Chapter 51
“Mom! What are you doing?” Bella was going to burst into tears when she saw the tickets being torn into pieces. It was so hard for her to get them.
“What am I doing? Forget about going to the concert. On your birthday, behave yourself i front of your grandmother. Stop daydreaming about all this useless stuff! You have to remember, it is your responsibility for me to have a wealthy life! You owe this to me! You don’t know how heavy the burden is to raise you up!” Jan said coldly.
Jane’s words hurt Bella’s feelings. Tears began to steam down her face at once.
She glanced at Jane with resentment in her eyes and ran to her room, Chase, meanwhile, looked at Jane. His eyes were full of raging anger.
Jane sneered at Chase and said, “Hmph, do you know why I tore the tickets just now? It’ not just to teach her to behave herself..”
“More importantly, I want you to bear in mind that I won’t give you a chance to use the money of the Song family for your own pleasure!”
Jane’s eyes were full of provocation and mockery.
All of a sudden, Chase’s lips curled into asmirk, which made Jane dumbstruck for a moment.
As Chase slowly walked towards his room bie werde drifted into Janele care his words drifted into Jane’s ears.
“I will not leave my wife’s wishes unfulfilled. It’s useless for you to tear up the tickets.”
Startled by the determination in his tone, Jane went silent for a moment and forgot to refute him..
When she came to her senses, she cursed fiercely, “You b*stard, how dare you act so arrogantly in front of me!”
Chase walked into the room and saw Bella lying on the bed, her tears had soaked the bed.
Bella felt so sad.
Her sorrow did not come from the fact that she could not watch the concert alone.
But also from her own family, her own mother!
Did they ever care about her feelings?
They always talked about being one family. However, they were always sacrificing other for their own gains.
“It’s okay. Stop crying.” Chase gently stroked Bella’s hair.
Bella felt a sense of warmth soothe across her broken heart. She plunged into Chase’s embrace and burst into tears.
After crying for a long while, she looked u at Chase. “I’m sorry. It seems that we can’t go to the concert anymore…”
However, Chase replied gently, “It doesn’t matter. When the time comes, I will give you a surprise.”
Bella didn’t take his words seriously.
She had become the puppet of the Song family. She could not even decide what she wished to do on her birthday.
No matter how big the surprise was, it could never heal the wound in her heart…
Meanwhile, at this moment, Jane was meeting up with Alfred.
Jane told Alfred about what had happened a while ago.
After hearing this, Alfred’s eyes were full of disdain. “That brat is getting on my nerves. I have already made up my mind. I’m going to get rid of him after Bella’s birthday party!”NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Jane was delighted. “Alfred, what are you going to do?”
Alfred showed her a property ownership certificate and said with pride, “I have already prepared the wedding gift. The biggest difference between the Pinnacle
Real Estate and other agencies is that for the clients who buy the houses with full cash payment, they can sign the contract and move in immediately! In the past few days, my father has contacted the Li family. We
will set up a new company under the names of Li and Gao families.
Soon, I will be the chairman of the new company. I will give you a business deal worth ten million vuan at a business deal worth ten million yuan at
that time.”
Alfred rubbed his hands together and continued, “With your help in secret, I now have the perfect timing and the most strategic position, since I am also Bella’s lifesaver. If she refuses my proposal, she will be regarded as an unfilial, disrespectful, and ungrateful person in the eyes of all citizen of Golden City. I don’t think she dares to refuse!”
Jane looked at the property ownership certificate in her hand. She exclaimed excitedly, “I should congratulate you in advance then! We will be in-laws soon!” Her voice was trembling with excitement.
Alfred nodded, his eyes sparkling with a hint of acrooner “By the way thema’s one more of arrogance. “By the way, there’s one more thing that I have to ask from you. You have to work extra hard for the birthday party’s decoration…”
Jane understood him at once. She clapped her hands in agreement. “Alfred, you are so thoughtful! If that’s the case, there will be four ‘phases’ that we have to go through on that day. After Bella’s birthday, the reputation of that brat will be tarnished forever in Golden City. Hahaha!”
Bella had been feeling down due to the conflict she had with her mother in the morning. She went to bed very early in the evening.
Chase sighed and sat on the bed. He opened the Scripture of Tranquility again.
He had been studying chapter two recently. With reference to the words and illustrations in the book, he applied the silver needles on his vital acupoints every day to stimulate his inner strength.
Within these few days, he could clearly feel the changes that were going on within his body.
There seemed to be an obvious improvement in both his strength and speed.
However, Chase felt that it was not good enough.
His eyes were fixed on a diagram in the Scripture of Tranquility.
The explanation below the diagram described the application of fifteen silver needles.
Before this, he had only used up to fourteen needles.
The last needle was designated to be poked at an acupoint called the Holy Court, which was on the top of his head.
It was extremely dangerous to poke at this acupoint.
However, he was going to give it a try despite the risk on this day.
He took a deep breath and quickly applied the fourteen needles on his body. Then he grabbed the fifteenth needle and pierced in into the Holy Court on his forehead without hesitation.
The stinging pain made his pupils suddenly constrict and his whole body began to tremble violently.
A shocking force seemed to concentrate at his limbs and bones. It was so strong that Chase felt that his skin was going to crack.
The strength was as powerful as the piercing pain in his bone it brought along with.
Chase could only hold on for less than a minute before he pulled out the needle and gasped for air.
His whole body was drenched in perspiration.
He put on a wry smile. He was indeed too. impatient.
Haste made waste. Obviously, it was not the right time to use the last needle yet. His body would not be able to take it.
It could only be used as an emergency resort.
“Forget it. Let’s just take it step by step.”
Another two days had passed.
In the last two days, everyone in Golden City was again discussing and gossiping over a new hot topic.
The mysterious tycoon who had bought the Emperor’s Flower as a wedding gift had announced that he would give away the villa soon.
As a result, everyone in Golden City burst into another uproar again.
All of them were looking forward to seeing which lucky girl would receive such a treasure as her wedding gift.
When Bella heard this news, she felt a twitch of frustration in her heart.
Oh, another wedding gift!
What was so great about receiving a wedding gift?
Why did everyone talk about it in the city?
Why did they have to drag her in this matter when that man announced his plan?
Indeed, many reporters were making guesses of the recipient for this gift. Their guesses included different celebrities and girls who came from various rich families in Golden City.
It was only natural for the reporters to write about some exorbitant wedding gifts that ever appeared previously in the history of Golden City.
Bella, who received no wedding gift, was teased by everyone in the city again.
Bella was already depressed as she couldn’t attend the concert. Now that she became a topic of discussion, she was even more upset.
She was about to go for a walk when Jane came back home.
Jane had her cell phone in her hand. She looked at Chase mockingly before she said to Bella, “Bella, have you seen the news just now? The man who bought the Emperor’s Flower has just made a shocking announcement!”
Jane paused for a while and added, “He will give his wedding gift to his bride in two days!”
Bella was stupefied.
Two days?
Wasn’t that day her birthday?
