The Soft-Hearted Wife of Mr. Big Shot-Chapter 105: Meeting Is a Blessing

"Oh, not much, not much. Don’t sweat the details. I don’t want to work hard anymore; I just want to be a couch potato, a couch potato that doesn’t worry about food and drink."

Bella Coleman said, resting her face in her hands and heaving a heavy sigh.

Making money is tough. While she’s not particularly short on cash, the idea of having lots and lots of money has never waned.

She really wants something for nothing.

"Keep dreaming."

Diana Curtis smacked Bella Coleman on the back, ribbing her.

Who doesn’t want to be a couch potato that doesn’t worry about food and drink? She wants it too, it’s just that she feels she’s not worthy.

"I like men, so maybe you could try going to Siamara for a gender reassignment surgery, who knows, I might abandon Leo Grant and fall for you instead."

Holly Sawyer said with a smile hovering on her lips, speaking slowly.

Everyone can joke.

Although her status is higher than Diana and Bella’s, and they should probably respect her, Holly Sawyer doesn’t like that feeling, preferring the interaction between friends.

Everyone in The Pantheon, after spending time with her, no longer sees her as a superior, but rather engages with her like friends.

They only listen to her on major issues. For other trivial matters they want to pursue, just a word with her is enough; she won’t stop them.

The Pantheon’s people are free, free in all they do. Holly Sawyer won’t interfere with them.

"Really?"

Bella Coleman beamed.

"I’ll get you the plane ticket, go on, go on."

Diana Curtis pushed Bella Coleman away with an expression of disdain.

She doesn’t want to admit knowing Bella Coleman; honestly, it’s too terrifying.

"Alright, alright, you’re truly an awesome sister."

Bella Coleman draped herself over Diana Curtis’ shoulders, grinning as she spoke.

Diana Curtis: "..."

She just wanted to say, get lost.

"Alright, enough joking."

Holly Sawyer tapped the table and said.

"Boss, I want to go to Arkenfall."

Bella Coleman immediately became serious, speaking slowly, with an air of solemnity.

She’s grown tired of staying in Bexley for so long that she wants a change of scenery. Though she grew up in Bexley, she has no family left there now, only friends, nothing else.

She’s indifferent to where she goes, unperturbed by such trivial matters.

Holly Sawyer: "Sure."

Where they want to go is their freedom, what they want to do is their freedom, she won’t be an obstacle.

As long as they brief her, keeping her informed of their situation, everything else is negligible.

"Boss, meeting you has been the luckiest thing in my life."

Bella Coleman said earnestly, her eyes filled with sincerity.

Indeed, she feels honored to know Holly Sawyer—not just her, probably everyone in The Pantheon feels lucky to know Holly Sawyer.

"Meeting you all, I feel very fortunate too."

Holly Sawyer laughed, her smile exceptionally tender.

The world is vast, with little chance of meeting. Being able to meet and get acquainted is inherently a fortunate thing.

Knowing a whole group of people from The Pantheon, Holly Sawyer also feels lucky to encounter such a crowd that brings her joy in life.

"The meat’s overcooked."

Diana Curtis looked at the still-boiling slices in the pot, grumbling.

She felt if they continued talking, it’d get overly sentimental, which she couldn’t stand, afraid she’d end up crying.

"Don’t interrupt my hotpot eating, shut your mouth."

Holly Sawyer fished out the tripe she had put into the pot and took a bite, finding it overcooked, becoming hard to chew.

She subtly shot Bella Coleman a glare; tripe typically cooks quickly, but Bella Coleman had kept her talking, causing her to forget all about the tripe.

Bella Coleman: "..."

She felt hurt, her heart aching.

To think it was blamed on her was utterly difficult.

Diana Curtis covered her mouth and chuckled lightly; everyone knew that Holly Sawyer ate largest, and Bella Coleman secretly wanted to win this topic.

"Boss, am I worthless in front of food?"

Bella Coleman stabbed the meat slices in her bowl, smacking her lips and said, a pitiful look on her face.

It’s so tough; she couldn’t match even a hotpot, her heart was terribly bothered.

"When hungry, one must eat—can you satisfy hunger just looking at you?"

Holly Sawyer raised an eyebrow, speaking slowly, glancing at Bella Coleman.

Eating makes her happy and doesn’t make her feel hungry, of course, food is paramount.

Bella Coleman: "..."

Such a good point, she found herself speechless.

Indeed, she doesn’t satisfy hunger.

——

The news of Leo Grant being with Holly Sawyer quickly reached Rosalie Jennings, who angrily went to Veridian University to confront Holly Sawyer.

Confronting Leo was useless, so she had to tackle Holly Sawyer.

She had long known Holly Sawyer wasn’t simple, but didn’t expect her to hide so well, managing to snag Leo Grant.

Amnesia? 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Ha, none of that exists, Holly Sawyer must have approached Leo Grant with a purpose, which is now glaringly obvious.

Scheming diva!

"Holly Sawyer."

Holly Sawyer just finished her course and walked out of the classroom with Diana Curtis, facing an enraged Rosalie Jennings.

Rosalie Jennings’ face was full of fury, her gaze towards Holly Sawyer hostile, looking as if she could tear Holly Sawyer apart any moment.

"What, you missed me?"

Holly Sawyer stuck her hands in her pants pockets, looking nonchalant, smiling as she looked at Rosalie Jennings.

She knew why Rosalie Jennings came, Holly Sawyer’s mind was crystal clear.

Rosalie Jennings liked Leo Grant, but Leo Grant didn’t feel anything for her, not even after being together for a year.

"Get lost! Who the hell misses you, shameless."

Looking at Holly Sawyer’s nonchalant demeanor, Rosalie Jennings fumed, overwhelmed with anger.

She simply couldn’t understand what Leo Grant saw in Holly Sawyer.

She admits Holly Sawyer is more attractive, but is Leo Grant one who judges by looks?

"Miss Jennings, what do you need? I’m quite busy, got another class later."

Holly Sawyer glanced at the time on her phone, speaking casually.

She’s now attending classes regularly, even if she’s not paying much attention, she needs to keep appearances.

"Why did you approach Leo Grant?"

Rosalie Jennings posed the question, her tone urgent.

"My intentions aren’t pure."

Holly Sawyer blinked, a twinkle of humor hidden in her eyes.

"You... leave Leo, I’ll give you anything you want."

The news of Leo Grant being with Holly Sawyer made Rosalie Jennings the first to feel dissatisfied.

She meticulously planned to approach Leo Grant, vigorously orchestrated that "game," all to be with Leo Grant.

Feelings can be cultivated gradually, their deadline was a year, she assumed Leo Grant would have developed some feelings for her, but later she realized she was mistaken.

Upon learning Holly Sawyer and Leo Grant were together, she felt her heart sink, painfully so.
