Chapter 218 - 218. Bella's Revenge (1)

Bella sat on a boulder, her gaze turned towards the blooming flowers. It was getting late, Bella remained faithful to see the garden in front of her with empty eyes.

The gurgling of the pond water and the sound of birds did not make her feel the beauty of that night. Her gaze remained flat and as if her whole body suddenly froze, In her mind began to wonder. How could she betray Zurich's love? Her heart really felt guilty, but secretly she got rid of that guilt.

Bella had a bad feeling, felt that something big was waiting for her up ahead. But what?

Her eyes then looked up at the sky, the sky wasn't too dark tonight. the clouds are also not so gray, the moonlight is more dominant and makes Bella realize that something is missing.

The night might not always be beautiful, the clouds might get darker, Or maybe... The Moon was covered by thick clouds on purpose.

Her sighs may have been heard a thousand times, The guards guarding the back, have even been heard complaining a few times. Bella told them to sit or take turns guarding, but they still wanted to stand there. Bella couldn't do anything else, she was so tired. Remembering all the things that happened because of his revenge all this time.

A mother's love that was never found, a father figure that was never seen again.

revenge, because the Berenice family who once killed her mother, made Bella be like this. Bella wants Berenice's family to break down too, wants the family to feel the loss.

How can she live this life, if she doesn't have love anymore?

Ah.. Bella didn't want to think about that.

With a heavy heart, she got up from her seat and walked slowly to her own room.

The guard was smiling sweetly, when she saw Bella who started walking towards the room. She smiled a little, "They should have been resting a long time ago."

Her footsteps were so heavy, she didn't know because of the burden on her shoulders. or because the clothes feel heavy, just sitting can make us tired.

Bella's eyes opened wide, when she was in front of her bedroom door. there was a man she knew, and seemed to be waiting.

Bella could only be silent, when they were face to face. That's when Zhu handed him a small green bottle.

Bella raised an eyebrow in confusion. "What?" Bella asked, not understanding.

"Poison, Found in Mr Douglas' room." Bella frowned, she didn't understand why Zhu came here and said about the poison in Mr Douglas' room? What does that have to do with Bella?

"Why poison in his room? Why did you bring poison here? Get out of here. Because of you my plan to kill Choon-Hee failed, how come you always come wherever I am." Bella already knew about Zhu and her sister who turned out to be the enemy, the enemy who thwarted Bella and Violet's plans.

"But you have to know, if you want to survive. You have to do something, you have to stand on someone who will save you in the future." Zhu said quietly, the man didn't come to do anything else. But he wants to help Bella, why? because he fell in love with Bella. it's been a long time since Zhu tried to help Bella with things, yesterday's problem was a misunderstanding. Zhu doesn't know if that night Bella will attack Edwards and Choon-hee.

Though Zhu was there to kidnap Choon-hee and give it to Bella, as an offer. But instead destroys Bella's plans. Zhu was quite sorry for the failure.

Besides helping Bella, Zhu also wants to survive. He does indeed forage by doing work. Like this, that's why he easily managed to kidnap Choon-Hee. But unfortunately, one of his co-workers betrayed him and took Choon-hee away.

Bella glanced briefly at her bodyguards. "You guys go, rest for a while. I'll go straight to my room, after talking to Zhu." Bella said softly.

The bodyguard immediately nodded in understanding and left, Bella immediately looked back at Zhu and looked at him with a confused look.

"Who found this?" she asked.

"One of the messengers I trusted said Mr. Douglas was sick. Not because of illness, but because of being poisoned by Mrs. Douglas. I think Edwards allowed this to happen, because he didn't really care about his father too much. If you can save Mr. Douglas, and can cure it. You can get a lot of help, Mr. Douglas doesn't like the Berenice Family, with that you and he have one mission in common." Zhu's words were indeed quite reasonable, Bella who heard this immediately fell silent and looked at the poison in her hand.

"Thanks for this information, you can go back to your place again Zhu." Bella's voice was so soft, telling Zhu to get out of there. Certainly not what Zhu wanted.

