About three minutes later, a young man with short hair walked into Bella’s room.
Knock knock knock!
“Come in…”
Upon hearing Bella’s voice, the young man seemed somewhat nervous.
After he walked in, he did not even dare to look up at Bella.
Bella seemed to have sensed something from the other party’s awkward gait and expression. The corners of her mouth rose slightly, and her heart was filled with joy.
Originally, if Bella wanted to use this young man and make him obedient, the only thing she could use seemed to be Yves’ death. Bella knew that the young man had a very good relationship with Yves. Thus, as long as she provoked him verbally, the young man would definitely become devoted to her.
However, Bella could see now that this kid seemed to have some interest in herself. She was not angry at all as this was very beneficial to her.
After sorting out her thoughts, Bella took out his file and said with a cold face on purpose.
“According to the file, your name is Edmund and you used to be Deputy Captain Yves’ guard, right?”
“That’s right…” the other party answered.
“Then what do you think of his death?”
Bella’s straightforward question confused Edmund.
However, Edmund was indeed close to Yves. Without Yves’ promotion, he would not be where he was today. Hence, when Bella brought it up again, Edmund felt sad.
“Miss Bella, l-l still can’t accept his death.”
“Really? Me too. I didn’t expect Yves to die so easily. Then if I tell you now that you have a chance to avenge him, will you be willing to seize it? Who do you think you should go to?”
