Chapter 2120
"I... I don't know." Bella felt uneasy.
"You don't need to give me an answer now. We will be neighbors for a long time. I hope you won't refuse my kindness to you. If you really hate that, then I won't pester you anymore." Ben said firmly.
Bella looked at him in shock. Wasn't he angry?
"I won't feel at ease if I accept your kindness to me. Mr. William, can we just be friends now?" She said.
"Of course, aren't we friends now?" Ben smiled meaningfully. Bella thought that she would be under less pressure if they were just friends.
The light suddenly went on, lightening the atmosphere.
"The power is back on. Mr. William, you can go back now." Bella said happily.
"I'll go upstairs to cook dinner. You can come and eat later." Ben stood up and looked at her expectantly.
Bella was stunned. Why was he still willing to treat her to dinner?
"Alright, I can clean your house now." Bella said.
"You can clean it once a week. There's no need to clean it every day." Ben didn't want her to work too hard.
"How about cleaning it once every three days? A week is too long." Bella smiled.
"Okay, do you want to go now?" Ben asked.
"Yes!" Bella nodded. She started to clean as soon as she entered Ben's house, while Ben went to the kitchen to cook dinner. She worked very seriously. Although she was tired, she still tried to make the house spotless.
When she was cleaning the bathroom, she suddenly saw a few black hairs and blushed. It should be normal for such things to appear in a man's bathroom.
She looked away shyly.
When she was cleaning the second floor, Ben came over and saw her sweating face, "Are you tired?"
"No. Actually, I feel more comfortable after sweating." Bella lied. In fact, she was really tired.
"You can do it tomorrow night. Now go take a shower and come to eat dinner." Ben really wanted to ask her not to work, but she might not stay for dinner if he said that.
"You eat first. I'll eat after finishing cleaning." Bella wiped her sweat and said.
"I'm the master. You have to listen to me. Go to take a bath." Ben said seriously.
Then Bella only nodded.
After taking a bath, she went to eat dinner. Halfway through the meal, Ben received a video call.
He answered it and heard a cute female voice, "Brother, what are you doing?"
Ben looked at Edith and shifted the camera to the dish on the table, "I'm eating dinner."
"Brother, you eat five dishes by
yourself? Wait a moment, move the camera over there. You're not eating alone. Who is sitting next to you? Is that a man or a woman?" Edith asked excitedly. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Ben nervously glanced at Bella and then quickly walked towards the balcony.
"Edith, you're still so noisy." Ben joked. He really doted on his younger sister.
"Brother, let me see." Edith said.
"I'm alone at home. I can't eat five dishes by myself?" Ben smiled.
"Brother, you're lying. Humph, I'm going to tell mom and let her deal with you." Edith threatened.
"Don't act up. Edith, I will go back and bring you a present another day. I'm gonna hang up now." Ben really didn't know what to do with his sister.
After hanging up the phone, Ben saw Bella sitting at the dining table blankly.
"It's my sister. I'll introduce you to each other another day." Ben smiled.
"Alright. Mr. William, I've finished eating. I should go home now." Bella stood up, but Ben grabbed her hand and said, "You haven't finished your food yet. Bella, do you have to be so polite to me? Although I confessed my love to you, I won't force you."
Bella was shocked. Why did he know what she was thinking? Yes, she was indeed afraid that Ben would force her, which should be the normal thought of all girls.
"I don't think of that. I know you're a gentleman and won't act recklessly." Bella forced a smile.
"You can go only after finishing all your food." Ben said.
Bella was unhappy. Why was he so tyrant?
"Okay!" She only agreed.
Seeing that, Ben actually wasn't happy. It was bad if a woman was so obedient, because she would lose her personality. But if he didn't force her like this, she wouldn't take good care of herself.
After dinner, Bella went home directly. Ben suddenly felt lonely.
It was still raining outside. Bella took a bath and lay on the bed, tossing and turning.
Ben was the first man she had had feelings during the past 21 years. Although she liked him, she never thought of being together with him. Was she really mentally ill?
Should she go to see a psychologist?
In the midnight, she received a phone call and heard Ada crying, "Bella, help. Someone is chasing me. I'm scared."
