Bella thought of the images of last night’s orgy, and felt embarrassed. She walked barefoot to the bathroom, said to Kevin who was combing his teeth, “I must confess something to you today.”
“What is it? Let’s talk about it tonight. I’m in a hurry.”
Seeing how busy he really was, she reluctantly agreed, “Alright then, let’s talk about it when we come back tonight.”
Before Kevin went out the door, he kissed her forehead and quietly stuck to her ear and said, “Last night was awesome, I show the white feather.”
Bella blushed, swallowed her saliva and kicked him in embarrassment, “Bastard.”
After Kevin went to the office, Bella also shuffled downstairs. Blanche sat on the sofa in the living room, knowing why she and Kevin got up late, smiled and ordered the maid, “Bring the soup to the young lady.”
Bella sat across from Blanche, embarrassed, and didn’t know if they had heard those screams last night. She would feel simply humiliated if they had.
“Bella, don’t be embarrassed. I can well know the sweetness of your young couple’s new marriage.”
When Blanche said that, she was even more embarrassed, nodding, “Alright.”
“Quickly drink this soup to replenish the vitality, and later send a bowl of soup to your husband. I let him drink just now but he said he was in a hurry and left.”
Bella finished it in one gulp.
“I asked May to pack it up already. If you’re free, you can send it to him now, right?”
She smiled grudgingly, “Don’t bother. He’s got good energy.”
“Men also need to fill the body, in order to avoid the decline of body function.”
Lena was like her mother. Bella did understand why Lena was always gregarious, since she had inherited Blanche’s genes.
“Well, okay then.”
Bella picked a silver-white Mercedes from the garage. Kevin had ordered that from today onwards, she had to be a true rich lady, and couldn’t take a taxi. She didn’t dare to disobey his orders.
When Kevin arrived at the office, the way Alvin looked at him was simply creepy, “Why are you looking at me like that?” He asked in confusion.
“Honestly and frankly, did you not abstain from sex?”
“Do I need to be honest with you? Who’s the boss anyway?”
“You’re the boss, but only on business, and now I’m asking you privately if you’ve gone to bed with a woman or not?”
Kevin snorted, “Yes.”
“God, I knew you. Look at you with your indulgence, dull eyes, and weak body, I knew you have done it. Can you tell me about the process?”
“Have you been free lately? I think I might need to assign a little more work for you.”
“Okay, okay, let’s get down to business, shall we?”
Alvin followed him to the president’s office and reported respectfully, “The morning meeting was delayed by me until the afternoon because you, president, were addicted to a woman and didn’t show up in time.”
“Very well.”
Kevin opened the file in front of him and suddenly looked up again, “Addicted to what?”
“A woman.”
In order to avoid the possibility of being attacked by the file, once he finished speaking, he escaped right away.
When Bella rushed to the company, Kevin just entered the conference room. She was bored to sit in his office and waited for him for a full hour to end the meeting.
When he suddenly saw her, Kevin was quite appalled, “How did you come here?”
She pointed to the thermos by the table, “I’ll get you this.”
“What is it?”
Kevin lifted the lid and sniffed it, and frowned.
“Complement soup. It’s for you to improve your vitality.”
“Take it back. I won’t drink it.”
Bella glared at him, “You think I’m free, aren’t you? Mom told me to send it here, and you told me to send it back.”
“Then stay here if you don’t go back. I’m not drinking the soup anyway.”
“Why don’t you drink it?”
“Do you want to know?”
“Yes.” She blushed slightly.
He hooked his hand, “Come here.” She leaned in. “It’s so sexually stimulating. It won’t take you long to have a lot of children.”
“What?”
Bella was horrified, “But what if I drink it?”
“That’s why you’re an overly smart woman sometimes, and overly stupid sometimes.”
“How was I supposed to know Mom would aim at that?”
“So after taking a pill last night, shall you be smart today?”
“Last night… what happened last night?” She was a little out of words.
“Don’t tell me she didn’t give you the pills you took last night.”
Bella turned her back to him in shame, “I didn’t take it.”
“You’re still telling lies now. So who was it last night…”
“Okay, stop it.”
She covered her mouth nervously, “Walls have ears. Don’t make me lose face, okay?”
