Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love By Christin Donald ( Edward ) novel Chapter 2

Chapter 2 

In the ward, Belle’s lips suddenly felt dry. 

Thanks to Yana’s words, Belle received her parents‘ attention for the first time since the blood transfusion. 

Both Jane and Carl looked at her at the same time. 

Belle, who used to be ignored, suddenly became the center of attention.

“Dad, you know what kind of person I am. Even if I did marry Adam, I’d most probably offend him. Since Belle has a better personality than me, I bet she’d be a better fit for Adam,” Yana quickly exclaimed. 

Carl cocked his brows. He had to admit, Yana had a point and he was a little convinced. 

Yana was spoiled and a little selfish. And given her unwillingness to marry Adam, if she was forced to marry Adam, she might turn the marriage alliance into a fallout of the two families. 

If it were Belle, with her timid personality, even if she couldn’t win Adam’s heart, she wouldn’t offend him either. 

Carl looked at Belle with a scrutinizing gaze. He was seriously considering the possibility of marrying his eldest daughter off to Adam. 

He pondered for a moment and asked, “Belle, what are your thoughts on this?” 

“Belle, you’re going to marry a great man! You’ll definitely agree to such a great marriage, right? Yana, sensing her father’s thoughts, was pleased and quickly chimed in. 

Belle’s face paled and the clenched her fists slightly. 

“Belle, you’re going to live a luxurious life once you’re married to Adam. The way I see it, you should be grateful to Yana for offering you such a good opportunity,” Jane added to persuade Belle.

Belle’s lip quivered. She seldom complained but this time they went too far, so she whispered, “Yana, on t 

the night of the banquet, the Landor family had spread the word in advance that they were going to select a wife for Adam, right?” 

Yana was getting impatient. “Why are you bringing this up now?” 

Belle answered softly, “Since you why the banquet was held, why did you dance at the banquet?” 

Yana was very good–looking, and she was an excellent dancer as well. 

Back at the banquet, she outshone everyone and, as a result, gained the favor of Charlie Landor, the

head of the Landor family, who promised her the position of Mrs. Landor. 

If Yana wasn’t willing to marry Adam, why did she seek the limelight at the time? 

And since she did, why was she getting others to bear the consequences? 

Belle spoke calmly, believing that she wasn’t exaggerating and was just pointing out a fact. 

However, Yana stared at her in disbelief, as if Belle had said something terrible to her. 

Tears streamed down Yana’s face. “Belle, I was just dancing at the banquet that night. I didn’t know what awaited me. If you don’t want to help me, just say so. There’s no need for those insinuations.” 

With that said. Yana cried even harder. She clutched her chest as if she might faint at any moment. 

“My dear.” Jane hurriedly pulled Yana into her arms. Her eyes were filled with pity. When she turned to Belle, her eyes became sharp. “Belle, how could you say that to your sister? Apologize. right now!” 

Belle’s heart ached when she heard those words. 

She had always been the one who had been making compromises since she was a kid. 

However, she wasn’t going to come to a comprise this time, for it was about her married life and her well–being. 

Belle slowly replied, “Was I wrong? If Yana didn’t want to marry Adam, she shouldn’t have sought attention at the banquet held by the Landor family. She can’t crave the spotlight and then shy away from the consequences. That’s not how the world works-” 

“Shut your mouth!” 

With a sharp smack, Carl slapped Belle hard across the face, and he shouted angrily, “Yana’s already in poor health, why are you making her worked up like that? How can you be so horrible and mean?” 

Did Carl just say that she was mean? 

Was she actually being mean? 

What had she done to deserve to be called mean? 

Belle forced a smile, looking at her father with a hint of defiance. “Yes, she’s weak and I’m healthy. Therefore, I should always yield to her, right? I will need to give blood to her regularly and clean up the mess she makes, right?” 

Carl became even more infuriated. “Are you implying that you don’t want to give blood to your sister anymore? Are you going to stand there and do nothing as you watch her die?”

For once, Belle didn’t back down. She spoke slowly, “I’m willing to regularly give blood to her, but she frequently injures herself and bleeds. The blood I’ve given her far exceeds the scheduled. amounts. This time, she slit her wrist without thinking of the consequences and I had to give her 800cc of blood. Why must I always pay the price for her carelessness and whims? Is that fair to 

me?” 

In a cathartic manner, Belle voiced the sentiments she had long harbored. 

Yana knew exactly what illness she had, yet she was never cautious, and would frequently get herself injured. Every time she got hurt, it made her parents quite anxious, and it allowed Yana to receive more attention. 

But what about Belle? 

Every time Yana was injured, it would end in Belle giving her blood. 

She was severely underweight due to constantly giving Yana blood. Belle had given way more than she was supposed to.. 

It was not that Belle didn’t want to donate blood or save her sister, but with full knowledge of her condition, couldn’t Yana be just a bit more careful in her daily life? 

Perhaps it had never crossed Yana’s mind. 

Every time she was injured, she was never the one facing the consequences or the dangers. 

It had always been Belle who suffered. 

Just as Belle finished speaking. Yana began sobbing. Tears trickled down her cheeks. “It breaks my heart to know you think of me that way.” 

Jane was immensely worried when she saw Yana crying, and she looked at Belle with anger in her eyes. “Yana has health issues, and dancing has been her only hobby since she was a child. It’s normal for people to get hurt when they dance. She was never intentional when she needed you to give her blood. Why do you have to be so mean to her?” 

Carl furrowed his brows as well. “Even though you’ve been donating blood, we’ve always provided you with the relative supplements as well! You know full well how expensive the supplements are, right? Belle, we’ve never mistreated you!” 

“Mom, Dad, Belle hates me now,” Yana cried as she clung to Jane. 

Various voices echoed in Belle’s mind, and suddenly, she felt the world was absurd. 

Why… 

She was their daughter as well.

Why did they favorite Yana so much and made it seem normal? 

Just because she was born healthy, did that mean she had to endure all of this? 

“You’ve upset your sister, but she was still thinking of letting you marry Adam. She’s giving you a chance to have a good marriage.” Carl said with a frown. “Aren’t you ashamed of what you’re doing? 

Belle pursed her lips. “A good marriage? Then why did she rather slit her wrist than marry that 

man?” 

Carl became infuriated and slapped Belle again.
