Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 291

Bella was overcome with joy. Sebastian had already promised to marry her.

Were wedding bells really just around the corner?

Suddenly, she remembered hearing Sebastian mention Lillian’s name last night.

But for the life of her, she couldn’t recall what he had said about Lillian.

After a moment of thought, Bella figured it must have been about the divorce.

After all, Lillian was the only obstacle standing between her and Sebastian getting married.

Once that problem was solved, everything else would fall into place.

“Bella, what are you daydreaming about? This is great news!”

Bella smiled and nodded. “He did mention before that he would get a divorce as soon as possible.”

Hannah’s smile quickly faded. “Bella, your persistence has finally paid off, but I’m miserable. I don’t know when I’ll ever get that kind of treatment.”

“What’s wrong? Did you and Brandon have a fight?”

Hannah shook her head. “If it were just a fight, that would be one thing. But now, he’s just so cold to me.

He barely replies to my texts anymore. I’m always the one who has to call him, and every time, he’s in a hurry to hang up after just a few words.

If I complain, he just says, ‘I’m busy. I don’t have time. If you want someone who can be in a relationship 24/7, find someone else.’”

Bella couldn’t help but laugh at that. “That’s harsh. How could he say that?

Don’t worry, I’ll talk to him later.

But honestly, Hannah, Brandon has been really busy lately. The company has been a bit unstable, and he’s also trying to set up his own project.

Even with our support, starting a new department comes with a lot of pressure. You should try to be more understanding.

You know the kind of man you’re dating. He’s not from an ordinary family; he’s a wealthy heir, and the eldest son at that. He carries the responsibility of his family’s prosperity on his shoulders.

Even though he has a younger brother to help, you know Colin mostly just follows Brandon’s orders.

Under these circumstances, he really is too busy to pay attention to you.

If you want a long-term future with him, I suggest you get your emotions in check. Even if you’re upset, find another way to vent. You absolutely cannot take it out on Brandon.

Since he’s so busy, you should just be his support system and help ease his burden.

We don’t come from prestigious families, and we weren’t born with silver spoons in our mouths. We have to find another way. No matter which path we take, the ultimate goal is to move up in the world and transform our lives.

I’m only telling you this because we’re good friends.”

Bella was only saying all this because she was in a good mood.

It was all because Hannah had told her that Sebastian was preparing to bring her to the Blake family estate and had already spoken to his parents about it.

This had to be a sign that something big was about to happen.

“Bella, thank you for the advice. I’ve been so worried about this lately, I was even thinking he wanted to break up with me.

After all, you know I don’t have any family connections or a wealthy background.

The only reason I can date someone at his level is because of you.
