The Temptation of Adultery 2 Chapter 44
Chapter One Hundred Thirty-Six“Have a good day, Mr. William.”After seeing the bank director out, Mr. William gazed into the void with dark, helpless eyes. The moment the bank director personally came to his house, he had already known what had happened. But standing between his career, the many employees depending on him, and his only daughter, he could choose only one. Or rather, he had been pushed into a fait accompli by his daughter and that dangerous man, he was allowed to choose only one.Henry also understood what was going on, but in this situation, what could he possibly do? He sat across from his father, yet neither of them spoke. The gloomy, heavy atmosphere was filled with nothing but sighs.“Henry, do you think this is really okay?” Mr. William kept his head lowered; at this moment, he did not even have the strength to lift his teacup. He truly wanted an answer different from what was unfolding before them.Henry knew what his father was thinking. But with his own abilit
The Temptation of Adultery 2 Chapter 43
Chapter One Hundred Thirty-FiveRight after Bella finished speaking, the entire room fell into silence. The gloom in the air made her already tense mood grow even heavier. When Levi didn’t respond, she looked up at him in confusion only to meet his unblinking stare.The man’s eyes were dark and unfathomable, his face utterly devoid of emotion. There was no surprise, no amusement, no provocation. He was like a meticulously sculpted statue, carved without a trace of feeling.Bella felt the fine hairs on her body stand on end. She had never seen Levi in such a strange state before. With no emotion reflected on his face, she had no way of guessing what he was thinking.“W-What?” Bella asked hesitantly, avoiding his eerie and abnormal gaze.Only then did Levi’s eyes shift. A faint smile curved on his lips, as if he were very satisfied with Bella’s blunt answer. He stood up, walked to his desk, retrieved a stack of documents, and handed them to her. Though she had no idea what they were, sh

Chapter One Hundred Thirty-FourWhen Bella first arrived, she was full of confidence and determination. But the moment she stepped through those grand doors, all her bravado drained away. A chill spread through her body, and she felt uneasy and restless.“This is my second time here… what should I call you?” Bella tried to make conversation to ease her own tension and the heavy atmosphere.The housekeeper did not turn around. Her cold, emotionless gaze remained fixed ahead, yet she replied respectfully, “Madam may call me Wong. I have been the housekeeper here… for many years.”“My name is Bella. You can just call me by my name,” Bella said, feeling that the elderly housekeeper’s form of address was overly formal and polite.Bella’s words were merely casual courtesy, but the housekeeper did not take them that way. She stopped walking and turned to look at Bella, making her slightly uneasy.“Madam, I cannot address my master by her name directly. That would be disrespectful and against

Chapter One Hundred Thirty-ThreeOriginally, neither of them wanted Bella to get involved in this matter, let alone participate in it. From the very beginning, Mr. William had kept it hidden, doing everything he could to prevent any information from leaking out. He handled it so well that even Henry, the person closest to him, knew nothing about it.Mr. William knew very well that the power in his hands could resolve this crisis. But he was too old now; there were things he could no longer devote himself to as he once did.Moreover, the internal problems alone were already enough to give him a headache. Over the past one or two years, Mr. William’s health had clearly declined. Although he never let anyone know about his condition and always appeared strong and healthy, his pretense might deceive others, but it could not fool the old foxes who had weathered countless storms alongside him.All of them were eyeing the seat he occupied.Perhaps amid the company’s internal conflicts, espec
The Temptation of Adultery 2 Chapter 40
Chapter One Hundred and Thirty-TwoIn stark contrast to the exhaustion and helplessness weighing on both her father and Henry, Bella found the condition that she marry Levi to be utterly ordinary. Among the upper class, contract marriages were far from rare no romance, no love, only alliances of interest and the stabilization of power.According to her father, Levi had once nearly swallowed up the family company, which showed that his influence was far greater than she had imagined. In that case, her marriage to Levi would naturally benefit both the company and herself.Bella was fairly confident about this. Whether it came to divorce or work, Levi had always been the one to help her, the one who backed her up. Although she could not deny that his personality was abnormal, the good things he had done for her were indeed numerous. He had even been willing to stand behind her and let her do whatever she pleased.“Marriage is just marriage. He has that kind of power if all it takes is fo

Chapter One Hundred Thirty-OneHenry shook his head lightly. This was Bella’s private matter, and he truly did not know how to bring it up, nor did he have the standing to interrogate her. He also knew that she did not believe him, and he could tell she was trying to skirt around the issue to deny the relationship between herself and Levi.But seeing the problem did not mean being able to solve it.“Then… Levi, Levi has he done something to our company? Has he caused some kind of trouble?” Bella asked cautiously.Henry shook his head again. He himself did not know the details; he had only heard rumors that the matter was connected to Levi Karter.“Wait for now. After dad finishes his business, we’ll ask him,” Henry said wearily.The atmosphere in the room gradually grew heavy and tense. Bella had never seen Henry like this before, and the words she had intended to say were forced back down her throat. Neither of them spoke another word. Silence enveloped everything, and Bella had neve
