Chapter 484:
Startled, Joey and I turned in the direction of the noise.
A waiter rushed over to the scene and asked, “Sir, are you hurt?”
There was no response.
“Shall I bring you another cup of coffee?” the waiter offered.
Still, there was silence.
Without pressing further, the waiter quickly cleaned up the shattered pieces of glass and went back to fetch a new cup.
Bella’s POV:
Joey and I paid no attention to the guest who had broken the cup and continued talking.
“Bella, you are too attractive. Klein is an extremely powerful lawyer! Hey, what sort of tricks did you use? Hurry up and teach me some. Let me bring a man home too!” Joey teased.
“It’s really hard for me to raise Lucky on my own. Now, Klein treats me very well and treats Lucky like his own daughter. He’s saved us several times when we were in danger. What else can I do? I really don’t have the ability to repay him,” I sighed.
Hearing this, Joey stared at me in shock.
“What did you say? You don’t love Klein? You came to him for the way he treats Lucky?” she asked.
I put down the coffee cup in my hand, frowned, and said, “Didn’t you say that love can be cultivated? I want to slowly develop feelings for him. Besides, love can’t be eaten. I don’t want to pursue those useless things. The most important thing now is the peaceful life, and the future of Lucky is also what matters most. Don’t you think so?”
“You must have your reasons for doing this. Bella, I hope you can be happy,” Joey said. Then, Joey took out a bag and said, “This is the clothes I bought for Lucky during the Spring Festival.”
“Thank you, dear,” I said, smiling as I took the bag.
“Don’t be so polite. I’m giving it to the little angel. Although I’m very poor, I can still afford children’s clothes,” Joey laughed.
“Then I’ll thank you on behalf of Lucky,” I said, when suddenly my phone rang. I lowered my head to check, and sure enough, it was a call from Klein. Seeing my expression, Joey teased, “No way. He can’t wait to track you down when you don’t see each other for a while.”
“Screw you,” I rolled my eyes at Joey and answered the phone.
“Klein?”
“Where are you? I’m running errands nearby. I’ll pick you up,” Klein said.
“Oh, Joey and I are drinking coffee in the café downstairs of the company,” I replied.
“How’s it going? I’ll be right there,” Klein said.
“It’s about time,” I replied with a smile.
