Dump My Ex, Dive into Love with His Billionaire Uncle-Chapter 189: Joke: Sacrifice as an Older Sister

Ron Woods looked up at Bella Woods, having already hidden the vicious look in his eyes.

The way he looked at Bella was not exactly gentle, but rather calm: "I know that over the years, you’ve harbored resentment, feeling that I’ve neglected you in favor of your sister and brother."

"But Bella, you are the eldest daughter of the family, the older sister, and taking care of your younger siblings is your responsibility. Competing for affection with them is inherently absurd and undignified."

Listening to Ron Woods speaking amiably about family relationships was rare, but Bella Woods found it amusing rather than unsettling.

"You say that I’m the eldest daughter, the sister, so I have the responsibility to take care of my younger siblings, right?"

"Yes, helping parents take care of siblings and the household is truly the responsibility of an older sister."

Jade Patel walked out from inside, her face looking unpleasant: "And not every other day complaining about what your siblings have and you don’t."

"It’s not just because you were unwell that we kept you in the countryside. But have you considered that we have businesses here, your siblings are still young, and if you left the hometown, who would have taken care of your grandparents at that time?"

"If we hired a caregiver, would you be assured, or would I be assured? Moreover, once your grandparents passed, we brought you back and even linked you with such a good family as the Hughes Family."

"Bella Woods, in what ways have we treated you unfairly?" Jade Patel stared at Bella Woods and asked the bluntest question: "Tell me, what did I do or say that made you turn into such a selfish sister today?"

After speaking, Jade Patel even sneered mockingly: "Calling you a sister, do you think you are worthy of being one? I question whether you would even feel ashamed of the title."

"Okay, that’s enough said." Ron Woods reminded off to the side.

Bella Woods found it odd too. Since when did her father, who used to erupt after two words with her, start talking in such a way?

Jade Patel was visibly displeased, but she held back: "Fine, I won’t say it. I’ll go finish the cooking. After all, today is the day Elliot returns, the meal must be good."

After speaking, Jade Patel shot a glare at Bella Woods and turned back into the kitchen.

"You go rest in your room, we’ll call you when dinner is ready," Ron Woods reminded.

Bella Woods didn’t say much; she just went upstairs straight away.

The so-called room of hers had long been cluttered with a bunch of junk, and the desks and chairs were too dirty to sit on.

Bella Woods didn’t even need to check to know that her belongings had either been discarded or piled up there; her room had essentially become a storage room.

So even if she wanted to stay a night, it might not even be possible.

Thus.

They expect her to bear the responsibility of an elder sister yet don’t give her the respect a human deserves.

It’s pretty ironic.

Calm, yet calm.

Sad, yet also sad.

She’s not heartless, there are emotions, there will be something that touches her heart.

...

Downstairs in the kitchen.

After entering the kitchen, Jade Patel asked the other servants to leave and left herself and Ron Woods busy in the kitchen.

"Have you arranged everything on your end?" Jade Patel asked Ron Woods.

Ron Woods nodded: "They said that as long as Bella Woods was delivered today, they’d fill that million-dollar hole."

Saying this, Ron Woods sneered twice misleadingly: "The Hughes Family and Bella Woods think I, Ron Woods, have to rely on them to pay off my debts.

But I, Ron Woods, am no incapable fool; I’ve been in Peace City for so many years, how could I have not a single connection or method!"

"Besides, like Bella Woods, having fallen out with Oliver Hughes. Despite seemingly good relations with Third Young Master Marshall, her little pretty boy is Ethan Marshall, and Mrs. Sutton of the Marshall Family is not someone easy to mess with.

If we get implicated, our family could be dragged down by Bella Woods. Sending her away early is also a good thing."

Jade Patel nodded, thinking Ron Woods’ plan was the best.

Not only does it remove a ticking time bomb from the house, but it also solves the current biggest problem without them needing to beg others.

"But..." Jade Patel still had a concern: "Do you mean they fancy her and want to keep her around?"

"Yes, Elder Thompson is now over fifty, and his eldest son has almost taken over the family business. Elder Thompson only holds overall control, and he just has this little hobby left, and Bella Woods happens to catch his eye."

Finishing, Ron Woods added: "This girl, though plain-looking, is always on the radar of these people in the circle."

"Isn’t that thanks to you and me!"

"Remember, Elder Thompson has a cousin who’s a major figure in the capital. As long as Bella Woods is with Elder Thompson, in the future, don’t just talk about her, our entire Woods Family will be glorified."

"It’s her blessing too," Jade Patel nodded: "It’s just a pity, not having had her hymen repaired then. If it had been successfully repaired and sent to Elder Thompson, it would have been a bonus point."

"Rose Woods already mentioned it to me, she bought a kit online, we’ll let Rose handle it for her when the time comes," Ron Woods replied nonchalantly.

"Then where should we place things for now?" Jade Patel wasn’t worried once she knew Rose would be involved.

"I’ve already arranged for someone to tamper with her tableware. We won’t have any problems; trust me, I’ve arranged everything, there’ll be no mishaps!"

"I hope that after today, our family can finally settle down and truly live happily together." Jade Patel nodded, sighing: "I hope she can understand and truly bear the responsibility of being a sister."

Upstairs.

Bella Woods eventually organized a small stool and sat on the balcony, watching the scenery outside her room, part of the Woods Family’s standalone villa.

Her cell phone, on the table inside the room, rang repeatedly, yet Bella paid little attention to it, letting it ring countless times until she noticed.

Returning to the room, she found it was Cyan Marshall calling.

"Aunt Cyan," Bella Woods greeted faintly.

"I’ve arranged a car already. Just thought I’d ask if it’d be necessary for Oliver to come over and join the meal." Cyan Marshall was worried, thinking that even if Oliver Hughes was a scoundrel, he would not go too far with Bella Woods.

"No, Aunt Cyan, I can handle this myself," Bella Woods said.

"But about the Woods Family..." Cyan Marshall was worried but hesitant to express her thoughts.

"I know what you want to say, Aunt Cyan, but don’t worry, I’m not that fool I used to be. I will guard myself, and I know what they’re planning to do..."

Saying this, Bella Woods’ gaze was determined, even somewhat fierce, clenching her fist: "I will let them know, I am no longer the foolish Bella Woods!"
