My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 129

In the CEO’s office of Quantum Capital on the 19th floor.

Bella was busy reading reports on her computer screen when she heard a knock on the door.

"Yes?" She responded without looking at the door.

"Boss, someone asked to see you," Leo’s voice came from the door, making Bella look at him with a frown. She saw Leo leaning on the door frame.

"Who?"

Bella remembered she didn’t have any appointments today because she had a lot of files to read from their other subsidiary company.

"Andreas Corby," Leo smiled when he saw her eyes widen. She appears suprised.

"Why did he come to meet me? He supposed to meet Mr. Sullivan, right!?"

"Yes, you’re right. However, after he found out that you were the one who gave orders to the legal team, he’s furious out there and insists on seeing you."

"How troublesome!" Bella shook her head, feeling annoyed. "Leo, you know this person doesn’t deserve to meet me, right?" She looked into Leo’s eyes.

"Indeed! But he’s so mad now, throwing a tantrum because Sam stopped him. Not letting that piece of trash into your office..." Leo chuckled as he walked in and casually sat down on the sofa. "Boos, do you want to meet him or not?"

Leo glanced at Bella, who walked to join him and then sat right before him.

Bella didn’t rush to answer Leo. After quietly and relaxedly settling on the single sofa, she asked, "Where’s Jack?"

"Sleeping upstairs. Looks like he’s tired after working late til the morning, online with another office in a faraway country with a very different time zone."

"So? That’s come within his responsibility. How dare he sleep while we’re working now?" Bella said as she took her cell phone and dialed Jack’s number.

"Hello," Jack’s hoarse voice came from the other end. "Bella...why did you wake me up so early?" He sounded annoyed.

Bella chuckled at his words.

"Geez...You should be embarrassed by the sunshine out there. It’s almost lunchtime, boss."

"Ugh! Bella, I got into my bed when the sun was just about to rise. I know, I know. It comes with the job. But please let me sleep for a few more minutes...hmm...?" Jack growls while burying his head under the pillow.

"Well, I’m sorry. You can’t sleep now, boss. Your brother-in-law is making a scene in my office. Please come here immediately to look after him, or I’ll call the police and throw him in jail!"

Beep!

Suddenly, the telephone connection was ended.

"Damn! He hung up?" Bella stared at her cellphone screen in disbelief. Just before, she wanted to call him again. An incoming message pops up on her phone screen. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

[Jack: ] Yea, yea. I will come down immediately.

After a few moments of thinking, finally, Leo agreed.

"Okay, count me in..."

Leo needed to vent his annoyance after Jack ruined his peaceful life. Since Jack arrived in this city, he could not rest at night; Jack made him work too and included him in every online meeting. He feels exhausted. Last night, he could only sleep for two hours.

Bella smiled happily when she saw Leo leave the room to invite Andreas to meet her. She also stood up from her seat and walked towards her desk, taking a brown envelope from one of the drawers.

A smile blooms on her lips while looking at the brown envelope in her hand.

’Andreas Scum Corby, you will soon meet your end after what you did to your wife...’ Bella muttered to herself and returned to the seating area.

However, before Bella could sit down, she saw Leo had returned with a tall, large man following him. She knew the man was Andreas Corby.

Bella was taken aback when she saw Andreas Corby in person because he looked different from the picture she had seen. He had a square-shaped face and short, curly brown hair. He looked decent in his light gray suit, but his expression revealed anger when he entered her office.

"Boss, this—" Leo’s sentence suddenly stopped when Andreas walked past him and stood just a few steps from Bella.

"You are the newly appointed CEO. Listen, I don’t care how you become CEO of Quantum Capital..." said Andreas in an annoyed and angry tone. "You have to remember that you are nothing compared to me! You have to know how to position yourself. How dare you ask the legal team to question my work?"

Bella, "...."
