Chapter One Hundred Twenty-One

As Bella changed her clothes, she muttered curses under her breath, calling Levi shameless. He was clearly teasing her, but despite her displeasure, she could only ignore it. After all, this wasn’t the first time. Even though she didn’t know much about him, after spending so much time together, she could more or less guess his personality.

While she was fumbling with the zipper at the back of her dress, she suddenly felt warm breath against her ear. Before she knew it, Levi was already standing right behind her. His hot breath brushed against her face, making Bella shiver involuntarily.

A large, slightly rough hand touched her back and carefully pulled the zipper up for her. It only took a few seconds, but Bella felt incredibly flustered. Her cheeks flushed as she murmured softly, “Thank you.”

“I don’t accept mere words of thanks,” Levi said with a chuckle, tightening his arms around Bella’s slender waist. “If you want to thank me, you’ll have to show it

    Chapter One Hundred and TwentyLevi didn’t agree to his father’s request; he only smiled faintly and said, “Perhaps he already knows. Even though we haven’t contacted each other for a long time, he still knows quite a lot about me, doesn’t he?”The housekeeper spoke slowly, “No matter what, he is still your father. He still cares about you.”Levi chuckled softly. “Is that so? He cares about me? Ha… cares about me?” His displeasure was clear in his tone.The housekeeper pressed her lips together and lowered her head, not daring to breathe too loudly. Despite the age gap, she had never dared to speak much in front of the young master. The older he grew, the more he resembled his father—his mannerisms, his gaze, and even his words were cold and sharp, making it difficult for anyone to approach.She was about to quietly leave, but as soon as she took a step back, she heard him speak. “How old are you this year?”“I… I’m seventy years old.” The housekeeper was a bit surprised by the questi

    Chapter One Hundred NineteenAlthough Bella was also a wealthy young lady, she felt incredibly small in this mansion. After Levi brought her to this room, he told her to wait and then left. Bella glanced around; though the room appeared quite old, everything was impeccably clean and gleaming."Perhaps the housekeeper meticulously cleaned this place. The fact that she can manage such a huge mansion all by herself is truly impressive," Bella murmured to herself in admiration. However, she couldn’t shake off the discomfort she felt when looking at the housekeeper. To be precise, the elderly woman seemed rather frightening.Everything in this room was ancient. The patterns and designs all indicated that they had been crafted many years ago. Not only the mansion but even the furniture inside bore traces of time.Bella didn’t dwell on it too much. She simply assumed that since the Levi family was an old and powerful lineage—perhaps second only to the royal family—it was natural for them to

    Chapter One Hundred EighteenBella pressed her lips tightly together, clenched her teeth, and gripped her hands, but she didn’t dare show any dissatisfaction or discomfort in front of Levi. She forced an awkward smile."You really know how to joke. So, which part of the project are you dissatisfied with? Just say the word, and I’ll revise it to your liking. The contract too—what part doesn’t meet your expectations?"Levi was very patient. He clearly saw Bella’s reluctance and frustration but still listened to everything she said. He stood close to her, narrowing the distance between them, while Bella could only sit still, unable to move away."So as long as I say the word, you’ll do as I please? Is that what you mean?" Levi chuckled as he looked down at Bella.Bella felt she could no longer keep up her forced smile. She said, "That’s right, in the contract—"Before she could finish, he interrupted her, "Then let me take you home. Would you accept this simple request of mine?"The mome

    Chapter One Hundred SeventeenAnd obviously, their conversation led nowhere. Bella returned home in an irritated and frustrated mood, yet there was nothing she could do about it. She angrily slammed her fist against the steering wheel."That shameless bastard! Is he insane or what? What does he want from me, clinging to me like a leech?"Levi was always like this. Now, he acted as if nothing had changed between them. No, to be precise, he acted as if she belonged to him. He always did whatever he pleased, completely ignoring Bella’s unwillingness.Just earlier, Levi had simply smiled, unfazed by Bella’s scolding. He said, "Are you free tomorrow night? Ever since I saw you at that bar, I haven’t gone back there. We should—""Enough! I’m not as idle as you. Tomorrow night, I have an important meeting with a business partner. And right now, I’m already wasting my precious time on someone as unreasonable as you," Bella cut him off, not caring about his expression as she grabbed her bag an

    Chapter One Hundred SixteenAssistant Kim's question made Bella's mind freeze instantly. She looked up and asked, "What do you mean?""Possessiveness is something inherent in every person and every living creature. Even the smallest things, like keeping one's belongings, stem from possessiveness. The concept itself is simple, but when it reaches an extreme, higher and higher, there’s no way to escape or control it. The man you are trying to avoid and run away from, I’m afraid..."Assistant Kim stopped mid-sentence and stared at Bella. Even though she didn’t finish her words, both of them knew exactly what she was implying.At first, it seemed like Assistant Kim was giving a general example, but in the end, it pointed directly at Bella. Of course, Bella understood what she meant, but the phrase "no way to escape" seemed like an exaggeration.It was true that she wanted to avoid that man. It was true that he refused to end things cleanly with her. But it wasn't to the extent of being co
