Chapter 224
Bride of Mr.Billion
Bellaâs POV:
Bettyâs purpose was to humiliate me.
Having me admit that I bought a fake bracelet and gave it to Anne proved that I was a shameless woman. The matter had risen to the level of moral quality. This would not only make Hank look down on me, but also make Hankâs parents and all his relatives look down on me.
Betty was a scheming and vicious woman.
She used these methods to deal with me! I had always been taking care of her and protecting her. I felt really bad! âThis is indeed a good idea. Bella, Iâll prepare some gifts for you tomorrow. Go and apologize,â mother said to me.
At this time, I said firmly to my mother, âMom, the bracelet I bought for Anne is real. Iâm not wrong at all. I wonât apologize!â âMom, look at my sisterâs attitude. She did something wrong and still talks like that,â
Betty said. Mother was angry and scolded, âYou must go!â âIâm not wrong. I wonât go.â I wouldnât admit what I had never done. Slap! Mom raised her hand and slapped me! I covered my aching cheek and said sadly to my mother, âMom, Iâm not wrong! Am I a liar in your heart? Why donât you believe me at all?â
After a few minutes of silence, mother said, âThis matter has already affected the life of your sister and Hank. If you do something wrong, you should apologize! You must apologize tomorrow!â
I covered my face and took a step back. I couldnât believe my mother didnât believe me. I was shrouded in despair.
At this moment, Betty came over to hold me and said gently. âSister, donât make mom angry. I beg you this time. I donât blame you for the bracelet. As long as you apologize, this matter will be over.â Looking at Betty, who pretended to be a good person, I felt sick! I pushed Bettyâs hand away and said coldly, âBetty, you are a hypocritical person! I will never admit what I have never done!â
I turned into the bedroom and locked the door.
I leaned against the door, my eyes brimming with tears. Betty slandered me, but I didnât have the ability to prove that I was not lying. At that time, I bought the bracelet and showed it to mother, but now she couldnât tell whether it was the same bracelet or not.
When I bought them in the mall, I requested for a receipt. Because I was worried that Betty wanted to return it, so I put the receipt in the box where the bracelet was placed. I guessed that she had already kept the receipt. So I didnât have any evidence to prove that I was slandered.
At this moment, Lucky, who was sleeping on the bed, suddenly woke up and started to cry Hearing my daughterâs cry. I knew I couldnât continue to be decadent.
I still had a daughter. She was so young.
I was her mother. I had to take care of her. I had to be strong. The next moment, I quickly wolked to the bed and reached out to pick her up. Most of the reason why babies cried was that they were hungry or needed to change their diapers, I opened the quilt and changed her diapers, Then I held her in my arms, untied her clothes, and led her with milk, Alter drinking milk with her small mouth, she not only did not cry, but also squeezed out a cute smile from the comet of her mouth.
I was oncouraged by her smile I couldnât be slandered. My reputation was very important, because it will affect my child in the future I didnât know when Helly left in the following days. I felt that the atmosphere at home was obviously nol good Mother didnât care about me as much as before. She still cared about Lucky I know that mother want angry and disappointed. I didnât want to explain Alter all, my explanation was uncleus Because I was afraid I couldnât find any solid evidence to prove Bottyâs lie Motherâs indifference made me very uncomfortable, But it had only been three months. I didnât have a place to go, and I didnât have enough money.
For the first time, I desperately wanted to own a houro, a car, and money, When life was very difficult in the past, I also thought that money was secondary, Love and kinship were the most important things But, what did I get in the end?
I needed to have my house, and also the money to support Lucky and I In the next few days, I was very melancholy. Where should I take her? How could I support her?
Lucky was too young, Mom was still angry.
I couldnât go out to work. If I didnât go to work, I couldnât make money, How could I get rid of the bad situation now?
When I was in greal pain, there was another thing that pushed me into an even worse situation This morning, while I was sleeping. I washed my clothes and went to the narrow balcony to bask in the sun My house was on the second floor. The windows on the balcony are open, and the voices outside can be heard, This building was old, narrow, shabby. Those who were rich had already bought a new house and left this place.
The rest of the people here were almost at the bottom of the hierarchy The people here were poor and boring, 15 53 )
Moreover, their thoughts were very traditional. They looked down on women who gave birth without getting married.
This was also one of the reasons why my mother was so angry before. They liked to talk about other peopleâs scandals and then tell everyone those terrible things. This method could be regarded as a way of entertainment. But they didnât know that every time they said something, it was a sharp sword that would hurt others.
