Chapter 25 The Past
Lingnan Cemetery in the evening was shrouded in a huge black shadow.
There were still flowers on Belle's tombstone, but the flowers had withered.
Angel carefully cleaned the tombstone and put down the lilies.
Then she cleaned the tombstone with a wet towel.
"I've seen them all, and they're all living very well. Belle is not forgotten, they are still using her."
"I didn't expect that the people who really cared about us were strangers without blood ties."
Angel let out a slight sigh.
"Angel, we must live a good life, a wonderful life."
The setting sun lengthened her lonely figure as she slowly left.
A bouquet of flowers lay beside the white lilies.
Jason looked at the Belle's picture on tombstone, thinking of Angel's words.
It seemed that Angel care about Belle.
Belle, someone like me had engraved you in the heart.
The Ferry Bar.
Angel drank fast.
Some things slowly cleared up in her heart.
When she was a child, Anna took Belle to play with Jason, William, Laura and Jason's cousin.
Belle was always ordered to pour tea take sugar and wash fruit By Anna, she said Belle was more carful them servants.
Belle relished it. As long as she could follow her sister, she was willing to do anything.
Jason didn't like to talk. The girls thought he was handsome, but he was boring.
Therefore, Belle always was with Jason.
Belle took good care of Jason and never bothered him much.
Sometimes they sat quietly, watching others play.
Belle used grass leaves to weave some exquisite gadgets and showed him, which made him smile.
He looked good with a smile and sometimes he touched her head.
When they were together, it was always very warm.
Gradually, Jason only liked to be with Belle.
Jason told her that when he grew up, he would marry her, give her a family and build a glass house for her to look at the stars.
Belle felt very happy to hear that.
She liked Jason. She wanted to take care of him for a lifetime.
Angel drained her glass in one gulp.
A warm flame rose in her stomach.
A woman's voice was heard, "It is up to me who my son is to marry. His wife must be helpful to his career. There are many rich ladies, but not everyone is good enough for him. Belle, stay away from Jason." "Belle, Mariam and my mother are best friends. She treats me as my mother does. She wants me to marry Jason. I can't go against her."
"Belle, Jason said he treats your as his sister. We will certainly build a glass house for you. Jason said this is what he promised you. He is your brother-in-law, and he will take care you like before." Angel drained her glass again in one gulp.
Belle wanted to ask Jason.
She wanted to know what Jason was thinking. Did he want to marry her or her sister?
If Jasonstick to his own heart, she would not give in.
It was the first time in her life that she had such a brave thought.
But, Jason disappeared.
She begged Mariam to let her see Jason.
Mariam coldly said, "Jason went abroad to study and won't come back a short time. Belle, you are 15 years old, do you parents know you come straight to look for a boy?"
"Jason is to inherit the family, didn't you understand what I told you last time? Hum! You are stupid, and not even half as good as your sister! '
The humiliation made Belle want to find a crack into the ground.
At this time, Anna pushed William to her.
William had also been a playmate, but he got along better with his sister.
What boy wouldn't like a princess?
Belle had always been Cinderella.
Anna threated Belle with the future of the family, so Belle had to accept it.
She didn't hate him anyway.
When she thought of marrying him in the future, she had all kinds of unwillingness in her heart, but her sister had told her that daughters of such noble families as themselves were all like that. However, if she spent life with William, it would be good. At least they would not disturb each other.
She was the daughter of the Newman family. Her sister was right. If the Newman family was getting better and better, they would be happy.
Then her sister studied abroad.
Belle understood her sister was with Jason.
At that moment her heart died.
She packed her schedule, reading books, volunteering at the orphanage, and playing with Angel.
She and William didn't see each other very often, and William was so busy that they only met once when their families met.
Belle liked such a distance.
But those around her knew she was deeply in love with William.
She always gave William a variety of small handmade gifts, writing poems and painting, everything.
As Laura said, she fell in love with William.
Only Belle knew what she fell in love with was an image.
She was the daughter of the Newman family, and she was not qualified to fall in love.
Belle's love died in her adolescence.
Angel's tears crept down. She wiped them off and looked up to dry her glass.
Later Anna came back from abroad.
Something had happened to the Foster family.
Brooklyn and Mariam left M city in a disgraceful manner.
Then there was no news about them.
The relationship between Jason and Anna was only known by a few people.
With the disappearance of the foster family, the matter came to an end.
And Anna never mentioned Jason.
And William who never came to the Newman's began to come frequently after Anna came back.
Belle knew nothing about it.
Now, After listening to her aunt's introduction, everything was clear. Mariam and Brooklyn had a sense of crisis and tried to arrange a marriage for their son to solve the problem. Mariam thought highly of Anna.
She knew which daughter of the Newman family was better.
Besides, Anna's birth mother Erika Allen and Mariam was good friends.
So, how did she know Belle liked Jason?
Did Jason tell her? Or did Anna tell her?
How did Anna know Jason was to build a glass house for Belle?
In addition to her and Jason, no one knew about it.
Angel had another drink.
Belle was betrayed by everyone. She never had dignity.
All affection and love were her own imagination.
"Hey, handsome, alone?" A sweet voice was heard.
Angel pulled herself together.
She was wearing a black biker suit and a black cap today, not a man's suit.
She was not going to make her brothers angry at a time like this.
But it was clear that the slightly tipsy lady thought she was a man.
Angel was tall, so it is easy for her to pretend to be a man.
"Shall we have a drink? New here? I haven't seen you around before." The beauty had lifted her shoulders and sat down beside her.
Angel, with n a slight smile, touched her glass lightly and drank it.
She looked over her shoulder at the beauty beside her, who was wearing heavy made up.
So she filled her glass.
The beauty said with a smile, "Are you going to get me drunk? You're really good-looking. Come on, let's toast. My boyfriend doesn't want me anyway."
There was glistening tears in the beauty's eyes.
Angel raised her eyebrows.
The beauty pointed to the other side of the noisy circle, "Well, Laura and Daisy, do you know them? As long as they two come, that group of men like flies would go for them. I do not intend to forgive him. I wan to break up with him!"
She spoke forcefully and desperately.
The beauty drank up the wine in the glass and went to get the bottle to pour herself a glass.
She was so drunk that she couldn't see the bottle clearly. She stretched it twice, but she failed to touch the bottle.
Angel stopped her hand, poured her soda, and said, "Don't drink it. It's not worth it."
Her voice was deep and masculine, the result of long training to match her role as Young Master Duncan.
Beauty's tears fell down. She could not get such concern from her boyfriend.
"Yes, it's not worth it. I love him, but he went to other girls."
She sighed, "Men are cheap. If you are good to him, he will not cherish."
Angel looked at her again, and it was evident that she was a well-bred girl to be able to say such a scholarly thing under such circumstances.
The beauty finished the soda and then reached for the bottle and poured herself a drink. "Let me drink," she said quietly. "Let me get drunk once and learn a lesson."
Angel didn't stop her. Maybe it wasn't a bad thing to get her drunk once.
She took the beauty's mobile phone and looked through her WeChat and sent her picture to her dad.
After inputting the address, she put down the phone and let beauty drink.
In this world, all things were to rely on their own solution.
Other people's comfort, after all, was useless.¶¶¶¶¶¶
