Another long, deep breath was heard before Isaac explained everything to Bella.
"My Dear Bella, don’t be surprised. Your father and uncle have accepted the proposal through a business collaboration with fantastic value..."
Bella was shocked.
"Don’t worry about anything, dear. I’ll handle the matter here and return to the Capital in a few days. We’ll talk about it in detail later..."
Bella opened her mouth but failed to make a sound. She was too angry with her parents.
How could they do that to her?
They hadn’t told her directly about the engagement, but they had already agreed. They’ve even made a deal!
’Do they think of me as something that can be sold?’
For this matter, Bella decided not to take it easy. She can’t let them continue to plot nasty things behind her. It’s time for her to do something.
Bella will no longer consider them a part of her family because she has lost respect for her father and uncles for what they are doing now.
"Bella, my dear, are you still there?"
She snapped out of her thoughts, hearing her grandpa’s voice from the other end. Her grip on her cell phone tightened before she responded.
"Yes, I’m here. Grandpa, we will continue to talk about it when you return," Bella said calmly, even though she felt like a hurricane in her heart.
"Alright, I will settle the matter here faster and fly there. I need to talk to you about this matter directly, and I also need to meet my little Dax. He must be missing me, right…?"
Bella’s smile gradually appears after hearing her grandpa’s last words.
"Oh, yeah. Dax definitely misses you, Grandpa. When he woke up this morning, he immediately asked to visit you, but he was slightly disappointed when he knew you were not home."
Isaac was stunned.
He no longer feels the need to continue to talk with Bella about anything but ends the call to make a video call to his great-grandson.

Leo entered his office and headed to his desk.
However, his step stopped when he heard Dana’s voice from the seating area.
"Si-Sir, I’m sorry, I need to talk to you…"
Leo turned towards his secretary and was shocked to see her terrible expression. The cheerfulness and calm he used to see through her eyes were no longer there; only fear and confusion could be seen.
Curious to know what had happened, Leo immediately walked towards the seating area and sat across from her. After he placed his coffee on the table, he looked her in the eyes.
