Chapter 57 – Coffee
Bella had been gazing at the CCTV footage with her hands on her waist, scanning if there's anything strange before the incident, but the operator didn't know which day to begin repeating.
"Don't let anyone go. Please contact me right once if you discover anything "As she marched out of the room, she gave a firm command.
She overheard them say, "Yes, ma'am."
"Why are we making changes to our design when we've already been eliminated from the competition?" Stacy expresses her dissatisfaction with the other designers.
"Are you willing to admit that we did duplicate other people's designs?" Lucas confronted her directly.
"Remember that our names are also under La Bella's company, and we nee
"It came from your hubby," Julia explains. She confirms it with Stacy. She noticed how she nodded. "Thank you," she said as she sipped it while it was still hot. "Thank Mr. Wright, not us," Julia said quietly in her ear. She claps her hand to draw everyone's attention to herself. "First, let's hold a meeting," she says to Bella. "You should relax," she says, winking at her. "Where will the meeting be held, Ms. Julia?" Lucas is curious. "We'll be able to accomplish it here. It will be convenient for our President to listen in on our conversation "She stated this as she walked up to the board." Please have a seat." Bella has been listening to her designers' strategies, but she can't stop herself from falling asleep. She had finished her coffee, yet she is still feeling this way. "I can't slack off today, my workers and company need me," she reminded
It was the second day that Bella stayed in her company again. She was exhausted, confused, irritated, and enraged. Even if the investigation into the stolen blueprints has not been completed, her battling spirit is unabated. All of her staff had left, leaving her alone once more. It had been a long night for her as she continued to work on new products to release and try to sell online because no malls wanted to collaborate with them after the incident went viral. She was seated on her chair, looking at thecomputer screen, creating wonderful ideas, but the lovely moon she saw through the transparent glass window drew her attention. She was astounded by it. "The moon is very beautiful tonight," she heard her husband’s voice. She ignored him and continued to gaze up at the moon. Ezekiel was standing in front of the doorway and entered her office. He cast a peek towards the moo
"Who are you?" When she heard Ezekiel’s voice from behind, she turned around and faced him. She grins at him embarrassedly. She saw how astonished he was upon seeing his expression and he even dropped his phone on the floor "What exactly happened to you? How did you get here, and why are you dressed like this?" He stammered after regaining his composure. "Relax! It’s just my disguise and what’s wrong with my clothes?" She replied and observed her reflection in the mirror as she turned around while he picked up his phone and kept it in his coat. He sat on the chair near the wall and stared at her, "Why is your hair so short?" Bella giggles and removes the wig from her hair. "It's a fake. See?" She displayed it and placed it on top of the drawer. He gives her a nod, his attention fixed on his wife, and noticed the band-aid on her brows. He was still taken aback by her. He
Julia was looking at the handkerchief he was holding out to her. When he said, "take it," her gaze was drawn to the man's face.She takes it gravely and inadvertently brushes his finger. She feels electricity passing through her body, causing her to tense, causing the handkerchief to slide from her grasp and fall to the ground."You should be cautious, Julia," Li Na said. She bent to pick it up, but the man immediately grabbed it off the ground."I don't suppose it's usable," he adds as he puts it in his pocket and searches for something in his coat. "Here," Julia's friend smile as he hands her a tissue."Let me take it; she could drop it again," Li Na said, accepting the tissue for her buddy."Wo de tian a! (Oh My God!) I didn’t know that he was gentle, and maybe that’s why your heart fell for him, but sadly, I think he’s taken, "Li Na whispered to Julia,
"Someone’s POV"I will never stop ruining her company’s reputation and her dignity, even if she begs for forgiveness. After everything I had done for their firm, she just cast me out like garbage. I will not let that happen again. I'll make sure that I will grab all she has right now, and she will never be able to reclaim what she has lost.Her husband can’t help her out of this problem and they will never find out who did this to them. I chuckled evilly while waiting for someone I trusted in the coffee shop. I focused my eyes on the main door of the shop till the woman that I had been waiting for came."Hey, look at me!" I summoned her to see where I was seated. She took a step in my way."How are things going with you? I've been missing you terribly!" She welcomes me enthusiastically and hugs me tightly."I'm overjoyed because I'll finally tak
His attention was riveted on the computer screen, which was playing the news about his wife. Anyone who saw him would tell he was delighted by glancing into his eyes, even though he rarely smiled at others.-Flashback-"Luke, employ a private investigator to discover the perpetrator behind the situation with La Bella right away," he told his aide.After an hour, Luke met him in a cafeteria and introduce a private investigator, and plant her in the Classic Clothing Apparel Company to discover why they were using such dirty tactics against La Bella Corporation."Sir, I believe she can determine who is behind the theft of La Bella's ideas sooner," Luke reassured him, and she nodded in response to his words."That’s good! I would like to meet you every day to report to me directly what you have found out, "he declared.
"Ezekiel’s POV"After a long week of staying in my car every night and lying on a cold bench, I can finally fell asleep comfortably. I tried to lean my head on her shoulder, but she didn’t push me away."What are you thinking?" I asked her but I stayed with my head on her shoulder."I'm simply wondering why you helped me all of a sudden." She shifted her attention away from the window."I have responded to that in an interview. Have you seen it yet?" I had enquired. She did not reply and I heard nothing from her the whole drive back to our home.I spoke softly into her ear. I took my head off her shoulder. I was taken aback as she collapsed on the ground."Why did you push me?" she grumbled as she rubbed her buttocks."I didn't push you," I clarified. I extended my hand to her, but
"What do you think you're doing?" he said as he regained consciousness. She tossed herself onto the bed and landed on top of him."I'm playing a joke on you. Are you finding me attractive now?" She smirks as she removes her top, throws it up in the air, and falls to the ground."Will you try to bribe me because I'm not interested in you?" He challenged her while gently breathing and his heart throbbed loudly. His head was jumbled with ideas of what she would do to him.She winked at him with a grin. "Maybe I'll just attempt to turn you on," she admits.She gently runs fingers across his chest, down to his abdomen as she takes off a sheet that covered his undershorts. He senses a burning sensation within the body. He felt her warm hand resting on her waist as she smiled at him. Her legs accidentally brushed his blazing baton, causing him to develop a y
