Chapter 498
“Ms. Bella! Long time no see!” Neil stepped forward to greet her politely with his wife.
“Uncle Neil, you’re being so polite. You can just call me Bella like you. did when I was young.” There was a gentle look on Bella’s face, and
she did not put on any airs.
“That was when you were a child. Now, you’re a part of the company’s management and also Steve’s boss. Things are different now.”
Neil knew that the young lady before him now had a great reputation and was most likely to be Wyatt’s heir, so he had to be extra careful,
when speaking to her.
Hunter scoffed, feeling very embarrassed by the way his father was
lowering his head toward Bella.
Did the Lovetts really have to bow before the Thompsons for their
whole lives?
Were kings, dukes, and generals truly better simply because they were
born so?
Bella let Neil do what he wanted when she saw that he insisted on
being polite.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Lovett silently observed the Thompson sisters from
the side.
Bella had truly blossomed into a beauty. When she was young, she
looked like a porcelain doll, and now that she had grown up, she was
a-gorgeous stunner who mesmerized one at a glance.
No wonder her son, Steve, pined for Bella. Her heart ached for him..
Besides, there was too much of a gap between their family’s status. and the Thompsons’. Although the Lovetts were a famed scholarly family, the difference between their family and the richest family in Hatchbay, the Thompsons, was like heaven and earth.
Her son was reaching too high for the stars.
Mrs. Lovett turned her gaze to Amelia, who was standing there qui and in a refined manner.
“H-Hello, Mrs. Lovett!” Amelia hurriedly bowed politely to Mrs. Lovett. Her heart beat faster when she saw her crush’s mother, and she
blushed.
“Hello, Ms. Amelia.”
If her son really wanted to have a star, the youngest Thompson
daughter would be the next best thing.
She was well-behaved and gentle, so she made a very good match for
her youngest son. Her only flaw was that her mother was not Wyatt’s legal wife.
Although Amelia was also Wyatt’s daughter, Celeste and Wyatt had
never legally married and only shared this weak daughter between
them, so they must not be favored in the Thompson family.
If Mrs. Lovett allowed Steven to marry Amelia Thompson, she felt
that her son would lose out.
Amelia’s eyelashes fluttered as she snuck a glance at her crush.
But with just a glance, it was like someone had pressed pause on her excitedly thumping heart, and it started throbbing in pain.
Steven always only had eyes for Bella.
No one else understood that burning, passionate gaze better than she
did.
Because for the past seven years, had she not watched him from
with the same gaze?
It was quite lively in Yara Park tonight. Only Asher could not make it
as he was too busy with work, having gone on a business trip
overseas and unable to make it back in time.
