“You, what do you mean? You say you can’t?” Mina Bell looked at him incredulously, having thought that it was just Brandon Stone who had drunk too much that night, which is why nothing happened. →
But Brandon Stone was so drunk that he remembered nothing, and Mina Bell then thought of pinning it on
him.
“You’re the one who can’t, I just couldn’t at that time!”
Being told he couldn’t, Brandon Stone exploded.
This was a matter related to a man’s dignity.
“You took care of me all night then, and said it was your first time facing so many people at the welcome party, you were very scared, that’s why I agreed to
accompany you.”
Brandon Stone had been medicated and absolutely couldn’t perform, naturally, he never thought that Mina Bell was planning to set him up.

So he was unguarded.
He now felt a surge of retrospective fear. If she had succeeded, he would have been entangled with her for a lifetime.
“I thought you were just too tired and that’s why you lay in the same bed with me.”
“How was I to know, you actually wanted to sleep with
me!”
“Pfft-” Wyatt Hale couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
“Sorry, please continue!” Wyatt Hale then stood behind his brother. @
Standing there felt safer.
Mina Bell had no idea about Brandon Stone’s injury,
and failing her blame,
instead made everyone see her true colors.
Knowing that Brandon Stone was drunk, she still pursued him; this was truly self–disrespectful, shameful, disgraceful.
Kevin Bell and his wife had a filter when it came to

their own daughter; with such an incident occurring. they were too ashamed to stay any longer. Vivi Lange still wished to plead with William Hale.
But knowing this man was cold–hearted, she could only turn her eyes to Zoe Bell.
“Zoe, I’m begging you, let Mr. Hale forgive Mina. She was wrong first, but she has also been punished. Don’t make it hard for her anymore.”
Zoe Bell merely smiled, “I can’t make decisions for Mr.
Hale.”
“Those who easily ask others for forgiveness are those who haven’t been hurt. They speak without feeling the pain, flapping their lips together; speaking does seem easy for them.”
“Also…”
“Don’t say you’re my mom, your tone is quite disgusting.”
Vivi Lange got angry but seeing William Hale standing next to her, she had no choice but to swallow her
anger.

Zoe Bell used to fall for her tactics.

All she had to do was soften her voice, coax her a bit, and she would obediently listen.
Now things really had changed!
“Mom, what if the police come, what then? I really don’t want to get arrested!” When Mina Bell saw her mother helping her, she naturally clung to her seeking help.
As the mother and daughter were in despair, shedding tears, Zac Cruz casually dropped a sentence:
“No one called the police, stop crying.”
Mina Bell’s tears hung in her eyes, her colored contacts had cried off, water still dripping from her body, forming a puddle underneath her, messy, embarrassing.
She looked like a clown, frantically hopping up and down, only to be told:
It was all a trick?
“What did you say?” Kevin Bell’s pupils dilated, and he quickly recovered, “You did this intentionally to fool
us!”
“Does President Bell have an obiection?” William Hale

raised an eyebrow.
Clearly, he had orchestrated this!
It was to see the Bell Family tearing each other apart, climbing and biting, enjoying their ridicule.
Kevin Bell almost spat out blood in anger but could only grit his teeth and swallow, he glanced at Zoe Bell, “Fine, you’re good, just wait…”
“The adoption relationship, I will not dissolve it!”
“If the Bell Family is finished, I’ll make sure you go down with us.”
William Hale chuckled low, “Then I’m really curious to see what President Bell plans to do.”
Kevin Bell stormed out in a fury, and accompanied by Vivi Lange, Mina Bell also quickly left this place of trouble.
As for Brandon Stone, he had been hospitalized before and had a bellyful of complaints.
But now, he felt extremely fortunate.
Otherwise, he would definitely have been falsely
accused by Mina Bell.

“Mr. Hale, there have been too many things happening today, about discussing our cooperation, should we reschedule?” Ethan Stone tentatively spoke up.
William Hale nodded.
Brandon Stone looked deeply at Zoe Bell, wanting to say something, but before he could open his mouth, he was dragged away by his father’s firm grip on his arm.
Only after they had left did Wyatt Hale turn to his older brother, “Brother, what happened?”
“Nothing, let’s go home.”

On the way home, Zoe Bell didn’t ask what exactly had happened. She went straight to take a shower upon returning to her room, as she hadn’t had the chance to wash off the sweat from her dance.
She took a deep breath and felt that her worry was simply excessive.
Even if Mina Bell had bad intentions, Zac Cruz sending her that kind of message, it seemed unlikely that
anything bad would hannen

She had rushed over in a frenzy, and by the time she got there, everything was over, and she couldn’t have been of any help.
Yet hearing that he had an accident…
She felt particularly tense.
She set the water a bit cooler to try to clear her head.
Zoe Bell, it’s just a contractual marriage, don’t get too
drawn in.
By the time she came out, William Hale was in the
room.
He must have taken a shower in the next room and changed into home clothes, deep grey, which made. him seem even more profound and restrained. His gaze fell on her, as if weighing and pondering something.
It made Zoe Bell feel somewhat flustered.
Back in the hotel, when William Hale had asked her why she came, as soon as Zoe Bell looked towards Zac Cruz, he knew it was Zac Cruz who had informed her, so he had specifically talked to him.
He had also seen the message he sent

Defiled? He dared to say that!
“Sir, I just felt it necessary to inform the lady. You see, she came here on her own, without even changing her clothes, which shows how worried she was about you,” Zac Cruz tried to explain for himself.
“The lady is inherently reserved about her feelings and has been hurt before. If I hadn’t provoked her a bit, she wouldn’t have reacted like this.”
Zac Cruz talked at length, seeing that his boss had no reaction, he thought he might have messed up.
But then William Hale simply left him with a phrase: “You’ll get an extra bonus this month.“@
Zac Cruz bowed his head, trying hard to suppress a
smile.
He knew that as long as he clung to the lady’s coattails, he would be able to enjoy the good life.
Meanwhile, Wyatt Hale, curious, had been
eavesdropping at the doorway, catching bits and pieces, later asking William Hale, “Brother, were you harassed?”

Such stimulation?
At that moment, Zoe Bell was toweling her hair, disturbed by his gaze. William Hale approached her, took over the towel, and began drying her hair, “Why didn’t you blow dry it before coming out?”
She froze, not moving.
“First towel off the water, then blow dry it later.”
“How did you end up at the hotel?”
He lowered his head slightly, his breath warm and gentle on her face, yet it easily unsettled her breathing.
All she could do was feign calmness as she said, “Zac Cruz sent me a message.”
“Were you worried about me?” he pressed, his voice low.
His gaze was scorching.
Zoe Bell didn’t deny it, yet her pride wouldn’t quite allow it, “I knew you would be fine, it’s just that Mina Bell is so shameless, so I…”
She left her sentence unfinished.

Before she could continue, William Hale had already pulled her into his arms.

His hold was firm; Zoe Bell’s entire body rested against him. She could distinctly feel his warm body temperature and his strong, vigorous heartbeat.
Having just taken a shower, her body was hot, and being held by him only made the heat linger.
The warmth spread to her face, feeling like a fever.
In her ears were the hurried, chaotic beats of his heart, and then he said as he leaning closer:
“I’m glad you were worried about me.”
