Bella pointed at a random chair and said, “You can sit there.”
Qiao Mei sat on the chair obediently which Bella had pointed out and waited patiently for her to speak. Bella smiled and sat on the table before asking, “What’s your name?”
“My name is Pu Nan. I heard them calling you Bella. Can I address you as Sister Bella?” Qiao Mei asked cautiously.
“Of course you can. You can call me whatever you want. You don’t have to be so careful around me. 1 don’t hurt girls. I’m only hard on those disgusting men,” Bella said in a gentle tone.
Qiao Mei looked at Bella, feeling a little hesitant to speak up, but she really wanted to know why Bella was so nice to her. The Bella in front of her was completely different from the Bella whom other people described.
“You… why are you…” Qiao Mei struggled for a long time but she did not pose her question in the end. She did not know if it was appropriate to ask such a question.
Bella chuckled and said, “l guess you want to ask me why I’m so nice to you. It’s because I like you very much. For some reason, 1 had a very familiar feeling the moment we met. Make a guess on how old I am.”
“About… 28 years old?” Qiao Mei guessed.
Bella shook her head and held up four fingers. “I’m already 40 years old!”
“What! 40 years old! That’s impossible. You look so young and beautiful, how can you be 40 years old?” Qiao Mei said as she looked at Bella in shock.
“Yes, many people don’t believe that I’m 40 years old. Jack and I are childhood sweethearts. We grew up together. Jack is already 43 years old. Isn’t it normal for me to be 40 years old?” Bella said flatly.
When Qiao Mei first heard Jacks name and everyone’s comments about him, she had guessed that he was in his early 30s. She was surprised to find out that Jack and Bella were much older than expected.
“Here I am thinking that Jack is a promising young man,” Qiao Mei said.
“Him? Promising young man? I think he will cry if he hears that!” Bella said mockingly.
“Then Sister Bella… are you and Brother Jack lovers?” Qiao Mei asked curiously.
Actually, this was also something that everyone was very curious about. Jack had never married and always had a good reputation while Bella had never found a lifelong partner. The two of them lived together for a long time and many people felt that they were truly a match made in heaven.
Bella did not know how Jack felt, but she only saw him as her pillar of strength.
“Little girl, you’re still too young to understand a lot of things. A relationship between a man and a woman can be a platonic one. Jack and I are more like…
family members. A family member who is irreplaceable,” Bella lamented.
Qiao Mei nodded, only vaguely understanding what Bella meant. She was indeed not old enough to have experienced anything like this. In her other life, she only lived until 26 years old and did not even have many friends. She was also estranged from her relatives. It was only in this life that she had a taste of love, friendship and kinship.
“l have brought you here so that you can lie low for a bit. Jack will definitely get angry about what happened just now. A petty person like him will definitely make everyone present fork out money for it. If all your hard-earned money goes into Jack’s coffers, won’t you have worked hard for nothing tonight?” Bella said smilingly.
“Sister Bella, why are you so protective of me? We have only just met. Even if you like me, you don’t have to be so nice to me…” Qiao Mei whispered.
“Because… I hope that if I have a daughter in the future, she will be like you. Beautiful, generous, willful, smart and a little cute,” Bella said wistfully.
“l believe that you will definitely have such a daughter!” Qiao Mei said firmly.
Bella smiled resignedly and did not say anything. She was unable to have her own children. When Jack first set up this casino, it was a very tough time. Every night, people from the other casinos came to cause trouble. She and Jack were caught in dangerous situations all the time. One time, there was an accident and her uterus had to be removed. From then on, she became even more ruthless and decisive because there was nothing to hold her back anymore.
In the past, she used to fantasize about how nice it would be if she had a daughter. If she ever had a daughter, she would retire and find a simple job. If she had a son, she would let him take over her position and be known as Bella’s successor.
However, these were just dreams now..
