Chapter 254 - Sarah Qin

Bella and Mo Li acted as if the other people inside the room doesn’t exist as they continued eating and discussed some specifics about the election. After the two finished their dinner, Mo Li immediately bid his family goodbye and went out of the restaurant with Bella.

"Excuse me, Mo Li. May I talk to your wife?" The unresigned Liu Cheng’er followed them out of the restaurant just so she could talk to Bella in private. Liu Cheng’er was not someone that would act like a white lotus. She considered herself a strong woman who doesn’t need the assistance of other people to reach her goal.

Since Bella already showed her that she had the ability to scheme, Liu Cheng’er wasn’t planning to back down.

"I will wait for you in the car." Mo Li kissed Bella’s forehead before leaving the two women just next to the lamp post.

"Is there something that you need?"

"After what you did? I am surprised that you still had the audacity to asked if I need something."

"Oh." Bella nodded. "Did you expect me to just read your mind then?" she didn’t hide the sarcasm in her voice. Women were mostly like this, ah. They love guessing games. They would then expect people to just guess what is on their mind and get offended if they guessed the wrong thing. Yep! Totally genius.

"The first thing that I heard about you is that you are rather reserved and too modern. You didn’t like that your husband had a mistress when it was only natural for men to try and spread their genes. The culture in this city allows men to have mistresses especially when their wives cannot provide for their needs."

"And?" Bella lifted an eyebrow. "What does it had to do with me?"

"Well... I guess I was wrong? I always thought that you were someone who just values love and marriage. Someone principled. Turns out you are as scheming as everyone else in this city." Liu Cheng’er sneered. "My initial analysis of your past was wrong. You are a different person compared to the reports that I received and it seems that you are still hiding your true self to deceive Mo Li."

"..."

"I know you are a lying b*tch. You wanted to use Mo Li to hurt your father and your ex-husband, right? You wanted to make them beg for your mercy? I can read you like the back of my palm Bella. There is no need to pretend that you are that reserved Bella that everyone knew. At least, not in front of me."

"And?" What the hell was her point? This woman was just thinking too much about her actions, alright. Did this woman think, Bella was some genius schemer? Alright, may she was. However, what she did earlier was not even considered scheming. In fact, what she did earlier was considered childsplay. If Liu Cheng’er could read minds, she would surely be mortified if she knew all the plans and possibilities that Bella’s brain had come up with.

"I want you to know that I am not backing out."

"..." So, after all this nonsense, Liu Cheng’er only wanted to tell her that she would ruin her marriage. "Basically, you wanted to tell me that you are a homewrecker?"

"You— "

"Isn’t it?" Bella tilted her head. "After all these talks about scheming, you only wanted to let me know that you would ruin my relationship with my husband?"

"I didn’t say that!"

"Then how are you planning to make a married man yours?"

"That— " Liu Cheng’er stilled. Why was this Bella so good with words? The reports say that she was timid and soft-spoken! Was this considered timid?

"Aish... I think this conversation is pointless. Unless you are planning to do something like pretend that I pushed you or something?" Classic concubine movements. Bella eyed the woman’s heels. Yep, a slow push would make the woman fell on the concrete floor. "Ah, let me guess... you have someone waiting somewhere to witness this scene? Was that why you chose to call us out when he reached the lamp post and not in front of the restaurant where there are still many people?" Bella squinted at the woman’s pale expression. Then she clicked her tongue. "My recording’s still on." Of course, that was a lie. Her recorder’s battery had long died.

"You— What are you talking about?"

"Miss Liu Cheng’er..." Bella immediately said. "I’m sorry, I have to say your name like that. I just want to do that for my recordings." She beamed. "I already informed you of the presence of my recording so... this is not against the law anymore."

"You— " Liu Cheng’er’s eyes turned so wide. She felt her throat turned dry from being too angry. How could Bella walk around with recorders! Liu Cheng’er never doubted the fact that Bella was indeed walking around with a recorder simply because she had heard about the details of that scandal in the restaurant a few hours ago.

Bella even had a blue tooth speaker with her!

"Now, you can pretend that I pushed you even if I didn’t. Then I would sue you for trying to embarrass my name. After all, am I still Mrs. Mo the current wife of your ex-fiance. I think the media would love such a piece of juicy news, no?" Bella challenged. This family loved scheming so much! Why not announced it to the whole world?

Now that Bella knew that Mo Li only chose to run because he wanted to marry her, she wasn’t so pressured anymore to make Mo Li win. After all, the person that should win the election should be the male lead— and that was not Mo Li.

Liu Cheng’er glared at Bella before she stomped off and hastily left the parking lot. She realized that saying something more would only dig her hole deeper! It was like shooting her own foot!

"Bye, Miss Liu Cheng’er! I hope to see you again! Send my regards to the whole Mo Family!" Bella’s voice can be heard echoing on the parking lot. Chuckling, Bella turned towards the car that was already waiting for her. Then she paused. She looked at the woman standing a few steps away from her. This... Isn’t this...

"Elder Sister?"

Bella immediately hid her surprise when she heard the female lead call her Elder Sister. Of course, she was still the half-sister of the lead. She immediately faked a smile. "Sarah." Sarah Qin should be .... All of Bella’s thoughts halted when she saw the man standing next to Sarah.

Isn’t this the Villain? Daniel Rogers? Sarah’s current Fiance?

Wait according to the plot, Sarah went home after a huge fight with Daniel. She then canceled the whole engagement. So, why was she with this foreigner now?

"I—" Tears welled in Sarah’s eyes as her lips trembled. Soon, two sparkling tears ran down her cheeks as she stared at her elder sister. Seeing the Female Lead cry, Bella panicked. What was she supposed to do? Should she hug her? Consoled the Female lead? "Sister... I..."

Bella blinked. Should she cry too? This... This was a really awkward situation! Unable to make a decision, Bella just stood there like a frozen statue. First, the original Bella and even Lily weren’t very good at emotions.

"Honey? What was taking you— " Mo Li’s voice immediately made Bella sighed inwardly. This man was truly a god’s gift! "Hey, isn’t that..."

"Hmmm." Bella nodded.

"Hey, would you mind having some coffee with us?" It was Daniel that asked. He looked at Bella before nodding at Mo Li as If they were acquaintances. "Just... so Sarah would calm down?" he asked as he slowly patted Sarah’s back.

Not long after, the four of them found a small cafe just a few meters away from the restaurant. It was something that bikers frequented so it wasn’t surprising that there were a lot of men at the other tables. The loud conversations and laughter immediately made the atmosphere between the four more awkward.

"I heard that you just arrived?" Bella was the first one who broke the awkward silence.

"Just a few weeks back." Sarah gave her a sad smile before she looked at Daniel. Silently telling him that she needed some alone time with her sister. Seeing this, both Mo Li and Daniel decided to order some alcoholic drinks while the females enjoy their coffee. "I heard that you already married— your first love?"

Bella chuckled at this, it immediately made the atmosphere lighter. "I guess first love never dies?" Alright, maybe that was an awkward joke. Please understand that Bella didn’t want to offend the female lead right now. Moreover, this woman was truly kind. She was just a victim of the greed and machinations of the Qin Family.

Just like Bella, Sarah also had her own share of suffering. However, unlike her, Sarah never left the Qin family. Of course, she doesn’t dare to do that. After all, she was destined to be saved by the male lead.

Sarah gave her a sincere smile. "I am happy that you finally found someone that loves you."

Bella faked another smile. Emotional conversations like this were totally not her forty. "How about you? I have heard that Mr. Rogers and you were already engaged since you graduated from college? When are you planning to marry each other?"
