Belle didn't avoid it. She wrapped her arms around his neck and stayed on her tiptoes to welcome the kiss.They kissed for a while before Belle pulled away and asked him with a red face, "Are you feeling better?""Yeah. I feel so much better that I'm suddenly in the mood to take you to the break room," Grayson replied in a raspy voice."No! It's still working hours. You have to earn enough money to support the family!"After that, she kissed him briefly and lightly on the lips again before worming out of his embrace. "Okay. It's time to go back to work. You can do this!"She scurried off to her desk and sat down.Grayson looked at her with a smile. His mood had lightened considerably because of her.After Grayson was back at his desk, Belle continued observing him sneakily. She liked him and didn't want him to be unhappy.She felt a weight lift off her shoulders once she was sure he was no longer stressed out and was back to work.She began to focus on her own work.She had p

Without waiting for Ginger's reply, the female colleague said, "Also, I heard that you've been here for three years without a single promotion. What a coincidence that you got a raise and a promotion the moment you got close to Belle. You're a real genius, Ginger."Ginger's face was red with anger. She suppressed her rage and said, "You should take a page out of my book and figure out a way to get a raise and promotion too, then."The female colleague looked at her in disdain. "I'm talented and have a good skill set. Why would I need to go through such a cheap, dishonest way?""Then keep your insults for when you get that promotion, okay? I'm your boss right now.""Boss? That depends on whether or not I actually see you as one. I only look up to someone if they're skilled enough to deserve it."Ginger replied coldly, "Mr. Page selected me personally, and I passed a series of thorough tests from the company, who then officially signed off on the decision. If you don't want to admit

Gabriel said, "With Belle's temper, I'm sure she wouldn't let that colleague go so easily."Ginger continued to eat her lunch as she said, "I haven't brought this up to Belle yet. She's pretty busy recently and rarely at the company these days, so she might not even have noticed this new girl."Gabriel knew Belle must be stressing out over Mount Moriah and the clinic, so he asked, "So that colleague is new here?""Yeah. She's only been here for a month or so. She's a real busybody."Gabriel narrowed his eyes, seeming to think about something.Ginger said, "Don't worry about me. I've hardened up after so many years in the industry. I know how to face people like her."Gabriel stopped his train of thought and nodded. "Okay."At that same moment, Belle and Grayson had reached the restaurant. Grayson passed the menu to Belle. "What do you want to eat?"Belle studied the menu closely. "It's my first time here. What are their signature dishes?""You can look at the uppermost dishe

"You just mentioned it. He's a business partner, and when he reached Maltford two days ago, he pretended he was sick from the flight. He didn't meet Grayson at the company as planned, so Grayson asked me to visit him. He threw a fit when he saw that I was there instead of Grayson."Belle couldn't understand. "What does that mean? Did he want to see Grayson or not?""He did.'""If he did, then why did he blow Grayson off? Why didn't he just meet Grayson at the company as planned?"Simon replied, "He wanted to meet Grayson in the hotel.""Huh? The hotel? Why did he have to meet Grayson in the hotel?""I don't know the exact reason behind it. Both Sam and I went, and he asked us where Grayson was. Sam said Grayson was busy with work at the company, and Carthus threw a fit. He exploded and yelled at us for a long time.""He's actually insane," Belle marveled."Yeah. He should be locked up.""Apart from business partners, have they been involved in any other way before this?" Belle

Grayson was visibly annoyed about Carthus.The phone on the table started ringing before he could reply. He took a look at the caller ID and frowned."You should pick it up. We can talk later," said Belle."Yeah."Grayson picked up the phone and left the room, holding a cigarette and a lighter in his other hand.Belle remained seated at her workstation. She frowned as she watched Grayson leave.Obviously, he needed a smoke to vent his frustrations a little.Grayson knew that Belle hated the smell of cigarettes and would never smoke it with her inside the room.Noticing the cigarette and lighter in his hands, Belle recalled how he used to smoke on the terrace back home with a frown.Just what did Carthus do to make him so pissed off?She became curious about Carthus and began to look up any information about him online.She finished her first attempt at gathering information about him and found nothing noteworthy.Carthus was the favorite child of a tycoon from Krowdon.
