“Hey, Bentley. Wendy is back in Nauritus City, and she gave me a job today. But it’s the same job I did abroad, and I suspect she may have found out something about me…”
May’s tone sounded a little urgent, but after she said that, there was no reply from the other end of the phone.
After a while, a slightly hoarse man’s voice snarled, “You good-for-nothing! Miss Bella trusts you, so she entrusted you with such an important task. However, you’ve exposed yourself so quickly!”
Upon hearing this, May’s face turned ashen, and she quickly pleaded, “Bentley, you’re a little irresponsible for saying that. I already said that this domestic mission is probably not suitable for me, but you insisted I take it. Now that Wendy is suspicious of me, you can‘t just sit back and turn a blind eye!”
From what May knew of Bella, Bella would definitely not let her live anymore if she failed this mission. When she thought of this, she immediately panicked. Right now, she could only ask Bentley for help. If even Bentley was not willing to lend a helping hand, then she could only stay in Nauritus City and be resigned to her fate.
Fortunately, after a while, Bentley, finally spoke on the other end of the phone, “Why are you so anxious? Jasper and Wendy didn’t do anything yet, right? They just arranged a job for you. Don’t make a fuss. It might just be a coincidence.”
May felt that this was not as simple as that. However, Bentley interrupted when she wanted to say something.
“Alright, just stay by Dawson’s side. Miss Bella has more important tasks for you soon. Once you have done it, you will definitely get a lot of benefits when you return to the United States in the future.”
After speaking, Bentley hung up the phone directly.
“Hey, hey, Mr. Bentley…” May cried into the phone a few times. When there was no response, she had no choice but to put away the phone.
After taking a deep breath, she calmed down a little, and continued to return to work, pretending nothing had happened.

On the other side, after Jasper returned from the car factory, he ran into Celine in the hotel, who was about to leave. Then, he remembered what Anna had told him before, so he stopped Celine.
