Chapter 9
“This is my home. I don’t want to go anywhere else.”
Vanessie naturally pulled back her hand and sat down in the seat.
Bergen looked at the faint smile in her eyes, feeling impatient inside, and said in a low voice.
“Vanessie, do you have to be mad at me in grandma’s house?”
He looked like he was saying to Vanessie, “I’ve already explained it to you, what more do you want?”

Vanessie’s phone on the table lit up for a moment, and a notification popped up with a text message saying Funds received.
She didn’t raise her hand to grab the phone.
Bergen looked at her with a hint of disdain in his eyes, “Not good enough for you to take a look?”
Vanessie really picked up her phone and checked it.
Bergen’s face fell instantly. “I didn’t know you had become so greedy.”
negie didn’t look at him, and said in a flat tone, “That just shows you’re not very observant, you couldn’t really understand me in seven years.”
Bergen looked a bit chilly.
Vanese smiled and said, “No worries, I’ll make sure you understand completely during this time.”
She handed over the jade bracelet in her hand as she spoke.
Bergen reached out with a cold face, just as his fingertips touched the bracelet, Vanessie let go of his hand.
