Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 524

"Alright, I'll be waiting for your news tomorrow. You should get back to work now. You know how Sebastian is; he prefers a strong woman."

Bella nodded. The money had reached Debbie's account, so she had nothing to worry about. She rushed back to the company.

Seeing her return relatively early, Hannah came over to give her a heads-up. "When Mr. Blake heard you took time off, he thought you weren't coming back today. He had a grim look on his face.

Maybe you should go smooth things over?"

Bella replied, "I told him I had to handle something urgent and that I wouldn't be long."

"I know," Hannah said, "but Mr. Blake doesn't."

"I get it. I'll go see him."

She knocked and entered the office. Sebastian was busy working.

When he saw Bella, his expression returned to normal.

"You're back?"

Bella smiled and handed him a cup of coffee. "Something came up this morning that delayed me a bit. I came back as soon as it was handled.

I wouldn't dare neglect my work at the company.

Sebastian, our project team has a meeting in a little while. Would you join us and offer some advice?"

Sebastian nodded. "Of course." He loved watching Bella at work, seeing her so focused on her career.

There was a captivating quality to a woman dedicated to her profession.

It was seeing this in Bella that made him compare her to Lillian.

And it was that comparison that led him to give up on Lillian and choose the more capable and career-minded Bella.
