Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Explain the Old Man’s Affair Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Explain the Old Man’s Affair Chapter 110: Clarifying the Old Man Issue
“You don’t see any problem with your friends looking down on . After all, I ca from the countryside, and compared to the rich young masters in your circle, I’m just always a notch below.”
Bella Woods spoke indifferently, gripping a rose so tightly that the thorns pierced her hand, drawing blood, yet she seed not to notice.
She continued, “The reason you want these people to apologize to is because you think I’m throwing a fit lately. It’s just that these people made unhappy, so let’s have them apologize to .
“Then, maybe prepare a little cake, so champagne, or gifts, and that’s supposed to appease , it’s the only way to appease . If I’m still not happy, then it’s my fault, I’m being unreasonable.”
“You are being unreasonable!”
One of Oliver Hughes’ friends couldn’t hold back and complained about Bella Woods: “Don’t think that just because Third Young Master Marshall spoke a few words for you at the engagent party, you can really be on equal footing with Young Master Oliver.
“Frankly, you’re just a country bumpkin. Young Master Oliver stooped to humor you, and you didn’t take the opportunity but instead just said this and that here.”
“Really, you’re from the countryside, you have no perspective.”
“Not taking the step down.”
Once soone started to complain, others followed suit one after another.
But these words, over the years, were relatively mild to Bella Woods.
She’s heard much worse.
“What are you all doing?”
Oliver Hughes warned those speaking: “Don’t forget why I’m here to find you?”
These people imdiately fell silent, respectfully looking down, not daring to utter another word.
Oliver Hughes walked back to Bella Woods: “I also prepared a lot of gifts for you in the room upstairs.”
“Oliver Hughes, you know what? I don’t despise these people who look down on at all,” Bella Woods said. “Because the reason these people belittle is that they see how you treat ; I only deserve to be treated like this by them.”
“I’ve already had these people apologize to you, and you’re still talking?” Oliver Hughes’ patience was running thin.
In the past, whenever Oliver Hughes got impatient, Bella Woods would swallow any grievances back.
For fear that Oliver would get angry.
Also, very afraid of conflict happening.
Bella Woods was most afraid of quarrels with people, or any person or event, because of conflicts caused by her, disharmony, so most of the ti, she’d rather wrong herself, hold her tongue, to keep the peace.
But not anymore.
After everything that’s happened, she’s long changed.
Even now as she’s speaking to Oliver Hughes, because she knows she’s saying things Oliver doesn’t want to hear, and that he’ll get mad at her words, causing Bella Woods’ heart to pound nervously.
She still pressed on, continuing: “Because you’ve never respected , so, naturally, these people don’t respect . As for today’s apology, it’s only because of the face of Young Master Oliver…”
“Actually, no, not for Young Master Oliver’s face. It’s for the Hughes Family, for the Marshall Family, for Third Young Master Marshall’s face that they’re apologizing to .”
“Bella Woods, I have arranged everything for you, given you an escape, let you win against , and you still feel it’s not enough, do you have to say these words to make unhappy?”
“Why should I make you happy?” Bella Woods retorted as she looked at Oliver Hughes.
Her question left Oliver Hughes stunned, unsure of how to respond for a mont.
Bella Woods turned to the champagne tower and the cake, directly throwing the rose in her hand at the champagne tower!
Suddenly, with a crashing sound, the champagne tower collapsed, ruining the cake along with it, destroying all the beautiful preparations.
“Bella Woods!” Oliver Hughes was truly infuriated, “Are you done yet?”
Bella Woods calmly looked at Oliver Hughes: “You think I’m just throwing a tantrum, acting out. I’m just trying to make you surrender, make you bow to , that’s why you arranged all of this.
“You think a few apologies, a cake, a champagne tower would make crawl back to you.”
Bella Woods felt it was ridiculous as she said these things herself.
To Oliver Hughes, she was this cheap.
But she was no longer the Bella Woods she used to be.
Now, her only goal was not to fall out with Third Young Master Marshall, to ensure she could go abroad smoothly.
But not falling out with Third Young Master Marshall doesn’t an she cannot make things ugly with Oliver Hughes.
Bella Woods used to be afraid of conflict, afraid of making things ugly.
Now?
She wanted to make a scene, wanted to see what would happen if things got so ugly no one could save face!
Moreover, the principal also said that she looked too obedient, too ek, the study abroad interview over there would judge based on personal temperant to decide if one was suitable for going abroad.
“Oliver Hughes, the birthday party you arranged for Nina was grand and majestic. Yet today, to appease and make surrender, this is all you prepared. You feel insulted, but I can tell you, I don’t care!”
Even as Bella Woods said these, her heart was still pounding fiercely.
She almost couldn’t continue.
She wasn’t naturally sharp-tongued or harsh.
But just then, Bella Woods’ gaze landed on the entrance of Paradise World.
A Rolls Royce parked by the roadside, the car door opened, and a man in a suit stepped out, face cold, striding over with long legs.
Bella Woods looked away and faced Oliver Hughes again: “Whether it was you looking down on before, or your friends doing so. Oliver Hughes, the mont we announced the cancellation of our engagent at the engagent party, it was completely over.”
“I already have soone else by my side, there’s no room for you. I ca with you today to make things clear, also hoping you won’t seek out anymore…”
“It’s that old man!” Oliver Hughes suddenly shouted.
The approaching Ashton Marshall halted in his steps.
Those nearby who saw him instantly changed their expressions, one about to speak but was hushed by Ashton’s glance, silencing everyone around imdiately.
At this mont, Oliver Hughes paid no attention to Ashton.
His eyes locked onto Bella Woods: “Is it that old man? Bella Woods, just to disgust , you’d swallow anything, even an old man that aged?”
“Speak, why aren’t you saying anything?”
Oliver Hughes pressed on step by step: “I was giving you a chance. Bella Woods, I’ve said countless tis, being with was a blessing from your past life.
“This life, without , you won’t find better, and you choose an old man?”
“Utterly ridiculous!”
“You can’t get sothing good, so you settle for anything? An elderly man, what are you seeking? Seeking his old age, seeking his failure, or what?”
“Or do you think, that the money you conned from could support an old man?”
“Utterly ridiculous!”
Oliver Hughes spoke sentence after sentence, arrogantly, contemptuously, angrily, disdainfully.
“I originally wasn’t planning to pursue the old man thing, but since you brought it up now, today you better clarify this old man matter to !”
