Chapter 76 -76: She Is His Best Choice
“Bella, you truly are part of the Marshall Family,” Calvin Marshall said happily.
She was already beautiful, and now her cheerful, radiant smile dazzled, causing Bella Woods to repeatedly overlook the ambiguity in her mention of “Marshall Family.”
“Madam, the clothes Third Young Master sent over are ready for Miss Woods to try on,” the maid reported.
“Then I’ll go try them on first.”
Bella Woods spoke to Cyan Marshall and Calvin Marshall before following the maid to the dressing room.
As soon as Bella Woods left, Cyan Marshall’s expression changed, and she called Oliver Hughes, but he didn’t answer, which annoyed Cyan Marshall immensely.
She, who was usually gentle and mild, found it hard to hide her displeasure.
“Big sis, are you calling that brat back for dinner?” Calvin Marshall leaned in to take a look, full of gossip.
“Yes, I specially invited Bella over to try on the dress today. One reason is to celebrate her starting school, and the other is to ease the tension between the two of them.”
Speaking of their relationship, Cyan Marshall looked serious.
The two of them had been childhood sweethearts, accompanying each other through growth and change, harmonious.
Yet, with Oliver Hughes stirring up this mess, their relationship was visibly deteriorating, and Oliver was growing more reckless.
“Big sis, I’m curious about one thing.”
“What is it?”
“I remember Bella coming from the countryside and not being treated well by the Woods Family. Although she saved your life, it shouldn’t warrant Oliver pledging himself to her, right?” Calvin Marshall stared eagerly at Cyan Marshall.
Cyan Marshall, upon hearing this, knew she was asking why, despite Oliver Hughes’s social standing, he chose the unremarkable Woods Family and the unwelcomed Bella Woods.
“Because it was Oliver’s first impression,” Cyan Marshall recalled. “Back then, at the hospital, Oliver came with your brother-in-law. Bella was just standing nearby, small and easily overlooked.”
“But the moment Oliver walked in, he spotted her. Within the three minutes your brother-in-law was checking on me, Oliver looked at her no less than thirty times.”
“You remember that clearly?” Calvin Marshall blurted out.
But after speaking, she thought back to all the stories she’d heard about her cousin since birth — a photographic memory, early maturity, intelligence like no other.
If she hadn’t chosen to marry back then, she might be the only one in the Marshall Family who could rival Ashton Marshall today.
“So, big sis, you’re saying Oliver fell in love with Bella at first sight, which is why you facilitated Oliver’s promise to repay her for saving your life.”
“Bella is very smart but excessively sensitive and eager for love, which makes it difficult for her to move forward,” Cyan Marshall sighed. “My intention was to have Oliver fulfill her heart’s longing for love.”
Once that desire was fulfilled, Bella Woods, with no shackles, would have limitless prospects and be an excellent asset to Oliver Hughes in the future.
Whether emotionally or professionally, Bella Woods was the best choice for Oliver Hughes.
Calvin Marshall listened silently, touched her nose, and recalled seeing Bella Woods in Ashton Marshall’s arms in the empty school classroom.
She felt Oliver Hughes had been completely outmatched.
Outmatched by her admired uncle.
Cyan Marshall kept trying to call Oliver Hughes with no success, so she directly called Allan Season: “Give the phone to Oliver Hughes.”
Allan Season, at the end of the call, had just opened the door to the Paradise World suite, saw Oliver Hughes sitting alone inside, and hesitated a bit: “Young Master Oliver, a call from Mrs. Hughes…”
“Tell her I’m not coming back, busy,” Oliver Hughes glanced up.
Allan Season got the message: “Sorry, Mrs. Hughes, I spoke with Oliver, but he’s dealing with an urgent document here at Paradise World and can’t make it back.”
“Put it on speaker,” Cyan Marshall commanded, and Allan did as instructed: “Oliver Hughes, I don’t care whether you’re willing or not, the compromise I’ve given for you and Bella is here. If you mess up again and Bella leaves you, don’t come crying to me.”

Cyan Marshall hung up the call.
Oliver Hughes, holding a drink on the sofa, pointed at his nose and looked at Allan Season: “Did you hear that? My mom says in the future Bella Woods won’t want me, and I’ll be crying like a dog begging her not to leave?”
He was dismissive: “Bella Woods is so pathetic, fawning over me like a dog. She’s just acting rebellious to catch my attention, loves me to death, and she’s the one who wouldn’t want me?”
“Ridiculous!”
Oliver Hughes laughed out of annoyance.
He just thought Bella Woods was being dramatic. After all, playing around didn’t mean abandoning her, and he wasn’t not going to get engaged, so why the fuss?
He even went to the Woods Family to appease her; what more did she want?
She just had to act out until he lost his temper to feel content.
Allan Season sat beside Oliver Hughes and tentatively asked, “It seems you don’t hold Bella Woods in high regard, so why go through the engagement?”
“The engagement is fixed; it concerns not only the Hughes Family’s reputation but also the Marshall Family’s. My uncle will attend with his girlfriend; everyone’s watching, it can’t be canceled.”
Oliver Hughes downed the red wine in one go.
Hearing this, Allan Season immediately suggested, “Since the engagement party can’t be canceled, but you don’t fancy Bella Woods, why not… swap the main character?”
“What do you mean?” Oliver Hughes set down the empty wine glass.
“I mean, you could swap the main character with someone more compatible, like…” Allan Season lowered his voice, “Sienna is pretty good in every way, she…”
“Are you trying to drive Bella Woods to her death?” Oliver Hughes had no patience for Allan’s suggestion. “She loves me like crazy, and she throws a fit over me being with other women. If I swap the bride at the engagement party, wouldn’t she put on a dramatic show?”
“But…” Allan felt puzzled, why should it matter to these young masters whether Bella Woods lived or died if they disliked her?
“Okay, don’t say things like this again. If Bella Woods hears and acts up again, it’ll be annoying.”
Oliver Hughes grabbed the car keys from the table and was about to leave.
“Young Master Oliver, where are you going?”
“Home. She asked me to eat, I’ll go back so Bella Woods won’t act up, and I can have some peace.”
…
The Hughes Family.
Ashton Marshall delivered three sets of clothes to the Hughes home for Bella Woods to try on.
Bella Woods was now wearing the third set, a floor-length gown that was short in the front and long at the back, in pure white. The design and color were extremely minimalist.
But with the cinched waist and the high-low cut design, it perfectly complemented Bella Woods.
Compared to Calvin Marshall’s striking and vivid beauty, Bella Woods was more of a classic beauty, though slender, with a typical oval face, plump apple cheeks with some baby fat, paired with a pair of clear almond eyes, a cute, soft, round face.
Her already clean aura, matched with a clean dress, gave a moonlit purity, making it hard to look away.
Only…
“Why do I feel the three dresses are more formal than what I chose for Bella, the main character?” Cyan Marshall frowned.
Nearby, Calvin Marshall, munching on seeds, choked a little.
Big sis, to be honest, Third Young Master Marshall’s girlfriend and the engagement party’s main character are the same person, so how can it not be formal?
