Susan was shocked for a moment. She didn't expect that this extraordinary young man in front of her would be so graceful.
"I don't have any special conditions. Bella said that you were very rich, but sometimes, we women need more than money. We need both material things and mental comfort. I hope you can spend more time with her instead of just giving her money. To be honest, we don't lack money for now." Susan had figured everything out. She felt that money was not the most important thing. Mutual understanding, responsibilities, and obligations between couples were all very important.
Bella looked at her mother in disbelief. Since when did she become so clear-headed?
"Mom, I just started dating him. Don't be so serious." Bella was worried that Ben would be scared away by her mother.
Ben replied seriously, "Your mother is right. I would definitely spend more time with her and not make her feel lonely."
"I like being alone." Bella whispered.
Susan kicked her under the table and did not allow her to speak nonsense.
Ben almost laughed out loud. Was Bella here to embarrass her mother?
"Mom, shall we eat?" Bella was extremely embarrassed. She felt that her mother was here to negotiate on the conditions, but she was at the beginning of love, what conditions could she have?
Susan observed Ben's reaction and found that this man was very gentlemanly and patient. Moreover, his gaze was sincere and his words were proper. She was somewhat satisfied in her heart.
Afterwards, Susan did not say anything else. She only observed Ben's behavior from time to time and found that he was courteous and polite. With his excellent cultivation and demeanor, she did not know what kind of family he came from. Was he her daughter's blessing?
After lunch, Susan found an excuse to leave and left the room for the two. Bella watched as her mother walked away. She then turned to look at Ben and knitted her brows. "Sorry, my mother is a bit verbose. She has received quite amount of blows recently. She wasn't like this before."
Ben looked at her with a smile and said, "Your mother cares about you very much."
Seeing that he wasn't angry, and instead, he looked at her with such affectionate eyes, she lowered her head in embarrassment and said, "My mother has only one daughter. She has cared for me ever since I was young."
"You live in a happy family. Even though your parents are divorced, they still give you a lot of love." Ben chuckled.
"I know." Bella's pretty face flashed with sadness. "If only they haven't divorced."
"As their daughter, you have no way to control their emotions, but you can calm down and stop feeling sad. Come to my company for a visit after lunch." Ben reached out and held her finger to comfort her.
Bella nodded her head, "Alright, I don't want to go to class in the afternoon anyway. I'm going to skip it."
Ben's gaze became serious, "This is not what a good student should do."
"I know, but I really don't want to go to class this afternoon. I can go home and study." Bella revealed a mischievous expression.
Ben couldn't do anything to her, "Alright, as you wish."
Bella followed Ben to his company. Coincidentally, she met Ada who was seeing clients off in the lobby. She was in a formal suit and her temperament changed greatly. She was becoming more and more feminine.
Ada turned around and saw Bella and Ben. Her expression became wooden.
Bella glanced at Ben. She wanted to go over to greet her, but he suddenly grabbed her shoulder and forcefully carried her into the private elevator.
