Chapter 52
“It will be your birthday two days later. Hahaha! Do you think that Chase is going to give you a big surprise?” Jane asked sarcastically, deliberately mentioning Chase’s name.
Upon hearing this, Bella was even more upset. “What does it have to do with me? Don’t bother me anymore!
After saying that, Bella went out of the house without any hesitation.
However, Jane turned to Chase and continued to spat words of poison. “Hey, how can you be so different from that man? That man gives an extravagant villa while you give nothing at all. Besides, it happened to be on the same day. What a shame!”
Chase smiled at Jane. “Really? What did you say a while ago if I am the one who bought the Emperor’s Flower?”
Jane burst into laughter. “Wow, your shameless look is really cute.”
She was excitedly counting down to Bella’s birthday celebration.
In two days’ time, Chase would be thrown out of this family!
It was even possible that Alfred would directly chuck him out of Golden City.
For the past two days, Jane had been busy preparing for Bella’s birthday party.
Bella was in such a bad mood that she never talked about the celebration at all.
It was not her birthday party anyway. It was just another big show of the Song family in the name of her birthday.
She didn’t expect Chase to give her any birthday present either.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
In the evening, Jane returned home and said to Bella, “Bella, your birthday party is ready. Come with me.”
Bella looked up at Jane and said, “I’ll go with Chase. Why do you have to come back home just to inform us?”
Jane gave them a sneer. “Hehe, I’m afraid that you lose your direction on the way.”
Bella felt heavy-hearted.
Jane was not afraid that she would lose her direction.
She was worried that Bella would not attend the birthday party as this could humiliate the Song family.
Bella said coldly, “Okay, I see.”
She turned to Chase and said, “Chase, can you please drive?”
Chase could see the guilt in her eyes.
She knew that Chase was looking forward to celebrating her birthday with her too.
However, they ended up doing something they hated the most on this special day of hers.
Chase comforted her with a smile before he got up to get the car.
Bella got into the car and asked, “Which hotel are we going?”
Jane, who was in the back row, replied calmly, “We are not going to a hotel. We are going to a big suite in the Pinnacle Real Estate.”
Hearing this, Bella frowned immediately.
No one would hold a birthday party in someone else’s house.
When she was about to find out more, Chase turned the steering wheel and said, “Okay!”
Bella’s eyes sparkled. Why was Chase not suspicious of this matter?
Why didn’t he ask for the reason that it wasn’t held in a hotel?
Chase seemed to have read Bella’s mind. He gave her a reassuring smile and replied, “It’s okay. I’m going there too.”
Bella was at a loss for words.
Jane, who was in the back row, gave the couple another sneer.
Throughout the drive, Bella could see various posters of Angelina’s concert at the roadside.
This made her feel even more downcasted.
When they arrived at the Pinnacle Real Estate, Bella suddenly felt a strong reluctance to get off the car.
This place had haunted her for so long. It was like a needle that was constantly poking her heart.
Everyone knew that a mysterious man in Golden City had bought the Emperor’s Flower in the Pinnacle Real Estate.
Besides, it would be given to his bride on this very day. A lot of people would gather over there, waiting for that rich man to come and offer his gift to his bride.
Jane must have hidden motives. Otherwise, she would not organize the birthday party here.
She wanted to take this opportunity to humiliate Chase that he did not give Bella any wedding gifts years ago.
Bella was preoccupied in her thoughts along the way before she saw not far ahead, a huge curtain was covering something beneath it.
It looked like a flower bud that was going to blossom. Bella thought, “The Pinnacle Real Estate is still under construction. But the Song family are in such a hurry to hold the party here…”
Jane saw lots of reporters in front of the Emperor’s Flower which was located not too far away. Her smile was becoming wryer.
She led Bella and Chase to a commercial house.
Bella looked up at the door and frowned.
The whole building was decorated with lanterns and red-colored ribbons. There waseven a huge arched door that was set up at the entrance.
It was as if someone was holding a wedding ceremony.
But the Pinnacle Real Estate was just newly launched…
Jane walked in the house and took the lift to go to the top floor.
When they reached the top floor, Bella’s face darkened at once.
There was only one unit on this floor.
The entrance of the house was decorated with a pair of Chinese couplets as if they were the ones who were holding a wedding.
Bella even thought that she was at the wrong house.
However, Jane dragged Bella into the house without any explanation.
As soon as Bella entered the house, she saw all the members of the Song family had already taken their seats on the largest table in the middle of the room.
The remaining nine tables were still empty. The guests had not arrived yet.
Bella couldn’t help asking Jane, “Mom, what are all these about?”
Jane replied calmly, “We should spend our money wisely, shouldn’t we? We have a friend who is willing to lend us this house to hold the birthday party for you. We don’t have to spend any money at all. By the way. what do you think of the house?
Isn’t it big?
Do you like it?”
How could Bella believe Jane’s nonsense?
She looked around and found that this house was more than 180 square meters. In fact, it really was luxurious.
Jane pulled Bella to the window and said proudly, “Look, we can see the Emperor’s Flower from here. We can get a good view over here. Haha, let’s see who that mysterious man is!”
Bella looked out of the window and immediately spotted a magnificent villa amidst the other villas. Like a crane among a flock of chickens, it stood out so much.
Bella could even see the luxurious interior design of that villa from where she was at this moment.
However, Bella could not help feeling annoyed when she saw the complacent look on Jane’s face.
Sure enough, Jane chose this place to humiliate Chase.
She gave a glance at Chase.
Chase was standing there motionlessly, as if nothing had happened.
Bella’s heart ached. She pulled Chase over and went towards the direction of the largest table.
But at this moment, Rosaline shouted coldly, “Come and sit here, Bella. As for him, he should find another place that suits him.”
Upon hearing this, Bella’s face turned red with anger. “Grandma, this is my husband! Besides, isn’t there an empty seat here?”
Rosaline said coldly, “Who told you that this empty seat belongs to him?”
Bella wanted to rebut, but she was stopped by Chase. “Forget it, I’ll go sit on the table next to you. By the way, my friends will come over too, so I’ll need an empty table”.
Rosaline chuckled and said, “No problem since no one will share the table where you’re sitting today.”
This made Bella’s heart skip a beat.
Chase patted Bella’s head gently and walked to the table in the corner.
Seeing Chase being treated in such a disrespectful way, Bella was completely consumed with guilt Soon, the guests arrived one after another.
All of them were either wealthy businessmen or well-known and influential people in the city, Bella was a little surprised when she saw them coming.
These people were obviously more important and influential than any of them in the Song family.
Besides, they hardly had any connections with the Song Family at all. Why would they come?
As Bella saw all the other tables were all seated with guests except Chase’s, she couldn’t help feeling sorry for him. She felt that Chase was a little pitiful…Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Just as she was about to shift herself to Willliam’s table, a man, dressed in a snow white suit, walked in with a bouquet of flowers.
It was Alfred Gao!
“Bella, happy birthday!”
