She thought viciously that it was better for him to bite his tongue and kill himself.
When she went to work on Monday, Bella was surprised to meet Lily in front of the office. Lily looked at her sadly, holding her belongings in her hands, and Bella asked in confusion, “What are you doing?”
She didn’t know yet that Lily had resigned.
“Don’t pretend to be innocent.”
Lily glared at her in disgust and said, gritting her teeth, “Bella, I will prove that you will only bring trouble to Kevin, just you wait!”
Staring at her determined to leave the back, Bella was confused, but didn’t take it to heart, stepped into the lift.
Just that day at noon, the R&D team leader panicked because the confidential files kept in the computer had been lost, which was the R&D team’s hard work for two months. All of a sudden, the staff in the office exploded. Bella was the most anxious. She was scolded as a fickle woman by Kevin for launching the product as soon as possible!
“Aren’t all files encrypted? How could it be lost?”
“I don’t know! My computer is encrypted, not to mention the files, so we’re toast! How am I going to explain this to Mr. Jones-Sharp?”
The R&D team leader was pulling his hair in frustration and was going crazy with anxiety.
“Does anyone on your computer know the password?”
“Yes, Lily, Mr. Jones-Sharp’s secretary, knows.”
Lily …
Bella was shocked, “Oh no, Lily has left this morning. It looks like she quit!”
“What?”
The colleagues were even more devastated. Just when everyone was talking about it, Bella angrily rushed into Kevin’s office.
She heavily slapped her hands to Kevin’s desk, sulkily roared, “What employees are you looking for? Don’t you even know them before you hire them?!”
“What’s wrong?”
Kevin looked up and asked calmly.
“Lily stole the data of our new product development and has left this morning. You quickly try to find her!”
She thought that Kevin would be furious when he heard the news, but didn’t expect him to still be calm, “It’s not a big deal. Let her go. It happens that you can also go to unfold it all to Quintin.”
Bella almost got hot under the collar, “Why are you still joking about it? This is a new product that is crucial to your company to enter the overseas market, so how can you treat it so carelessly?”
“Don’t worry. It’s stolen, but it doesn’t necessarily mean it will be leaked to our peers. How can you not be a little risk-taking in business?”
“If she doesn’t want to leak it to your peers, would she have stolen it to eat!”
Thinking Lily’s hostile eyes at her this morning and the words she said, she began to get the shakes just. Did she really implicate Kevin to be betrayed?
She was suddenly very sad.
The more worried you were, the more likely it would happen. On the third day of everyone’s apprehension, a company called Pegasus Group suddenly announced to hold a press conference to release their new products officially on the market.
What was unacceptable to Bella was that the head of this company was Celeste.
Lily still leaked trade secrets out to Celeste, whom Kevin took as his number one enemy.
Bella was going crazy as Kevin was still indifferent these days. It seemed that as long as she could draw a clear line with Quintin, he didn’t care about his company’s loss.
Celeste was the first to register the product name. All the staff of the R&D department was very puzzled why the president didn’t launch the product ahead of time on that day the confidential documents were leaked? Instead, he was indifferent about others stealing the results of their efforts. To be honest, they were really very dissatisfied and frustrated.
So, Bella gave Kevin the silent treatment for three days because she couldn’t accept that he disregarded the results of everyone’s efforts because of his own selfishness.
On this day, Kevin suddenly called Bella to his office and said to her, “I’ll take you somewhere.”
“Where?”
She asked angrily.
“Go there and you’ll know. I guarantee to make you ecstatic.”
Bella originally didn’t want to go, but also want to know what Kevin planned to do, so she followed him to go.
When she arrived at her destination, she realized that Kevin had actually brought her to the product launch site of Pegasus Group.
Bella saw Celeste in the high spirit and was simply furious. When she wanted to go, Kevin dragged her.
“The good show hasn’t started yet. What’s the hurry?”
