Chapter 143

“Okay,” Bella said. Then, she turned to the waiter. “That’s all for now. If we need anything later, I’ll order again. Thank you,” she said.

“You’re welcome. Your food will be ready soon,” the waiter said before leaving.

After the waiter had left, Christian crossed his legs together; his upper body leaned forward slightly, looking as if he didn’t want to stay there any longer.

Even though Bella was in a wheelchair, she still looked elegant. “I only heard of this restaurant and never tried it before. You entered here once you saw it. Have you been here before?” she asked.

He twitched his lips into a slight sneer as he laid his eyes on her. “No, I haven’t. I just came here because it’s the nearest; it saves my time.”

Bella gripped her hands and smiled despite hearing his uncharitable words. “It looks like you are busy with work. You must take good care of yourself. Your body should be your priority no matter how important your work is.”

“The company isn’t that busy. I don’t want to waste my time on some matter. So it’s meaningless as it wastes time and affects my mood.” Christian smiled.

A glint of bitterness flashed across Bella’s eyes as she grinned. Then, she stopped talking.

After a moment, the waiter served the food she had just ordered.
