"I'm not very familiar with them, so let's skip dinner."
Unless Bella Green was out of her mind, she'd never drag the old Mrs. Bennett to have a meal with this bunch...
However, her repeated refusals made Francesca Willis's face completely drop, her gentle expression vanished like a conjurer's trick without a trace.
"Do you even have any manners? If I tell you to invite them, you invite them. Why all the talk? You're fed and housed every day, and when I ask you to do something, you keep shirking it."
The familiar scolding made Bella Green chuckle despite herself, the curve of her lips thin and sorrowful.
"So, you want me to invite them not to thank them for taking care of me, huh?" Bella Green said with a smile.
Hearing this, Francesca Willis's face looked a bit ugly, although Bella was telling the truth, being exposed like that was still unpleasant.
With her face lost, Francesca Willis couldn't keep up the facade anymore and ripped into her directly.
