Chapter 72

“Why did you agree to move here? Did you fight with Jack?” she asked earnestly. Bella thought that was the only reason that could make Leo leave the head office to move here.

“It looks like Jack hasn’t told you—” Leo sighed deeply.

“So you did fight with him?” Bella was suprised. She is starting to be afraid what she said was true.

Leo shook his head before saying, “Of course not. I just broke up with my girlfriend. I couldn’t stay there because she would come back after me, so I immediately agreed when Jack offered me to become your assistant p>

Bella, p>

She didn’t expect him to move here just because of his breakup.

Gosh, this man was odd.

Bella can’t send him back to New York now. She had only prepared herself to work with him.

’Ugh… well… at least you no longer see him like you did a few years ago. Just bear with his eccentric personality, and you will be fine She reminded herself.

“And you, why you suddently return to the company?” Leo narrowed his eyes at her.

He knew Bella never wanted to be involved in management because she had a rich husband. That’s why she always refused to come back.

However, two years ago, he heard she finally agreed to return and take over their business in this country.

“Because that foolish Jack forced me Bella wanted to say that but stopped, remembering that Leo would lecture her with his wisdom. Gosh!

She smiled at him before asking, “You know I’m a single mother, right p>

Leo’s calm expression changed instantly. He sat up straight and looked at Bella in shock. “Y-You… you have a child p>

“Hmm, I have a son. That’s why I need to earn money. And Jack offered me a decent amount of money to care for our business in this country. So yeah—” She didn’t continue her words, just shrugged her shoulders with a faint smile across her face.

Leo was lost for words hearing that. He knew that Bella was divorced but had never heard that she actually had a son with her ex-husband.

He narrowed his eyes, trying to understand her feelings now. But looking at how calm she was caused him to be curious about something. After a while, he asked, “Wasn’t your ex-husband wealthy? Why did you divorce him p>

“Yeah, he is indeed super rich,” Bella said, slightly shaking her head. She didn’t want to talk about Tristan now. “Leo, even though my ex was wealthy, it wasn’t the reason for me to stay with him if we had no destiny to be together. I didn’t need his wealth to raise my son. Because I can earn myself p>

“No. That’s not what I mean,” Leo stopped her. “—if you had a child, why divorce? Did he mistreat you p>

“Leo, can we drop talking about this?” Bella faintly said. Then, she took a deep breath to lessen her tightened chest. “Let’s talk about the company. Give me a summary of what you found in a few days of working here p>

Leo’s angry expression returned to calm. His professional attitude no longer overshadowed his annoyance hearing that one of his best friends seemed to have been hurt by her ex-husband.

He began to tell Bella what he had discovered working five days at this company.

So many problems he found occurred in this company, causing it never to achieve the target from the main office, even though it has been here for more than six years.

Bella listened to Leo’s report seriously. Before long, Leo finally finished his report.

“Look like the problem here was the same as I predicted Bella said softly.

“Indeed. There are too many corrupt executives in Quantum Capital. And, as the new CEO of Quantum Capital, you will have a hard time dealing with them p>

“I know. I already predicted that—” Bella smiled bitterly. From Jack’s report, she could see this company seems to have many problems.

“Boss, don’t worry… I’m here to help. Let’s clean up this sick company and make Jack happy,” Leo said confidently.

“Hahaha, you’re right. Ah, Leo… can you give me a complete report on the problematic subsidiary? I want to learn it before my official meeting with the Directors p>

“I’ve put it on your desk. You can read it p>

“Thank you.” She said while standing from her seat to check the report.

“Bella, about your apartment upstairs, I actually moved in there. Because Jack said you wouldn’t use that place. I hope you don’t mind p>

She glanced at Leo, “Sure, you can stay there. I indeed decided to stay with my grandpa. What about my driver p>

“He will come today. You can talk with him later p>

“Thanks,” Bella said. Then, she dismissed Leo to leave her alone.

After she saw Leo leave the room, she started reading all the reports on her desk.

However, it didn’t take long before Bella was surprised by what she found out. They have a subsidiary company named Stellar Entertainment.

What surprised her even more was when she saw the name of one of the talents in the company, that homewrecker, Laura Kiels. Bella couldn’t help but laugh to find this.

’How could that woman work in my company?’ She hadn’t predicted this. She thought a top supermodel turned movie star came from a powerful Entertainment agency. Still, it turned out Stellar Entertainment founded her.

“Gosh! This would be funny if I confronted her, right!? Ugh, if I did that, someone would be angry Her mind is naturally filled with Tristan; he might be angry if she confronts his woman.

Bella shook her head slightly, trying to dismiss Laura Kiels and Tristan from her mind. She continued to check why Stellar Entertainment never achieved its target when they had supermodel and top movie star Laura Kiels as their talent.

She was immersed again in reading the report.

Too serious with her work till she forgot about time. She even forgot about lunch and only got up from her chair after she heard a knock on the door.

“Yes,” Bella said, stretching her hand while gazing at the door.
