Chapter 220
Bella’s POV: I was so frightened that I took two steps back until my back was pressed against a flower rack! I looked up and saw the resentment in Betty’s eyes. I instinctively protected Lucky with my arms. Clang.
At this moment, the door opened and a gentle voice was heard.
“Today’s ingredients are so fresh, and the cod fish is also very good. Bella, I’ll cook something delicious for you tonight.”
I heaved a sigh of relief when I heard my mother’s voice!
I was not afraid of fighting, but I was afraid I would hurt Lucky. It was good that mother was here. She wouldn’t watch me fight Betty.
“Mom, you’re back.” Betty immediately turned around to greet her. “Hey, Betty is here too?” Seeing Betty, mother said with a smile.
“Mom, I just arrived. My sister told me that you went shopping.” Betty replied with a smile.
“Let’s have lunch together. I bought a lot of food,” mother said with a smile.
I was shocked to see Betty and mother talking and laughing.
Was this still the same fierce Betty as before? At this moment, her face was full of smiles. She talked to mother kindly, and there was no hint of fierceness on her face.
At this time, Lucky was still crying. I quickly carried her and sat back on the sofa. Then I untied my shirt and began to feed her milk. She was a little better
When mother heard Lucky crying, she quickly ran over and said, “Why is Lucky crying so hard today?”
“She…” I was about to answer.
Betty, however, stepped forward and said, “Mom, it’s all my fault. I spoke a little louder just now. I seemed to have scared her.”
“Lucky’s only two months old. Can’t you keep your voice down? You’re also a mother, and you’re still so reckless.” Mother scolded Betty.
“Mom, I got it.” After that, Betty stepped forward and said with a smile, “Sister, my baby is almost a year old. Hank is afraid that I would be tired, so he hired a nanny for me. I’ll come and take care of Lucky when I’m free, okay?”
I stared at Betty with a special gaze. It was undeniable that she was really hypocritical.
How did the lovely Betty become the hypocritical person I hate?
I really couldn’t believe that she would become like this in one or two years,
“There’s no need. I can take care of Lucky myself.” I answered Betty in a cold tone.
Perhaps mother had also seen through my cold attitude towards Betty. She rebuked, “Bella, it’s just your sister good intention.”
“Mom, I’m an adult. I have my ability to judge? Lucky is sleepy. I’ll take her to sleep.” After that, I went back to my bedroom with Lucky in my arms.
Chapter 220
15 50 I closed the door. I didn’t know what Betty would say in front of mother, but I really didn’t want to pay attention to it.
Betty was crying just now. She said that you would ignore her in the future. Bella, your sister is also worried about you. Seeing you holding a child, you have to rely on yourself for everything. This is just the beginning, and there is still a long way to go in the future. She is worried about you. If Betty is willing to help you, you will feel less stressed.
I thought Betty would criticize me, but I didn’t expect her to tell mother that she did it for my own good. She was noble and innocent.
I underestimated Betty. She was much better at scheming than me.
Of course, I wouldn’t expose Betty’s tricks. I disdained her and didn’t want mother to worry.
Besides, even if I told her everything now, mother may not believe me. Betty and I are both her daughters. Mother would never believe that Betty would become like this today.
Finally, I lowered my head and thought for a moment. I said, “Mom, okay. I understand.”
Hearing that, her mother smiled and said, “That’s great. By the way, the day after tomorrow is Betty’s daughter, Anne’s birthday. Remember to prepare a decent gift for Anne.”
“Mom, I got it.” I nodded in the end.
“Okay.” Mother went back to her room with satisfaction.
Sitting at the dining table, I thought, “I can’t be too agitated in order not to make mom worry.” So in the afternoon of the next day, when Lucky was asleep. I went to the mall alone to choose a birthday present for Anne.
