Warm Married Life: Mr. President Loves His Darling Wife

Chapter 348 - 347: Painful Farewell

Aunt Sienna declined, refusing to take the five hundred dollars she offered.

"Bella, you’re working outside now, and there are many places where you need to spend money. I still have some money, so just keep this for yourself." Aunt Sienna pushed the money back to her, her eyes turning red as she spoke, "Aunt Sienna is useless, making you bear such a heavy burden at such a young age."

"Aunt Sienna, we are a family, why say things like that?" Bella Acker gave her a playful look and said, "You should take this five hundred, the rent is due in three months, and by then I’ll bring money back. Aunt Sienna, if you don’t take it, I’ll get mad."

Seeing the serious look on her face, Aunt Sienna finally accepted the money with red eyes, "Silly child, you have to take good care of yourself out there, okay?"

"Aunt Sienna, don’t worry. Everyone in the crew treats me well. I even have a godmother now, and next time, I’ll bring her to see you." Bella finally smiled again, "My godmother is very nice, you’ll definitely like her."

"Okay, okay." Aunt Sienna nodded with tears and a smile, "As long as you like her, Aunt Sienna will like her too."

"Aunt Sienna, you’re the best." Bella hugged her, her eyes a bit red too, "Your legs aren’t in great shape, don’t do heavy work. If you run out of rice or oil, don’t carry it yourself, just call the grocery store owner to deliver it. Next time I come back, I’ll take you to the hospital for a check-up, and let the doctor look at your leg. If it can be treated, we will treat it."

"Okay, I’ll listen to you." Aunt Sienna raised her hand to wipe away her tears.

"Then I’m off now." Bella was reluctant to leave, but she didn’t want to rely on Damian’s money anymore for the expenses needed at the welfare home, so she had to work and earn money herself.

After bidding farewell to Aunt Sienna and the others, Bella finally left.

Damian Sinclair waited for her in the car, opening the passenger door for her as she came out.

Bella got in the car, her eyes still a bit red.

Damian started the car and said, "When you’re not here, I’ll come and see them with Bella."

"Okay." Bella wiped the corners of her eyes and said in a low voice, "Besides Ethan, the other four children have already found adoptive families. I won’t see them next time I come back. I know they need to go to new families to grow up healthy and happy, but I still can’t bear to part with them. And Aunt Sienna, I found her health seems quite bad this time. Next time when I come back, I’ll take her to the hospital. Once Ethan is also adopted, I’ll only have Aunt Sienna left."

The headmistress is gone, and if Aunt Sienna is gone too, she really won’t have any family left.

Thinking about it made Bella’s heart ache, and tears welled up in her eyes.

In her memory, Aunt Sienna was still that young and capable woman, how did she suddenly turn old and gray?

She was so afraid that one day she would lose Aunt Sienna completely, just like she lost the headmistress.

Bella sniffed and raised her hand to wipe away the tears that fell.

Damian wanted to say "You still have me," but he knew that to Bella, Aunt Sienna and the others held a special place.

Even without blood ties, they’ve always relied on each other, and their bond is closer than kin.

Damian handed her a tissue.

"Thank you." Bella took the tissue and blew her nose.

To distract her, Damian deliberately brought up another topic, "Aunt Sienna doesn’t seem to like me, why?"

"Pfft." Thinking of Aunt Sienna’s evaluation of Damian, Bella finally broke into laughter through her tears.
