Warm Married Life: Mr. President Loves His Darling Wife

Chapter 372 - 371: We’re Rich Now

Bella Acker smirked triumphantly at Damian Sinclair, just like a child winning favor, "Thank you, Aunt Sienna. I love the chicken feet you make. They taste a hundred times better than the ones outside."

"Ethan likes them too." The child, still eating fish, raised his hand as well.

"Alright, alright, one for Ethan too. Whatever Bella likes, Ethan likes too." Aunt Sienna smiled kindly, not eating herself but focusing on serving the two of them.

She actually wanted to serve Damian Sinclair as well but was worried he was particular and wouldn’t eat food others had touched, so she just watched what dishes he liked and moved them closer to him.

Bella laughed and planted a kiss on Ethan’s chubby cheek before saying, "Aunt Sienna, you have no idea, I’ve been dieting recently. I haven’t eaten chicken feet, or even meat, in ages."

"Bella, you’re already so skinny, why are you dieting?" Aunt Sienna frowned, feeling distressed, "I told you, you look much thinner since you came back this time. There’s no flesh on your face."

"I have no choice. My agent said it’s to help build my image." Bella Acker sighed.

"Build your image?" Aunt Sienna didn’t understand.

Bella explained, "It’s so I can get more work and earn more money."

"Bella, don’t take on so much work." Aunt Sienna felt a pang of heartache when she heard Bella say it was all for working hard to earn money, "There are fewer kids now, so expenses are lower too. You don’t have to work so hard. Besides, I took a job at a hotel next door recently, helping them wash bed sheets and covers. I get paid daily, and after daily expenses, I still have some left."

"What?" Bella frowned, "Aunt Sienna, why didn’t you tell me you got a job?"

"It’s not heavy work, don’t worry." Aunt Sienna knew Bella was concerned about her health and reassured her, "We originally had one washing machine, and then Miss Sinclair sent another one. With two machines helping, I just throw the sheets and covers in, take them out, and add some water. The drying is done by their hotel staff."

"Still, it’s not okay. Your health isn’t good, and taking care of Ethan is tiring enough. How can you take on a job?" Bella softened her tone and said, "Aunt Sienna, I’ve already received my pay for the film. We’re not short of money anymore. Please just focus on taking care of Ethan and quit that job, okay?"

"Bella..." Aunt Sienna took this laundry job partly to lighten Bella’s burden and also to save some money for Bella’s dowry when she gets married.

The children in their family had already suffered enough; they shouldn’t have to endure hardships during marriage too.

Seeing that speaking this way to Aunt Sienna wasn’t helpful, Bella simply grabbed her bag, pulled out a new bank card, and handed it to her, saying, "Aunt Sienna, this is my salary this time, there’s 250,000 in it."

"What?" Aunt Sienna thought she didn’t hear it right due to her age.

Bella patiently said, "This card contains 250,000, which I earned from this job. I will have more work in the future and make more money. I’ll take care of you and Ethan, so you can live a good life."

"Bella!" Aunt Sienna suddenly furrowed her brow, her expression turning serious, "How did you get this money? We may be poor, but we can’t do anything dishonest or disgraceful!"
