Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love By Christin Donald (Edward) novel Chapter 10

Chapter 10 

When Belle woke up the next day, it was still dark

Is it still early in the morning? Then I’ll sleep a little longer,she thought

Just as she was about to go back to sleep, Belle was alerted and suddenly sat up

In horror, she looked at the servant standing by the bed

What are you doing here?she asked

Someone had been watching her while she was asleep

The servant hurriedly said, Mr. Landor told me to wait here until you wake up.” 

Belle was stunned for a moment before asking, What time is it now?” 

It’s eleven in the morning. Mr. Landor wanted to wait for you to have breakfast with him, but you slept soundly, so Mr. Landor had his breakfast first and then went to the office,the servant replied

Belle was at a loss for words

It was already eleven o’clock

She glanced at the curtains. These black curtains completely blocked the light, which made her think it was still dark outside, so she kept sleeping

She couldn’t believe that she slept until lunchtime the first day after her wedding

Belle suddenly had an urge to burst into tears with shame

But she maintained a calm expression on her face

Oh, I overslept. Belle coughed lightly. Next time, you can just wake me up.” 

Yes, madamthe servant replied softly

She moved forward to help Belle get dressed and wash up

However, Belle hurriedly refused. She preferred to get dressed by herself

Belle freshened up as quickly as she could

When she went downstairs, she saw Penelope comforting a servant gently

Seeing Belle arrive, Penelope immediately smiled at her and said, Good morning, Belle. Adam has gone to the office again. He’s such a workaholic, not even willing to take a few days off after getting

married. Don’t be mad at him, okay?”

Belle walked over calmly and said with a smile, Why would I be mad? The 

Storm Group is a prominent company, and it’s only natural for Adam to be occupied. Aunt Penelope, I am grateful for Adam’s demanding job as it enables me to live a prosperous life. To express dissatisfaction. would be ungrateful, wouldn’t it?” 

The corners of Penelope’s lips twitched

Though Belle was talking about her own opinions, Penelope was somewhat embarrassed by the word ungrateful.” 

In an instant, Penelope became wary of Belle

She started to realize Belle wasn’t someone she could deal with casily

With these thoughts in mind, however, Penelope’s smile became even brighter. She said gently. “It’s great if you think that way.” 

Belle glanced at the servant who was still sobbing and changed the subject. What happened here?” 

Penelope sighed. Speaking of this, Belle, please try and convince Adam to reconsider his decision. The rumors about him are already getting out of hand. If he doesn’t control his temper, things will only get worse.” 

Belle felt puzzled

What exactly happened?she asked

Penelope looked at the servant with sympathy. Her name is Tessa. Her mother is seriously ill, so she started working after graduating from high school. Earlier this morning, she accidentally spilled coffee on Adam’s suit. You know, a suit doesn’t matter to him at all since he already has so many, but he fired Tessa after such a minor mistake. I think that’s a little too harsh. Things are already bad enough as it is for Tessa. I’m not Adam’s mother, so he never listens to me. But you’re his wife. Maybe he’ll listen to you.” 

Mrs. Landor, please help me,Tessa cried. If I’m fired, I won’t have money to buy the required medicine for my mother, and she will die.” 

As Tessa said that, she was about to kneel down in front of Belle

Belle quickly grabbed her and prevented her from kneeling down

Tessa didn’t expect that Belle, who appeared slim and weak, to be so strong

Tessa failed to kneel down, so she could only look at Belle pitifully. Mrs. Landor, please help me and my mother.”

Chapter 10 

Tessa was crying her eyes put, but Belle felt a little uncomfortable seeing her cry

She glanced at Penelope, who was still sighing helplessly, and suddenly asked, You said she began working after she finished high school, so does she have any unique skille?” 

Penelope froze for a moment and then replied. No, but her mother is seriously ill. I pitied her so

Aunt Penelope. Belle looked at Penelope with a faint smile. The Miller family can be considered small and insignificant compared to the Landor family, but we check our servantsqualifications and unique skills when we hire them. How come such a prestigious family like the Landor family doesn’t consider its servantsprofessionalism but instead only considers whether they are pitiful or 

not:

Not expecting Belle to suddenly say something like that, both Penelope and Tessa were dumbfounded

Tessa cried even harder. Please don’t blame Mrs. Penelope Landor. She is just kindhearted and took me in because she pitied me.” 

Belle looked at her without being moved. There are many unfortunate people in the world. The way the Landor family should help them is by establishing various charity funds and let the professionals help them. We shouldn’t bring them into our homes to cause trouble. Isn’t that right, Aunt Penelope?” 

Belle’s words were a little harsh

Penelope struggled to maintain her composure and said slowly, II didn’t think about such things 

back then.” 

This time, it was Belle’s turn to sigh

Aunt Penelope, Adans trusts you and has entrusted the management of the Landor family to you. You shouldn’t let him down.” 

Penelope remained silent

Belle then looked at Tessa again and asked, How much is the suit that was stained with coffee this morning worth?” 

What was happening now was different to what Tessa had expected, so she glanced at Penelope in a panic

Penelope forced a smile on her face. Adam’s clothes are all custommade, and that coat must cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.” 

Hundreds of thousands of dollars?Belle glanced at Tessa. A simple stain can completely ruin an expensive custom suit, so when are you going to compensate for it?”
