The Billionaire’s Kick Ass Wife

Chapter 321 Self-Reliance

The man silently looked into Betty’s sincere big eyes for a moment. He coughed awkwardly and explained, “No, there’s no need. Betty. Me and your Grandma Grey are old friends, but don’t tell her.”

“Why not?”

Betty’s big eyes flashed with suspicion. She looked at the man as if she was looking at the big bad wolf who had deceived Little Red Riding Hood.

“The big bad wolf… Oh no.” the man carried Betty into the house and said, “Because I’m embarrassed!” Betty tilted her head and sized up this man.

The man felt uncomfortable under her gaze. “Betty, Grandpa will cook noodles for you.”

The group entered the house. Steam was rising from the stove in the kitchen. Water was boiling in a pot. Cut cabbage lay on a chopping board beside it.

The bedding in the room was old, but it was very clean. There was also the smell of sunlight.

The walls had been brushed by someone. Although it was simple, it was white and clean. The ground was black and gray cement, and it had been mopped clean.

Betty looked around curiously for a moment. Her little face became serious. “Uncle, is this your home?” The man nodded with a smile and said, “Yes, this is my home, Betty. Don’t call me uncle. You see I’m too old to be called uncle. My surname is Wright. You can call me Mr. Wright.”

Betty nodded obediently and said, “Mr. Wright, Betty and Grandma Grey won’t think that you’re poor. Don’t be shy.”

“Grandpa Jaye and the others won’t think that you’re poor. Don’t be embarrassed to be with them just because you’re poor!” she added.

She reached out her fair and tender hand and patted the man’s shoulder, Her big eyes were especially sincere.

Her mother had said that one should not judge a book by its cover, let alone look down on others just because they were poor. When making friends, one had to first take their characters into consideration.

Landon was speechless.

“Hahaha, Betty, do you have some misunderstanding about the word ‘friend”?”

Lance and the others laughed loudly from behind. They all looked at the man mockingly.

Landon glared at them with a dark expression. This group of people who were watching the show did not mind making a big deal out of it. They actually dared to watch him make a fool of himself.

Betty looked at them in confusion, not understanding why they were laughing.

Her confused eyes were extremely cute. Landon’s expression softened and he could not help but reveal a loving expression.

He placed Betty on the sofa beside the bed, got up, and went to the kitchen to cook noodles.
