Against Heaven's Will Chapter 173 Bella's Feelings

"Oof…"
Wu couldn't help but gasp at Bella's reaction, not expecting it. She looked at Drakos and he was equally surprised.
"Bella, of course, I'm worried about you, but this is important. We can't let him finish his project. We need to act now," Drakos explained urgently, but that only worsened the situation.
"So I'm not important…? You can't even spare two seconds to check on me?" Bella asked coldly, her eyes staring straight into his soul.
"Hey…" Drakos softened immediately as he flew up to her. "Of course you are important to me. Are you okay?"
He tried to hold her hand, but she slapped it away.
"Don't touch me." Bella's words were as sharp as spears. "You only act when someone points out your wrongs. And here I thought you changed. You got me for a second, I must admit. I really thought you are someone I can depend on but I guess I was wrong. You only care about yourself."
"Bella—" Drakos tried to call her but she cut him off.
"Don't call me by my name. It's only reserved for my friends," Bella said, no longer looking at him. "Go to your Dragon girl. She must be waiting for you to save her. You two are both Dragons so it's only natural for you to want her, I understand. Don't mind us."
"I…" Drakos muttered as he looked at Wu hopelessly, but what was she supposed to do there? He fucked up. There was no other way to solve it other than begging for forgiveness.
"Hahahaha! Get rejected loser! Haha! Too bad I didn't record it. I wish I could replay it every day for a good laugh!"
King of Dwarfs didn't waste the opportunity to get back at Drakos, but seeing Wu's glare, he shut up. It seemed like he already acknowledged her as a threat.
"Both of you, calm down," Wu ordered as she flew in between them. "Bella, don't mind him. He is just stupid now and doesn't know what he is saying."
"No, Sis Wu. That's how he is all the time," Bella disagreed. "Can you imagine a future where Xuefeng doesn't check on you first if he was on Drakos' place? His first priority would always be making sure his wives are alright. That's how a man should be."
"Hey, that's enough. Can we talk about this later once we leave this place?" Drakos asked with a sigh.
He created a soundproof barrier around them and gazed at Wu, "We need to act now. We can't let him complete his Armor else he will be undefeated. He hates Dragons and plans to destroy our Race. We need to stop him."
Wu couldn't reply as Bella reacted first, ending the discussion as well.
"Yeah, you are right. That's enough. I don't have anything else to say to you. I'm also not going to help in rescuing your Dragon friend. You are on your own."
She turned around and didn't hesitate to break through the barrier Drakos created while flying away.
"Bella! Wait!" Wu called out after her but Bella only paused for a second without turning back.
"The fact that you are the one stopping me while he stays silent convinces me even more. I'm going to wait on your Flying Ship. You do whatever you want."
She passed through Trade Union's forces and landed on top of the Flying Ship as she claimed. The way she sat down and closed her eyes showed she didn't care about Drakos' case anymore.
Wu immediately glared at Drakos but he raised his arms hopelessly.
"What do you want me to do? I will try to appease her later once I ruin this bastard's plans. He is up to no good and we need to stop him," Drakos said determinedly.
"Ugh… Couldn't you at least show you care about her?" Wu grunted unhappily. "Can't you see how much effort she put into saving you? I'm really disappointed in you. Just wait till I tell Yiren about you tomorrow. You are definitely in for a beating."
"Huh? Yiren is coming here? Did you all reunite already?" Drakos asked surprised.
"Xuefeng is with everyone right now and they are coming here. I didn't know what is the problem with Bella so I organized all the help I could. They should arrive tomorrow," Wu informed as she gazed at the King of Dwarfs who was patiently waiting outside the entrance with a smug on his face. "I don't think I can push this matter as it doesn't benefit Trade Union. If you want to save her, it's best to wait for Xuefeng."
It was fine if she was saving a friend but Wu didn't plan on risking a war with the Dwarf Kingdom over some stranger. Naturally, if Xuefeng decided to help her, she wouldn't hesitate.
"No, we can't wait till tomorrow," Drakos disagreed immediately. "He will definitely do something with her overnight or even shifts her to another place. We need to save her now. If you are not going to help me, I will strike by myself."
"Ugh, let me try then," Wu agreed reluctantly.
"Is there a Female Dragon imprisoned in the Dwarf Kingdom?" Wu asked as the barrier around them disappeared.
King of Dwarfs remained smiling as he replied, "I don't think that was part of our deal. We agreed on releasing Drakos and that's it. I completed my part. We should rather continue our business discussion about Trade Union involvement in the Metal Land."
"I asked you a question first, so I require an answer. Trade Union will keep our side of the deal as well. This is a separate matter," Wu countered.
"Sure, we do have another Prisoner from Dragon Race," King of Dwarfs revealed. "Is there something wrong with that?"
"Yes, hearing you abuse other women, of course, I will get involved," Wu replied straightforwardly. "Trade Union protects Heaven Realm's citizens from any injustice."
"No one in my Kingdom will tell me how should I treat my prisoners. You are overstepping your boundaries, Miss Wu," King of Dwarfs warned. "You don't want us to become enemies."
Wu raised her brow.
"Are you really threatening me? I changed my mind. Hand her over."
