Chapter 418
Henry staggered backward and nearly stumbled over.
“We have witnesses and proof. Do you have anything to say for yourself?”
Steven’s 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.
“I have nothing to say.”
Although Henry was scared, his love for Xena Gordon helped him. overcome his ear. He
stood tall and faced Bella and Steven. “I stole the proposal and sold it to the media. I did
everything, and I will accept the consequences.”
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.
“Steven and Henry, please stay back. Everyone else, please wait in the corridor.” Bella,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwho had remained silent thus far, spoke with authority.
The security team swiftly moved out of the office.
“I can be honest with you, Henry.”
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. “There’s no new proposal right from the start. I never asked
Ada to meet with me”
“W-What did you say?” Henry was shocked.
Bella chuckled. “Take a look if you don’t believe me.”
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!
“How did you know it was me?!”
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.
“KS World Hotel is impenetrable unless we have a mole among us.
Bella chewed on the chocolate. “I 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 hadn’t lured you out.”
“You know about Xena? How do you know?” Henry was more concerned about his
girlfriend than his current predicament.
“Don’t forget who Ms. Thompson is.” 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.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe enemy was far too powerful.
“You’ve worked for KS World for ten years, Henry. You were dedicated to the company,
planning many high-value events. You’re a talented man. I was going to promote you to
the chief of the planning department at the end of the year.” Bella sighed in regret.
Henry was taken aback.
“You threw your future away because of so-called love, and you’re facing charges. Do you
think it’s worth it?”
“Yes! I love her. I’m willing to do anything for her.”
Henry’s eyes turned menacing as he jolted forward.
Bella remained composed.
Startled, Steven jumped out to shield Bella.
“Bella Thompson! Don’t pretend to be the good guy here!”
Henry looked Bella dead in the eye, seeking justice for his lover. “I don’t need your
promotion. Everything I did was to help Xena get her revenge! Xena’s dad is in jail
because of you! You destroyed Xena’s life! You God-forsaken capitalist! You got off easy by
losing one deal. The way I see it, you deserve to die!”
