The System's Favor Chapter 2

Bella finally didn't call Doe, Mr. Vanderbilt gave her a new name, Bella-Ann.

First night at Vanderbilt home, I watched a good show.

Julian Sterling, Bella-Ann's childhood sweetheart, appeared.

On him, I heard the same electronic voice as Mr. and Mrs. Vanderbilt.

In previous life Julian actively talked to me, implicitly expressing love for me, quickly maxed my Affection Score, became High Society prince.

At my funeral, he hid in the cloakroom kissing Bella-Ann, face full of deep affection confessing.

"Bella, the one I love has always been only you."

In this life, he greeted me like in memory.

"You must be Bella's sister, hello, I am Julian Sterling."

I didn't shake his extended hand, sat on sofa by myself.

"Mr. Sterling, you probably don't know yet, now I am Bella. The person you said, is called Bella-Ann."

Julian slightly stunned, a trace of anger flashed in eyes.

"Julian brother, why you came!"

Bella-Ann's voice very surprised.

She pounced to Julian side, hugged his arm, attitude very intimate.

Julian scraped her nose.

"Heard your sister found, I come look, convenient to mooch a meal."

Bella-Ann heard him mention me, tone somewhat bad.

"Turns out you didn't come find me."

"Sister sister, your eyes only have sister, might as well I leave!"

Julian quickly pulled her, conjured a necklace from bosom.

"This is Tiffany new style, bought as soon as launched, you say, who I am thinking of?"

A trace of blush flashed on Bella-Ann face,嬌滴滴 (coquettishly) let Julian help her put on, eyes looking at me full of provocation.

[Target Affection Score -20, current score -20, imminent Lightning Strike punishment.]

Julian's hand paused, looked at me in disbelief.

"Bella..."

Words haven't finished, he trembled, face revealing painful look.

In previous life, because lack of love, I obeyed Julian in everything, he easily conquered me with some small favors.

But in this life, I am no longer a Simp expecting love.

I quietly looked at him.

"Julian Sterling, I also want this necklace."

Bella-Ann subconsciously screamed.

"Impossible!"

"Julian brother, you won't do this, right?"

Julian nodded.

"This is gift I give you, I won't..."

[Target Affection Score -20, current score -40, imminent Ten Thousand Needles Piercing Heart punishment.]

Julian who was trembling with pain fiercely reached out and tore off the necklace on Bella-Ann's neck.

"Sorry, Bella-Ann, this one yield to your sister first! Tomorrow I give you another better one, I definitely compensate you!"

Julian pulled somewhat urgent, nails scratched Bella-Ann neck, oozing few blood beads.

Bella-Ann covered neck, loud crying shout.

"Why, why you all treat me like this!"

Julian wanted to comfort her, but pushed away, his fist clenched and loosened, finally squeezed out a smile to me.

"Pearl, this necklace give you, are you happier a bit?"

[Target Affection Score +1, current score -39. Score still negative, please Host improve ASAP.]

Julian's face twitched, smile more forced.

I twirled necklace on index finger: "Thanks."
