After hearing what Kallie had to say, Bella Scott laughed: "Before today, I couldn't figure out why you would save me that one time. Now, at this moment, I finally understand the reason behind it."
Kallie furrowed her brows slightly, staying silent.
Bella continued, "You've admired Edward Anderson for years, and he used to listen to me a lot. If he knew that you treated me poorly like the other members of the Scotts, letting me die of illness, he would think you're a malicious woman. You just wanted to play the role of a white lotus in front of him to let him believe that you are a kind-hearted woman. Kallie, I never expected that you would be so calculating even when you were so young."
The reason she and Kallie had been able to coexist peacefully in the past was that Kallie wanted Edward to believe in her kind-heartedness.
