Chapter 15
Alfred had became the son-in-law of the Song family.
Everyone looked at Rosaline in disbelief.
Alfred and Jane exchanged glances and smiled.
Everything was under their control.
“Grandma, I don’t agree!” Bella stood up right away, her face turning pale.
Rosaline darted a glance at Bella and added, “You all must be wondering why Alfred is present here today. Allow me to explain it to you.”
Rosaline cleared her throat and continued, “Alfred is the most important guest of our family. There are three reasons for his presence here today.”
“Firstly, he saved Bella two days ago and this makes him the lifesaver of our family We will be forever indebted to him for this great deal he has done.”
Bella could not help but clench her fists upon hearing that.
She felt suffocated.
She knew it.
She knew that the fact he had saved her would become her Achille’s heel.
This was essentially a moral abduction.
All of a sudden, a man down the stage grabbed Bella’s hand gently.
She lowered her head and met Chase’s eyes.
He looked at her with much gentleness in his eyes as if he was not troubled by any of these at all.
Bella couldn’t help feeling bitter.
In fact, she was a little resentful of Chase.
She whispered in her heart, “Chase, why didn’t you save me on that night?”
She was in a dilemma at this moment.
“As you all know, Alfred is going to inherit the Timber Group. Everyone in the city knows that he comes from a family of doctors. Their family also develops various medicinal products. By saving Bella, he has successfully proven himself a man skillful in medicine and how much he loves Bella,”
Rosaline explained. “Both our families are very similar. This makes him the perfect man for Bella. They are practically a match made in heaven.”
Bella was about to refute before Chase stopped her. “Let her finish her words.”
Rosaline thought, “Very well. I never expect this guy is sensible enough to stop Bella from interrupting me.”
She sneered and continued, “Secondly, Alfred told me last night the reason he could not get the contact with Helping Hands Medical Center nail down. Perhaps most of you have already heard about it. But, do any of you know the reason?”
The crowd shook their heads.
“It’s because the Helping Hands Medical Center has changed its spokesperson yesterday! Word has it that a young man is now the new owner of the Helping Hands Medical Center.”
Rosaline took a deep breath and added, “Hence, when Bella went to look for Chloe yesterday, she pretended to refuse our offer in the name of this good-for-nothing. Well, the truth is she could no longer make any decisions.”
The crowd burst into an uproar.
None of them expected a change in the owner of the Helping Hands Medical Center.
Bella was also surprised to receive this news.
Was that the reason?
No wonder Chloe treated Chase that way in the previous day. Bella thought that Chloe had already found out the conflict between Chase and the Song family.
Thus, she used this reason not to collaborate with the Song’s.
In this way, Chloe had made Chase the scapegoat. On the other hand, the Songs would never blame Chloe and the Helping Hands Medical Center, too.
Bella mumbled softly, “Chloe, you are such a scheming, cunning woman!”
“Grandma, who is the new owner? I want to give it a try.” Ethan blurted out.
Rosaline nodded approvingly. “Calm down, Ethan. No one now knows who the owner is. Don’t worry. As long as we find out some clues, we will send you to give it a try.”
Bella couldn’t help but whisper, “We’ve been in contact with the Helping Hands Medical Center all along”
Rosaline interjected Bella, “Don’t you understand, Bella? Every new sovereign brings his own courtiers. The owner of the center has changed and we have to come out with a new plan. Ethan has proven his ability to everyone in recent years. However, you, Bella, are not trying to improve yourself at all. Should I waste any more of my faith in you? Do you want the scandal yesterday to happen to our family again?” Rosaline’s upper lips curled in disdain.
“Lastly, Alfred has brought us good news. In the past few years, Alfred’s family has been the biggest drug supplier of the Helping Hands Medical Center. Half a year ago, he had already signed a contract worth ten million dollars with the Helping Hands Medical Center. He had persuaded his father to transfer half of the shares of the contract, which is worth five million dollars of orders, to us.”
Rosaline looked at Alfred and added proudly, “He’s doing this in order to compensate for the damage inflicted on our family for failing to secure the contract yesterday.”
Rosaline threw a glance at Bella with a smirk, as if she was trying to remind Bella that Alfred had covered the losses they suffered because of her. That good-for nothing was no match for Alfred.
“Really?” Bella’s eyes widened.
“However, Alfred’s family will only do this on the condition that you divorce this loser and promise to marry Alfred,” said Rosaline.
Bella’s face turned sullen and red right away. “No, I won’t divorce Chase! I’m going to keep him by side even if he is a good-for-nothing!”
Her words made every member of the Song family boil with fury.
Everyone present knew how little Chase’s contribution to the family was in the past few years.
Despite having no talents or skills, he never showed any regards for the Songs.
He should be aware of his own worth as a good for-nothing.
One of the men in the house roared, “Bella! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Your company is in danger now. Can’t you see Young Master Gao’s love for you after everything he has done so much for you?”Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
The woman next to him added, “Without Young Master Gao’s help, I can guarantee that your company will go bankrupt at the end of this year. At that point in time, we’ll the one who cleans the mess up for you too!”
“Young Master Gao doesn’t even mind about your current situation and status. How dare you refuse his kindness and suggestions so many times! What are you trying to do? Don’t you know it’s basically a second chance for our family and you if you were to accept Young Master Gao’s proposal? Do you really want to waste your life on this piece of trash?”
Everyone who was present was accusing Bella for being inconsiderate mercilessly.
Bella’s tears coursed down her cheeks.
Chase immediately stood up and overturned the round table with a kick.
“Hey, you old woman! Do you have a death wish?”
Everyone was enraged by Chase’s rude attitude towards Rosaline.
A man pointed his finger at Chase and yelled. *D*mn! You are just a dog owned by our family. How dare you open your mouth?”
“We won’t have to go through so many troubles if it weren’t for what you’d done yesterday. Don’t you know that you’ve put us in such a difficult situation, you sinner, a middle-aged woman bellowed.
“We have spent our money to raise you for the last decade like a dog. Never do we know that we have raised such an ungrateful brat!
Another woman ranted, ‘Because of you, we can hardly keep our heads up in Golden City. The wedding between Bella and you three years ago was simply a nightmare for us! You didn’t even prepare any betrothal gifts. How dare you be so rude! Get out of here, now!”
Chase took Bella’s hand and went towards the door.
The Songs sneered when they saw Chase going to leave the house.
Great, he should get the hell out of here!
He should even leave the Song family as soon as possible!
They could not wait to see Chase suffer without the protection under the Song family in Golden City.
Being a well-known dog was the most suitable title for him.
Alfred, on the other hand, was elated.
Haha, this was what he had been waiting to see. No one would be able to lend a helping hand to Chase if he left the Song family.
In the end, Bella would definitely turn to him and go into his arms.
Very well, very well!
However, at this very moment, a nanny came into the house without warning.
“Grandma Rosaline, the Rx Pharma has sent Mr. Wang here. He wishes to speak to Mr. Lu.”
