Chapter 479
Once Justin was gone, Bella helped Steven, who went numb all over, to the office.
After laying Steven flat on the sofa, Bella pursed her lips and examined his limbs without bothering to wipe the sweat off her forehead.
She could pass as a physician.
“I’m fine, Ms. Bella.”
Even though Steven went limp, he still had some limited mobility. He felt a lump in his throat, seeing how Bella was so concerned about him. “I’m sorry to trouble you.’

“Don’t say that. You were only trying to help me. Don’t act so

Feeling a catch in her throat, Bella teased him and reached out his tears.
Steven somehow found the courage to hook his arm around her wa and pull her closer to him.
His other hand pressed down on her spine as he tried to hug his beloved employer.
Bella could take a hint. She could sense a complex blend of emotions swirling within Steven’s embrace.
“Let go, Steve. Let’s not complicate things.” She pushed him away.
“Ms. Bella, I’ll accept any punishment for my behavior.” The tear stains on Steven’s face softened his facial features.
