For Oliver Hughes’ video call, Bella Woods mercilessly rejected it.

She answered Ashton Marshall’s video.
In the video, Ashton Marshall was leaning back in his office chair, wearing rimless glasses on the bridge of his nose. He appeared scholarly and ascetic, a stark contrast to the image he usually had in front of Bella Woods.
Ashton Marshall stared at the video for a while and finally commented, “Indeed, you look gorgeous.”
“You sent the video… just to say this?”
Her voice dropped a lot by the end; Bella Woods was a bit embarrassed.
“Yeah, the photos on your social media looked good, but you look even better on video,” Ashton Marshall complimented directly, “Makes me want to come over, pack you up, and take you home to keep you hidden.”
His gaze was deep, obscure, and carried a certain invitation charged with emotion.
Bella Woods had seen such a gaze many times, and in that moment, she understood instantly, her face turning beet red.
“Um, we have to go have fun now, goodbye.”
She said quickly and hung up the call immediately.
Her heart pounded furiously because of Ashton Marshall’s gaze.
“Here, take a sip of water, it won’t make you so shy.”
Calvin Marshall suddenly handed her a glass of water.
Without thinking, Bella Woods took it and drank more than half before realizing something.
Bella Woods hurriedly explained, “It’s not, I…”
“I’m not a little girl who hasn’t been through anything, hahaha, no need to hide.” Calvin Marshall placed a hand on Bella Woods’ shoulder, poking her: “But, I am indeed curious about something?”
“What?” Bella Woods blurted out.
“Is my third brother very wild…”
Pfft!
Bella Woods sprayed the water she had just drunk all over.
“Sorry, sorry.”
She quickly placed the glass aside and grabbed a tissue to clean the mirror in front of her and the water stains on Calvin Marshall’s arm.
“It’s fine, just answer my question.” Calvin Marshall didn’t mind at all, being very nonchalant.
She raised her eyebrows at Bella Woods: “I’m really curious about it.”
Bella Woods’ face was burning up: “No, no…”
“Are you saying my third brother can’t do it?” Calvin Marshall widened her eyes: “My third brother looks so…”
“No, no, he can, he’s very wild… No, that’s not what I mean…”
Bella Woods covered her face, muttering, “What am I even saying!”
What a mess.
And while Bella Woods was in agony, for Calvin Marshall, it was an entertaining scene.
She quickly picked up her phone to take a picture.
“Don’t you…”
“Do you want me not to send it to my third brother?” Calvin Marshall raised her eyebrows.
“Are you serious, Sixth Marshall, you’re going to send it to your third brother?” Bella Woods almost bristled.
Seeing her reaction, Calvin Marshall found it extremely amusing: “Little Bella, you look so gentle and docile; turns out you can bristle about such topics?”
Now that’s interesting.
Calvin Marshall retreated step by step with her phone.
“Don’t send it to your third brother.” Bella Woods approached Calvin Marshall, trying to get her phone to delete the photo.
Calvin Marshall held her phone high: “No way. I’m sure my third brother will definitely like and be interested in these kinds of photos.”
“Sixty!”
Unable to snatch the phone, Bella Woods stomped her foot in urgency: “Don’t…”
“Aww, don’t cry.” Calvin Marshall initially wanted to tease Bella Woods, but seeing her eyes reddening, she stopped at once: “I was just joking with you.”
Bella Woods lowered her head, wiping the tears at the corners of her eyes: “I was just teasing you too.”
Calvin Marshall widened her eyes: “Oh dear, Little Bella, you’re acting with me now!”
“Didn’t you know? I’m also a sly fox who seems gentle and weak.” Bella Woods laughed.
“You’re not a sly fox; you appear gentle, but you have a rich inner world.”
“I’ve realized that Lady Sixth of the Marshall Family judges based on people.” Bella Woods couldn’t help but laugh.
With Ethan Marshall, whom she disliked, she said he was vicious.
With Bella Woods, whom she liked, she said she had a rich inner world.
Calvin Marshall was very proud of this, as if it was a matter of course: “You’ll find out later that being friends with me is rewarding because I judge people, not actions.”
Bella Woods laughed along, squeezing Calvin Marshall’s face.
At this moment, Bella Woods sympathized with Ashton Marshall.
Ashton Marshall often liked to pinch, squeeze, and knead her face, saying it felt soft and nice.
And now she found out that was indeed the case.
Calvin Marshall was at her wit’s end from being squeezed: “Little Bella, don’t you want to let go of my face and check your phone? It’s been ringing nonstop, don’t know who’s bombarding you.”
Bella Woods was just as puzzled, went over to pick up her phone, and found that besides a message from Ashton Marshall saying ‘You’re shy,’ the rest were all from Oliver Hughes.
Oliver Hughes: Why did you hang up on my call?
Oliver Hughes: Bella Woods, you’ll regret what you’re doing now.
Oliver Hughes: Bella Woods, what is going on with you today, posting on social media so flamboyantly?
…
The rest were all questioning Bella Woods about today’s photos on social media, including her not replying to messages.
Bella Woods thought for a moment and still replied to Oliver Hughes with: Want him to see it.
As soon as this message was sent, Oliver Hughes blew up.
Oliver Hughes: That old man again?
Oliver Hughes: Why would my little uncle know that old man? What did you tell my little uncle to make him so partial to you?
Oliver Hughes: Bella Woods, answer the video call!
Bella Woods didn’t respond to Oliver Hughes, instead setting all his messages to ‘Do Not Disturb.’
“Aren’t we going out for fun, is it time to leave?”
Bella Woods glanced at the completely dark sky outside.
“Almost, let’s go.”
Calvin Marshall refrained from asking about Oliver Hughes and led Bella Woods to Paradise World.
Paradise World was bustling tonight because a foreign artist was performing a show, and although it had controlled fan entry in advance, quite a number of fans had still shown up.
When Calvin Marshall and Bella Woods arrived, Paradise World was already filled with lively chatter.
“Look, that’s a Korean artist I’ve been obsessed with lately.” Calvin Marshall pointed to an artist performing drums on stage to Bella Woods.
The person wore a black shirt with a wide-open collar and a metal necklace. The style was very cool, and with his head slightly tilted up while drumming, he revealed a chiseled jawline.
“Indeed very handsome,” Bella Woods commented.
“Later, he’s coming over to drink with us, have fun.”
“Drink with us?”
When Bella Woods asked this, Calvin Marshall already led her to a booth.
And seeing Bella Woods surprised, Calvin Marshall chuckled: “After all, I’m the sugar mommy… Oh, it’s my third brother’s money sponsoring this.”
Calvin Marshall said this while pouring Bella Woods a drink.
After taking two sips, Ashton Marshall’s call came in.
Bella Woods answered: “Drink less, little one.”
Bella Woods paused: “Are you here?”
She looked around, not seeing Ashton Marshall, only seeing Oliver Hughes walking over with a bottle of liquor.
