Zoe Bell woke up to find the car parked at a service area, with only her and William Hale inside. He had a set of English documents resting on his knee, his hand holding a pen and making annotations on them.
And she…
Didn’t know how long she had been sleeping against
him.
“When did I fall asleep?” Zoe straightened up; her neck was stiff from sleeping with her head to the side.
“Not long after we got onto the highway.”
“I didn’t sleep for too long, did I?”
“Not long, about three hours.”
Zoe bit her lip, feeling rather embarrassed. She got out of the car to use the restroom, and when she got back in, she kept her head down playing with her phone.
It was then that she accidentally came across Mina

Bell’s social media Moments.
The background was a high–end restaurant; she held at wine glass with her makeup delicately done, looking every bit the metropolitan and stylish, but her face had changed significantly.
It seemed she had gotten cosmetic surgery done after
the welcome dinner.
Wasn’t the Bell Group facing a crisis?
How could she still be in the mood to show off and
even undergo cosmetic surgery?
She had thought her deadbeat brother had no conscience, but she was almost the same.
Or maybe the Bell family wasn’t at the point of utter desperation yet.
In Moments, a former colleague from the training institute had posted a picture of a professional ballet competition, happening to take place in Greenland. Many colleagues commented that they wanted to participate but didn’t have time to practice.
Zoe took a deep breath.
Her leg would probably keep her out of professional

competitions for a lifetime.
Thinking of her own leg, she inevitably thought of Kevin Bell and his wife, and the headache–inducing
demand for fifty million.
Lost in her thoughts, by sunset, they had arrived at Larkhill, where Nanny Parker had already prepared.
dinner.
With William Hale’s work being busy as usual, Zoe didn’t see him often during the few days back in Greenland. However, with Wyatt Hale, the ever–jovial man, life wasn’t so dull.
But Kevin had not contacted her again, and she didn’t know if they had weathered the crisis.
**
Kevin Bell was frantic by then.
He really had no choice but to pull strings and ask around, and that’s when he found out Ethan Stone was meeting with William Hale in a few days. Clenching his teeth, Kevin decided to find William Hale!
Zoe was still his daughter, and following him around without clarity or resolution, he had the right to

inquire.
Furthermore,
it was William Hale himself who said it, if you want money, come find me!
“Should we inform the Stone family in advance? If we barge in like this and interfere with their business, Ethan Stone definitely won’t let us off the hook,” Vivi Lange said nervously.
Kevin Bell frowned tightly, “We can’t worry about that now; we have to get through this crisis first.”
Once at the hotel, Vivi Lange turned to her daughter, “Mina, why don’t you go home first?”
They hadn’t planned to take Mina Bell when they left.
But she insisted on coming along.
Since the welcome dinner, she had changed a lot, indulging in surgery, pleasure, and spending without restraint. Vivi Lange had gently advised her, given their family’s declining financial situation.
Mina, however, just smiled: “Mom‘, if I suddenly stop spending money, everyone will know our family is about to collapse.”

Even if the inside was rotting, you had to keep up appearances on the outside.
If both inside and outside collapsed,
everyone would know that the Bell family might be
finished.
And that would only make things harder.
Her reasoning made some sense, and to compensate her, Vivi Lange spent almost all of her private savings on her daughter.
Today she was also dressed to the nines, but the most critical part was:
The makeup and the style of dress,
were strikingly like Zoe Bell!
To maintain a similar style, she had even gone out of her way to get long hair extensions. When Brandon Stone saw her, his entire scalp tingled.
She was like an imitator extraordinaire!
She claimed to dislike her, yet copied her in every way, wasn’t she disgusted with herself?
The key issue was that she didn’t have Zoe Bell’s figure

and temperament. It was like a blind person groping to copy an elephant, awkward and out of place,
Had the Bell Family lost their minds? How could they allow her to dress up like that?
Kevin Bell and his wife had been scrambling for money lately, they didn’t have the time to bother with her.
“This… what brings you here? Are you here to eat?” Ethan Stone greeted the Bell family trio with a smile on his face.
But he guessed their intentions and fumed silently inside.
The Bells, such shameless scoundrels!
Uninvited, if they were here to steal business, he
wouldn’t stand for it.
“Ethan, I’m really sorry for today, we indeed have an urgent matter to discuss with Mr. Hale, and hearing that you were meeting, I took the liberty of coming uninvited,” said Kevin Bell with thick–skinned
directness, stating his intention plainly.
“Business matters?”
Ethan Stone had thought that William Hale’s previous

discussions about cooperation were just for getting close to Zoe Bell.
He hadn’t expected a follow–up.
Turns out he was serious, so he brought his son along.
“Don’t worry, I’m not here to steal business,” Kevin Bell said, his smile disingenuous. “You see… Zoe is with him, and the rumors outside are too unsavory. I want to have a good talk with him; this can’t go on, it’s affecting Zoe’s reputation too badly.”
He spoke with affected earnestness, as if he truly cared for Zoe Bell.
Brandon rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached heaven.
He was well aware of the Bell’s current situation.
They must be here to beg William Hale.
“Mom, Dad, Uncle Ethan, Brother Brandon, you guys chat, I’ll go to the restroom,” said Mina Bell, twisting her waist, leaving the private room to touch up her makeup.
She admired herself in the mirror for a long while; she had recently undergone some facial procedures,

injecting something into her chin and nose which hadn’t fully settled, but she was very pleased with the result.
When she left the restroom, she accidentally saw a familiar figure emerging from a room.
Wasn’t that…
Wyatt Hale’s assistant?
Could it be, he had already arrived?
Mina Bell had only recently been educated on just what kind of powerhouse the Hale Family was.
In that moment, she suddenly felt Brandon’s allure fade away.

In terms of family background, looks, or presence and stature, William Hale was leagues above Brandon. She was terrified of this man when she first met him; naturally, she didn’t dare entertain too many thoughts.
But if Zoe Bell could climb up to him,
why couldn’t she?
Perhaps because of her recent cosmetic work, Mina Bell felt that compared to Zoe Bell, she wasn’t lacking

at all!
Putting on airs of pride and propriety, in the end wasn’t it just selling her body and relying on a man?
Mina Bell took a deep breath, her lips curling into a smile as she knocked on the door of the resting room.
Wyatt Hale had indeed arrived early, as he also had a meeting with other business partners here. One of them had left something behind, and Zac Cruz had stepped out to return it. 2
Wyatt was poring over the collaboration with the Stone Family, when he heard a knock at the door and was momentarily startled.
Had Zac returned?
Surely that was too quick.
So it shouldn’t be him, and he had made it clear to the
hotel staff not to disturb him, so who could this unexpected visitor be?
The knock came again, and Wyatt Hale said, “Come in.” 2
As the door was twisted open from the outside, accompanied by a strong scent of perfume, Mina Bell sashayed into the resting room.

His eyes narrowed slightly,
Why was it her?
“Mr. Hale…” Mina Bell, the shameless one, deliberately squeezed her voice, that nasal whine grating on Wyatt
Hale’s nerves.
