In the CEO’s office of Quantum Capital on the 19th floor.
Bella was busy reading reports on her computer screen when she heard a knock on the door.
"Yes?" She responded without looking at the door.
"Boss, someone asked to see you," Leo’s voice came from the door, making Bella look at him with a frown. She saw Leo leaning on the door frame.
"Who?"
Bella remembered she didn’t have any appointments today because she had a lot of files to read from their other subsidiary company.
"Andreas Corby," Leo smiled when he saw her eyes widen. She appears suprised.
"Why did he come to meet me? He supposed to meet Mr. Sullivan, right!?"
"Yes, you’re right. However, after he found out that you were the one who gave orders to the legal team, he’s furious out there and insists on seeing you."
"How troublesome!" Bella shook her head, feeling annoyed. "Leo, you know this person doesn’t deserve to meet me, right?" She looked into Leo’s eyes.
"Indeed! But he’s so mad now, throwing a tantrum because Sam stopped him. Not letting that piece of trash into your office..." Leo chuckled as he walked in and casually sat down on the sofa. "Boos, do you want to meet him or not?"
Leo glanced at Bella, who walked to join him and then sat right before him.
Bella didn’t rush to answer Leo. After quietly and relaxedly settling on the single sofa, she asked, "Where’s Jack?"
"Sleeping upstairs. Looks like he’s tired after working late til the morning, online with another office in a faraway country with a very different time zone."
"So? That’s come within his responsibility. How dare he sleep while we’re working now?" Bella said as she took her cell phone and dialed Jack’s number.
"Hello," Jack’s hoarse voice came from the other end. "Bella...why did you wake me up so early?" He sounded annoyed.
Bella chuckled at his words.
"Geez...You should be embarrassed by the sunshine out there. It’s almost lunchtime, boss."
"Ugh! Bella, I got into my bed when the sun was just about to rise. I know, I know. It comes with the job. But please let me sleep for a few more minutes...hmm...?" Jack growls while burying his head under the pillow.
"Well, I’m sorry. You can’t sleep now, boss. Your brother-in-law is making a scene in my office. Please come here immediately to look after him, or I’ll call the police and throw him in jail!"
Beep!
Suddenly, the telephone connection was ended.
"Damn! He hung up?" Bella stared at her cellphone screen in disbelief. Just before, she wanted to call him again. An incoming message pops up on her phone screen. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
[Jack: ] Yea, yea. I will come down immediately.
