NovelEnglish"Was she picking on you two?" Romeo had already sensed the gist of the situation and was feeling even more irked with Harriet. "Actually, we didn't tell you earlier because we didn't want to worry you, but it's not justhere, your wife got bullied too! That Harriet is just way out of line!" Cathy said, her voice tinged with distress.
"Didn't Arabella break her bones?" "Broke bones??" Cathy was confused, "Nope, nothing like that. It was just a light touch, like a breeze." "Then she was already being quite gracious. That should be enough to report back to the Earwood family." What was he talking about?? Did he mean to say that when Bella got physical, it was either fractures or serious injuries?? Was she really that fierce?? "Pass the phone to Arabella." Cathy obediently handed over the phone.
"Bella." Romeo's voice cthrough from the other end, now soft and tender, "You don't have to hold back when you're with me." Cathy's eyes widened in shock. Was Bella really that violent? "If it gets to injuries or worse, I'll take care of it." "It's mostly because I didn't have dinner; didn't have enough strength," Arabella joked.
"Does your hand hurt?" "Not at all." Arabella smiled, "I'm not the one in pain." "That's good. What did Cathy order for you? Is it enough?" "She didn't order; I did all the ordering." Cathy couldn't help but interject, "Romeo, I am very generous, okay! It's only when I'm with you that I'm a miser!" She muttered to herself, "It's because you always love to penalize me!" "Well then, be generous all the way, treattoo. I'll be there in ten minutes." "Romeo, can't you give Arabella spersonal space??" Cathy had finally managed to get salone twith Bella, and now Romeo was crashing the party. "Did you help her when she was fighting?" "Ah? No, I didn't." Honestly, she was too stunned at the time, she hadn't expected Bella to be so cool and impressive! "You didn't protect her, and you still have the nerve to complain? If I don't cover, what if someone else bullies her?" Cathy was momentarily lost for words at Romeo's rationale.
"Bella, you hang up first," Romeo's voice softened once again.
Arabella ended the call cleanly and decisively. Cathy watched in awe as Bella picked up her tableware and began to eat, silently admiring her all over again. ŚwIt was always Romeo who hung up on them; they had never hung up on him before.
Half an hour later. The waiter approached with a tablet, speaking respectfully, "Good evening, your total comes to $1246.4. Would you like to pay in cash or by credit card?"
