"Mom, forget it. Stop talking with her. She is so intolerable." Bella said angrily.
"OK, I don't want to interfere. She is right, my marriage is broken. How can I meddle in others' affairs?" Susan covered her face with her hands and cried. But Bella didn't know if her mother was sad or wronged.
Bella stiffened and sat on the sofa. Suddenly, she felt disappointed in life. She thought that she had lived a miserable life. But she didn't expect that June's life was more miserable than hers.
When Bella returned to school in the afternoon, she was dispirited and couldn't concentrate on her lessons.
Her mind was filled with June's gloomy eyes.
Then Bella turned on her phone and searched the Internet. She found several videos of June dancing. June danced with a smile on her face, full of vitality. She was simply like a flower to bloom. She was extremely beautiful with long hair, like a beauty in a painting.
"What a pity." Bella thought. Suddenly, she wanted to help her. After class, Bella planned to take a taxi to Ben's company. He was the only one who could help her. Bella believed that with Ben's capacity, he would investigate easily that man who June would marry. Bella walked out of the school gate with her schoolbag on her back. Suddenly, she saw Ada talking and laughing with the other two girls. Bella took a look and turned her gaze away.
Ada also saw Bella, but the smile on her face disappeared instantly. Ada looked at Bella as if she was looking at an enemy and her life was ruined by Bella.
Hurriedly, Bella waved her hand to stop a taxi and sat on it. Through the window, she saw Ada's resentful gaze at her.
Bella ignored her. Then she arrived at Ben's company hall and called him. Ben personally came down to pick her up. Ben was very satisfied with Bella's initiative to visit him.
"Do you come to me for dinner?" Ben's eyes were full of smile and his gaze couldn't help but fall on Bella. She seemed to have a lot on her mind.
Bella shook her head with sadness in her eyes, "Ben, I'm here to ask you for a favor."
"What?" Ben asked curiously.
"I want you to help me investigate someone." Bella knew from her mother that the man was Jonas who June was going to marry. However, nothing about Jonas could be found on the Internet. Bella only knew that he was quite rich and had made lots of investments. He was a low-key and invisible rich man. Bella had heard of him from her mother before, but she had never contacted him.
"Jonas?" Ben's expression changed instantly. "What are you investigating him for? Don't tell me you're interested in him."
"Of course not. He is so old. What interest can I have in him? It's just that a girl I know might marry him. I feel sorry for her when I think of that old man." Bella pouted and explained softly.
"Is he very old? He is only around thirty. Two or three years older than me. A man of that age was old?" Ben's handsome face was filled with shock. And he felt suddenly that he was getting old.
