Chapter 7
I was well aware that he had no genuine feelings for me, only false pretenses.
So I directly took a basin of co
So I directly took a basin of cold water and poured it on him.
Bryce got splashed with water and walked away in a furious manner.
I was quite happy after driving Bryce away, but I didn’t expect my mom suddenly fainted.
I hurriedly took her to the hospital, and after the examination, it was found that she had developed
uremia.
I hadn’t even had time to digest this new.
thousand, which was like a bolt from the blue.
I didn’t have five hundred thousand at all.
I heard that the surgery cost was five hundred
What if I can’t come up with the money? What will my mom do?
I stood in the corridor of the hospital, completely devastated, when I looked up and saw Bryce standing in front of me.
“Ana, as long as you agreed to be with me, I could give you five hundred thousand.”
I clenched my fist and remained silent.
Bryce looked at me and said, “Don’t you want to save your mother?”
An unprecedented despair surrounded me as I did not want to compromise, but the thought of my mother desperately waiting for the surgery fee weighed heavily on my mind.
I moved my lips and was about to speak when I heard someone calling me, “Ana.”
I turned my head and saw Steve walking towards me with big strides. “Don’t agree to him, I have five hundred thousand!”
Bryce’s face instantly changed, “It’s you again!”
Steve pushed Bryce aside and grabbed my hand, “Come on, let’s go pay the medical bill.”
And so, Steve helped my mother pay for the medical expenses, and I was deeply touched.
“I will definitely return the money to you.”
Steve smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter whether the money is returned or not, Aunt’s health is the most important.”
Bryce became furious when he saw me solve the medical expenses issue, and said that he would
make our studio unable to continue operating.
Then he started to suppress the studio, preventing us from receiving any orders.
His power was more than enough to deal with a small studio.
I knew his intention, he wanted me to bow down to him, and of course, I was unwilling to surrender, but I felt guilty for involving the studio.
I said to Steve, “Bryce is targeting me, otherwise I will resign.”
As long as I resigned, Bryce would no longer target the studio.
Steve shook his head and comforted me, “It’s okay, this studio was opened for you in the first place,
so if it closes, it closes.”
I was stunned, “What did you say?”
Steve’s expression was not very natural, but he still honestly confessed everything to me.
He had been secretly in love with me since high school, but he didn’t dare to confess to me. Later, he heard from classmates that I got married, and if I were doing well, he had no intention of ever appearing in front of me again.
He found out about my divorce recently and swore to bravely face his own emotions, so he came to
find me.
Knowing that I loved the field of design, they opened a studio and invited me for an interview.
If it weren’t for Bryce going too far, he didn’t intend to tell me because he didn’t want me to feel pressured.
After saying that, Steve looked at me in silence and scratched his head, saying, “I love you willingly, you don’t have to feel burdened by me.”
He paused for a moment and then said, “I will think of a solution for the studio’s issue, don’t
worry.”
Finally, he turned around to leave, and I grabbed his arm. “Steve, we need to work hard to save the studio. As for us, can you let me think about it?”
Steve looked at me and nodded.
Keeping the studio is not just about keeping our career, but also about keeping our dreams.
100.00%
But little did I know, the studio was on the verge of closing down.
Bryce was so despicable.
Just when we were feeling extremely frustrated, a turning point emerged. My design caught the attention of an international Hixury brand, and they reached out to me, expressing their interest in collaborating.
I excitedly agreed, knowing that the harder I worked, the luckier I would be.
No matter how rich and powerful Bryce was, he couldn’t reach that far.
And it seems that something happened in his family, his father got sick and was hospitalized, he was so busy and overwhelmed that he never came to see me again.
At the same time, I was moved by Steve’s sincerity and agreed to be with him.
The reputation of the studio grew bigger and bigger, and I became a renowned designer, winning numerous awards for the jewelry I designed.
After a period of preparation, I opened my first jewelry store and made money. Then, I continued to open branch stores, and the business was booming.
I achieved my goal and bought my first house in life, and I brought my mom over to live with me.
Three years later, Steve and I started a company, and it was on that day that Steve proposed to me.
“Ana, would you marry me?”
I knew the ring that Steve was holding in his hand. It was his own design. I had seen the design sketch six months ago, which he had worked on for several sleepless nights.
True love has always been genuine and sincere, not perfunctory.
With tears in my eyes, I agreed, “I am willing.”
Steve rarely said sweet words to me, he always expressed his love for me through practical actions. Being with him, I felt very secure and at ease.
Steve’s parents did not look down on me because I was remarried, on the contrary, they treated me
as their own daughter.
Later, I met up with my former colleagues and it was only then that I heard the gossip about Pce
from them.
Originally, Bryce was never really the scion of the Todd family, he was switched by someone.
Bryce’s biological mother was actually a servant of the Todd family. When the elderly Todds found out, they became furious and kicked Bryce and his mother out.
Bryce fell from heaven into the dirt and became the laughingstock of the whole town, living a life of poverty and destitution.
In order to survive, he could only work as a delivery person.
Now, he became a real poor person.
