Watching the young boy puff out his cheeks and glare at him, Mason Bennett inexplicably felt great.
A faint curve lifted the corners of his lips, coaxing, "Be good, call me brother."
Bella Green: "..." Gabriel Sinclair!!
Seeing him silent for a long time, Mason’s lifted smile suddenly fell, his expression turning blank as he raised his hand to pinch the boy’s cheek, using some force.
This action carried a hint of threat.
Bella pursed her lips, glaring at him with anger she dared not express.
This jerk, he was sure she wouldn’t be happy with his probing into the ’allergy’ matter.
"Brother." Bella finally mumbled, sounding quite aggrieved.
That soft, aggrieved voice sounded even more delightful than last time.
Mason’s lips curled up again, a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes; he was clearly very pleased with her calling him brother.
After that, he stopped talking and continued to wipe the little red spots off the girl’s face.
Bella ducked her small head slightly, a bit aggrieved, saying, "You’ll rub it off, I’ll have to draw it again later."
Otherwise, when the Green Family comes, sees her face, it’ll become a big deal...
She hadn’t eaten the almond puff earlier, she wasn’t dumb enough to harm herself to show the Green Family.
The ruse of ’self-harm’ could work, but the main thing was not to really suffer!
Plus, this way, Francesca wouldn’t come looking for her again anytime soon, forcing her to meet the elderly Mrs. Bennett.
Mason’s actions paused for a moment, then he continued his work, eyes flashing a hint of disdain.
Bella: "..." Damn Gabriel Sinclair!!
Soon, the little red dots on Bella’s face were wiped clean, then she rolled away from the man’s body and jumped into bed.
"Relax, no one from the Green Family will come today," Mason assured confidently.
Bella huffed, saying nothing.
See, even Mason could tell, she had no status in the Green Family...
"If the red spots disappear overnight, it doesn’t matter; tomorrow, wait for them to invite you back."
Upon hearing this, Bella looked at Mason as if he were an idiot.
You must be drunk; they wish I’d never go back, invite? More like kicking me out, huh?
Yet being so brash resulted in the back of her head receiving a not too heavy smack from the man.
Bella clutched her head, looking at him aggrieved and furious.
"I have things to do, I won’t stay with you."
Hurry up and go, hurry up and go!!
After Mason left, Bella lay on the bed, looking frustrated, so spineless, just too spineless!!
In the evening, Samuel Green returned home early, entering with a wide, uncontainable smile, happier than finding money.
Seeing his expression with her swollen red face, Francesca immediately went over with a cheerful grin to take his coat.
"Honey, is there some great news again, why so happy?"
Afraid Samuel was still angry over the afternoon’s incident, Francesca wore a slightly flattering and cheerful expression.
Looking at her, Samuel indeed didn’t remain angry about the matter and instead laughed heartily.
"Good news, extremely good news, our family is about to change its luck."
Hearing this, Francesca’s eyes lit up, she couldn’t care about anything else, and quickly asked, "What’s going on, tell me quickly."
Samuel looked at her and deliberately teased, not saying anything, directly heading to the living room to sit on the sofa.
"Get little Easy and Anna down; I need to tell you all some good news."
Francesca saw him so glad, it was clear there was some splendid news, so she happily went upstairs to personally call them.
