Together forever

Yes, I'm nobody

"Let's go!" Bella excitedly urged.

Maria nodded yes, was about to open the back door of the car, but was stopped by Bella.

"The back seat is mine, you go to the front."

Maria's trembling arm gradually retracted, her guarded eyes glanced at the indifferent man in the front seat and helplessly walked over to sit next to her.

For some reason, every time she was near that person, Maria felt almost suffocated, and because of that, her heart beat faster.

The atmosphere in the car was as tight as a string. David and Maria, although they did not look at each other, were full of hidden meanings. Bella saw this and asked:

“Maria, what kind of wedding ring do you like to buy? Is it gold, diamond, or white stone?”

Being asked by surprise made Maria quite flustered. She forced a smile and replied:

"It's okay."

David's lips curled up as if he had just smiled mockingly, he deliberately interrupted the conversation between the two women.

“I asked too many questions. She doesn't know about diamonds or white stones!"

Those words that passed through David's mouth were as light as cotton, but when they reached Maria's ears, they were as heavy as a stone. Her eyes glared at him indignantly, her face flushed with anger.

"Why don't I know?"

David didn't look at her, only his voice filled with disdain.

“Oh… so you know. So tell me what shape it has?"

Maria was like someone who had been diagnosed with a black heart, and she awkwardly replied:

“It's a sparkling diamond, or a stone of a mysterious color… the shape is like that…”

David's thin lips curled up in mockery.

"If you're stupid, don't talk, if you don't know, lean on a pillar to listen."

"Older brother…"

Bella also inhibited for Maria. She patted her son's shoulder several times:

“David, what are you saying? Do you think you look like a man in a skirt? It's better to be there with women."

David bluntly declared:

"Anyone you can leave her alone is not worth it."

It seemed that that moment broke Maria's heart, her painful eyes looked outside the car door, tears fell.

For what?

Why couldn't he treat her like other women? Why was he so in love with her? Why did she obviously become a thorn in his eyes?

She really wanted to know but didn't have the courage to ask.

They turned into the largest jewelry store in California. Inside there were all kinds of luxury gold and silver gems at home and abroad.

Bella took Maria's arm and went inside, leaving David behind. He was really helpless. On the way, as the general manager of a large company, he had to come there to carry his things and follow along to escort two women, like a genuine security guard!

Bella said to an employee standing nearby:

“Show me the best, most expensive jewelry here.”

The staff member understood immediately and brought the autumn collection imported from Europe. She skillfully introduced herself, making Bella more and more fascinating.

“Buy, I will take this set.”

Maria was surprised and a little panicked. She shook the evil mind of Bella:

“Auntie… just buying a pair of rings is enough. This set is so expensive!”

Bella gently stroked Maria's trembling hand and said softly:

"It's okay, we have bags of money to go with." Bella's eyes looked at David.

After saying that, she also chose some more jewelry for herself.

“Charge me all of them.”

When David heard this, he placed the half-read newspaper on the table and stood up to leave.

"When I'm done, I'll go."

Bella looked at the jewel on the table and then turned to her son:

“You can go if you want! When you're done with the payment, go."

“Okay… okay…” David nodded helplessly.

During the whole day, Maria was almost exhausted by the overwhelming shopping power of Bella. She goes from fashion stores to handbags to cosmetics. Looking at the price list on it, she didn't have time to be overwhelmed. She quickly put everything in the cart.

In the evening when returning home, Maria's whole body ached, her legs were numb, she couldn't move, her eyes and brain were almost working at full capacity. Never before had she felt so pressured to go shopping as she did today.

Not long after lying on the bed, there was a knock at the door. She faintly opened it, when she saw David, she boredly declared:

“I am really, really tired today. If you come to challenge, let it go tomorrow.”

David handed the thin piece of paper in his hand towards Maria, momentarily making her bewildered:

“Today's shopping receipt.”

Maria panicked and grabbed it, the endless number of numbers made her dizzy, her mouth gaping as if something big had happened!

"What do you mean?"

“What you use should be paid for by yourself.”

Even if she worked her whole life, she wouldn't be able to dig up such a large amount of money. With a blank expression, she looked up at him.

“Where did I get this money?”

"It's your business, none of my business."

Before he finished speaking, he turned his back. Maria hurriedly ran over to grab his arm:

“Can you give me a deduction? Or I can give them all back.”

He coldly flung her arm away, his expression unchanging, bluntly replied:

“How long does it take to pay?”

Mumbling calculations, a confused mind, Maria said in a panic:

“Five years… no… ten years… not enough… Fifteen years. In fifteen years I will definitely pay you in full.”

Suddenly, he turned around and pushed her against the wall.

“Don't you like to repay them with your body? Go to bed with me once and I will clear the debt.”

Maria angrily pushed him away, her eyes were as red as fire.

“David… I don't have money, but my personality dares to assert myself many times more than him. I will definitely find that money find a way to return it to you.”

Unable to hold back his anger, David grabbed her trembling shoulders tightly.

“Don't try to be naive. Isn't the fastest way for a woman to make money to go to bed with a man?"

Those words seemed to touch her self-esteem lightly, her eyes looked at the cold-blooded person in front of her with hatred, her clenched fists trying to hold back her anger.

“Are you playing a soft tie game with me? There's no need like that… as long as you can satisfy me, all requests will be accepted.”

A massive slap hit him in the face. His face was flushed red, with five finger prints clearly visible. He was a little stunned, but quickly regained his pride:

“Who do you think you are?”

Maria bit her lip to try to calm her breathing, the corners of her eyes glittered like dew, her voice choked with bitterness:

“Yes, I am nobody. But you have no right to trample me like that. It is true that I am at your house, but that does not mean that I lose my self-respect as a woman. If you are so disgusted with my presence, I will go at once to please you."

David still refused to yield, he glared menacingly.

“Okay, you can say it, definitely do it.”
