What kind of wife would someone with this kind of loneliness marry?

"Hung up." She had lost the desire to even speak.

Forget it, although the second young master of the White Family is a sickly person, he should be mentally competent.

"Hey, don’t, don’t, don’t hang up, how can you just hang up like that? Did you hear what I said? Don’t let her get engaged."

"I’ve tried to persuade her, it’s useless. She said it’s a family-arranged engagement, she can’t resist it."

With one sentence, Joanna Ramsey was described as a poor little thing being forced into marriage.

This piece of news made Victor Bennett restless.

"Is Richard Shaw that bastard going to sell his sister?"

"Ah, forget it, I need to go see if your brother is attracting any admirers."

"My brother is here too?" Victor Bennett was taken aback.

"Yes, today is Old White’s birthday feast. He wants to use the occasion to announce this news. Although the second young master won’t be coming, the White Family still values Joanna a lot. Speaking of which, this Kyoto Grand Hotel is truly luxurious."

"What! It’s not an engagement party? But what damn birthday feast is it? This White Family is really too much!!!"

After saying that, the call was abruptly hung up.

Looking at the phone, Bella Green was helpless, not sure whether to laugh or cry.

She didn’t even know if what she was doing was right or wrong.

But thinking of Joanna Ramsey’s expression just now, it made her heart ache.

...

Returning to the banquet hall, Bella Green almost instantly spotted Mason Bennett’s figure.

However, before she could smile, her expression fell.

One of the nonsensical things she had just joked about with Victor Bennett actually happened.

Her dear Mason was indeed attracting admirers.

And this admirer was a big nuisance, buzzing annoyingly.

In the distance, a middle-aged man stood opposite Mason, while Joanne Jordan was sweetly saying something to Victor.

Bella Green bit her lip hard, then walked over.

Actually, as soon as she entered the banquet hall, Victor Bennett noticed her.

As for whatever Joanne was saying, he didn’t hear a single word.

The man opposite was Nathan Bennett, the manager of the Kyoto branch, who was coincidentally reporting on work.

Joanne, knowing this manager, just happened to say hello.

Bella Green had already walked quite close to the three, yet Mason Bennett only glanced at her without any intention of greeting.

Mason’s thoughts were simple; he didn’t want to affect her.

However, Bella Green felt he was ignoring her.

As her steps faltered, her face was gloomy to the extreme, but she didn’t continue walking over.

Her gaze was unrestrained, and Joanne naturally noticed her.

Suspicion flashed in her eyes, and then she looked at Mason Bennett beside her, her lips curling faintly. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

Missing something, blocking half of Mason Bennett’s body.

Then, the woman suddenly leaned, directly onto Mason Bennett.

In that instant, she straightened, so fast that Mason Bennett didn’t have the chance to push her away.

"I’m really sorry, Mr. Bennett, I just lost my balance," Joanne said with a smile, not the least embarrassed.

From Bella Green’s angle, she saw Joanne throw herself right into Mason Bennett’s arms.

And Mason Bennett... didn’t push her away!!

Instantly, Bella Green’s smile twisted.

Not only did he ignore her, he was holding another woman!

Luckily she followed along, otherwise she’d never know how Mason Bennett was taken advantage of out here.
