Chapter 108: Chapter 108: I Don’t Like You, but You Must Be Mine Chapter 108: Chapter 108: I Don’t Like You, but You Must Be Mine Bella Woods squeezed in at the last minute to sign her na.
“I know that so of the school’s practices during the new student ceremony might have made you feel aggrieved or dissatisfied. But the school has its considerations and is compensating you in other ways.”
The principal’s words were quite subtle.
But Bella Woods understood the underlying ssage in the principal’s tone; it was a bit of a scolding.
The impression was that Bella’s last-minute signature seed a bit inappropriate.
“Sorry, today’s events were sudden. I’ll definitely pay attention next ti,” Bella could only honestly accept the criticism.
The principal initially looked displeased, but Bella’s sincere apology and her compliant deanor softened his attitude.
However…
“Our school has always had educational collaborations with Country A, and thus we send a number of students abroad every year as exchange or study-abroad students. Many of our students, after going to Country A as exchange students, remained there as international students because of their outstanding performance.”
In a calm tone, the principal said, “It’s just that those we send abroad are usually very independent and capable of taking care of themselves.
The main reason we arrange interviews is to screen out those who can’t take care of themselves and prevent any accidents abroad.”
By this point, Bella Woods pretty much understood the implication.
The principal thought she looked too soft and gentle, and with no apparent assertiveness, she might not et the interviewer’s criteria and thus wouldn’t qualify to go abroad.
Bella felt a bit upset inside but had to accept it.
“Thank you for the reminder, Principal. I think I know how I should prepare,” Bella thanked the principal.
The principal was rather surprised that Bella could understand the implicit aning in her words.
There had been students like Bella before, and the principal had subtly hinted that their gentle and obedient image didn’t et the requirents.
But none understood the hint.
As a result, despite excellent written scores, they failed the interviews.
Bella was the only one who responded this way.
“Well, since you know how to prepare, you should start preparing; there isn’t much ti left before the two interviews,” the principal nodded.
“Okay, Principal.”
After leaving the principal’s office, Bella Woods felt quite heavy-hearted.
In less than a month, she faced two interviews.
She was fully confident in the written exams.
But according to the principal, the interviews were risky, and she needed to change her whole image and even her behavior style.
No matter the cost, she had to pass these two interviews and study abroad.
She must leave.
Bella Woods walked down the stairs with unwavering determination.
As soon as she stepped out of the teaching building, she saw Oliver Hughes and Calvin Marshall sitting on the steps below.
Upon seeing Bella, Oliver Hughes stood up and walked towards her.
“You’re finally done. I’ve been waiting for you for a long ti,” Oliver said urgently.
Calvin caught up with Oliver and apologized to Bella, “I tried to get him to leave, but he refused and insisted on waiting for you here.”
Calvin was also quite helpless.
Regarding this young nephew, Calvin had always thought he was spoiled, with a bad temper and pride bigger than the sky.
Turns out he was actually stubborn.
Hints had been given that Bella already had soone else around her, but he refused to believe it.
Calvin even detected a certain undertone from Oliver’s words, implying that even if Bella had soone else, they weren’t better than him.
And as long as he could coax Bella well, he was willing to offer her the place of the main partner beside him, and Bella would obediently stay by his side as before.
Calvin didn’t know whether to say Oliver was too overconfident or simply refused to accept that Bella might leave him for various reasons.
“Can you leave with now?” Oliver asked Bella.
“I still have classes this afternoon.”
Right after Bella said that, Oliver took out his phone and made a call.
Two minutes later, the call ended.
“I’ve had soone sign in for you; you don’t need to attend your afternoon classes,” Oliver insisted domineeringly. “What reason do you have now to not leave with ? I’ll solve them all.”
“Bella Woods, from now on, your ti is mine,”
Oliver stated with absolute certainty.
Calvin glanced at Bella and imdiately warned Oliver, “Oliver, if you keep this up, I’ll call your dad.”
“My dad, my dad, what else can you do besides using my dad to pressure ?”
Oliver, already agitated, snapped at Calvin.
Both Oliver and Calvin were spoiled.
And despite her young age, Calvin held a high status. Facing Oliver’s yell, she imdiately showed displeasure, her words equally blunt.
“Oliver, can’t you see? Ever since you tried to take Little Bella away, she’s been extrely unwilling. Now, too, her expression shows she doesn’t want to leave with you. Why are you being domineering?”
“Little Bella also made it clear she doesn’t want to be with you anymore. You’re acting like a woman, dragging this out. What, you just can’t let go of Little Bella?”
“What liking? Aunt, stop talking nonsense!” Oliver protested irritably.
“Then why are you dithering?”
“I don’t like Bella Woods, but only she can be my fiancée, the future Young Mistress of the Hughes Family,” Oliver turned, eyes possessive, glaring at Bella.
Bella Woods hadn’t said a word since the beginning.
Including the argunt between Calvin and Oliver, despite Calvin’s shock at Oliver’s words, Bella remained silent, while Oliver continued, “Bella Woods, no matter what, you are the Young Mistress of the Hughes Family; that cannot change.”
“Why?” Bella suddenly asked calmly, “Why must I be the Young Mistress of the Hughes Family?”
Despite the biggest outcry earlier when Bella, due to the Woods Family’s situation, begged Oliver for reconciliation, Oliver had never really intended to cancel the engagent.
It rely made Bella’s life difficult.
Now, after openly canceling the engagent, Oliver was unwilling.
With his proud young master persona, he shouldn’t be repeatedly entangling Bella for the engagent.
Not to ntion even getting involved with Ashton Marshall.
“Because you are the Young Mistress of the Hughes Family, no other reason,” Oliver said directly.
This answer was sothing Bella couldn’t understand.
And Oliver, unwilling to discuss such matters with Bella, only asked, “Do you have anything unresolved that prevents you from leaving with now?”
He was determined today that Bella would leave with him!
As long as Bella left with him, he’d give her what she wanted, win her back, and resu the engagent, then negotiate with Ashton Marshall.
