The Soft-Hearted Wife of Mr. Big Shot-Chapter 142: The Most Pampered Are the Happiest

Chapter 142: Chapter 142: The Most Pampered Are the Happiest

Bella Coleman stared at Holly Sawyer, who was smiling brightly. She propped her chin, envy written all over her face.

In less than a week, Holly will return to Arkenfall, and soon they’ll be miles apart again.

Oh man.

"Stop staring at me, or I’ll think you’ve fallen for me."

Holly was eating mousse cake, Bella’s gaze was too intense, so Holly looked up coolly, half-jokingly saying.

"No, no, no, I like handsome guys."

Bella shook her head vigorously, crossing her arms.

"All pretty girls like pretty girls."

Bella paused, blinked her eyes, and continued to rest her chin on her hand.

Honestly, Holly’s looks are top-notch. Bella has been admiring her for a long time, wishing she could peel Holly’s skin and wear it herself.

How can there be someone so cute and good-looking in this world?

"Don’t you have any self-awareness?"

Holly shot a cold look at Bella, speaking coolly.

Bella: "..."

Was she implying Bella’s ugly?

"You don’t have to be so dramatic."

Holly glanced at Bella, speaking slowly.

"Boss, are there any quality guys around Young Master Grant? I’d love some recommendations."

Bella quickly changed the topic, looking at Holly seriously.

Someone like Leo Grant, the perfect man, his friends should be more or less the same, right?

And they’re sure to be good-looking too.

After all, good-looking people like to hang out with good-looking people.

"Do you think they would be interested in you?"

Holly raised an eyebrow, casting a cool glance at Bella.

Bella: "..."

So blunt?

She felt a million little pains in her heart.

"I’m not lacking, okay? After all, I have a D-cup."

Bella puffed out her chest proudly, glancing at Holly’s chest.

That’s her pride.

Holly has looks, money, and power, beating Bella in every way, except for one.

Holly: "..."

She refused to speak to Bella. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Hey, have some fruit."

Holly pushed the cut fruit in front of Bella, speaking slowly.

She felt they could chat normally.

"Oh, I’m really jealous. I’m about to turn into a lemon."

Bella picked up a piece of fruit, muttering, her gaze glued to Holly.

Turns out love can be this sweet, this wonderful.

Sigh, she’s just not cut out for it.

Holly used to insist on handling everything herself, but now she’s like a lazy fish, just sitting and waiting to be fed.

Holly’s pomelo is peeled, watermelon seedless, mango kernelless, pomegranate seeded one by one, and honeydew sliced.

She doesn’t need to lift a finger; Holly just eats, with nothing else to care about.

Meeting the right person can make you feel like a pampered child, and Leo’s indulgence is exactly that.

The one being spoiled is always the happiest.

"Meeting the right person, you can really be a kid around him."

Holly smiled slightly, her gaze tender on the table full of fruits and snacks, all taken care of by Leo himself.

Leo’s very busy, dealing with many issues recently, yet he still takes time to care for her.

She used to be very independent, never relying on anyone, but now she’s slowly learning to lean on someone.

That complete sense of security is what Leo gives her.

"Dang, love really changes a person."

Bella looked Holly up and down, disdain all over her face.

She remembers Holly used to say otherwise, probably due to her parents’ drama, she held a certain opposition towards love.

But now she’s completely drowned in Leo’s tenderness.

Every sentence indirectly circles back to Leo.

Holly said nothing, her smile as soft as can be.

"Looks like my wedding gift money is a goner."

Bella clutched her wallet, pretending to be heartbroken, eyes filled with a smile of blessing.

"Make sure your red envelope’s thick enough, so you won’t lose face."

Holly propped her chin, watching Bella, the smile in her eyes growing even brighter.

Bella: "..."

Great, Holly’s sweet relationship has already provoked Bella, and now she’s planning to milk her for money?

Bella felt particularly frustrated, truly miserable.

Boo hoo.

"Boss, can we discuss business?"

Bella quickly changed the subject, clutching her heart, speaking in a grieved tone.

Sigh, she didn’t come to find Holly for idle chatter, it’s serious business.

"Weren’t you the one chatting idly?"

Holly raised an eyebrow, watching Bella with a playful gaze.

The one who initially started the conversation was Bella, Holly just went along with it.

"Ugh, Boss, here’s a map of the area around Arkenfall airport."

Bella, feeling stifled, took an A4 paper from her bag and laid it in front of Holly.

With their people stationed near the airport, they need to familiarize themselves with the layout for proper arrangement.

"We’ve observed no movement from the Grant Family yet."

Recently, Arkenfall has been very quiet, with Leo’s return nearing, but not a single stir from the Grant Family.

It’s unusually calm.

"The calmer it is, the more suspicious."

Holly glanced down, watching the map quietly.

Her mind quickly calculating how to arrange their forces, she already has an idea.

The calm is suspicious; many people want to inherit the ’throne,’ many want to compete, so it’s impossible for such a moment to be still.

"Boss, do you think behind the scenes..."

Bella trailed off, staring at Holly.

Although Leo keeps a low profile, the Grant Family isn’t brainless. They can launch surprise moves.

Regular actions may leave clues, but key moments could see moves hidden from view.

"How many people in Bexley?"

Holly suddenly raised her head, looking at Bella, her gaze somewhat alarming.

"Whoa..."

"Just a few hundred."

Bella was visibly startled by Holly’s sudden look, patting her own chest, thoroughly spooked.

No doubt, it’s a bit scary.

Damn, Holly’s shift in gaze was too quick, she couldn’t react, just felt alarmingly scared.

"Is there a map of around Bexley airport?"

Holly inquired, her eyes chilly.

"Ah... yes, yes, yes."

Bella hadn’t caught Holly’s drift, but she quickly handed over the map.