She stood patiently for a while, but just when she was discouraged, an unexpected thing happened. Celeste held a press conference to show a product very different from what Bella and her colleagues designed. She was stunned and confused. The name of the product was exactly the same, but why would it be completely different?
What surprised her, even more, was that a group of police rushed in and arrested Celeste for business fraud when the conference progressed halfway. Only then did Bella understand that the new product released by Celeste had been registered and released by another company four years ago, but also until that moment, Celeste only know that she was duped.
She followed the police to the door, and when she passed by Kevin, she gritted her teeth and said, “It is my miscalculation this time, but do you think this will screw me? You underestimate me. We’ll see.”
On the way back, Bella had mixed feelings and asked Kevin with a sidelong glance, “What the hell is going on? I’m simply confused.”
“I just set a trap. Celeste has been to France before and not familiar with the domestic market. The product she released today was already a sensation here four years ago, but she was too eager to defeat me, so she released it without understanding it well.”
It turned out to be like that, but she was still confused, “So doesn’t Lily know about this?”
“How could she not know? She was completely under my orders.”
“Then Celeste will definitely not let her go this time if she gets out of the jaws of danger.”
“Lily will be leaving the country in a few days. Even if Celeste has a grudge, she will target me and will not waste her time on someone who has lost her value.”
“Why do you want to provoke her? She is not easy to deal with.”
Bella unknowingly showed her concern for Kevin.
“Two years ago, if it wasn’t for her taking advantage of Freya’s ignorance to cause trouble, why would you and I have come to this point? And she relates to my father’s death. The hospital’s surveillance video showed her as the last person to enter his room that day. Less than half an hour after she came out, the nurse found my father was dying. Do you think she had nothing to do with my father’s death?”
Bella didn’t speak. Celeste’s various actions were indeed abhorrent.
“But she has a very wide network of connections in the past two years. I’m afraid this incident can’t do anything to her.”
“I know it can’t do anything to her, but after this incident, her reputation in the marketplace is notorious enough. She caused my family to fall apart. I have my own way to destroy her a little bit.”
The colleagues heard the good news that Bella brought back and was very happy. Kevin came to the R&D department, apologized, and said, “I’m really sorry for letting you experience a false alarm. It’s my treat tonight to make up for the destruction of your hearts.”
Oh yeah–
In the midst of a cheer, Bella met Kevin’s eyes where the tenderness made her moved.
In the evening, after dinner, they came to the nightclub. Now they were very conscious to go to sing after dinner. Sitting in a spacious box, Bella was chatting with female colleagues. Suddenly the waiter came in and handed her a convenience strip. She looked carefully and became quite appalled, got up, and went out.
She went to the next box and pushed open the door. There was only one person, Lily who left her a message.
“Why don’t you go over and hang out with the guys?”
Knowing that Lily hadn’t betrayed Kevin, Bella somehow felt much more agreeable seeing her.
“No, I just want to have a few words with you alone. I’ll leave after that.”
Bella sat down, “What do you want to say?”
“I want to say that I hate you coming back so suddenly, and I also want to be a mistress like Freya to ruin your relationship with Kevin, but then I thought about it and gave it up. Kevin is my benefactor, so I can’t be ungrateful. More importantly, I don’t want to end up like Freya, being so tragic. No one should have the luxury of defeating true love. ”
Lily finished, as if she relieved, “Well, I’ll leave tomorrow, and what I want to say is finally finished. I wish you guys happiness, though I’m still a bit unhappy.”
Oh, she smiled, turned around, and walked away proudly.
This was why a woman as smart as she didn’t blindly pursue something that didn’t belong to her. Lily understood the truth that true love couldn’t be defeated while Freya didn’t understand and was tragic, so she was destined to bring destruction on herself, and in the end, she hurt others and hurt herself.
Then suddenly Bella was in a very good mood and decided to go back to feast on Kevin tonight.
The goal had not yet succeeded, and she still needed to work hard. She walked out while clenching her fist, “Come on, Bella.”
