Chapter 2135
"Ada, was the girl who left with President William your friend? Is she seeing him? They seem to be very close." A co-worker asked out of curiosity. "I don''t know." Ada was irritated.
Seeing Ada was not in the mood, they didn''t ask any more.
Ada sat in front of her office table, her face darkened. She clenched her fists in hatred and was jealous of Be.
Be was readingpany profile in Ben''s office when her phone rang. She frowned. It was from grandma
Her phone kept ringing. Be didn''t want to disturb Ben, so she answered it.
"Be, shame on you! Do you co-habit with a man?" Mrs. Charles bellowed.
"Who said that? Nonsense." Be retorted.
"Somebody saw it. How dare you lie to me? Be, if you bring shame to the Charles again, don''t me me for cutting ties with you. The Charles are not as barefaced as you are." Mrs. Charles was very blunt as she was in a rage.
"As you wish. I''ll be back tomorrow and go through the procedures. It''s nonsense. But you choose to believe it. You just don''t like me." Be blushed with fury because her grandmother was very unreasonable.
"Alright. Don''t forget your promise." Mrs. Charles was only too anxious kick her out. Rosia had promised she would have another child, a son. Be should make room for the unborn grandson.
"I will." She hung up angrily, her face being pale.
Ben looked at her from his chair. Seeing she was in anger, he got up, walked towards her and said, "Who did you quarrel with?"
"My grandmother." Be buried her face in her hands, "She doesn''t like me. I don''t know what I did wrong. She treats me like I weren''t her granddaughter."
"Is it because your grandmother is gender-biased? Don''t be sad for things that are not your fault." Ben was astonished by her family. They were all crazy. Be took a deep breath and wiped away her tears. "I''m not sad. I''m angry."
"Looks like you family don''t respect you at all." Ben felt sorry for Be who was upset for being wronged.
Be''s face turned pale. Such a cruel fact hurt her.
"I''m born to be useful. What''s wrong with it? Aren''t girls entitled to be alive?" Be retorted unconvincingly.
Benughed, bent down and kissed her. He said, "Don''t be angry. I''ll take you to dinner tonight."
"What about we dine in? I''ll buy ingredients." Be didn''t want him to spend money on her. She should do something for him.
"Sounds great. Then let''s go home." Benpletely fell for her. With her by his side, he was always cheerful.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Be got a warm fuzzy feeling inside.
Ada had a new apartment, so she could only move out.
Ben drove Be and Ada home after work. He said, "Ada, your apartment is ready. You can move in tonight. Go to the personnel department and sign the document."
Ada was tongue-tied. Since Ben asked, she couldn''t refuse.
"Alright, I''ll go pack now." Ada said with a smile. Then, she looked at Be with an apologetic expression, "Be, thank you so much."
Her smile reminded Be of what Ben had said. She was confused. Should she still be friends with Ada?
"You''re being too polite. We''re friends. We should help each other." Be said with a smile.
When they got home, Be went to the supermarket and Ada packed her things.
Be bought some ingredients in the supermarket. When she came back, Ada was sitting on the sofa, looking anxious.
"Be, I''m sorry. I spilled coffee on
your dress when I was drinking it. It''s my fault. I didn''t do it on purpose." Ada was holding the beige dress that Be had lent her. It was stained."
Be froze.
"I''m really sorry. I shouldn''t have borrowed it in the first ce." As Ada apologized and her eyes turned red.
"It''s fine. I''ll take it to the dry cleaning
shop. Maybe they have a way to clean it. Be was truly distressed, but she couldn''t me Ada because Ada didn''t do it on purpose.
"Let me do it." Ada hurriedly said.
"No need. I''ll do it myself. Ada, are you packed?" Be asked.
"Yes. I''m done. I''m leaving now. I still have to clean up over there." Ada carried her suitcase and walked out.
Be escorted her to the elevator. "Be careful."
"Sure. Go back. I''m leaving." Ada said with a smile.
When the elevator closed, her friendly smile turned into sneer.
She poured the coffee on purpose because she was jealous of Be.
Be ran to the bathroom and scrubbed the dress. However, there was still a faint trace.
"I can''t clean it." Be finally epted this fact. She put it in a bag and nned to take it to dry cleaning shop.
Hearing her phone ringing, she ran over to answer it. It was Ben.
She remembered she had bought some vegetables, but left them outside. She walked out while answering the phone. Just as she closed the door, Be shivered She forgot to carry her backpack The key was inside.
Her eyes widened in astonishment. She looked at the phone and then at the shopping bag. Her mind was empty.
When people were anxious, they made mistakes.
What should she do?
How could she go home? Ada left the key on the table. She simply couldn''t open the door.
Be was very annoyed. It seemed that she had to find someone to pick the lock.
She went to Ben''s house. Ben had already taken off his suit and was in a ck shirt. He saw her sullen expression and asked with concern, "What''s wrong?"
"I left my keys at home." Be smiled bitterly.
"That''s great! Stay at my home tonight." Ben was happy to hear it. Be was speechless.
