Chapter 2160
Ben invited them to a restaurant downstairs for dinner. Then Ben sent Bella to school in the afternoon. He acted considerately and courteously, thus Susan had a better understanding of Ben. Perhaps because of her doomed marriage, Susan valued Ben's quality very much. On the contrary, she didn't value how much money a man could earn. Susan believed that a man's care for his wife was the real meaning of marriage.
On the way back to school, Bella frowned. She couldn't understand why her mother had returned soundly.
Ben seemed to be in a good mood. He felt that he was about to pull off the favor of his mother-in-law.
"Bella, be careful in school. Don't trust others so easily. After class, I'll come to pick you up." Ben began to worry about Bella, afraid that Rosia would harm her.
"Don't worry, I'm on the alert now. Other than you and my mother, I won't trust anyone." Bella smiled at him.
Ben was elated because of Bella's smile. He couldn't help but reach out and rub her long hair. It was gentle and delicate, and Ben felt great.
Bella's heart skipped a beat when she met Ben's deep and tender gaze, her face flushed red slightly.
At the school gate, Ben was reluctant to let her go. After closing the car window, he pulled her head over and kissed her soft lips.
Bella's lips were so soft that Ben felt like he was going crazy.
Bella was breathless from the kisses. Her beautiful eyes were also full of tenderness. When Ben let go of her hand, Bella swallowed her saliva. It was strange. Why didn't she dislike his kisses at all? In fact, she wanted even more.
"See you tonight." Ben's voice was low, deep, and attractive.
Bella blushed as she pushed the door open and got out of the car. Then she waved at Ben.
Ben drove away. Bella turned around and walked towards the school. Soon after, she saw a familiar figure walking towards her.
"Ada?" Bella was a little surprised. Didn't Ada work in Ben's company?
"Bella, how despicable you are! You said that you wouldn't fire me. But in a blink of an eye, you fired me." Ada walked over with a face full of anger and questioned Bella.
Bella was surprised. Was Ada fired?
"The person who quit your job is not me. It's no use blaming me." Bella turned around to avoid her and walked in another direction.
"Bella, you wanted to be a good person, but you acted badly. And now you act despicably." Ada was furious. Immediately, she chased after Bella and kept questioning her.
Bella couldn't endure anymore. She suddenly turned around and said, "Ada, it's you who acted despicably. I think I have done my duty to you. What are you dissatisfied with? Are you dissatisfied because I didn't give up Ben?"
It was the first time that Ada saw Bella angry. And Bella's words were also aggressive. Ada turned speechless.
"I hope you know what you're doing. I didn't do you any wrong." After Bella finished, she left quickly.
Ada stood there and bitten her lower lip with hatred, "Bella, you'd better not."
Ivy saw them from afar as if they were quarreling. When she ran over, she found Ada holding back her tears and standing still. She asked hurriedly, "Ada, did you quarrel with Bella? Why?"Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
"Ivy, I will never be friends with Bella. She is so heartless and selfish." said Ada, with grievances on her face.
"What did Bella do to you? Didn't you introduce jobs to each other before?" Ivy was dumbfounded. Both Bella and Ada were her good friends, but she didn't know what to say.
"What, introduce jobs? Not! I think she just got a rich boyfriend and wanted to show off in front of me." Ada said angrily.
"Bella had a boyfriend? She never told me. But who her boyfriend is? What does he do? Does he study in the same school as us?" Ivy started to gossip. She was eager to know what Bella's boyfriend looked like.
"Ivy, we're too simple. How could a young miss of a wealthy family be friends with us? The reason why Bella was with us was that she didn't have a friend. Listen to me, stay a away from her. Otherwise, you might be hurt by her." Then Ada turned around and left.
Confusedly, Ivy looked at Ada's back and began to consider Ada's words.
Just as a famous saying went, where there were women, there were gossips. Ivy had various thoughts in her mind.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Bella waited for Ben to pick her up at school. The sun was setting and the afterglow was shining on the road. Bella's mood was brightened.
She hadn't noticed that the scenery of the school was so charming.
Outside the school, Ben was sitting in the car. Seeing Bella's delicate figure, a shadow of a smile touched Ben's mouth.
He and she were like lovers, becoming more and more tacit and intimate.
Though they didn't get married, enjoying love between each other was quite pleasant. At noon, Bella's mother called her suddenly. She asked Bella to hurry home for an urgent matter.
It sounded like her mother was
anxious. Bella didn't dare to put it off. She picked up her schoolbag and took a taxi home. As soon as she entered the house, Bella noticed two persons. One was a woman in
Pel
her, forties and the other was a girl in her twenties. The moment when Bella saw the girl, she was stunned because the girl looked like her
mother. It was so shocking.
When Susan saw her daughter, she waved her hand quickly and asked Bella to come over. The more Bella looked at that girl, the more surprised she became. She couldn't help but ask, "Mom, who are they?"
All of a sudden, Susan sighed fiercely, "Your uncle is detestable..."
When Bella heard that the matter was related to her uncle, she couldn't help but tremble. In Bella's memories, her uncle had never kept his nose clean.
Did her uncle make a big mistake?
"They are ... She's your uncle's illegitimate daughter. Her mother was deceived by your uncle. She bore a daughter for your uncle. But your uncle wants his illegitimate daughter instead of his legitimate daughter to marry an old bachelor to save his company. They have no choice but to come to me. And they ask
me to bug your uncle" Susan was a divorced woman, abandoned by her husband. So, she understood the sorrow of that woman in front of her very well. However, she couldn't do much to help.
Uncle's illegitimate daughter? Bella was shocked. She could not believe it. Though her uncle was not reliable, how could he have a grown-up illegitimate daughter? If his bossy wife knew about this, it would be an uproar. Would their home be peaceful?