The man did not move from his place, the night was getting late and the atmosphere was so quiet. Bella could only stare the other way, when Zhu's eyes stabbed straight into Bella's eyes.

She didn't want to believe, Bella shouldn't have let Zhu take her little heart.

Bella shook her head slowly, feeling dizzy with all that was going on in her mind right now.

"Don't think too much, your little brain won't be able to accommodate everything. Don't you believe me? I can see from your pretty face, it looks like you're being wary of me. Why?" Zhu's words made Bella shake her head slowly.

"I'm sorry for being rude, I didn't mean to offend you. I'm just tired and sad about what's going on right now. So, get out of here." Bella said again, and Zhu immediately let out a rough sigh.

Zhu's hand immediately lifted Bella's chin and kissed the little girl's lips gently, Bella wanted to rebel. But Zhu first held the nape of the woman's neck, and began to lick her sweet lips like cherries in summer.

Bella didn't want to enjoy, she didn't want to feel the lips that weren't made for her. She didn't want to taste that sweet and chewy taste again, she didn't want to be hypnotized and she didn't want to let this kiss take more of her heart.

Bella tried to break free, biting Zhu's lips tightly. causing Zhu to groan in pain and break their kiss.

Plak.....!

One hard slap got by Zhu, Bella looked at the man's eyes with a flat look.

"Go! We don't have that close relationship!" Bella snapped at the man in front of her quite harshly.

"You!." Zhu said with anger that it was about to explode, but he tried not to cause a commotion.

Bella opened the door to her room, then closed it again tightly. She held her body behind the door, clutching her chest which suddenly beat faster. it feels like running and can't stop.

"Zhu, you will hate me after this. I won't stop until I get revenge, I will kill Sophia and her mother. After that, I will live in peace. I'm sorry Zhu, I love you not as much as I hate Berenice's family. The plan has gone so far, just a little bit more. I'm not going to waste the time that's been wasted."

~~~~~

few days after..

(Sophia POV)

That night, my husband and I slept hugging each other. I had a clear dream when I hugged her body, but I woke up quite surprised when something gently stroked my shoulder.

I looked back, saw the mother who had looked into my eyes and told me to follow her, I of course immediately got up slowly and followed Mother.

What does she want to talk about? I thought confused, once again I looked at Edwards. he was still sleeping comfortably, my steps were getting faster following the steps of my mother who had descended the stairs one by one. "Mom? What's wrong?" I asked, confused but the mother did not make any sound. She just walked on and on.

I ran a little and held her hand, at that moment I immediately turned around and looked her in the eye. There is something strange, moreover mother's smile also feels different.

"Nice to see you again Choon-Hee." Mom removed her hand from me, then quickly stabbed something in my neck. I was shocked, especially when I felt the stab made me fall straight away.

I saw my mother's smile that seemed to be pulling something, before long she opened something from under her neck. And when I saw that, I knew that it wasn't my mother. Instead of Bella, she wears a mask that looks a lot like mother

I wanted to scream for help, but I couldn't do anything. I'm totally paralyzed right now.

"How does it feel!? When you can't do anything and can only be silent like this? Fun isn't it? You're wondering what to give yourself? Should we do some learning about types of poison? one of the deadliest spiders. The venomous bite of the funnel-web spider is extremely lethal. The bite can penetrate through skin, nails and shoe leather. 

If not treated seriously, the effects can cause death in humans within 15 minutes. You hear? I already put the liquid in your skin, I'm the only one with the antidote. So can we talk about a few things that might be a little advantageous?" Bella asked while pulling my hand and dragging me as she pleased.

I can only surrender, hope my son is fine at this time. I quite know what poison Bella gave him. Funnel-web spiders first developed their venom as a defense mechanism against insect predators, such as flies and cockroaches. But over time, the effects of the poison are used not only to defend against insects but also to target vertebrates.

How about now? Am I really going to die?

Bella took me to the warehouse behind the Mansion, several bodyguards carried me and sat me on one of the benches.. When I looked at the Front, I was quite surprised to see my mother who was also sitting very well there. Was the mother also given the same poison? What does Bella really want?
