Chapter 315
After coaxing Ophelia to sleep, Eliza finally saw the message from Belle.
Baby, tell me, has my net worth gone up again?”
Haha, I’m a little rich woman now!”
Wow, mistress Med’s company didn’t pass the listing application?”
hen followed by three voice messages, each about sixty seconds long.
liza didn’t dare open them, worried she might wake Ophelia up.
ven if she didn’t open them, she could guess what Belle had sent.
s expected, the nickname sixty–second Sailor Moon was well–deserved.
liza replied by typing, “Aren’t you in the mountains filming? How do you still have time to gossip?”
he message had barely been sent for two seconds when Belle’s video call came through.
hankfully, the phone was on silent.
Liza held the phone, walked to the balcony, and closed the door before answering the call.
Baby, I love you!”
liza was almost disgusted by the sweetness of it. “Speak properly.”
‘m speaking from the heart!”
elle flattered her excessively, “You’re my cash cow now, my money tree, I’m going to hold onto you tightly for the rest of my life! Never letting go!”
iza sighed, rubbing her temples.
juickly tell me, what was mistress Med’s reaction when she found out her company failed to list? Did she cry, sobbing for her parents?”
Tot exactly, but… it probably wasn’t too much better.”
iza then told Belle about Medea’s use of high leverage.
elle, who had studied business management, knew well what high leverage meant.
ifty–one times? She’s really ruthless! Was she planning to inflate stock prices after listing and then exploit people?” Belle was indignant.
Good thing she didn’t pass the review, otherwise how many people would’ve gone bankrupt?!”
Such a heartless, black hearted thing! Perfect match with Jerk Calvin!”
elle complained, dragging Calvin into the argument too.
When Eliza mentioned Calvin’s recent actions and strange behavior, Belle’s first reaction was:
is he okay?”
econd: “Has he relapsed?”
hird: “He deserves to be destroyed!”
Chapter 31s
Not comforting his vicious baby, and coming to annoy you.., really something?”
Exactly Elira replied, still speechless.
ut there was an underlying sense of something being wrong.
efore she could think more. Belle asked about Enzo’s confession.
liza immediately knew Sadie had leaked it.
I’ll deduct her bonus later.”
Don’t!” Belle defended Sadie, “She was just concerned about your love life.”
fter all, it was she who had pressed Sadie for answers, so Eliza couldn’t blame her.
What can I say?”
liza was helpless.
We’re business partners. What’s the most important thing for business partners?”
Not letting emotions get in the way!”
ASKHEART just passed the listing application. There’s still a long way to go. Once emotions are involved, any minor disturbance can affect stock prices. That’s
hy so many wealthy families, even when their relationships have fallen apart, still have to pretend to be loving and harmonious in public.”
Simply put, it’s all about business; emotions cost money.”
elle got it. “That’s right! Any fate that affects your financial gain is a doomed one! Not worth it!”
Baby, you’re scarily rational now!”
ndeed, keeping a rational head allowed her to see the bigger picture.
By the way, I heard from Sadie that Enzo confessed to you and Calvin overheard it. What was his reaction?”
What do you expect his reaction to be? Jealousy? Rage? Or going crazy?” Eliza laughed.
He didn’t react at all. He was calm.”
elle dicked her tongue, “Boring.”
he had hoped to see jerk Calvin regret losing such a good treasure like Eliza and go mad with love….
aut instead, this?
Vhat a cold, heartless man!

selle didn’t want to continue discussing the annoying topic and shifted to talking about Baxter.
Of course, this was also Sadie’s leak.
I’m making it clear now, I don’t support Baxter! Belle declared first, “What’s that saying?
‘Don’t come for the fame, don’t abandon when in the low.”
When he was ignoring you, and now that you’ve succeeded, he suddenly comes around? What’s up with that?
“A good mother is useless! When you’re doing well, they’re all promises and sweet words, but what if one day you fall? Will they still pick your
Chapter 315
Obviously not! In high society, everything is driven by interest. Once you’re no longer valuable, they won’t even spare you a second glance!”
‘Disgusting!”
liza laughed at her rant, “You sound like you know a lot.”
selle hesitated. “I watch a lot of melodramas.”
I didn’t think too much, but I really have no feelings for Baxter.”
elle rolled her eyes, “You’re so pure now, you could join a monastery! How can you have any feelings for anyone?”
alking about this, Belle couldn’t help but complain, “That Josh guy, just when you almost wavered, he backed out! Is he a turtle or what!”
What a disappointment!
he had been trying to convince Eliza all this time.
Just haven’t met the right one yet.” Eliza was very open about it.
gain, love wasn’t a necessity.
When fate comes, she’ll embrace it. If not, she’ll let it go.
I’m rooting for Director Blaine! Hope he can step up!”
eeing her drift further off topic, Eliza quickly stopped her, “It’s late, get some rest. I have to go back and calm Ophelia down. The little girl keeps having
ightmares.”
elle agreed, “Okay.”
ist as Eliza was about to hang up, a man’s voice suddenly came through.
Help me grab a towel.”
liza paused for a moment, surprised.
i man? Why am I hearing a man’s voice?”
elle cursed, “It’s the guy next door, the soundproofing in this hotel isn’t good. I’m hanging up before the filthy words affect you.”
efore Fliza could respond, there was a loud click, and the call was disconnected.
iza narrowed her eyes.
he call ended so quickly–she could tell something was off.
With Belle’s personality, if there was something inappropriate going on next door, she would have live streamed it to Eliza
be would never hang up like thist
liza had the feeling her privacy had been invaded!
nce this was over, she would go catch her in the act!
When Eliza returned to her room, Ophelia was still sleeping
liza lay down beside her.
fer mind was a mess, but there were a few moments of clarity.
These days, he’s not feeling well. If you can, visit him more often.]

[My dad… please take care of him.]
That night, Eliza suddenly sat up in bed.
This was the second time Calvin entrusted Grayson to her.
