My Billionaire Boyfriend

“What nasty thoughts are you picturing again? Chase asked with a cheeky smile.

Bella’s face stiffened, and the calm, sweet atmosphere seemed to have vanished in an instant.

Why was he such an emotionally clueless man?

Chase needed to be ‘rehabilitated”!

Urgently!

Just as Bella was about to ‘salvage’ Chase, a voice rang out from behind them. “There you are.”

The couple turned around.

An old man in his 80s wearing a torn hat stood in front of them.

He was holding a large porcelain bowli before he handed it to Bella.

“This is all we have to offer. Please treat yourself to a bowl of spring water. It’s pretty refreshing.”

The old man gave a sincere smile while holding the porcelain bowl in his calloused hand.

Bella took the bowl and replied with a smile,”Elder Li, why are you here?”

Elder Li was one of the farmers that Bella had met from her previous visit.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Elder Li scratched his head. “You are our patron and buyer. Of course. I have to thank you on behalf of the villagers.”

He sat on the ground, looking at the picturesque scenery in front of him, and sighed. “How beautiful! But people won’t stay here. Why do the young people want to leave…”

Bella’s heart palpitated.

Heption Village was like many other rural villages; young adults tended to leave the village and to go to the city. Those who remained were mainly the elderly, women,

and children.

Life must have been tough.

Elder Li muttered, “My son had left me and told me he wanted to buy a house in the city for me to enjoy my retirement life there.

However, I’m not all about that life. I am destined to work for the rest of my life. He has been planning on buying a house for ten years. Perhaps he’s right. I am old and a little burned out indeed.”

He paused for a while and continued, “A few days ago, he called and said that he had almost earned enough money. As long as we can sell the herbs this year and bear it for another year, then perhaps I can finally retire.

I’m truly exhausted…”

As Elder Li spoke, he massaged his own waist. Chase and Bella could tell how much he longed and yearned for happiness to be with his children.

Bella’s heart ached at the sight of this.

Elder Li’s wish probably resonated among the elderly in Heption Village.

“Elder Li, don’t worry. Let’s hope that this year’is a prosperous one. Then perhaps you will have enough to start your retirement.”

Elder Li smiled. “Then I’ll have to thank you for your kind wishes. Alright, I’ll leave first. I’ll let you youngsters be.”

After that, he sauntered away slowly.

His shadow cast by the setting sun made him seem so fragile and delicate. The breeze caressed them with a trace of melancholy.

Bella had a plan in mind. If she could make quite a fortune, she would not mind to pay them extra with her personal money. It would be worthwhile to fulfill Elder Li’s wish.

Chase knew that Bella was kind-hearted Although he was a little pessimistic, he was often being motivated by Bella’s optimism.

Then they strolled around the village again.

They contacted about 10 farming suppliers during this visit.

With the market price of one thousand yuan per kilogram, they reached an agreement of acquiring a thousand kilograms. After a few days, they would sign the contract and retrieve the herbs.

And at that moment, in the Zhao family.

After Daniel informed Lincon of Ethan’s arrival, a hint of hostility flashed across Lincon’s eyes.

Daniel had told Lincon, his father, how he was being humiliated by the Song family The Zhao family now resented the Song family and Chase deeply.

There were so many things that happened recently that went against the Zhao’s. They looked like they were ready to murder.

Lincon closed his eyes and pondered for a moment.

Then he took out his phone. He had a photo which he secretly took from Vinson’s room. It was a research on the Heption Herb.

His family had purchased the Heption Herbs for several years. Thus, when Lincon saw Vinson’s research on the Heption Herb, he became even more curious.

The Song family was here.

Oh, what a good timing. He had been thinking about who he should shirk the responsibility to.

Ethan had come at the right time!

This time, he would not only destroy Ethan…

But also the Song family!

Heption Herb…. its name was sorrowfully beautiful.

But he never expected it to be poisonous!

“Let’s use the poison of the Heption Herb to destroy the Song family.” Licon smirked wickedly “Daniel, you will handle this matter personally. First, send the Heption Herb to the lab and run a toxicology examination Secondly, deal with that idiot. Agree to his request and sell 10, 000 kilograms to him at a low price!” Lincon voiced.

After seeing the picture on Lincon’s phone on Vinson’s research, a chill ran down Daniel’s spine.

He did not know that over the years, his home had stockpiled such a poisonous plant!

“Okay!” Daniel exclaimed.

Lincon was so brilliant!

Not only could he gain more respect in the family but he could also destroy the Song family, but he could also destroy the Song family at the same time!

Bella, Chase weren’t the two of them always acting all

mighty and high?

Weren’t the two of them snobbish and cocky all the time?

Let’s see. This time, would the Helping Hands Medical Center and the Song family rise to fame, or the Zhao family would make your dead cascades as the stepping stone to ascend to all the glories and become the most well-known family in Golden City!

As soon as he thought about it, he immediately went to negotiate with Ethan.

Ethan was flabbergasted when he heard the Zhao family was willing to sell -10, 000 kilograms of herbs to the Song Family at the usual market price.

It was too good to be true!

Ethan did not know he was going to embrace the disguised wrath of the Zhao family.

He didn’t expect the entire Zhao family to be idiots! How could they help him when Bella had offended the Zhao’s?

They gave up their most valuable possession to him!

The reason given by the Zhao family made Ethan giggle in his heart.

The Zhao family stated that they didn’t get the dealership from the Helping Hands Medical Center. They were disheartened and planned to venture into another field. Hence, they planned to clear off all the herbs in the warehouse.

Since Ethan was interested in buying and the Zhao family was willing to sell it, they made a deal immediately.

What a perfect coincidence!

Ethan signed the agreement on the spot.

However, he signed two contracts and then forged a fake one.

Originally, the price of these 10, 000-kilogram herbs was only 10 million yuan as per the market price.

However, Ethan’s fake agreement was meant for others to see. He stated that he had used 10 million yuan to only buy 5, 000 kilograms.

The other 5, 000 kilograms were bought by Ethan privately.

However, to convince Daniel to cooperate with Ethan’s lie, Ethan reluctantly gave Danie ltwo million dollars as hush money.

Anyway, both of them were happy getting what they wanted.

When Ethan turned around and left, both Lincon and Daniel’s eyes were full of mockery.

Who was the winner?

Who would pay for it?

Everything was uncertain.

When Ethan went back to report to the Songs, he was praised by the family.

Thus, Ethan had all the confidence in winning Bella in his competition.

To further publicize the Heption Herb, Rosaline had sponsored 20 million yuan to hire social media bloggers, internet influencers, and live streamers.

They made up many bizarre and groundless stories. The media of Golden City could not stop advertising it, drawing everyone’s attention to it.

The name of the Heption Herb spread across the whole city in an instant!

Everyone’s curiosity, especially men’s, were piqued.

The Zhao family sneered at the Song family’s scheme.

Lincon hissed with a wicked smile, “The Song family only invested 20 million in their advertisement fees? That’s too stingy, isn’t it? Daniel, give them a lift.”

He held the test report in his hand. “Spend 50 million to promote this herb! But do it secretly!”

“I’ll give them false hope before I shatter it mercilessly!” He rose from his seat and looked up into the air.

“In a few days, that b*tch, Bella, will be in your hand “.
