Chapter 98: 098 Zoe’s design, completely shattered (4 more updates) Chapter 98: 098 Zoe’s design, completely shattered (4 more updates) Vivi Lange fell, and Mina Bell rushed forward, actually trying to straddle her and hit her. Fortunately, Kevin Bell quickly grabbed her arms and pulled her away.
Lucas Bell also hurried forward to help his mother up.
But it seed she had fallen on her tailbone and was sweating from the pain.
Lucas Bell frowned and looked at Mina Bell, “Am I crazy or are you crazy!”
“You dare to turn against your parents for Zoe Bell, what right do you have to call crazy!”
Mina Bell knew that arguing was useless.
She looked at Vivi Lange and just smiled, “You hit ? Weren’t you the one who told that all the jewelry was left for ? I needed money, so what if I sold it?”
“Or are you saying you never planned to give it to and were actually saving it for your own son? In your hearts, you never really considered a daughter.”
“You never raised from childhood, there’s no emotional bond at all!”
“Mina Bell, I won’t allow you to spout nonsense!” Kevin Bell rebuked angrily.
“I’m not spouting nonsense,” Mina Bell had been holding back for a long ti, “Then tell , with the Bell Family about to go bankrupt, what assets are you planning to leave ?”
“Or is it all going to the little brother?”
“After all, he is the hope of the Bell Family.”
“You disgrace!” Kevin Bell, furious, raised his hand and slapped her, knocking her to the ground.
Mina Bell didn’t care. She got up and wiped the smile from the corner of her mouth.
Her face, distorted from excessive plastic surgery, appeared even more ferocious and frightening.
“You don’t blink an eye at giving Lucas Bell tens of millions in real estate, so what if I took so jewelry?”
“Stealing?”
“Taking my own family’s things, how did that beco stealing!”
“Mina Bell!” Zoe Bell looked at her coldly.
“You must be pleased,” Mina Bell sneered softly, “Once again, I’ve completely embarrassed myself in front of you.”
“I thought I could pin this ss on you, but I didn’t expect…”
“It’s all because Ruben Fletcher is such a fool. I told you to find a hidden place to sell the jewelry. I didn’t expect it to still end up insufficiently managed, you’re as dumb as a pig!”
Mina Bell looked almost insane.
Through clenched teeth, Ruben Fletcher said, “You’re the pig, your face is swollen like a pig’s right now.”
“You…”
“Mina Bell, you don’t need to bla him,” Zoe Bell spoke, still holding the ice pack she used for Lucas Bell’s face, “Actually, he did quite well, the disposal of the stolen goods was very discreet, and it hasn’t been discovered yet.”
“What did you say?” Mina Bell’s pupils trembled slightly.
“This Boss Grant is an actor I hired, acting for half a day, 200 bucks.”
Everyone: “…”
The police officer investigating the case showed no change of expression, obviously already aware of this matter.
At this mont, Ruben Fletcher hurriedly said, “Fiona Fletcher, do you see? I told you, I don’t even know this person!”
Mina Bell, utterly defeated!
All along, she thought she fell due to having an idiotic brother, but unexpectedly…
In the end, it was still Zoe Bell who defeated her.
This reality was hard for her to accept!
Her body trembling, her ferocious and twisted face had difficulty even forming expressions, only her eyes looked as if poisoned, dark and vicious.
“Zoe Bell, why is it always you?”
From when she was brought back to the Bell family and officially renad Mina Bell, another na accompanied her—
Zoe Bell!
The moon?
It was Zoe Bell who was the brightest moon in the sky.
Wherever she appeared, Mina herself would beco dim and utterly reduced to a foil. Even though she was the true heiress of the Bell family, she could not accept it…
Zoe Bell watched her, her gaze cold and utterly calm.
It seed she had guessed it was her.
“I just didn’t want to waste police resources on soone like you,” Zoe Bell explained, “You might have been able to act composed, but Ruben Fletcher has been extrely nervous since he entered the police station.”
“In truth, the more people involved in a cri, the easier it is to slip up.”
