The next morning, Bella Scott sent Edward Anderson off to work as usual. Edward saw that she was fine and not losing her temper, so he finally felt at ease.
As soon as Edward left, Bella called Charles White and asked if he had time at noon because she wanted to invite him to lunch.
Charles had just been promoted and had a lot to deal with. According to her, he probably couldn't spare the time to meet her. She even thought about casually finding an excuse to use his house keys later.
Unexpectedly, Charles, the busy man, actually said he had time and even offered to treat her to a big meal at a hotel near Starlight Ventures.
Bella wasn't interested in a big meal at all; she was only interested in Charles's secrets.
Before leaving, Bella specifically told Lina Wilson to keep an eye on Mila Gray and to call her if Mila didn't behave.
When she arrived at the appointed hotel, she found that Charles had arrived even earlier than her.
