Dump My Ex, Dive into Love with His Billionaire Uncle-Chapter 190: Remind Him to Face His Own Feelings
Chapter 190: Chapter 190: Remind Him to Face His Own Feelings
On the other end of the phone, Cyan Marshall sensed the suppression and determination in Bella Woods’ words.
She paused for a moment, then just sighed, "Then take care of yourself, and contact me immediately if anything happens."
"Okay, Aunt Cyan." Bella Woods answered obediently on the phone.
After ending the call, Cyan Marshall looked quite grave.
Especially when she saw Oliver Hughes playing games on the sofa, her expression grew even more serious: "Bella said she can handle it and you don’t need to go over."
Oliver Hughes paused for two seconds in his game, then chuckled lightly, "What does she know? The Woods Family has contacted the Thompson Family to send their daughter to Elder Thompson tonight. She claims she can handle it, but what can she really handle?"
"Since you already know, why don’t you tell her yourself?" Cyan Marshall looked at Oliver Hughes, a bit confused.
She thought about it and walked over to the sofa, snatching Oliver Hughes’ phone away.
"Mom, what are you doing? I’m playing a game!" Oliver Hughes was quite displeased.
Cyan Marshall clutched his phone, her expression very stern, "There is still room for reconciliation between you and Bella."
"I don’t know what you’re talking about." Oliver Hughes looked away.
Cyan Marshall knew he was somewhat avoiding it, "Don’t think I don’t know; you knew Bella was planning to go abroad. So you said you’d help me manage the charity project, but in fact, you were cutting off her chance to study abroad.
Later, when she went abroad at her own expense, you used my name to hint to the school not to let her go."
Cyan Marshall’s words left Oliver Hughes shocked; he abruptly glanced at Cyan Marshall, but then demonstratively looked away, adamantly denying, "I don’t know what you’re talking about."
"Why won’t you let Bella go abroad?" Cyan Marshall asked directly.
"I said, I..."
"It’s useless to deny it in front of me. As long as I investigate, I can find out everything clearly," Cyan Marshall reminded him.
As soon as Oliver Hughes heard this, he gave up, "Yes, it’s me. I don’t want her to just go abroad, run away. Is that okay? Why does she get to break up just like that, find Ethan Marshall just like that, and then go abroad? Why?"
"She just wants to go abroad and leave everything behind, but I don’t agree."
"You’re really overbearing." Cyan Marshall said directly, "If you can’t be together properly, you won’t let her find someone else, and you won’t let her go abroad."
"It’s not just someone else she’s finding; it’s Ethan Marshall!" Oliver Hughes was very displeased, "You know very well what kind of person Ethan Marshall is. I think he’s just using Bella Woods.
In Peace City circles, who doesn’t know your attitude towards Bella Woods? Ethan Marshall deliberately got close to her, then leaked out her relationship, making everyone know that he’s closer to the Hughes Family."
"Mom, Ethan Marshall is clearly using Bella Woods to separate us from Uncle."
Oliver Hughes’ expression was very serious; he thought he was clearly explaining the stakes and had analyzed it very precisely.
But Cyan Marshall listened with little expression and even looked at Oliver Hughes with a smile.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Oliver Hughes felt very uncomfortable being looked at.
"Oliver," Cyan Marshall looked at him seriously, "I’ve always been hinting to you, reminding you, but you never listen. Now, as your mother, I feel I must remind you once more."
"What do you really want to say?"
"I want you to carefully and calmly think about what feelings you really have for Bella."
"What feelings could I have for her!" As soon as this matter was brought up, Oliver Hughes got very agitated and stood up from the sofa, "We’ve already broken up, and the engagement party was such a mess. Why would I need any feelings?"
"Besides, you also said before, I can recognize her as a goddaughter, and in the future, I won’t hold any grudges, treating her like a sister, alright!"
Oliver Hughes was very impatient.
But Cyan Marshall was still very gentle, patiently standing up and pressing Oliver Hughes back onto the sofa.
She reminded, "When you were with Bella, you were always surrounded by other women, all kinds of people. But it seems you only had special feelings for someone named Sienna Warren."
"We were just friends."
"Then why didn’t you save her now?"
"After what she did, how could I save her? You know what she did!"
"So you do care about Bella, and you hold a grudge because of the harm caused by Sienna Warren." Cyan Marshall concluded.
Oliver Hughes was left without words, wanting to retort but not knowing how.
Cyan Marshall continued, "Haven’t you noticed that since the incident with Sienna Warren ended, you’ve been revolving around Bella?"
"I haven’t!"
"Whether you have or not, you should ask yourself. As your mother, I’m just reminding you to figure out your feelings while there’s still a chance before fully losing someone."
Cyan Marshall stood up from the sofa and continued, "If you realize your feelings, you’ll need to learn to apologize first to move forward."
"I’m..."
"Shh!" Cyan Marshall stopped him, "You don’t need to tell me; you need to ask yourself what’s in your heart."
With these words, Cyan Marshall said no more.
She understood her son well, and had always been helping him choose what he truly wanted, but this boy was spoiled, bad-tempered, intolerant of objection, arrogant, and loved to say the opposite, and was very awkward.
When bad, he was really bad.
But after all, he was her flesh and blood, and Cyan Marshall still favored him somewhat.
As Cyan Marshall prepared to leave, she happened to see Daniel Hughes returning.
"Why did you suddenly come back?" Cyan Marshall smiled when she saw her husband.
Daniel Hughes naturally wrapped an arm around Cyan Marshall’s waist; after decades together, he still loved her very much, speaking softly to her, "I left some documents in the study. Will you come with me to fetch them?"
Cyan Marshall nodded, and the couple went upstairs together.
As they pushed open the study door, Daniel Hughes sighed, for the first time opposing his wife, "You shouldn’t have said those things to him."
"You know very well, Bella is not with Ethan Marshall, but with..."
"I know." Cyan Marshall nodded, "But Ethan Marshall is a good cover. If their relationship were really exposed, it would affect both Bella and that person."
"But between Bella and Oliver..."
"I just want Oliver to confront his feelings. To learn to make amends while it’s still possible," Cyan Marshall said, "Besides, Oliver really owes Bella an apology."
"She doesn’t need it anymore."
"But our son needs this emotional growth lesson." Cyan Marshall smiled lightly.
Daniel Hughes looked at his wife, "You’re always so thorough in your thinking."
"I’m not that thorough; I promised Bella one thing."
"What thing?"
