Warm Married Life: Mr. President Loves His Darling Wife

Chapter 428 - 427: Have You Already Made a Decision?

Bella Acker looked at the message sent by Bella, without replying, tears fell onto the phone screen with a splash.

Damian saw the message, but didn’t reply or call her because...

Because had he already made a decision?

Was he really just going to abandon her like that?

Bella Acker’s tears kept falling, she didn’t know what she had done wrong, why she was being treated this way.

She cried for a long time, feeling both sad and unwilling, biting her lip as she dialed Damian’s number.

Damian Sinclair looked at the vibrating phone, at the incoming call display, his heart ached with a sharp, dull pain.

His gaze fell on a photo at the bedside.

A twelve or thirteen-year-old boy smiled gently, leaning on the shoulders of a six or seven-year-old child, placing a ruby-red apple on the child’s head. The sun was just right, the brotherly bond deep.

The phone vibrated for a long time, until it automatically disconnected. But it was calm for less than a second before the call came through again.

Damian Sinclair looked at the incoming call display and finally reached out to pick up the phone, pressing the answer button.

On the other end came Bella Acker’s weak voice, interspersed with sobs, "Damian, are you going to leave me?"

She cried again.

Even without facing each other, he knew she must be pale now, her cheeks streaked with tears. Those big, round eyes, like ink jade, must be filled with tears, both pitiful and sad.

Damian Sinclair’s heart ached again, his slender, powerful fingers turning white at the knuckles from gripping so tightly. After a long silence, he finally said, "Let me think about it, I’ll call you when I’ve decided."

Bella Acker listened carefully until he finished speaking, then quietly asked, "Will you still want me?"

"I don’t know, I’m really confused right now." Damian Sinclair frowned, tugging irritably at his hair.

Though he wasn’t always in control, he never had anything go beyond his grand plan.

His personality was somewhat cold, his emotions usually not fluctuating much, seldom showing anger or impatience, yet now he was full of irritation, wishing to grab someone for a good punching to vent.

It seemed all his raging fury and uncontrollable joy were related to Bella Acker.

This little woman he held dear in his heart, but with such unexpected situations arising, how was he to choose?

Bella Acker sensed something off in his tone, quickly saying, "Damian, don’t be angry, I won’t bother you... don’t be angry."

Damian Sinclair didn’t know what to say, holding the phone and looking at the photo by the bed. In his heart, he thought, big brother, tell me, what should I do?

Bella Acker couldn’t hear a sound on the other end, nor did she speak again, but she couldn’t bear to hang up the phone. This way, at least she knew he was still there.

Both fell into silence, yet kept holding their phones without disconnecting the call.

After a long time, until Aunt Sienna brought the meal, Bella Acker softly said, "Damian, Aunt Sienna is calling me to eat, I... I’ll wait for your call."

"Hmm."

They finally ended the call, only then did Ethan obediently walk over, handing his candy to Bella Acker, "Bella, eating candy will make you happy."

"Thank you, Ethan." Bella Acker put away the phone, reached out to pick up the child and placed him on the nearby bench, peeling a small gummy and putting it into his mouth.

Aunt Sienna brought over the last dish, saying, "Everyone eat now, don’t give him candy."

"Just this once." Bella Acker forced a smile.
