Bella Green’s expression darkened as she was eating, and she threw down her chopsticks with a thud, looking at Anna Green without any regard for her feelings. "How do you know whether or not he knew from the start that I’m a girl? And, am I that familiar with you? I don’t have the habit of chatting heart-to-heart with some big sister." Bella Green was in a pretty good mood initially, and even bumping into Anna Green and her gang wasn’t enough to affect her. However, when it came to Mason Bennett, Bella Green was like a small beast revealing its sharp claws. She couldn’t have imagined that coming to the Green family would end up with Mason running into these two scumbags. "Bella, how can you say that? I’m just concerned about you." Anna Green immediately put on a hurt expression when she heard those words, looking pitiful as she grabbed Vivian Thornecroft’s arm, on the verge of tears. "Vivian, did I say something wrong that upset my sister? I didn’t mean it, you know I..." Vivian Thornecroft turned his head towards the anxiously explaining woman and smiled gently to comfort her. "Cecilia’s just joking with you, don’t take it seriously." With those words, Anna Green’s fake crying almost turned real, her eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Vivian Thornecroft. What did he just call her... Not only Anna Green found it hard to accept, but Mason Bennett’s face also turned completely dark, the low atmosphere around him almost threatening to tear the roof off. Bella Green didn’t expect Vivian Thornecroft to suddenly pull a stunt like that and, in her daze, quickly turned to look at Mason. Sure enough, with that ready-to-destroy-the-world look, she feared he might impulsively flip the table. Bella Green hurriedly grabbed a piece of braised pork with her chopsticks and brought it to Mason’s mouth. "Brother, have some meat, ah~" Almost instantly, Mason Bennett’s attention was drawn back by the girl’s sweet and soft voice. Looking at Bella Green with her beaming smile, and that word "brother" successfully warmed up the man’s mood by a few degrees. He opened his mouth and ate the piece of meat Bella had picked up. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝙣𝙚𝙩 Watching Bella’s almost pandering posture, Vivian Thornecroft’s face grew colder and more sullen. However, in the next second, Bella suddenly put down her chopsticks and turned to look at him with a grin. "I say, Mr. Thornecroft, your habit of hasty familiarity matches well with Anna. That disgusting call, even if you don’t care about Anna, I’m afraid my brother Mason might not be pleased?" Hearing the girl’s words, Mason Bennett’s gloomy face completely cleared up, and an unconscious, joyful curve appeared at the corner of his mouth. Then, he looked at Vivian Thornecroft, and although he said nothing, Vivian could still see the gloating in his eyes. Vivian responded with a cold smile, expressing two words with his gaze. That statement wasn’t just aimed at Vivian Thornecroft; it dragged Anna into it as well. Especially hearing "even if you don’t care about Anna," it almost made her clench her teeth in anger. "Bella, you’re going too far. How could you say that? Vivian was just trying to spare you embarrassment due to past ties, to call you that. You’re being too self-indulgent, aren’t you?" Listening to Anna Green, Bella Green raised her eyebrows slightly, digging her ear in an unflattering demeanor. "Didn’t I just say you get too familiar too quickly, and now you shamelessly try to bond? What, thinking to flirt with my brother? Dream on!" Bella said this as she turned and clutched Mason Bennett’s arm, showing off with an attitude that was insurmountable by them. Mason Bennett looked at the girl’s posture and couldn’t help but chuckle. This little thing is really becoming more and more endearing. "Don’t worry, I’ll only flirt with you." The man said, smiling.
