Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 697

“After all, you’re such a great help to Sebastian at the company.”

Bella was already upset about this, and Debbie’s words only made her feel worse.

She grabbed Debbie’s hand pitifully. “Ms. Harris, you don’t know. The Blake elders don’t like me. They don’t plan on giving me a single cent for the bride price.”

Debbie’s voice shot up. “What? They’re not giving you anything? That’s unacceptable!”

“This is a marriage, for crying out loud! How can they bully you like this? Not giving any bride price? People will laugh their heads off when they hear about it!”

“Ms. Harris, maybe you should go back to the Blake family soon and stand up for me.”

“Old Mrs. Blake adores Lillian. She was already against Sebastian divorcing her.”

“Now that Sebastian is marrying me, she’s even more displeased and has convinced the old man not to give any bride price.”

“No stocks, no nothing.”

“Ms. Harris, what should I do?”

“In the future, when people find out, they’ll definitely be whispering behind my back.”

“And what about my future children with Sebastian? People will say their status is questionable.”

Debbie understood now. So, this was what Bella was waiting for.

It seemed that from the moment she brought her to Northwyn, Bella had this plan in mind.

She intended to wait for the right moment and have her go to the Blake family to fight for her.

Too bad. Bella had no idea about her awkward position. She had no right to fight for anything.

“Bella, I agree they’re being completely unreasonable about this.”

After all, she needed to be prepared for her one-billion-dollar line of credit at the casino.

It would be troublesome if she had no preparations at all.

Bella said, “I haven’t thought about that. But as you know, Ms. Harris, I’m fighting for my dignity here, not the money. It’s about pride.”

“Lillian is Sebastian’s ex-wife. Now, I am his fiancée. I can’t be a step below her in every aspect, can I?”

Debbie nodded. “That makes sense.”

“Ms. Harris, my mother and I will make the arrangements. We’ll set up a meeting for you and Old Mr. Blake, alright?”

“You have to meet him to have the chance to speak up for me.”

“I’m sure that since you’re Sebastian’s mother, the old man will listen to you.”
