Eliaâs almond-shaped eyes gradually opened, feeling as if everything around her was fading. Itâs interesting that they think if I donât show them my power, they wonât back off.
Bella was discouraged that their big client, Ada Wang, had canceled the cooperation. However, what was most important at the moment was to find the traitor in the hotel. Otherwise, they would face even bigger problems.
Steven felt very uncomfortable seeing Bella worried. She gently placed the box on the table and walked out without looking back.
âItâs just trash now. Letâs go,â Bella said, urging Steven as they left.
As Steven and Bella left, a tall and upright figure walked in.
Lexin covered Bellaâs retreating figure with complex emotions in his starry eyes. âMr. Salvador, it seems the young madam will be very busy during this time. Itâll be difficult to meet with her.â
Justin was silent. He walked to the trash can, leaned over, and picked up the box that Bella had discarded without any care.
âMr. Salvador! Donât pick it up. Itâs too dirty!â Ian, usually a carefree person, couldnât stand the dirt.
Ian thought, When has the dignified and arrogant Mr. Salvador ever humbled himself like this? He shouldnât have picked it up, even if the young madam was the one who threw it away.
âItâs fine. Itâs not like I never did this kind of thing when I was a kid,â Justin spoke nonchalantly. He recalled the time he saw Bella in the kitchen carefully making this dessert and couldnât help but feel a surge of warmth in his heart. âLetâs go.â
Bella returned to the KS World Hotel and called all senior management and members of the wedding planning team to the conference room for an emergency meeting.
Everyone was furious when they heard that Ada Wang had canceled the cooperation. Seeing that their efforts were in vain, some even cried in exasperation.
Bella saw it and felt the same way. Her heart ached too. She was not afraid that the cooperation fell through, nor did she care that she had suffered a loss. What she feared most was the disappointment of her colleagues, who had worked hard with her.
âItâs alright. This isnât a big deal, and itâs not like weâre out of solutions. We will operate as usual, and please donât take it to heart,â Bella laughed heartily, her beautiful eyes arching into crescents. âDonât worry about the holiday I promised you all. Weâll still go ahead with it. Donât cry because of this. Itâs not your fault.â
However, everyone said they would cancel the holiday and devote themselves to work to make up for the losses.
After the meeting ended, everyone left. Steven looked outside to make sure no one was lingering behind before he closed the door of the conference room.
âMs. Bella, why didnât you tell them about the mole in the hotel while everyone was here?â Steven couldnât help but frown in confusion. âYou could put pressure on them, and Iâll observe their micro-expressions. That way, we can find out who the mole is!â
âTsk, youâre so naive, Steven.â Bellaâs fair arms naturally rested on the armrest of the leather chair. She spun around in circles and said, âSince this matter is widely known, do you think the traitor will be unprepared? They must assume that I wanted to discuss this in the meeting. But I didnât fulfill their wish and pretended not to care. That way, they wonât be able to predict my thoughts.â
Steven couldnât help but laugh. Bella was indeed a quirky person.
âSince the traitor has already succeeded in their plan and got away without getting caught, there is no point in putting pressure on them.â
Suddenly, Bellaâs beautiful eyes darkened. âWhat we have to do is make them let down their guard and think that nothing is wrong. Then weâll throw out the bait and let them bite it.â
âMs. Bella, I will check the surveillance cameras in a moment to see if any suspicious people have approached the wedding venue. In addition, I will investigate the account that exposed the photos to see who broke the news to them!â
Bellaâs narrowed eyes revealed a dangerous sense of oppression. âAlright. Go ahead.â
