380 Might Have Been Deceived

Before Bella didn’t show her capacity, although she sometimes did part-time job, it was only to sell milk tea, hand out leaflets, or work as a coffee shop girl.

Although she was hard-working, she couldn’t be seen any talent and ability.

But now Bella was confident and competent. Even she had not finished college yet, she was very professional in dealing with contracts.

Bella looked at him and smiled, "Human’s potential is infinite. Mr. Smith is also not only the son of the Smith, but aren’t you also be the president of Star International?!"

Martin praised her, it was a real admirer.

Bella’s words were clearly derogatory but said in a commendatory way. The Smith went bankrupt, as the son of the Smith, Martin was also involved, then he had to go to Star International. The job title was the president, but in the end, he was just a millionaire employee who worked for others.

Martin just pretended that he couldn't hear the irony in her words and looked at her with a very tolerant smile. "Yes, I used to be too self-righteous." Then he reached out to her and said, "I hope our cooperation goes well next."

"Have good cooperation." Bella then stretched out her hand to him. However, Charles had already grasped Martin's hand and said two words indifferently, "See you."

Martin was still not angry. He just nodded at her. "I hope we still have a chance to have dinner together."

"No." Charles refused directly.

Martin looked silently at Bella and saw that she did not say anything, then he knew that her heart was towards Charles. He stopped talking at the moment and left without saying a word.

From the beginning to the end, he did not show any bad and unhappy emotion.

Bella looked at the door thoughtfully, as if thinking hard about something.

"Oh? Are you repenting?" Charles said jealously.

Bella looked at him and joked, "Ouch, how could there be such a big vinegar smell in my office?"

"I'm jealous." Charles admitted very frankly, "I just can't stand the way he looks at you. I can't stand your reluctance."

"How do I look reluctant to let him leave?"

"If you are not reluctant, why do you stare at the door? You are reluctant to let him go." When mentioning this point, Charles's heart was sour to death by himself.

Bella did dare to stare at a man leaving in front of him for so long.

"Stupid!" Bella suddenly felt that the phrase "People’s IQ in love is zero" was applicable to all races. When smart people like Charles clung to their emotions, they would also neglect to discover the doubts in the incident.

"Don't you think Martin is very strange now?" Bella analyzed, "Martin has met me before he left Kingdom Z, and expressed regret. His attitude seems to be sincere. But now, he's just like another man. People’s nature is so difficult to change. Although he isn’t actually a bad man, he is not really a broad-minded man. I just said he didn't have the ability to ruin the Smith family. He wasn't angry at all, as if I wasn't talking about his family. It must be a pain if it happened to anybody, but he looked like he was totally fine. Don't you think it's very strange?"

"You really think so?" Charles raised his eyebrows. His lips raised an uncontrollable radian.

"Of course." Bella looked at him lightly and joked, "Do you think I'm you? No matter what Katherine did, you would never doubt her."

Charles heard her mentioning old things, he was somehow uncomfortable and said, "Bell, I am sorry. I used to think she was my lifesaver. I did a lot of bad things to you, I am really sorry.

Bella saw that he took it serious, naturally didn’t want him to feel embarrassed, "Well, I know. I'll let someone check Martin. Why does Star International, such a well-known international company, make Martin president? Moreover, William's Square has a better mass base than E&B. Why do they choose E&B instead of William’s Group? This is also suspicious."

Charles tightly encircled her in his arms and kissed her forcefully. "Bell, you are so smart. I'll check Martin for you.”

"Well, it’s my own business, I will handle it myself. I don't want to hide behind you and my brother all the time." Bella said, "Fine, you should go back. Otherwise I'll have to work overtime again tonight."

"Okay!" Charles poked her nose. "I'll pick you up after you finish the work."

"Nice."

Charles finally left.

In the afternoon, Bella let Quentin liquidate the liquidity funds on the head office's books, and transferred 5 million dollars to Charles.

Charles, who came to pick her up from work, was very unhappy and asked her, "Why do you want to pay me back? My money is your money."

"Business is business," said Bella.

Soon afterward, Bella’s private account received 5 million dollars transferred.

Charles laughed at her. "My private money is all yours."

Well, the glib tone in men's bones was the same.

Bella was speechless, but her heart was sweet as honey. Not because of 5 million dollars, but because of Charles's deliberate pleasant action. He was trying to make her happy, trying to show his kindness to her.

These things would never have existed before.

Back in the Peak Garden, Edwin told her Steven had woken up.

Without changing her clothes, Bella rushed directly into Steven's room. He was leaning against his pillow, looking carefully at the picture in his hand.

Bella recognized that it was the picture that he said no matter where he was, it would accompany him everywhere.

"Brother, why don't you eat?" Bella looked at a bowl full of chicken porridge on the cupboard and asked.

"I am not very hungry yet." Steven put the picture frame back on the cupboard, looked at her and smiled, "How are you today? There is so much work, do you feel tired?

Instead of asking if she could handle it, he asked if she was tired. It showed that he was not worried about her ability at all. This was a great trust for Bella.

Bella was more confident and told him about Martin. Steven was apparently more surprised than she was. "Is Martin the president of Star International? Two months ago, I met the president of Star International, it’s a foreigner named Joseph.

Bella’s face changed immediately, "How is it possible? He also brought the official seal of Star International.”

Her body suddenly became cold. No wonder Martin was weird. It turned out that he just came to cheat her this time.

"Brother, have I been deceived? I, why am I so stupid? I didn't even verify his identity. He has the contract and an official seal, then I believed him." Bella felt totally bad.

If the contract was canceled, E&B would have to pay a five-fold penalty, which was one billion dollars.

Bella didn’t care about money. She cared about the success that she was proud of was indeed a trap by the opposite.
