Chapter 243
Let Love Takes Away All This Pain
Chapter 243: Alcoholism H City, airport.
York picked up the ticket and came behind Uriah.
Uriah is on the phone.
Listening to the phone, he said, âCheck to see if he really went to Sydney.â
âOk, Boss Irwin.â
York hung up on Uriah and handed him the ticket.
Uriah took it and went inside.
Theyâre going to California.
Thereâs a big development going on over there. Go check it out.
Bella sat on the hotel couch with a glass of red wine in her hand, taking a sip from it.
And thereâs a cell phone on the table next to it, and itâs on speakerphone, and the voices are coming through.
âBoss Irwin left for California at two oâclock in the afternoon.â
Bella smiled as she heard this.
Alva left H City and returned to C City, and Jackson left H City for Sydney.
If the circumstances of the breakup are anything to go by, thatâs fine.
After all, Jackson came back to deal with Alvaâs online publicity problem.
Now that things are settled, itâs normal to go back.
At first, she didnât think much of it.
But Alvaâs private investigator called her, said Jackson was at Alvaâs.
He sent her pictures of the two of them together.
So, the two are meeting behind closed doors.
Oh, Jackson, youâve learned how to play tricks.
She was pleased with Jacksonâs change.
But it was not long before she received word that Uriah was going to California.
Where is California?
California is right next to C City, less than two hours away.
Itâs so close.
So, Uriah, are you with Alva or are you with Alva?
Bella finishes her glass and empties the bottle, but itâs empty.
She dropped the bottle on the floor, staggered to her feet, and went to the liquor cabinet to get a drink.
Soon she brought out a bottle, opened it, sat down on the sofa, and continued drinking.
Wine is a good thing, you can forget a lot.
Knock, knock, knock the door.
Bellaâs not responding.
245 (Vouchers The man outside kept knocking, and this time the voice came in. âBella, open the door.â
At last Bella had something to say. Holding her glass, she staggered to the door and opened it.
As soon as the door opened, a strong smell of wine jumped on Calliope, Calliopeâs face changed, and he quickly pulled her in and closed the door.
âHow much have you had to drink?
The smell of wine!
Bella chuckled. âJust in time to have a drink with me.â
He turned and walked toward the sofa.
Calliope saw her wobbly and hastened to help her.
When she went to help her, she saw the broken wine bottle on the ground, full of fragments.
She grabbed Bella quickly. âDonât go, itâs dangerous!â
Bella pushed her. âWhat danger? This is my place, whatâs at stake?â
Calliope saw her red face, full of drunk appearance, directly pulled her to the bed, said: âWhat happened to you?â Learned to drink?â
Bella lay in bed, giggling, âWhat alcohol is not alcohol, I only know this wine is good, can make me feel less uncomfortable, less pain.â
Calliope has a headache.
She hasnât been right since the day I gave her the file.
These days she said to stop the work at hand, she would rest for some time.
She said yes.
Sheâs been taking a hit both professionally and emotionally.
And she does deserve some rest.
But I donât think so. She drinks!
âBella, youâre an international star. Look at you now. What do you look like?â
Bella opened her eyes and looked up at the crystal lights overhead. âInternational superstar?
International superstarâ¦â
Suddenly, she laughed and sat up, âCalliope, Iâm an international superstar, but you know what? Uriah doesnât like international stars. She likes a woman who gets everything down to the dust. Isnât that funny?â
Thirty years, they have known since now, a full thirty years of time.
Such feelings, ask, who has?
Who the fuck has one!
Bellaâs eyes turned red. âLet me ask you, how long is a personâs life?â
âGood, live 70 or 80 years, bad, 20 or 30 years, normal, 50 or 60 years.â
âI Bella gave him Uriah half my life, and now his heart isnât mine!â
âNot mine anymore!!â
She roared, and the veins on her excited neck sprang up.
The eyes and ears are red.
This is Bella Calliope. This is the first time.
âBella, youâre drunk. Get some sleep now. Iâll talk to you when you wake up.â
Bella pushed her away. âIâm glad Iâm not drunk.â
She went for the bottle, slipped, and fell to the floor.
Calliope saw this and cried, âBella!â
To pull her, but it was too late.
Bella fell on broken glass.
Calliopeâs face changed and she rushed to help her. âBella, how are you?â
Bella lay on her stomach and didnât move, but tears streamed down her face.
Uriah, thirty years, I gave you the best years of Bellaâs youthâ¦