“Furthermore, you just had to pick a pig for a teammate.”
She spoke softly and quietly.
Her lips slightly curved, a faint smile full of mockery.
“Why is it you?” Mina Bell seed still imrsed in her own world, “Everyone always compares to you.”
“Yes, I’m not as beautiful as you, not as smart as you.”
“You’ve already severed ties with the Bell family, so why do you still haunt every corner of my life like a ghost? Even if I stole sothing, that’s my family’s business, what does it have to do with you!”
“Zoe Bell, you are just despicable, who asked you to ddle in what’s not your business…”
She hadn’t finished her sentence when Kevin Bell raised his hand again.
Accompanied by a crisp and loud slap, his face turned iron blue, “Mina Bell, have you had enough? Since when do you have the right to steal?”
“Steal? I was taking, taking what’s mine from my own ho!”
“Mom said it was given to , gifted to , I was just taking my share of the estate in advance.”
“I didn’t steal, I’m not a thief!”
Mina Bell always refused to see her mistake, which deeply distressed Mr. and Mrs. Bell.
Vivi Lange fell over, her spine aching severely, looking at her daughter, “Mina, did you sell all the jewelry?”
“Sold them long ago,” Mina Bell chuckled lowly.
“Where’s the money now?”
“Spent it.”
“What, you said what? All of it’s gone?”
Mina Bell laughed coldly, “I needed plastic surgery, and also for maintenance and care, buying bags and clothes, everyday expenses, it all costs money, what’s the problem? Are you upset? Indeed, you only care about Lucas Bell, you don’t love at all, then why did you even bother to take back?”
“How could you turn out like this?” Vivi Lange’s voice trembled.
The pain in her body was nothing compared to the heartache she felt now.
“Bla yourselves, if I was still with the Fletcher family, I’d just be a salesperson, living a repetitive dull life, maybe just marry soone casually, and that would be my life.”
“You said, let be the lady, give a lavish life, why did the company start to go bankrupt just as I got ho?”
“I ca to the Bell family to enjoy life.”
“Not to suffer with you!”
Vivi Lange felt her breathing quicken, her blood boiling, the police officer nearby hurriedly gestured for her to rest.
It looked like she might faint at any mont.
“Mina Bell, we are now officially summoning you for theft,” the police officer didn’t mince words, “Ruben Fletcher, as an accomplice, will be detained as well.”
As they spoke, they glanced at Vivi Lange again, “The sold jewelry, we will try our best to recover it.”
“Officer, about that… I don’t want the jewelry anymore, can you let my daughter go? This is my family matter.”
“It’s a considerable amount, and you reported it.”
“I withdraw the case!”
“This is a police station, not a place where you can do as you please,” the officer looked at Mina Bell, who showed no remorse, “Sotis too much indulgence only harms others and oneself.”
Vivi Lange felt like all her strength had been drained, her body weak, and if not for Lucas Bell supporting her, she might have fallen over.
Her mouth murmuring:
“Such a tragedy, such grievance…”
Just then, the door was pushed open, and William Hale appeared at the doorway. He glanced at Zoe Bell, “Is everything taken care of?”
She nodded, “How did you get here?”
“I ca to take you ho.”
Zoe Bell walked towards him smiling.
“You must be exhausted from today’s competition.”
“Not really, just not sure about the results?”
“You’ve made it to the final,” William Hale said gently, naturally taking her hand. As they left the room, he turned his head for one more look at the mournful, ashen-faced Mr. and Mrs. Bell.
The words he once said, now echoed in their ears like a curse:
If Lucas Bell isn’t close to them, Mina Bell’s fate is predictable, is everything just as he said.
They, destined to have no children.
Even if they did, they would lose them.
Before Zoe Bell left, she turned to look at Vivi Lange again, her gaze finally resting on Lucas Bell. “Take Ms. Lange to the hospital for an x-ray soon, she might have injured her bones.”
The daughter she held dear, she had never cared for.
Yet this foster daughter she saw as dispensable, still worried about her well-being.
One phrase, one address as Ms. Lange,
made Vivi Lange break down once again.
