Chapter 233: Chapter 225: The Protagonist Arrives
“Rose Woods can only stay with the Thompson Family, or is it that by staying with the Thompson Family, she can bring you endless benefits?”
Facing the accusations from her parents and everyone present, Bella Woods calmly looked at these people.
Finally, her gaze locked onto Rose Woods: “You hate because you think that the one who should have been sold to Elder Thompson that day was , not you, and that I calculated against you.”
“But have you ever thought that when they found out you were with Elder Thompson, your parents didn’t take you away or seek justice, but instead traded you for the greatest benefit.”
“What do you an?” Rose Woods’ face changed.
“Bella Woods, what nonsense are you spouting here? Your sister has suffered enough, and you’re still talking nonsense?” Jade Patel tugged at Bella Woods.
“Bella Woods, get out right now, the family doesn’t welco you.” Ron Woods sternly reminded.
Bella Woods didn’t listen at all, she just stared fixedly at Rose Woods and continued, “All my life, I’ve always thought that it was because I wasn’t good enough that my parents didn’t love .
Because you were always by their side, they gave more love to you.”
“But only after the incident with Elder Thompson, did I realize that it’s not that they love you more than . They only love Elliot Woods; you and I make no difference to them.”
“What are you saying?” Rose Woods completely rejected Bella Woods’ words.
Bella Woods said, “Do you know why even though Elliot Woods attends a boarding school, he never cos ho except for fixed holidays? Elliot Woods even spends those fixed holidays abroad with friends instead of coming ho.”
Bella Woods’ words seed to suddenly alert Rose Woods.
Rose Woods turned to look at Elliot Woods, who was evidently feeling guilty, his eyes wandering everywhere, not daring to et Rose Woods’ gaze.
“Because Elliot Woods beat a grandson from the Thompson Family’s collateral branch into a vegetative state. With Elder Thompson suppressing it, the matter didn’t escalate.
As long as you obediently stay beside Elder Thompson and make him happy, this matter will die down, and Elliot Woods can return to school normally.”
“Bella Woods, what nonsense are you spouting here!” Jade Patel scread.
Bella Woods calmly faced Jade Patel: “If I’m talking nonsense, then why are you feeling guilty?”
“I, I didn’t…” Jade Patel couldn’t face Bella Woods directly.
“Then tell , why has Elliot Woods been at ho for so long without returning to school?” Bella Woods questioned.
Jade Patel, under Bella Woods’ gaze, felt very guilty; she opened her mouth but couldn’t say anything.
Bella Woods turned back to Rose Woods: “You might not believe my words, but you are favored now. Go back and ask Elder Thompson, and you’ll find out the truth.”
Rose Woods looked around, didn’t say anything, took her bag, and left.
“Rose Woods, Rose Woods, Rose…”
Jade Patel went outside to chase Rose Woods.
Ron Woods rushed up to hit Bella Woods, but Bella Woods didn’t flinch; instead, she faced him directly: “Go ahead, hit , and then figure out how to explain it to Third Young Master Marshall.”
“Bella Woods, are you threatening now?” Ron Woods was naturally displeased at having his authority challenged.
Bella Woods laughed: “Before, I had the Hughes Family behind ; now, I still have the Marshall Family. I’d advise Father, when talking to or when angry with , think twice.”
“You, you’re really sothing!” Ron Woods was infuriated but couldn’t do anything to Bella Woods.
Bella Woods calmly replied: “Yes, I’m really sothing. So Father and Mother, when you want to find for sothing or aim to harm , think twice, or else who knows what despicable things soone like might do.”
Leaving these words, Bella Woods had no reason to linger here.
When she walked out, she happened to run into Jade Patel returning after failing to catch Rose Woods.
“Bella Woods, you…”
Bella Woods didn’t wait for Jade Patel to finish speaking, simply strode away.
Ashton Marshall had long arranged for a driver for her.
As soon as she left the Woods Family, the driver brought the car over, stopped beside Bella Woods, and opened the door for her.
“Miss Bella, please.”
Bella Woods got into the car, and once the driver was in, she asked, “Did Third Young Master ntion where he was heading just now?”
“My colleague said the destination was Cascade Court,” the driver reported honestly.
He wasn’t in the sa car as Third Young Master Marshall; he was sent over when Third Young Master left to pick up Bella Woods.
“Then let’s go to Cascade Court,” Bella Woods affird.
Because she wanted to see Ashton Marshall.
With the Hughes Family’s banquet approaching, Bella Woods wanted to cherish her ti with Ashton Marshall more.
The car arrived at Cascade Court.
Bella Woods had facial recognition access to all places at Cascade Court, and the security personnel were already familiar with her, so she had no obstacles.
But as she unlocked the main door of Cascade Court, she saw the living room in complete disarray.
The bedroom door was ajar, yet a woman’s coquettish crying voice ca from within.
“How long will you keep holding the past over us? I’ve already explained, and I’m willing to give up everything for you, can’t you just…”
It was Nina Sutton’s voice.
The mont she recognized Nina Sutton’s voice, Bella Woods’ heart trembled, and the steps she was taking inside stopped abruptly.
Because of the distance and Nina Sutton’s loud crying, she couldn’t hear what Ashton Marshall was saying.
Nor did she want to hear.
Without thinking much, Bella Woods turned and left.
She was just a substitute, and the main character was present. If she walked in further, it would be inappropriate.
anwhile, inside the bedroom.
Nina Sutton was crouched on the floor, crying uncontrollably.
Ashton Marshall lowered his head to light a cigarette, his expression indifferent, showing no trace of compassion for the crying Nina Sutton, even hinting at impatience.
He glanced at his watch, calculating that Bella Woods should have already left the Woods Family.
He wondered if she would return to her ho near the school.
“Ashton, why can’t you look at ?” Nina Sutton lifted her head, desperately pleading.
Ashton Marshall finally lowered his gaze, begrudgingly focusing his eyes on her: “When you first approached , I already knew you were from the Sutton Family.
I let you near just to use you, making the Sutton Family think I had totally fallen, prompting them to prematurely involve themselves in the Marshall Clan Group’s power struggle.”
This allowed him to strike back, catching them off guard.
Only later did he realize that Nina Sutton approached him out of affection, unaware the Sutton Family was also using her.
Ashton Marshall found it wrong to involve innocent people, so he showed Nina Sutton so rcy.
Yet that was no reason for Nina Sutton to keep making trouble.
“I’m warning you one last ti: don’t bother again, and don’t get close to Bella Woods, or else…”
Ashton Marshall’s eyes flashed with a lethal warning!
