Bella laughed. "I just don't believe it. Old Mrs. Blake is old and past her prime. I can barely stand to look at her, so I doubt Mr. Blake is still interested.
Even if he was, after all these years, he must be tired of the sight of her.
Debbie is still young, beautiful, and takes care of herself. She'd be a breath of fresh air, not to mention their history.
They even have a son who's a CEO. After all this time, Old Mr. Blake should really make it up to her."
Bella’s mother agreed. "Men are all the same. Once they see each other again, I guarantee the old man's feelings will come flooding back.
As long as he's willing to rekindle things with Debbie, you'll have a mother-in-law on your side who genuinely cares for you and approves of you.
Only then will control of the Blake family truly fall into your hands.
Otherwise, my dear daughter, you'll be stuck suffering under that old woman until the day she dies. Only then will you get your chance."
Bella knew this all too well. It was because she understood the situation so clearly that she was determined to use Debbie.
"Sebastian arranged for me to have dinner with his parents this weekend. Originally, he wanted to take me to the family estate.
But those two old fossils refused. They won't let me set foot in the estate, and they don't want me anywhere near Noah.
So, they insisted on eating out.
They won't even let me in the door. Getting them to agree to the marriage is going to be incredibly difficult."
Bella was still fuming about it.
She had thought this would be a smooth process.
Now, it was looking like an uphill battle.
Martin didn't call Sabrina down for dinner until very late. A full spread of dishes was on the table, and it looked quite good.
