Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 559

The moment Sebastian said it was only right for her to spend his money, Bella's mind went blank to everything else.

"Sebastian, thank you. Ever since the public opinion shifted, I've been so worried you'd postpone the wedding because of this, that it would affect us.

"I never expected you to treat me this way. Really, thank you so much.

"Sebastian, you've eased all my anxiety and given me peace of mind.

"I don't know what I would do without you."

Bella had learned a thing or two from being around her mother for so many years; she had a certain talent for these things.

Lillian never would have said something like that to him.

Lillian came from a wealthy family, a true heiress. Even if she wasn't particularly capable, she never faced any real hardship and was never short on money.

Naturally, she would never speak to Sebastian that way.

Hearing Bella humble herself like that for the first time struck a chord with Sebastian.

"Since I promised you a wedding, we'll proceed as planned. The Mercer family's issues have little to do with you. We'll continue as we are. If a big wedding isn't appropriate right now, we can just have a smaller guest list.

"But, Bella, while the wedding is important, your work is just as important.

"You know that several parties are watching our progress on the government--sponsored projects. We can't afford any mistakes."

Bella knew that the pressure at the company was immense.

However, she was also very excited about her wedding to Sebastian.

If the wedding didn't go smoothly, she wouldn't be in the mood to work anyway.

Sebastian's serious reminder not to let her work slide made her a little uncomfortable.
