The morning sun was warm.
Bella woke up on her big and soft bed. She stuck out her perky little butt under the quilt and languidly
stretched her slender arms forward, looking like a sleepy kitten.
As usual, she put on a white sports suit and went kayaking on the lake in the backyard.
Steven was already dressed and waiting for his boss to come ashore with a water bottle in his right
hand and a clean towel draped on his right arm.
âAll the videos online regarding Bethany insulting our hotel employee have been deleted. The keyword
searches have also disappeared.â
Steven handed Bella a white towel and thoughtfully opened the water bottle for her. âAlthough there
has been some discussion about it online, those will be suppressed soon. Iâm afraid the matter will
fizzle out.â
âOf course. Salvador Corporationâs public relations team and legal team are second to none in Savrow.
Justin has bought them all over.â Bella panted lightly as she wiped the beads of sweat flowing down her
cheeks.
âSo, Justin Salvador asked them to delete those videos?â Stevenâs eyes widened.
Bella flicked her hair and tipped her chin up as she took a gulp of water. Her eyes were dark and
bottomless.
Although Bella was just drinking water, her slender neck was stretched out in a seductive arc, made
Stevenâs heart tremble.
which
âItâs human instinct to avoid calamities and seek advantages. Justin only cares about his interests.â
Bella raised the back of her hand to wipe away the water droplets on her lips. She laughed self-
deprecatingly and said, âIf only I had met him as a business rival first, I would never have fallen in love
with this man.â
She had met the wrong person at the wrong time.
Her love for Justin was completely incongruous with her values and principles.
âThen how do you plan to fight back next?â
Bellaâs harmless-looking eyes turned shrewd and cunning as she came up with a great idea.
âThat girl hasnât been discharged from the hospital yet, right? Letâs go to the hotel for the inspection
and the meeting, then weâll go to the hospital to see how sheâs doing.â
A few hours later, the hotelâs housekeeping staff, Skye, had been transferred to the general ward at
the Thompson Hospital. When Skye saw the general manager coming to visit her in person, she
hurriedly wanted to get up from the bed to greet Bella.
Bella hurriedly stepped forward to hold her down and said with a friendly smile, âLie down, Skye. You
donât need to be nervous. Your recovery is more important.â
âMs. Thompson⦠Iâm sorry for causing you trouble!â
Skye lowered her head in shame. âI didnât know that I had epilepsy. I didnât mean to hide my health
condition from the company⦠I really didnât know this would happen⦠Itâs all my faultâ¦â
âIâve checked your medical records and found that this is your first time having a seizure. You didnât
have this symptom before, so I know that you didnât hide it from your health declaration. Donât blame
yourself.â Bella smiled lightly.
âPlease deduct the hospitalization and medical bills from my salary.â
âNo need. This is considered a work-related injury, so the hotel will foot the bill for you.â
âThank you, Ms. Thompson.â Skye was so touched that tears welled up in her eyes.
âI came here this time to ask you something.â
Bella said in a solemn and soft voice, âWhat do you want to do about Bethany Salvador?â
âSheâs the daughter of the Chairman of Salvador Corporation, and Iâm a nobody. What can I do? I
noticed that all the videos online were deleted this morning. It seems that ordinary people like me donât
even have the power to speak out through the mediaâ¦â Skye lowered her head in frustration.
Bella narrowed her charming eyes and spoke in a resounding voice, âSalvador Corporation is robbing
you of the right to speak out, but I wonât.â
Skye stared at Bella in surprise. âYou want me toâ¦â
Bella said calmly, âIf you want Bethany to apologize to you, you will need to make this big. In turn, youâll
have more exposure, which will more or less affect your life. Iâm here to ask for your opinion on the
matter since you are the one most affected. Although I am your boss, I wonât do anything against your
wishes.â
âI⦠I want Bethany to apologize to me, even if itâs just in privateâ¦â
âNo, donât settle this privately. I want this to be made public.â Bella always spoke concisely and to the
point. She was never one to beat around the bush.
âYou⦠You want her to apologize to me publicly? How is that possible?â Skye gaped her mouth in
disbelief.
âSkye, Bethany will never settle this privately or apologize to you because she has humiliated you in
front of so many people.â
Steven said gently, âBethany will have no choice but to apologize to you if we force her into the public
eye.â
âForget it, Ms. Thompson. I donât want to cause trouble for the hotel.â Skye was frightened, and she
hurriedly shook her head.
âDonât be afraid. If Bethany dares to retaliate against you, she will be digging her own grave. I have my
own reasons to do this too.â
Bella smiled confidently. âIf you agree to have this made public, just leave it to me. I wonât let my
employees suffer in vain.â
She would not let Justin sweep this under the rug!
