Lafayette Restaurant, 36th floor.
Bella and Uriah sat by the window.
In front of them was an exquisite sirloin steak with a glass of red wine next to it.
The two of them held knives and forks and dined gracefully, just like before.
Surprised, curious, or puzzled gazes were passed around.
Bella didn’t seem to see it, with an elegant smile on her lips, and her eyebrows were full of happiness.
It seems that the report on Toutiao’s front page is purely gossip and has no impact on her.
But…
“Uriah, I didn’t expect you to have a scandal one day.”
She picked up her glass, wagging her fingers, looking at Uriah with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
Uriah picked up the napkin and wiped the corners of his mouth, and there was a sense of extravagance from the inside out.
He looked up at her. “If there are reporters, there will be rumors.”
The smile on the corner of Bella’s mouth was wide, but the coldness in her eyes
was even greater.
Who does not know that anyone in this world can have a scandal, that is, a person can not have.
This person is Uriah.
Now, he told her that if there were reporters, there would be an affair.
How dare all the reporters die after so many years?
“Do you think I will believe this reason?”
“You can choose not to believe it.”
Bella’s smile fell a little bit.
Uriah took the glass and shook it.
Bella’s fingers that fell on the table curled up, then clenched.
“Uriah, I realized that I’ve never seen through you.”
Uriah shook the glass for a moment, and then his eyes fell on her face, “Uriah, how can I see through you?”
His gaze pierced her heart like a sharp knife.
Bella’s eyes panicked, and her eyes dodged subconsciously.
At this glance, he seemed to have seen through her heart, reminding her of the scene on the road that day.
Verne kissed her. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
She knew he couldn’t possibly know.
But he looked at it as if he knew.
Bella suppressed the confusion in her heart, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and curved her confident and elegant smile, “You will always be interested in me if you can’t see through it.”
Uriah looked into her eyes, dark eyes deep, “Is that so.”
“Of course.”
Uriah took Bella to the hotel and left.
Bella looked at the departing car and opened her palms.
A hand of sweat.
Lying before Uriah was as difficult as ascending to heaven.
But!
He couldn’t know what happened that day, and even if he did, it wasn’t voluntary.
She doesn’t have to feel guilty.
Moreover, it is he who should be guilty now, and his Uriah’s heart is now on his good friend’s fiancée!
District.
Callahan packed up at home.
Suddenly, the door was opened and Ronan walked in.
When Callahan saw him, his face turned cold.
But he did not scold Ronan as before, hating that iron was not steel, but turned around to clean up.
Like putting Ronan in the air.
Ronan didn’t feel anything. As usual, he swaggered over and said, “Dad, is your baby still in the old place?”
Callahan paused for a moment and continued to pack.
Ronan snorted and walked into the study.
In fact, two days ago, he came back home to find the old man.
Ask him for the enamel porcelain plate, he knew that the old man had put the East XZ up.
Who would have thought that the old man would donate this thing to a
museum!
He was so angry that he almost killed the old man.
What made him even more angry was that the old man sold the land and the house, and all the money was donated to Hope Primary School.
I didn’t leave half a penny for him!
This time, if someone hadn’t bought his Embroidery secret at a high price, he wouldn’t have stepped into the house.
Ronan went into the study and rummaged around.
There are only a few places where the old man hides things.
He knows it all.
The last time he looked for an enamel porcelain plate, he saw the book, the secret of Embroidery passed down from generation to generation in the family.
It was just that he only thought it was a waste book at the time, how could he think that someone would pay millions to buy this book.
As long as he finds this book and gives it to that person, won’t the money still
come?
Thinking of this, Ronan couldn’t help laughing.
Callahan heard voices inside, shook his head, and took the tape to seal the box.
Soon, Ronan ran out, “Where’s that waste book?”
Callahan said without raising his head, “Burned.”
“What!”
Ronan’s face changed greatly.
Callahan finally looked at him. “Burned.”
“You!”
Ronan grabbed Callahan’s collar, his eyes splitting.
“Do you know what that is? That’s a million! You actually burned it for me!”
Callahan looked at him. “So, you’re going to kill me now?”
“You!”
“Impossible, you can’t burn that precious book, you definitely hid it!”
The old man in this life the most precious two things, the same is the enamel color porcelain plate, the same is the secret of Embroidery.
He would never burn this thing!
Ronan immediately rummaged through the house, and even Dad Callahan opened the sealed box and poured out all the contents.
However, he searched all over the house and couldn’t find the book.
His patience reached its limit, “Callahan, you old immortal, where did you hide the book!”
He grabbed Callahan and yelled with a crazy look on his face.
Callahan was very calm, “Burned.”
“You! I’ll strangle you now! Are you going to say it?”
Ronan grabbed Callahan’s neck and completely lost his mind.
“Burn… it…”
“Where is it?”
“Burn…”
Callahan’s eyelids began to roll up, and the blue veins on Ronan’s hands popped up.
At this time, a voice came from behind, “What are you doing!”
Ronan regained his senses and saw Callahan under him, dying.
Ronan shook and immediately stepped back.
Elara ran over and quickly helped Callahan up, “Mr. Callahan!”
Ronan looked at Callahan, who was turning blue, and ran away.
He ran out of the community in one breath, and a cold wind blew. He was shocked and thought of someone.
It’s her.
The old man must have given her the book!
