Henry staggered backward and nearly stumbled over.
âWe have witnesses and proof. Do you have anything to say for yourself?â
Stevenâs eyes turned bloodshot at the thought that the mole had caused Bella a lot of pain. He had
envisioned several scenarios in hist mind about killing Henry.
âI have nothing to say.â
Although Henry was scared, his love for Xena Gordon helped him. overcome his ear. He stood tall and
faced Bella and Steven. âI stole the proposal and sold it to the media. I did everything, and I will accept
the consequences.â
By accepting the consequences, he meant he would never rat Xena out.
Henry refused to budge, so Steven was livid and tempted to punch Henry in the face.
âSteven and Henry, please stay back. Everyone else, please wait in the corridor.â Bella, who had
remained silent thus far, spoke with authority.
The security team swiftly moved out of the office.
âI can be honest with you, Henry.â
Bella strolled to a sofa to sit down. She grabbed a piece of chocolate from the plate and unwrapped it
before putting the piece in her mouth. âThereâs no new proposal right from the start. I never asked Ada
to meet with meâ
âW-What did you say?â Henry was shocked.
Bella chuckled. âTake a look if you donât believe me.â
Henry opened the proposal with shaking hands. He sweated profusely.
The first page had words on it, but the next few were blank pages.
Henry just admitted a crime to a group of people. Steven even recorded his testimony.
Bella tricked him, and he fell for it!
âHow did you know it was me?!â
After everything that happened, Henry did not have to play nice with Bella anymore, so he got straight
to the point. He needed to know why before he was taken away.
âKS World Hotel is impenetrable unless we have a mole among us.
Bella chewed on the chocolate. âI knew we had a rat in the project team once the first proposal was
leaked out, so I had eyes on each one of you. You were able to keep it together and stay out of
suspicion by keeping your distance from Xena. I believe you would have succeeded if I hadnât lured
you out.â
âYou know about Xena? How do you know?â Henry was more concerned about his girlfriend than his
current predicament.
âDonât forget who Ms. Thompson is.â Steven smirked, finding hist question silly.
Henry drooped his shoulders in despair,
The heiress of the KS Group was blessed with wealth and resources. There was nowhere Xena could
run.
The enemy was far too powerful.
âYouâve worked for KS World for ten years, Henry. You were dedicated to the company, planning many
high-value events. Youâre a talented man. I was going to promote you to the chief of the planning
department at the end of the year.â Bella sighed in regret.
Henry was taken aback.
âYou threw your future away because of so-called love, and youâre facing charges. Do you think itâs
worth it?â
âYes! I love her. Iâm willing to do anything for her.â
Henryâs eyes turned menacing as he jolted forward.
Bella remained composed.
Startled, Steven jumped out to shield Bella.
âBella Thompson! Donât pretend to be the good guy here!â
Henry looked Bella dead in the eye, seeking justice for his lover. âI donât need your promotion.
Everything I did was to help Xena get her revenge! Xenaâs dad is in jail because of you! You destroyed
Xenaâs life! You God-forsaken capitalist! You got off easy by losing one deal. The way I see it, you
deserve to die!â
