Warm Married Life: Mr. President Loves His Darling Wife

Chapter 451 - 450: Landed the Role

Judy Zimmerman drove Bella Acker back to her apartment, and Bella collapsed onto the sofa, sleeping until the next day.

In the morning, the phone rang. Bella frowned and waited a moment before opening her eyes and picking up the phone, "Hello?"

"Bella, did I disturb your sleep?" Aunt Rhodes’s voice came from the other end of the line.

"No." Bella rubbed her aching head and said, "Aunt Rhodes, what’s up?"

"I just wanted to ask if your injuries have healed?"

Bella poured herself a cup of hot water, "They’re all healed."

"Oh, that’s good." Aunt Rhodes paused before saying, "Bella, Bonnie has been fussing about wanting to see you. When do you have time to meet up for a meal and some tea?"

"Lately, my work schedule has been pretty tight, so it might not be possible." Bella thought for a second and said, "After I finish filming a variety show, I should have a day or two off. I’ll give you a call then."

"Alright, alright," Aunt Rhodes agreed repeatedly, "When you’re on break, remember to call me. Bella, don’t overwork yourself too much, and remember to eat on time."

"Yes, I know. Thank you for your concern, Aunt Rhodes." Bella took a couple of sips of hot water, finally feeling a bit better.

They chatted a little more before ending the call.

Bella glanced at the time on her phone: ten past seven in the morning. She frowned and tossed the phone onto the sofa, walking barefoot toward the bathroom while massaging her head.

She had too much to drink last night. Waking up, her head was pounding as if it would explode. Some things she remembered, others she had completely blacked out.

After showering, Bella found three missed calls on her phone, all from Judy Zimmerman.

While drinking hot water, Bella called her back, "Hello, Piggy, I didn’t hear the phone because I was showering just now."

Judy Zimmerman on the other end said, "No worries, I’m waiting for you downstairs."

"Okay, I’ll come down as soon as I’m dressed."

After hanging up, Bella got dressed, grabbed her bag, and went downstairs. Judy was waiting with her car outside the community gate.

Bella got in the car, "Piggy, sorry for keeping you waiting."

"No, I just got here too." Judy smiled and handed over a paper bag, "Breakfast, there’s a cup of hot coffee inside. Since you got drunk last night, your head must be uncomfortable today; a cup of coffee will help."

"Piggy, you’re totally my little angel. My head really hurts right now." Bella gratefully accepted the paper bag, which contained a sandwich and a cup of hot coffee, "Piggy, have you had breakfast?"

"I ate on the way here." Judy said as she started driving.

Knowing she’d already eaten, Bella didn’t stand on ceremony and ate the whole sandwich, drinking half of the hot coffee, finally feeling alive again.

"Phew." Bella sighed with satisfaction and said, "I still need to build up my alcohol tolerance. It’s just too miserable to feel like this every time."

Judy replied, "Some people are naturally not good with alcohol, so don’t push yourself too hard."

Bella shook her head, "I can’t always rely on Ms. Young to help me block drinks." Before she finished speaking, her phone rang. The caller ID showed Cynthia Young.

"Ms. Young." Bella answered the phone.

"The role in Director Simons’s movie has been decided, you’ll play the third female lead." Cynthia’s efficient voice came through the phone, with no unnecessary words, "After the morning training, come to the studio to sign the contract."
