Chapter 3 Make a Fuss

What was the point of feeling embarrassed since they had already slept with each other?

Luke had slept with many women, including when he was with Mia. But those women were all just friends with benefits. Mia was the only one he wanted to marry and loved from the bottom of his heart.

In his mind, bodies and souls could be totally separated.

One's body was just the combination of various desires, while one's soul was the purest being.

Luke had given his purest being to Mia. Naturally, he loved her the most.

Luke's words were inserted into Bella's body like cold arrows, and her facial expression instantly grew gloomy.

Nothing happened...

"Luke, how could you do this to me?"

Bella grabbed a towel and threw it at Luke. She was going to marry the man and loved him wholeheartedly. How could he say such irresponsible words to her?

"Luke, I have given you the most treasured thing that I own. How could you... Do you have any conscience at all?"

Bella cried, feeling heartbroken. However, witnessing her sadness did not make Luke feel anything. Even worse, the look in his eyes was filled with disgust.

"Save your tears and stop pretending to be innocent. I know that you're good at acting. It's useless to put on an act before me. That's enough!"

After putting on his jacket and fixing his hair, Luke walked outwards.

He had to get out of this suffocating room and get rid of the crazy woman to feel better.

No one's tears could have any effect on Luke except Mia's.

"Luke, stop right there!"

Bella caught up with him and tugged at Luke's sleeve. "We'll soon get married and become the closest person to each other in the world. You can't do this to me!"

"Can't do that?" Luke raised his brows and cast a sidelong glance at Bella. Seeing that tears covered the woman's face, Luke lifted his hand to wipe them off Bella's cheeks gently. "All right. Don't cry or worry that I won't marry you. You are a nice sexual partner indeed."

"What a sugar-coated bullet," thought Bella to herself.

She fell from heaven to hell in less than a minute and was lifted from hell to heaven again.

What a badass Luke was.

Bella bit her bottom lip hard and lowered her eyes to conceal the gloom and coldness inside.

"Mia, it's all your fault. It's all your fault. I won't let you get away with it! I am obviously better than you. What makes you qualified to obtain Luke's heart?" Bella thought to herself.

On the other hand, Bella decided it was good enough that she at least got something to attract Luke.

As for the others, she could take her time.

She believed that her beauty would eventually conquer luke's heart after a rather long period.

At the thought of this, Bella curled up her lips into a smug smile.

Just then, Luke impatiently moved Bella's hand off his arm. "Get away from me. Don't follow me!"

Soon after Luke left, Nova Jones walked up to Bella.

Seeing Bella standing outside the room in her bathrobe, she yawned and asked with displeasure, "What's going on? What were you quarreling about early in the morning?"

"It's fine. Luke and I had sex last night, and he seemed to be somewhat irritated."

Bella felt shy and slightly disappointed.

At Bella's words, Nova's eyes lit up.

"You and Luke had sex?"

Nova fixed her eyes upon Bella's stomach, and the look in her eyes grew hot. The elderly woman knew that her son had many women outside, but because of Mia, Luke had never got a woman pregnant.

However, Nova desperately needed a grandson to secure her son's inheritance right in the Powell Family.

"Bella, hurry to clean yourself up. Mom will take you to shop and buy whatever you fancy. Give birth to a kid soon. I am getting old and want nothing else but a grandson."

Nova patted the back of Bella's hand affectionately. Bella nodded with a smile, but the look in her eyes was full of mockery.

Just a grandchild?

Bella did not buy Nova's words at all.

She knew that Nova wanted to use a grandkid to occupy more assets in the Powell Family.

Although Nova's words sounded selfless, Bella knew that she used to be a home-wrecker.

Seeing that Nova was gone, Bella returned to her room.

Mia came back from the cemetery and looked at the messy house, full of frustration.

It was empty, and she was alone. Whenever she went out, she was accosted and jeered by the neighbors.

Actually, she did not care about that.

She did not care how the others see her. Those people were the owners of their mouths. Of course, Mia could do nothing to button their lips.

The red, gold-trimmed invitation lying on the ground stung Mia's eyes.

At the thought of Nova's proud, haughty attitude, Mia picked up the invitation from the ground with anger rolling in her eyes.

That hateful woman wanted Mia to attend Luke's wedding.

Fine!

She would be at the wedding. Besides, she was going to make a scene there.

Was not Luke's mother obsessed with her own reputation?

Then Bella would disgrace her utterly!

Bella's mother died. She had nothing else to worry about.

She would avenge herself sooner or later.

Holding the wedding invitation, Mia gritted her teeth tightly with her heart full of resolution.
