Rebirth: Top Actress, Your Big Shot Husband is Jealous Again!

Chapter 1165: Chapter 1165: I Don’t Understand Where Your Unreasonable Confidence Comes From

"Ahem, yes."

"But, I heard that Bella’s parents passed away a long time ago?" Bellamy Homes had a faint smile at the corner of her mouth, graceful and poised, making Lily Johnson’s face turn red.

"I am not Bella Green’s mother. My daughter’s name is Xylia Xandrell, and she has been childhood sweethearts with Mason Bennett."

Bellamy Homes listened inattentively while casually adjusting her dangly tassel earrings.

Unlike Mason’s grandmother who directly gave a check, Bellamy’s silence left Lily Johnson even more confused.

Feeling a bit anxious.

If Bellamy Homes had immediately used money to resolve the issue, she would have found it easier to deal with.

But Bellamy’s demeanor left her completely uncertain, unable to grasp what her intentions were.

"I don’t care if your daughter is dating my son, but we, the Bennett Family, only acknowledge Bella Green."

Bellamy Homes smiled at Lily Johnson, her voice elegant but still assertive and domineering.

"But, but my daughter is the one who..."

Bellamy Homes raised her hand, pointing to the two checks in front of her, and suddenly laughed.

"These two, I guess one of them is from my son to you. Obviously, he has no feelings for your daughter. I don’t understand the basis for your meddling here?"

As Bellamy spoke, she picked up the piece of paper, and with a cheerful smile, split it into two with her fingers, the thin check tearing into halves.

Hearing the sound of paper tearing, Lily Johnson felt her heart skip a beat, as if it was not the check being torn apart but her heart.

Bellamy’s words further intensified her panic.

Indeed, what she was leveraging were the facts of Xylia having dated Mason Bennett, but it was only just that, dating.

Suddenly, Lily Johnson felt her sense of righteousness dissipate into smoke.

Even thinking about it made her feel lacking in confidence. How could she answer Bellamy Homes about her confidence?

Bellamy Homes cast an indifferent glance at the sweat-covered Lily Johnson, unconcerned. Her eyes slowly fell on the other check on the table.

Although it was just a casual glance, it made Lily Johnson’s heart jump to her throat.

Her mind hadn’t registered it yet, but her hand was quick to grab the check.

Seeming as if a second later, this check too would turn into waste paper like the previous one...

Bellamy Homes smiled indifferently, slowly leaned back on the sofa.

Lily Johnson realized her actions only afterward and felt embarrassed as if she had been played.

"Ah, daughter-in-law, she’s at least Bella’s aunt, family after all. Taking the money, they leave Brocade City, sparing Bella from anxiety, right? Don’t tear up both checks, lest people say we, the Bennett Family, are stingy."

Mason’s grandmother said helplessly, clearly seeming like someone who couldn’t take charge.

Lily Johnson was terrified by these words, quickly stuffing the check into her bosom, afraid it might be torn again.

She realized this family, each more ruthless than the next, especially this woman, truly heartless.

It’s hopeless for Xylia to marry into the Bennett Family now, and if she can’t even hold onto the money, she’d be going home empty-handed for nothing.

"Well, Mason said he booked tickets for noon; I, I better go pack up now."

Lily Johnson said, standing up hurriedly and running off, clutching the check tightly.

As soon as Lily Johnson left, the composed smile Bellamy Homes had been wearing instantly changed...
