Seeing Edward Anderson so nervous about Bella Scott, it was clear that Bella was the rightful heir to the future Madam Anderson's position. If it were ancient times, Edward would have been the emperor, and Bella the empress without a doubt.
With such a status, who would dare to treat her carelessly?
Bella saw so many dishes her eyes were dazzled; she didn't want to waste everyone's good intentions. But with all these dishes, she could only taste so much, if she didn't want to stuff herself to death.
In the end, she left only about ten dishes. The other dishes were not taken away, but placed not far away. If Bella wanted to eat them, the waiters would bring them at any time.
Such an ostentatious display made Bella feel suffocated during this dinner.
She, too, had been poor before. Although she was Miss Scott in the past, she had lived a life worse than that of a servant at the Scotts. Being beaten and scolded was a common occurrence, and sometimes she couldn't even eat.
