanted to tell her.

That the one who was going to steal her family property from her was not her elder brother from another parent, but her lover who she always thought of.

Yet she felt that she needed time to make her believe.

"Since you don't want Manuel to steal your family property, why don't you go to work and take over the company?"

"Well..." Susan did not answer.

She did not want to go to work at all.

She stammered, "Don't I still have Henry? He could help support our family!"

Susan was just like her in the past.

She was naive just like her.

"Anyway, do consider my suggestion. Enough talking, my grandma's calling me." she said. "There won't be any good news when your grandma's looking for you," Susan said gruffly. Indeed, that was why she had to spend time dealing with these people.

She hung up her call and picked up Lorie Cox's call.

"Hi, granny."

"Who are you talking to on phone? How could you not pick up my call for so long! You're just like your father, an impolite brat!" she clearly did not sound good. Hannah's hand which was holding the phone slightly tightened.

Because her grandma had never liked her and she always doted on Wayne Cooper, Roger's eldest son. She had always tolerated her grandma just like her father all these years.

Yet after being reborn again, she did not plan to endure it anymore, not a bit.

She asked, "What can I help you, granny?"

"Get your ass back to the mansion now!" After finished, she hung up abruptly.

Hannah pulled down her face.

She felt that it was time to give her a piece of her mind.

Or else she would really think she was the Queen of England!

She put down her phone, quickly cleaned herself up, went downstairs and was ready to leave the house.

"Hannah, you've not even had your breakfast, where are you going?" Michelle quickly called her daughter.

"I'm going to granny's house."

"Why are you going there?" Michelle was clearly shocked.

She had fear towards her mother-in-law from the bottom of her heart too.

Since she was married into the Cooper family, her mother-in-law had not shown her any kindness, and the reason was Michelle was born in a poor family and Lorie disdained her. It was because Hannah's grandpa liked Michelle very much that he agreed to their marriage.

After marriage, Michelle would try all she could to avoid meeting Lorie.

Now that she heard that her daughter was going back, she was certainly reluctant to let her go.

"Granny said she has something to look for me."

"And what is that?"

"She didn't mention."

Michelle could not really oppose Lorie all these years, and she certainly could not forbid her daughter from going. After pondering for a while, she said, "I'll go with you."

"Are you worried that I'll get bullied by granny?"

"When had she ever not bullied you?" Michelle said gruffly.

"You can't do anything even if you go too." Hannah spoke directly.

She knew too well that to avoid huge family conflict, her mother would certainly obey her granny's words.

"At least I won't let your granny scold you alone." That was the biggest protection Michelle could offer her.

Hannah smiled.

Her mother was indeed too kind.

"Let's go." said she.

She secretly promised to let her mother see how she would deal with her evil mother-in-law.
