Chapter 812 Calm
Chapter 812 Calm
At this moment, Bella approached quietly.
She walked on the lawn as softly as if she were a ghost.
It wasn't until she got closer that Queeny noticed her.
But Queeny didn't look away from the book but glanced at her with the corner of her eye.
Bella lifted her chin smugly.
"Queeny, there's some good news for you. Do you wanna know?"
Queeny ignored her.
Bella just smiled with a smug look on her delicate face.
"I'm getting married to Felix."
Queeny clutched the book slightly.
She immediately recalled him saying last night, "I'll send her away in a few days. She will never show
up again..."
She sneered and continued reading.
Bella was surprised. She had thought Queeny would be very sad and angry when she heard the news!
She recalled something and said with a cold look.
"Queeny, I'll be Mrs. Bissel and you're just a prisoner. You'd better stay away from my husband! Don't
try to separate us or else..."
"Or else what?"
Queeny sounded calm but majestic.
Bella froze.
She gritted her teeth and said coldly, "I'll have you killed!"
Queeny stopped turning the pages of her book.
She looked at Bella.
She wasn't a stunning beauty, but she had her unique grace and elegance.
She looked at Bella coldly and sneered, "Nice try."
She placed the book softly in her lap like a quiet student, but Bella saw the murderous look in her eyes.
She said in a low voice, "How exactly would you do that?"
"You!"
Bella was angry.
But there was nothing she could do.
She knew that she was no match for Queeny in terms of either force or intelligence.
Queeny made a name for herself many years ago but Bella was just a daughter born in a rich family
back then. She couldn't beat Queeny in any way.
Fortunately, she had a skill that Queeny didn't have.
She was better at pleasing men than Queeny.
In her opinion, women like Queeny didn't care about men or please them because they were too
capable.
But she didn't understand that no matter what position men were in, their innate character remained the
same.
They needed women to submit to them. They enjoyed women's admiration, adoration, and fondness
for them.
So how could Queeny be liked by men?
With this in mind, Bella felt relieved. She raised her head and smiled smugly.
"I admit that I really can't do anything to you, but others can."
Suddenly, a flicker of malice appeared in her eyes. She approached, leaned forward, and whispered,
"Queeny, who do you think Felix would trust if we were at odds, me or you?"
Queeny looked at her coldly and asked, "What do you want?"
Bella chuckled, "Nothing. I just want to know which of us is more important to him."
Suddenly, she gripped the armrest of Queeny's wheelchair.
Queeny hardly had time to think when Bella screamed.
"Ouch, Queeny, what are you doing?"
Then she fell backward.
Queeny was stunned.
Bella fell to the ground with a thud. It must be painful.
Queeny frowned and before she could say anything, she heard an angry shout.
"What’s going on?"
She looked up and saw Felix striding over in the sunlight.
Queeny froze and tried to explain, "I..."
"Felix, don't blame Miss Horton."
Bella got up right away and put her hand to her bruised elbow, "I fell by accident."
Her eyes turned red.
Queeny didn't say anything.
Bella was right. She did fall by accident.
It had nothing to do with her! Why should she explain?
With this in mind, Queeny was confident and said nothing.
However, Felix gave her a cold look.
There was reproach and anger in his eyes, but under her calm gaze, he just said to Donald behind him,
"Go get her wounds treated."
"Yes, sir."
Donald pretended not to have noticed that the atmosphere was weird and left with Bella.
Before leaving, Bella gave Felix and Queeny a very worried look.
She whispered as she brushed past Felix, "Felix, it's really not Miss Horton's fault. I just... fell. Don't
think too much."
Felix didn't say anything and Bella left sadly.
After she left, Felix turned to look at Queeny.
It had been a few hours since they last met. Queeny was calm but a little puzzled.
She remembered that he went to see her last night but she was so angry that she didn't tell him what
she wanted to tell him.
But now she thought she was being naive. The first priority was to catch Sarah's murderer!
So once she had a clue, she had to tell him and they could figure it out together. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
With this in mind, she said, "Felix, I..."
"Don't do that again."
Felix interrupted her before she could finish her sentence.
He just looked down at her. She felt he believed her, but she had a bad feeling.
She looked at him in confusion and asked, "Do what?"
Felix frowned.
It seemed that he was disappointed in her, but he seemed to think... it was reasonable.
