Dump My Ex, Dive into Love with His Billionaire Uncle-Chapter 127 - : Must-Haves for a Date: Flowers, Milk Tea, and Small Cakes

Tessa Sutton didn’t say much more and left.

Bella Woods looked down at the invitation; the birthday party was tonight, the address was at the Sutton Family.

Bella Woods knew a little about the Sutton Family, ranking quite high among the families in Peace City, but their reputation seemed not so good.

Bella Woods had heard them mentioned several times, but never anything positive.

“I thought you would refuse,” Calvin Marshall commented, taking the invitation to see after, “But on second thought, you might accept. After all, when you were younger in your hometown, you were all about studying. Even when you came to Peace City for four years, Oliver Hughes was quite a mess and didn’t take you to see the scenery of this city properly.”

This wrong city, including the invitations between the wealthy families, was quite interesting.

However, Oliver Hughes only took Bella Woods to the circles where people looked down on her and never really brought her into them to let her experience the inner workings.

“Just to see the world.” Bella Woods smiled.

Calvin Marshall didn’t think much of it, “It’s a good chance to have fun. But, because of the Sutton Family’s side, it’s inconvenient for me to go, so I can’t accompany you.”

Bella Woods listened with curiosity.

It felt like Calvin Marshall had some story with the Sutton Family.

But on second thought, since Calvin Marshall didn’t bring it up, it wouldn’t be good to ask.

If it wasn’t convenient for him to talk about it, and she asked, it would place him in an awkward position.

“No worries, I’ll just stay there for a bit.”

Calvin Marshall nodded, “By the way, about the matter I asked my sister to investigate for you, consider it. I always think there’s something fishy about it, and you should find out.”

“I will seriously consider it.” Bella Woods nodded, then suddenly remembered something, “Do you have any plans later?”

“I have a class in the afternoon, why?”

“Oh, nothing. I just wanted to buy a small gift for Tessa Sutton.”

“Didn’t she say you don’t have to prepare a gift?”

“She said no need, but since I am invited, it’s still nice to prepare something.” Even if it’s a small gift, it’s a matter of etiquette.

Bella Woods thought it would be impolite to go to an invited birthday party empty-handed.

“I have class, but I’ve texted someone, and someone will accompany you.” Calvin Marshall patted Bella Woods’ shoulder with a smile.

Before Bella Woods could react, her phone rang.

The caller was Ashton Marshall.

In an instant, Bella Woods understood Calvin Marshall’s words and felt very helpless, “You…”

Calvin Marshall shrugged, “I’m a good sister.”

She waved goodbye to Bella Woods with a smile and indicated that she was going back to her college to prepare for class.

Bella Woods took a deep breath and answered the phone, “Hello?”

“I’m at the school gate.” Ashton Marshall paused, “The usual place.”

Two streets away from the school.

This was the result of Bella Woods’ insistence, otherwise, she would take the subway to school herself.

“I’ll be out soon, wait for me a bit,” Bella Woods replied.

“Good, no rush,” Ashton Marshall’s tone was indulgently doting.

Bella Woods didn’t say much and quickly hung up the phone.

But her heart was pounding wildly because of his indulgent tone.

“Enjoy it, don’t overthink, it’s just a fleeting feeling of romance.” Bella Woods murmured, trying to keep herself rational and not get lost.

His tenderness was all based on his current interest in this game.

Once he lost interest, he would immediately withdraw.

So Bella Woods couldn’t let herself get carried away or take it seriously.

Bella Woods composed herself, maintaining a happy demeanor as she left the school to get to where Ashton Marshall parked his car.

Just as Bella Woods arrived at the car, Ashton Marshall got out and walked to the passenger seat, opening the door with a gentle smile, patiently waiting for Bella Woods to walk over.

Bella Woods walked over with a laughing demeanor, “Have you been waiting long…”

Before she finished her sentence, out of the corner of her eye, she saw vibrant pink roses, milk tea, and small cakes on the passenger seat, and her eyes lit up.

Very surprised.

“You prepared…” she pointed at herself, “for me?”

“If not for you, then for whom?” Ashton Marshall bent down to look her in the eye, pinching her cheek, mocking her silly question.

“I… this…”

A bit too surprising.

Ashton Marshall bent to take the roses out and handed them to her.

Bella Woods held them, smelling a fresh floral scent, with droplets on the petals, vibrantly lovely.

At the same time, Ashton Marshall had already prepared the milk tea with a straw and reached it to her lips.

Bella Woods took a big sip, her eyes enjoying the mellow milk tea flavor filling her senses.

Very sweet, but not overpowering.

It was exactly to her liking.

“Is it good?” Ashton Marshall asked.

Bella Woods nodded enthusiastically, handing the milk tea to him, “You try, it’s good.”

“Hmm, I’ll try it.”

Ashton Marshall responded, but instead of putting the straw in his lips, he moved close to Bella Woods’s lips.

Bella Woods froze.

Ashton Marshall held her chin, gently parting her lips and sweeping across them all.

Finally, he gave a verdict, “Hmm, very sweet.”

Bella Woods’s eyes were watery, with flushed cheeks, embarrassed to bite her lips, quickly lowering her head, but couldn’t help muttering, “Let you try the milk tea, and you taste…”

“What did you say?” Ashton Marshall obviously heard but still deliberately leaned closer to the ear and asked.

“Nothing.” Bella Woods felt embarrassed, pushing him away, holding the milk tea and flowers as she headed to the car.

Ashton Marshall chuckled softly, shaking his head.

He helped Bella Woods place the small cake beside the seat, and the flowers in the back seat. Once she was seated, he even buckled her seatbelt.

But as he straightened up, seeing Bella Woods’s flushed face, he couldn’t resist kissing her on the lips again.

Bella Woods caught sight of passing classmates out of the corner of her eye, feeling embarrassed and quickly pushing Ashton Marshall, “Start driving, I need to buy a gift.”

“What gift?” Ashton Marshall inquired.

“Didn’t Sixty tell you?”

“Hmm?”

“A classmate named Tessa Sutton invited me to her birthday party, and I need to go shopping for a gift.”

After Bella Woods said this, she obviously felt Ashton Marshall’s smile fade, with a fleeting emotion passing through his eyes.
