After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 112

In the romantic dining room, Charles placed the cutlery in front of Hannah, appearing to be a thoughtful gentleman. Hannah’s words, however, left Charles frozen and visibly embarrassed. She didn’t make Charles look good.

“All these years we’ve been together, and you don’t even know I’m allergic to mushrooms?” said Hannah.

It was ironic that Charles made this mistake while he intended to show how much he loved her here tonight. What a slap in the face!

Charles was stunned for half a second and quickly calmed himself down. He quickly said, “Oh. I just thought of sharing the delicious food with you. I forgot that you’re allergic to mushrooms. Waiter, please replace it with the one with black pepper sauce.”

“Yes, sir,” the waiter said respectfully, and Hannah was watching Charles’s performance.

Hannah found lots of loopholes in Charles’ crass antics. Why had she never seen him through in her last life? Owing to her unconditional trust, she had been deceived into a miserable situation once.

Charles cast around for another change of subject to ease the awkwardness.

“Hannah, why are you suddenly going to the company? I didn’t know you were going to work.” asked he.

“Nothing to do anyhow.”

“Did Oscar treat you badly and make you feel insecure?” Charles asked with a worried look.

“Of course not.”

“That’s good.” Charles put on a smile, “I was afraid that you would be wronged by Oscar. After all, his reputation is really bad. I’m worried...”

“Instead of worrying about what Oscar did to me, you’d better pay attention to what happened between us,” Hannah said, staring at him, “Didn’t you say you wanted to make it clear?”

“Yes,” Charles nodded quickly, being careful not to offend her.

“Jane was buried today, which left me with a lot of feelings.” said he.

Hannah lowered her head and ate the redelivered dinner as if she was going to enjoy a free crosstalk of the man before her.

“I can’t accept that she would have committed suicide because of her evilness, and I feel a little guilty about it,” Charles said, grimacing, “I should have reassured her, if I had known she couldn’t take it.”

Eating her steak, Hannah showed no reaction. Charles was a little embarrassed and went out of his way to smooth things over, “Actually, it was Jane and Roger who pushed me too far. At that time, Jane drugged me and seduced me, and in the end, she asked me to marry her. I loved you. How could I marry her? ! But I did not expect my refusal to lead to her vindictive acts. I was penalized by Jane in public. I had to marry her to prove my innocence. You won’t blame me, right?”

As he spoke, he reached out and tried to take Hannah’s hand but Hannah raised her hand and dodged.

“That’s a conflict between you and Jane. Why should I blame you? There’s a reason. Jane could blame you, and she wouldn’t reproach me.” said she. Hearing that, Charles was a bit embarrassed by Hannah’s words. For him, Hannah stood against him no matter what he said now and it was hard for him to play a trick on her, while she used to be so docile to him. Charles gritted his teeth and tried to control his irritation.
