Chapter 90
Chase’s heart skipped a beat. He immediately played dumb and replied,”Madison’s perfume?
What are you talking about?”
Bella did not back down. She grabbed and sniffed his clothes again before her whole expression changed instantly.
“This is obviously the perfume Madison likes. I’ve been with her for so many years. How could I not recognize it? I can even tell it a mile away!” Her face instantly turned cold.
Chase couldn’t help but panic.
Madison was really good at making trouble.
Very well, here came his doomsday.
When Bella saw the change in Chase’s expression, disappointment and sorrow consumed her heart right away.
She remembered the phone call Madison made in the evening.
Madison was speaking very seductively.
Her every word on the phone could make a person’s face blushed right away.
Madison asked him if he was going to ditch her…
She also mentioned that he already booked a room…
Madison was not on the phone with the owner of the Helping Hands Medical Center.
She was talking with Chase!
She was flirting with Chase in front of Bella despite knowing the fact that Chase was Bella’s husband!
Moreover, Chase actually agreed to it and went on the date with Madison without Bella’s knowledge….
Thinking of this, Bella’s eyes turned moist.
Chase panicked right away.
He treated Madison well because he regarded her as his sister.
They never saw each other romantically, they did not have any feelings for each other.
More importantly, he agreed to go out with Madison this evening because…
Chase stretched out his hand, wanting to wipe away Bella’s tears, but she slapped his hand away.
He took a deep breath and looked at her, saying, “Bella, don’t you understand my feelings for you? There are so many other women out there but I still choose you over them.
Well, I admit that I did go out to have a drink with Madison this evening, but I can’t tell you the reason yet.”
Bella looked at Chase coldly. She, of course, knew his feelings for her.
But she still felt uneasy. It was as if there was a huge rock that was stuck in her heart.
“Bella, trust me. I’ll explain everything to you in a few days’ time! It’s for your own good,” Chase whispered, his voice a little hoarse.
Bella stared at him and saw the worried look on his face.
Suddenly, the rock in her heart was lifted off.
After experiencing so many ups and downs, Bella believed that Chase and Madison were blameless.
They would do anything that betrayed her.
However…
“You’re sleeping on the floor. For one month!”
Bella kicked him off the bed without any mercy.
Chase’s heart ached. The bitterness in him almost drowned him.
It was supposed to be a beautiful night. He should be sleeping together in the bed with Bella.
But it was completely ruined by his sister-in-law.
He ended up having to spend one month sleeping on the floor!
The next day, Chase woke up and noticed that Bella was still giving him a cold shoulder.
She hadn’t decided to let it pass.
He knew she wouldn’t let him off the hook so soon.
He deliberately kept his distance from her so she would have some space to calm down.
Later during the day, he stayed at the Helping Hands Medical Center.
In the evening, he went for a meal with Chloe and Sophis out of the blue.
However, after the meal, he received a phone call from Bella.
He immediately perked up and answered,”Bella.”
“Come to Hoversky Restaurant right away.
We’ll have a family dinner this evening,” she said with a frosty tone.
But for Chase, her voice was brimming with warmth and tenderness.
Bella did not forget about him.
After she hung up the phone, she felt so wretched and miserable.
Obviously, she didn’t want to talk to Chase, but she just couldn’t do it. He was always on her mind.
Ah, this felt so bad!
Chase strode towards Hoversky Restaurant right away as he was having his dinner right beside it.
As soon as he arrived in the private dining room of the restaurant, everyone in the Song family was staring at him.
“Oh, who invited the security guard of the Helping Hands Medical Center?” Ethan glanced at him and teased. “I must say that you’re quite good at finding out this type of information. Why do you come? Are you here to get a free meal? You’re indeed a useless good-for-nothing.”
Chase immediately got the hint in Ethan’s words. The Song family didn’t invite him nor welcome him here at all.
Bella had invited him by herself..
Bella looked on as Ethan continued mocking Chase. Chase did not show any signs to rebuke Ethan. After hesitating for a while, she pulled Chase to her side and announced,”I am the one who invites him. After all, he is also a part of our family.”
Ethan continued sarcastically, “Hmph! He’s also an employee of the Helping Hands Medical Center. I don’t even know if he’s going to bite our hands one day in the future!”
Bella ignored Ethan and pulled Chase to his seat.
Rosaline shot Chase a cold stare and said, It’s our family gathering today but it’s also a celebration party. I set up this gathering for Madison.
Without her, we can’t sign this exclusive contract with the Helping Hands Medical Center.”NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
At this time, Madison was peeping at Chase and Bella a sheepishly. She could sense the awkwardness between them.
There was something wrong with this loving couple.
She knew that it must be related to her doing.
She immediately said to Rosaline, “Grandma, he owner of the Helping Hands Medical Center has mentioned that Bella’s involvement contributes 50% to this matter.
We should accredit her for her help to get this contract.
Rosaline thought for a moment and nodded ‘Since Bella has a mysterious supporter behind her, I assume that the Helping Hands Medical Center is doing this for him. Well, it’s not surprising.”
Madison wanted to explain further, but she eventually held back her tongue.
She knew what the truth was.
It was her brother-in-law who made all these possible. He was virtually giving alms to the Song family!
“We do not only celebrate this evening, but we will also come out with some strategies about our future operations and how we are going to deal with the Helping Hands Medical Center. I have a suggestion here.”
Rosaline paused for a while and continued, I recommend handing this project entirely over to Ethan. ”
Upon hearing this, Madison immediately rose from her seat.
Her expression also changed instantly!
“Grandma! Obviously, we are able to come to where we are today because of Bella and me. You should make a choice between one of us to deal with the medical center! Why do you choose Ethan?” Madison raised her voice.
However, Rosaline’s cold look made Madison button her lips right away before she took her seat again indignantly.
“Of course I have my own considerations when I’ve decided to pass it to Ethan. Let me ask you, among the three of you, who has the most connections and friends?” Rosaline asked coldly.
No one dared to answer.
Bella, however, plucked up her courage and retorted, “Since Madison is the one who gets the contract, she has proven her ability to take up this responsibility. We could always build our connections later, couldn’t we?”
“Hmph! Build the connections later?
Well, since you have brought this up, then enlighten me on your ways of building these connections!
Can you go to clubhouses to drink with men at night? If you promise that you can entertain those men, I will give this project to you immediately!” Rosaline replied project to you immediately!” Rosaline replied, her eyes sparkling with coldness.
Bella’s face froze. Rosaline was being so unreasonable.
Rosaline continued to reprimand Bella,”Bella, think about it! If you didn’t marry this good-for-nothing, no one in Golden City would look down on you! Given your lovely
appearance, every man in this city would love to chase after you. To put it simply, it’s your own fault!”
Bella was so angry that her face turned red.
She was about to retort before Chase grabbed her hand and stopped her.
He whispered, ‘It’s alright. Let them assign this task to Ethan.”
