For some reasons, her mother had yelled at her quite a few times since Bella was young. Her father was busy with his career outside. Although he had not treated her badly in material terms, his moral support for her was limited. Bella's cowardice and fear of making mistakes when she did things were all due to the lack of love from her parents.
"Mr. William, why are you treating me so well? Am I worth it?" Bella held back her tears and turned her face out of the window, feeling that she was not worthy of such a good treatment.
"I just want to help you face your unknown fear. Bella, if one loves a person, he wants to give her enough sense of security. When your heart becomes stronger, the external damage to you will become smaller and smaller. I don't want to see you panic helplessly anymore." What Ben said was the truth. From the very beginning, he sympathized with her, pitied her, and felt that she was like an abandoned kitten.
Bella seemed to see a glimmer of hope, and her eyes were lit up.
"No one has ever told me to be stronger." Bella muttered.
"Alright, I've decided. I can help with your friend's work, but you … you must come to my company. No matter what you do here, I can help you and take care of you." Ben said domineering and resolute.
"Um, OK, I will come." Suddenly, Bella was no longer afraid of the man sitting opposite her. She firmly believed that every word he said today was not for the sake of deceiving her, but all about his sincerity.
"Only then are you obedient." Seeing that she was no longer entangled, Ben was secretly happy.
When Bella heard his doting words, she subconsciously lowered her head in embarrassment and adjusted the hair falling from her ear.
Lunch was served. It was delicious and sumptuous. Of course, the price was definitely not low.
But Bella was confident that she could spend money in such a place because she still had a lot of pocket money.
However, when the time to pay the bill came, the man had already paid quickly, making it difficult for Bella to do so.
"My company often organizes staff to come here for dinner. All expenses are reimbursed by the company." Ben smiled and explained when he saw that she was so anxious that her face turned red.
"We agreed that it is my treat." Bella pouted her lips, still feeling a little guilty.
"There are still plenty of chances to treat me in the future. Just forget this time." Ben chuckled. Then, he gave Bella a phone number, "Ask your friend to contact my assistant and see if there is any position suitable for her."
Bella nodded gratefully, "Alright, thank you for this."
"Don't forget our agreement." Ben's gaze was filled with deep meaning.
Bella's heart warmed up. Was this an agreement?
Back at school, Ada came to her. Bella told her that Ben had agreed to arrange work for her. Ada's heart was filled with joy, but very quickly, her expression changed again.
Ben agreed to Bella's request, which meant that there was a place for Bella in his heart.
Ada knew that the way she thought like this was very vicious, but as a saying goes, "Every man is for himself, unless Heaven and Earth will destroy him." From childhood until now, she needed to snatch whatever she wanted, like love and care, from others. She knew how the adults thought from a young age. She would always become especially obedient when she followed her cousin to her grandparents' house for dinner. So, her grandparents also took care of her more.
To get everything through her own means, in Ada's eyes, was a kind of ability. As for immorality, she didn't care. When a person succeeded, others would only see his brilliance. Who would think about the way she became such a successful person?
