Chapter 93

The people who were secretly stealing glances were now blatantly staring at Christian.

He smiled, glanced lightly at Nancy, and said, “Do you think I’m the one responsible for delaying Bella’s marriage?”

“Of course!” She held her waist with one hand, raised her head slightly, and retorted without hesitation, “If it weren’t because of how much she liked you and how she insisted on marrying you, I would’ve arranged another marriage for her, and she’d be married by now.”

The onlookers wanted to laugh when they heard this. Instead, they sighed discreetly at how a renowned family like the Spritz Family could raise such a daughter who spoke and did things without thinking about the consequences.

“If that’s the case, then I apologize.” Christian bowed slightly and continued, “You don’t have to neglect Bella like this. You should go ahead and set up an arranged marriage for her. I wouldn’t stop you.”

Nancy did not expect to hear this from him at all and was stunned for a while. Then, she pointed at him with a trembling finger for a long time, her face flushed with anger, and she couldn’t even speak as her chest heaved with fury.

“Mom, what are you doing here?” Bella pushed her wheelchair next to Nancy. Bella’s eyes were still red. She always had a gentle temperament, giving her a sense of sophisticated beauty.

Lucas stood behind her wheelchair, frowning with angry eyes. Nevertheless, he merely shot an irate glare at Christian, clenched his fists, and didn’t speak up or add fuel to the fire.

“I’m seeking justice for you!” Nancy rambled on about how Christian had wronged Bella before lividly ending her sentence, “He doesn’t like you. Call off the engagement. Come. I’ll definitely find you a better man. I’ll make him regret this!”

With that, she pushed Lucas aside and wheeled Bella away.

Unfortunately, she held onto the wheels with both her hands, offsetting her mother’s strength. Thus, the wheelchair didn’t budge. She sighed helplessly as she looked up at her mother. “Mom, that’s enough.”
