After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire

Chapter 4 Uncle Roger’s Daughters

After the call, Hannah could not sleep in.

She stretched, got down from the bed and went downstairs.

As she just reached the main hall, she saw Roger Cooper, her eldest uncle and his family visiting them.

That family was always up to no good.

Just because of her grandpa handing most of the family business to her father before he died, Roger

had held resentment and he would occasionally pick their flaws. He had even colluded with Charles

secretly to seize the family property, which sped up the decline of the Cooper family in the end.

Hannah examined the people in the living room with attention. She noticed Roger had even brought his

illegitimate daughter along today.

If she had not mistaken, Roger’s purpose today was to let his illegitimate daughter work at the Cooper

Group. The person in charge of the group was now her father, therefore he needed to gain her father’s

permission. And Roger wanted to give his daughter an important job position.

Her father had indeed cared for Roger’s pride and agreed to let his daughter join the company in her

previous life, yet his daughter was quite ambitious and she had brought tons of trouble and chaos to

the company.

Being reborn to the present, how would she let their plan succeed again?

She walked towards them absentmindedly.

“Please have some tea, Hannah.” Mary Cooper, the illegitimate daughter held a cup of tea to her

obligingly, looking utmost deferential.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Hannah extended her hand.

The moment she took it over, Mary’s hands slipped and the boiling tea seemed to about to fall on

Hannah’s hand, luckily Hannah who was reborn had known her tricks too well.

She pretended to be pitiful in her previous life, looking innocent, yet she was cunning and evil and had

kept on setting tricks on her behind her back. She had even slept Charles! She could not tolerate such

a goody two shoes and she would not let her off easily no matter what.

Hannah was quick and agile enough to seize Mary’s hand which she was going to retrieve. All the tea

then splashed right onto Mary’s hand. Hannah’s action was so quick that no one could tell.

Mary’s shrill scream was heard from the main hall, followed by the breaking sound of the teacup on the

ground.

“What’s wrong?” Roger looked a little nervous.

“I know Hannah didn’t do that on purpose.” Mary quickly said.

Tears were all over her face and she looked extremely fragile.

It was no wonder although she was an illegitimate daughter, she was still loved and spoilt by Roger.

Yet the next second, Hannah landed a hard slap right on her face.

She had used all her strength and Mary was stupefied at the scene.

Mary stared at Hannah who was looking aggressive in disbelief.

She knew Hannah too well. She was a docile woman who abode by the rules, too kind but stupid. She

would never do such a thing and she could not even bear to see her cry. As long as she cries, her heart

would melt. So as the rest of the family members.

Yet Hannah had actually slapped her face now.

“Do you know how much grandpa loved this tea set when he’s alive? Could you possibly compensate

for this after breaking it?” Hannah chastised with power.

Mary’s face flushed and she cried even more fiercely. She said with a pitiful look, “No, it’s you who

didn’t take it properly, it’s you who…”

“Is it me not taking it or is it because of you not holding it properly before I took it?” Hannah interrupted

her. “Why, now you’re starting to tell lies?”

“No, it’s you…” Mary shook her head profusely with an aggrieved look.

“And now you’re still arguing!” Hannah pulled down her face. “Turns out the daughter who doesn’t grow

up with the Cooper family really isn’t up to standard. You can’t even hold a teacup properly.”

Roger’s expression changed drastically when he heard Hannah’s teasing remarks against his own

daughter.

Yet he had no idea exactly whose fault was it just now. Plus, Mary was indeed an illegitimate daughter

and it was inappropriate and difficult for her to join the upper-class community. He actually could not

retort and could only hold back his anger.

“Jane,” Hannah turned to Jane Cooper, Roger’s formal daughter, and said, “Your sister is incomparable

to you at all.”

Jane actually did not get along well with Hannah too.

Although she was the authentic heir of the Cooper family, she was made an offshoot just because her

grandpa had left the family property to Hannah’s family and Hannah had become the official mistress of

the Cooper’s. She had been holding grudges about it.

Yet because of Hannah teasing Mary now, she was utmost delighted.

If that bitch was not loved and protected by her father, she would have been beaten up to death.

“God knows what kind of debauched person has she grown up with, she knew nothing besides getting

people’s sympathy. I’ve asked my dad not to bring her here and embarrass us. Great, now that she’s

broken grandpa’s teacup, beating her to death is not even enough to relieve our hatred!” Jane said with

disgust.

“Enough!” Roger looked terrible and he bawled at Jane, “Shut your mouth up would you!”

Jane rolled her eyes unhappily.

“Alright,” Miguel stood up from the couch and said, “although it’s my father’s belonging, I’m sure he

would not want the whole family getting unhappy because of this one single teacup. I’ll let the

housemaid come clean this up.”

“Yes, yes.” Michelle quickly smoothed things over too. “Mary’s hand has been scalded, she should

hurry up and go to the hospital to let the doctor have a look.”

Although she was acting kind, she refused to mention Mary’s swollen face due to her daughter’s slap.

Hannah could not help but smile.

Her mother did have some little thoughts in mind too.

“We’ll take Mary back now, sorry for making you guys unhappy,” Roger’s official wife, Esther Adams

said.

She did not actually want to help Mary join the Cooper group after all. Even if she had tolerated Roger

fetching his illegitimate daughter back to the Cooper Residence, she would not treat her sincerely.

She was just acting because Mary was loved by Roger.

Esther said while pulling Roger. Roger was looking terrible. He initially wanted to talk about the matter

of Mary joining the company. Now that Mary was teased, he could not say it at all.

He tossed his hand hard and left with rage.

The whole family followed after him.

Mary could not hide the anger at Hannah in her eyes when she left.

She never thought that Hannah would treat her like that so suddenly. She seemed to have changed

completely. She initially wanted to use her fragility to scald Hannah whom she had been jealous of all

the time, as she would forgive her anyway. Yet not only she was slapped by Hannah, she had also

even lost her opportunity to join the Cooper Group.

She must join the Cooper Group, she swore!

She was also one of the Coopers, but why should she be teased like that?

She wanted to impress all the people from the Cooper’s and make them suffer!

…

Hannah let out a grim smile as she watched them left.

She knew clearly what Mary had had in mind, and she was waiting for her to doom herself.

“Hannah,” Miguel called her, “why are you so aggressive today?”

They used to tolerate that family all the time for the sake of peace. Yet he had not expected his

daughter who had been gentle all the time had suddenly behaved that mercilessly.

He felt inexplicably relieved too.

Hannah reacted and she let out a sweet smile. “I’ve suddenly learned that a nice but weak person is

liable to be bullied.”

“I can’t believe you’ve even lied that it’s your grandpa’s belonging.” Miguel sounded like he was

blaming her, yet he was saying that with love.

Hannah stuck her tongue out with a mischievous look.

There was no need for moral boundaries when dealing with a goody two shoes!
