Chapter 142: Chapter 142: Believe Her
“First of all, whether or not you want to take it back, this is still my ho for now. If you want to see my bedroom or enter my kitchen, you must get my permission first,” Bella Woods emphasized.
“Bella, who allowed you to speak to like that?” Rose Woods was very displeased with Bella’s assertive tone.
She had only been gone a few days, and Bella had changed so much?
Even though Rose was abroad, she knew at the engagent party, Bella had Third Young Master Marshall backing her, which made Rose insanely jealous, causing her to rush back from abroad.
Third Young Master Marshall was clearly hers!
Originally, during the engagent party, she would appear in front of Third Young Master and win his heart at first sight, becoming the most honored woman in the future of Peace City!
But, it was all Bella’s sche, preventing her from attending the engagent party and missing the chance to et Third Young Master.
And now Bella was still speaking to her in such a dominant tone?
Rose couldn’t stand it at all!
“Move aside for !” Rose rushed up to grab Bella.
Bella was unmoved and reminded, “Don’t touch .”
“What if I touch you? So what?” Rose defiantly clutched at Bella.
Bella directly raised her hand and slapped Rose!
She didn’t use much force, but for Rose, who had been pampered from a young age and treated Bella not as her sister but as a servant, Bella’s slap didn’t hurt, but it was a humiliation!
“Bella, how dare you hit ?”
Jade Patel reacted, also furious, “Bella, what are you doing!”
Bella pointed at Rose, “She is my sister. She’s disrespectful to in my ho. Is there a problem with disciplining her?”
“You…” Jade was suddenly stunned by Bella’s words.
“What’s the problem? What right do you have to hit , who do you think you are?” Rose scread hysterically, about to tear Bella apart.
But when Bella looked at her, she directly raised her hand, “If you dare to co over, I will hit you until you shut up, want to try?”
Rose was completely frightened by Bella.
This was not the timid, silly country sister she knew.
This aura was stronger than anyone’s.
“Bella, talking to your sister like that, you’ve gone too far!” Jade regained her composure and imdiately adopted a mother’s stance, “Even if your sister made so mistakes, she’s still young. Don’t you, as an older sister, know how to give in?”
“Aren’t I giving in?” Bella looked at Jade, “I reminded her again and again to watch her words, and not to touch . Did she listen?”
“Previously, when I made mistakes, both mom and dad would directly hit . And now my sister disrespects her elder sister. As an elder sister, I am learning from the way my parents educated , is that wrong?”
“If I’m wrong, does it an that mom and dad were also wrong? Or, when mom and dad hit , it was not because I was wrong and needed education, but because they just wanted to hit . It’s the sa with daughters. You can beat and scold at will, but not allow to deal with Rose in the sa way.
Does that an you’re biased?”
Bella’s string of words rendered Jade speechless, unable to respond even once.
Bella had been changing so quickly recently.
Almost every ti they t, Jade felt sothing different.
From when did it start?
It seed like from the mont she insisted on breaking up with Oliver, and when she and Ron Woods were feeding Bella sothing for her future, trying to bind her completely with Oliver.
“Mom, as for the house you ntioned, I’m sorry, I won’t give it back. The na on the house is mine, and it’s what you promised when you asked to soothe Oliver and you promised to give this.
The incident at the engagent party is a variable. You just asked to soothe Oliver into agreeing to the engagent, facilitating your cooperation with the Hughes Family. Although there was a change at the engagent party, your cooperation with the Hughes Family still exists…”
“Who said the cooperation with the Hughes Family still exists?” Jade was touched on a sensitive point and started to shout at once.
“What do you an?” Bella frowned.
“All because you offended the Hughes Family, although our Woods Family cooperated with theirs, they deliberately sched against us. Now they’re forcing us to compensate them a large sum of money. Do you think I want the house back to compensate the Hughes for the damage you caused to Oliver!”
Jade seized the opportunity to negotiate with Bella, her voice rising sharply, “Bella, because of your willfulness to cancel the engagent with Oliver, even making such a scene at the engagent party, our Woods Family has been sched by the Hughes Family, now they’re forcing us to pay a large sum. Otherwise, your father is going to jail, do you know how badly you have ruined your parents!”
Bella was in disbelief, “This is impossible…”
Neither Daniel Hughes nor Cyan Marshall would sche and play tricks like this.
To Bella, the people of the Hughes Family were straightforward people; even if Oliver was spoiled and brash in doing bad things, he wouldn’t resort to underhanded tactics.
Cyan had promised Bella multiple tis before, even if the engagent party changed, she would still ensure collaboration between the Hughes and Woods Families, and absolutely wouldn’t…
“Do you think the Hughes Family are good people?” Jade sneered, “Cyan was only interested in pampering you for a few years, and you forgot what you are.
Did you really think Cyan Marshall was so saint? Have you forgotten Cyan is Ashton Marshall’s own sister, back then at the struggle for power in the Marshall Family, she seed indifferent, but she actually helped Ashton gain his current status.”
“A woman like that, do you think she’s simple?”
“She must have told you, even if you didn’t marry Oliver, the Hughes Family would still cooperate with our family, right?”
Jade’s gaze locked onto Bella.
Bella said nothing; she knew all about what Jade had said. Although so details were wrong, the basics were as such.
Moreover, Bella recalled before her visit to the school, the exchange student program was halted due to an implicit reminder from a teacher that the investor backed off because of her.
The investor was Cyan Marshall.
“Heh, you still think Cyan Marshall is a good person. She just pampered you for a few years on a whim, and you thought you were sothing special?” Rose sneered at Bella’s uneasy expression.
“She wouldn’t.” Bella, though flustered inside, still insisted.
She chose to believe Cyan Marshall.
She believed the affection Cyan had shown her over the past four years wasn’t fake.
Cyan promised to cooperate properly with the Woods Family, and she would, it wouldn’t be false, ever.
“You’re too naive; no one in the high society is a good person.” Jade sneered, looking at Bella as if looking at an idiot.
“It’s you who’s malicious, assuming the worst in people.”
From the kitchen, Ashton Marshall’s cold and stern voice rang out, breaking the confrontation between Bella, Jade, and Rose.