“So do you admit it?”
“It’s all in the past. Why do you keep bringing it up?”
She picked up the thermos, “If you don’t want to drink it, I’ll just take it back.”
“Wait a minute.”
Kevin pointed at the computer, “I’ll drink it as soon as I’ve finished this work at hand.”
“Aren’t you not going to drink it?”
She was speechless. He was always moody.
“For the sake of your hard work in bringing it here, it would be disrespectful not to drink it, not to mention that there’s no harm in it.”
“Don’t you want children?”
Bella didn’t want to say it, but she couldn’t control it.
“Who says I don’t want kids?”
She skimmed the door and lowered her voice, “Don’t you always… control birth?”
He giggled, got up, his arms around her waist, affectionately said, “That’s because I don’t want to get you pregnant this early, otherwise wouldn’t we be able to be as reckless as we were last night?”
She flushed to her ears and struggled to push him away, “I didn’t realize that you looked quite decent but was so filthy inside.”
“In terms of being decent, there was a guy last night…”
“Okay, don’t say that.”
She pinched him in shame and annoyance.
“Wait for me for a moment.”
As Kevin began to work in earnest, Bella stood watching and suddenly asked, “Are you guys going to develop a resort in Pueblo?”
He looked up, “Yeah, what’s wrong?”
“Who are you going to contract for this project?”
“You don’t want to persuade me to give this project to Wilson, do you?”
She was out of words, “If… if possible, I hope you can do that for once.”
Kevin thought, “Fine, I’ll give this construction right to your father for the sake of the first time you asked me for it, but don’t you hate your father quite a bit?”
“I…”
Bella didn’t know how to explain it, and she strangled her fingers, “I’ll explain that to you later, but for now, don’t ask.”
“Alright then.”
Kevin picked up the thermos in front of him, drank all the tonic soup inside in one gulp, and said painfully, “I never thought that Bella was so powerful that she could change such a principled Kevin.”
Bella kissed his cheek and said gratefully, “Thank you, dear. I will love you well.”
She picked up the thermos and walked away happily, and Kevin stared at her back warmly.
Out of the group building, she made a call to her father. It took a long time to get through, “Hello?” He sounded impatient.
“Dad, do you have time? Let’s meet up.”
“Didn’t you go abroad?” Wilson coldly questioned. Presumably, Gillian had explained her Bellation.
“I didn’t go abroad. I’m in B City. I want to discuss a deal with you. I don’t know if you’re interested.”
“What kind of deal?”
“Our hometown Pueblo is going to be developed into a resort by Kevin. If you’re interested in this project, then we’ll meet and talk about it in detail.”
Wilson was silent, and was obviously quite impressed with this profitable project. Bella knew that her father was a money grubber and directly told her the meeting address.
In the elegant environment of the tea house, Bella met her father earlier than expected. Once they met, there was no such common sense of closeness, but rather strange.
She also did not talk nonsense with him, directly cut to the chase, “I can help you obtain Pueblo’s construction rights, but you have to bring me the evidence that Gillian holds in her hands that threatens me.”
Wilson snorted, “Do you think I would be stupid enough to fall into the same trap?”
“This time we’ll make a fair deal. You bring me the recorder and I’ll meet you with the contract.”
Seeing that she looked serious, he raised his eyebrows, “Would Kevin put a project of that magnitude at your disposal?”
“You may not think it possible, but he has promised to give me. So I can give it to whomever I want.”
“Let me to think about it.”
“Well, give me your answer tomorrow.”
She stood up sharply and walked away gracefully, and Wilson looked askance out the window, staring at her, and couldn’t help but ponder, who was she like? She was so shrewd and sober.
Such a daughter couldn’t help but make him a little terrified, and he remembered that sinful scene from years ago…
Wilson hardly thought about it for long, and made the choice with the businessman’s profit-oriented nature. When he returned home that day, he came to Gillian’s room. In her drawer, he found the tape recorder, quietly pocketed it, then immediately called Bella, and only said, “Deal.”
For his choice, Bella was not surprised. She calmly said, “Good, then tomorrow morning, we will meet at the same place. I bring the contract, and you bring what I want.”
