The elevator stopped and she walked over to ring the doorbell. Before it rang twice, the door opened. Ben wore only a white shirt and stood inside the door with black trousers.
It's a very simple attire, but it made him even more noble and dignified.
"Mr. William ..." Bella's heart trembled as she saw him, and her voice lowered a bit.
"Come in." Ben took a step back to make room for her.
Bella lowered her head and stepped in. The door was tightly shut behind her back by the man.
"Can you tell me now what happened just now? I think I heard those men threatening you." Ben raised his eyebrows and stared at her aggressively.
"It's really alright, Mr. William. Thank you for your concern. My friend has already settled it." Bella didn't want to tell the truth.
"I'm glad that you thought of me as soon as you were in danger." Ben saw that she didn't say anything, and he didn't ask more. As long as she was safe and sound, that's OK.
Bella's face turned hot and she was inexplicably shy. Yes, when she was in danger, the first one she thought of was not her parents, but a half—familiar neighbor.
Why was it going like this?
It seemed that she lived a much too miserable life because her parents were no longer her dependents. What she could only rely on was herself now.
"Did I disturb your work?" Bella asked guiltily.
"No." Ben suddenly took a step closer to her. Bella's entire body trembled, but she resisted the urge to retreat.
"You took a bath? It smells good." Ben leaned over and found that her entire body emitted a faint fragrance. With her fresh and clean beauty, his breathing became heavy.
"Yes, because I … I'm sweating today." Bella explained embarrassedly, her beautiful eyes glittering, not daring to look straight into the man's dark eyes.
"Oh," the man lazily curled his lips.
Bella was even more embarrassed. Why did she have to explain? It was normal for her to take a bath, wasn't it?
"How are we going to have our dinner?" Ben's gaze was still locked onto her, and his voice was already much hoarser. "I'm going out to eat with my friends." Bella whispered.
"Why don't you call your friend and come eat with me?" Ben asked kindly.
"No need, there's really no need to bother you." Bella immediately refused. Even she herself was shocked by her rejecting speed. When she heard that Ben wanted her to bring Ada to his house for dinner, she felt somewhat sour.
Strange, was she jealous?
She didn't want her friends to know Ben, and she didn't want her to get close to him.
It turned out that she was also an ordinary person of all living beings. She was not morally lofty. She didn't want any other woman to approach the man she liked.
Ha.
Ben heard her say those words and saw that her eyes were moving. Moreover, her pretty face suddenly turned red, as if there was some hidden secret waiting for him to find out.
"Bella, to be honest, don't you want me to get too close to other women?"
Just as Bella was panicking, a man's fiery finger suddenly stretched out towards her chin. He gently raised it, and she was forced to meet his gaze. Her guilt was seen through by him at a glance.
"It's not that. I ... I've never thought of it this way." Bella realized that she had lied, but she had no choice. She didn't dare to admit it. She felt inferior.
