Daniel Green’s cheeks flushed with excitement at those words; being appreciated by someone like that was definitely something to be proud of and boast about. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
The Green Family villa was filled with an atmosphere of joy.
"In a couple of days when the contract is signed, Mr. Jiang will personally come over. At that time, you go with your father." Samuel Gren patted the young man’s shoulder with satisfaction. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Daniel Green nodded vigorously upon hearing this, clearly very excited as well.
Suddenly, he noticed Francesca Willis’s red and swollen face, and his smile paused.
"Dad, look, since Mr. Jiang is signing with the Green Family because of me, can I ask you for a favor?"
Samuel Gren was delighted at this moment and would not refuse anything Daniel Green asked for. "Silly child, there’s no need for favors; just tell Dad what you want."
"I don’t want anything, just, Dad, can you stop being mad at Mom?"
Their family had always been very happy; from his memory, his parents seldom argued, let alone fought. Today’s incident made him very uncomfortable.
"And this matter can’t be entirely blamed on Mom. We considered being nice to Bella Green, but her actions were truly disappointing." Daniel Green said with a face full of frustration and annoyance.
Samuel Gren was taken aback, frowning, asking, "What does this mean?"
Speaking of this, Daniel Green became even angrier. "We sincerely wanted to treat her well, to consider her as family, but what about her? She’s been bullying Anna countless times behind her back. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have known that Anna suffered so much injustice."
Anna Green’s eyes lit up upon hearing this, joy filled her heart, yet she maintained a troubled appearance, tugging at Daniel Green’s hand.
"Daniel, don’t say that; Bella didn’t do it on purpose."
Upon hearing this, Samuel Gren’s expression turned cold immediately. "What’s this all about?"
"Sis, I don’t want to speak ill of her behind her back, but I also don’t want you to be bullied by her again." Daniel Green said with a face filled with heartache, then grabbed her hand, looking at Samuel Gren.
"Today at the door, just because a few words upset her, she pushed Anna down. Look, her hands and legs are all scraped." As he spoke of this, Daniel Green’s anger surged again.
Not only that, but Bella even cursed at him...
Samuel Gren was shocked to see Anna Green’s bandaged hand; he hadn’t noticed her injury before.
"This was done by Bella?" he asked in disbelief.
Though Bella Green was somewhat unruly and often did embarrassing things, in his heart, Bella wasn’t a bad child.
Anna Green’s eyes welled up, a hint of mist rising, yet she struggled to withdraw her hand, raising a gentle smile. "No, Bella didn’t do it on purpose; it’s also because I wasn’t standing steadily."
The implication of defending and making excuses for Bella Green made Samuel Gren even angrier.
Today he had been furious with Bella Green and even hit Francesca Willis, but he hadn’t expected that in his unknown moments, Bella was so out of control?
While angry, he felt even more guilty towards Anna Green. He hadn’t expected that after bringing Bella back, she would endure so much grievance.
"Oh, Anna, I wronged you." After saying this, he looked at Francesca Willis again, and though he didn’t say anything, his eyes were full of remorse.
"Husband, I didn’t mean to antagonize Bella like that, it’s just..." Francesca Willis looked troubled.
Then she continued sincerely, "I see Bella is not young anymore; it’s better to settle a marriage for her early. If her temper spreads, it won’t just be bad for the Green Family’s reputation; finding her a husband later might become troublesome."
