Chapter 225

Bella’s POV:

When I dried my clothes, I heard a few women’s soft voices coming from outside the window. Although the sound was not loud, those people were at the bottom of my building.

I could hear them very clearly.

“Have you heard? Lauren Meyer’s eldest daughter came back with a child in her arms. She’s been living here for a long time.” This voice was too familiar to me. It belonged to my neighbor, Patricia. She was a very boring person. “I’ve seen it several times. When Lauren Meyer went to buy food, she said she wanted to cook for her daughter and granddaughter.” Another person continued. “Didn’t Bella get divorced? Why did she give birth to a child again? When did she get married again? Why didn’t I hear from her mother?” This was the voice of the third person.

I knew the three of them too well. They liked to talk about other people’s scandals and they thought it was very fun.

However, even if these people liked to talk about others.

But if they were asked to help, they would still help.

Therefore, most of the time, no one cared what they said.

I didn’t want to care about them at first, but I didn’t expect to hear more unpleasant words soon.

“I guess she must have had a baby before she got married!” “Nonsense, how is that possible? Lauren Meyer is most afraid of losing face. She won’t allow such a thing to happen? And now Lauren Meyer is taking care of Bella and her child every day.”

“Why is it impossible? I lived opposite her house, and I heard it. One day, I heard someone crying inside.

After listening carefully, it turned out that Bella was apologizing to her mother. She said that she embarrassed Lauren Meyer. I guess it must be because of the child.”

“Well, that makes sense. It’s been more than two months since she came back with the child. Have you seen the child’s father come once?”

“No!” The other two said at the same time.

“Also, Bella hasn’t been back for about half a year. Lauren Meyer said that she went to work somewhere else. It seems that she must have gone to hide and have a baby.”

“Oh! It’s normal to have a baby. Maybe she broke up with her boyfriend. It’s not a big deal.”

“I don’t think so. I heard that the men that Bella knew were very rich. I guess that Bella must have become the third party and gotten pregnant. Rich men have wives and children, so they will definitely not marry her. So she came back with a child!” “Was she a mistress for rich people? After what you said, I suddenly remembered that I have a friend who was cleaning in a law department. She said that she seemed to have seen their boss’s girlfriend hit Bella!”

“It turns out to be true!”

. “Maybe more than one man.”

“I don’t think the man this time is rich If he is really rich, he would have already bought her hou and a car.

There is nothing now. Maybe he is 001 3 good person”

Hearing these words, I fell very uncomfortable, I hope my mother wouldn’t hear this. My mother valued dignity very much But fate was always joking with me, When I was young, mother was abandoned by Ryan She was strong willed but sensitive I reached out and wanted to gently close the window. I didn’t want to listen to those words I was also worried that mother would hear something But before my hand touched the window, I heard mother’s voice downstairs “What are you talking about? Do you have nothing to do? You worncnis tongues will be taken away by demons! Listen to what you are talking about I sneaked downstairs and found that mother had indeed come back from grocery shopping, I had never seen mother so fierce Someone used to talk about our family Generally speaking, mother would choose to endure I knew that mother cared about her and her daughters reputation the most. They used to talk about Ryan, saying that he was not a good man and my mother had been abandoned by him Now they were talking about me, her daughter No wonder mother, who had always been as well behaved as a rabbit, would brte them today If it was an ordinary woman, she would have left directly But today, she fought back. “Don’t be so harsh with your words, Oray? What we say is not wrong. DO you think everyone doesn’t know about your eldest daughter’s situation?”

“You’re bullying people! You’re talking about my daughter behind her back, aren’t you? It’s just that I didn’t lend you what you wanted to borrow from me a few days ago Why are you go petty? You can take revenge on me. Why are you talking about my daughter?” Mother rushed forward and solded.

At this moment, a neighbor said, “We’re all neighbors. Stop arguing!”

“That’s right. Don’t argue. We’ll meet often in the future. Don’t make things too embarrassing,’ said another neighbor “Do you know how embarrassing it is? You can’t talk about my daughter behind her back.”

Mother was very angry today, and her attitude was very tough.

The other two neighbor did not continue their conversation. However, Patricia continued, ‘We’re all telling the truth! Did your daughter have a child before marriage? Was she trying to ruin someone else’s family?

“Nonsense! My daughter had a child when she was married. Bella got married. It’s just that she got married the second time” Mother began to lie in order to maintain her dignity I wanted to stop her, but I didn’t say anything in the end.

I knew. Mother cared about it very much, If my reputation was spread out, people in this area would look down on our family and we would become the joke of the nearby residents in the future.”

Mother didn’t want it to happen.

Patricia cut her off with a cold laugh. “Lauren Meyer, we’ve already been neighbors for decades. I know everything about your family. Your daughter isn’t married at all.” “You…” Mother was very anxious and couldn’t say a word. “What about me? You have nothing more to say? Bah…” Patricia spat at my mother.

I couldn’t stand it anymore. I had to do something…
