Bella smiled with her usual composure. "If we stand here talking, your neighbors are bound to see and start gossiping. You know the kind of people living around here. It wouldnât be good if your wife misunderstood."
"Is that so? Well, Iâm genuinely not afraid of her misunderstanding."
Even as he said that, Luis actually lifted his foot and followed her.
After all, this place truly had a lot of gossiping women. If word got back to his Mother In Law, it would be difficult to explain.
As the President, Bella rarely made appearances here. Compared to the other businesses of the Leon family, this place could only be considered a minor addition.
However, she also had her own office on the second floor of the property management area. It was relatively simple. After opening the door, she said,
"Tea or coffee? The tea leaves I keep here arenât very good, but the coffee is barely acceptable."
"No need. If you have something to say, just spit it out quickly."
Luis directly sat down in her chair, behaving in a cocky and disrespectful manner. "You and that guy Dominic are not good people. But if I had to compare the two of you, I actually have more appreciation for that mad dog David."
"If it werenât for Waller, do you think Dominic would be so easy to talk to, agreeing to compensate you with money so readily?"
Bella did not mind his behavior and sat down in the guest seat, saying, "However, he is treating you like a beggar. A mere 10,000 dollars, and he actually dares to offer it. He really is getting old and has lost all his nerve."
Luis lit a cigarette, directly propping his feet up on her desk. "You donât need to try and sow discord anymore. Between Dominic and me, who exactly do you see as the fool in your eyes?"
"And then thereâs the matter of the car being smashed today. Tsk tsk, President Bella, donât tell me you are innocent in this."
Luis had been turning the car-smashing incident over in his mind, and now everything seemed to connect and make sense.
The Phase One property management belonged to the Leon family, while Phase Two belonged to the Taiga family. This linked to the recent rumors of intense arguments between the two property managements, even escalating to physical fights between their security guards.
He had been puzzled at first, but now, thinking about the rivalry between the Taiga and Leon families, it wasnât strange at all.
Knowing that the Phase One property was the Leon familyâs business made everything fall into place. That guy David, no matter how brazen he was, should have some limits.
The Taiga family still held shares in the Ocean Hotel, after all. It was said they were the sole major investor in that KTV, so it made some sense that he still hung around there messing about.
But this Phase One property was entirely the Leon familyâs business. With the two families currently at loggerheads, it was almost impossible for him to come here gathering information.
Yet he managed to correctly locate his car, not just the Cayenne but even knowing who owned the broken down Nissan. It was impossible without someone tipping him off.
Who else but Bella would want to use another to do her dirty work like this?
Furthermore, calling the police immediately after the incident occurred. Logically, this would be a scandal for the property management company, but it was quickly stirred up until everyone in the entire community knew about it.
Wasnât this precisely meant to put Luis squarely on the spot, to make him feel humiliated and angry? So that, if only for the sake of his Mother In Lawâs reputation, he would feel compelled to fight for this point of pride?
Bella did not deny it, merely letting out a seductive laugh. "There are always oversights among the subordinates. I know any explanation would be useless. Itâs inevitable that a large tree will have some dead branches."
"I feel itâs unjust on your behalf. Dominic only compensated you for the car and a paltry 10,000 dollars. How can you possibly swallow such an insult?"
Bellaâs tone was utterly enticing. "As long as you feel unwilling to accept this, you donât need Waller to get involved. I will naturally stand by your side and help you seek proper justice."
"You have been deeply irritating from the very first day I met you."
Luis stubbed out his cigarette and stood up, looking at her with a cold gaze. "So high and mighty, always so self-righteous. What makes you think you have the qualification to manipulate me?"
"Itâs not about manipulation, itâs about cooperation. It is also my sincere way of apologizing."
Bella quickly offered an appeasing smile.
Luis chuckled darkly and walked over, his eyes sweeping over her body with a predatory gaze. He had to admit, with that exquisite face, she was truly a rare, peerless stunning beauty.
Bella, a pure lesbian, didnât even show a hint of disgust. Instead, she met Luisâs gaze with remarkable boldness, her eyes filled with nothing but provocation.
It didnât feel quite like seduction. More likely, she was simply accustomed to these kinds of lust-filled, predatory stares and had become numb to them.
This feeling greatly displeased Luis. The anger in his heart flared up, and he snorted. "Bossâs wife, there are plenty of beautiful women, but very few are as universally detestable as you."
"What do you mean by that?"
Bellaâs smile stiffened slightly.
She was always used to being superior. Having her warm face pressed against a cold backside for so long, it was impossible for there not to be fire in her heart.
Luis moved closer, step by step, until his face was almost touching hers. Most women would probably be startled and instinctively retreat.
But Bella stubbornly didnât move an inch. Remember, compared to women brainwashed by traditional notions of reserve, she was a pure lesbian who found men even more repulsive.
Forget any physical contact; even slightly ambiguous actions, or simply the scent of a man, made her feel nauseated.
According to the Lust Systemâs prompts, this person, despite always appearing quite gentle on the surface, was actually an extreme feminist.
Calling her a âpastoral female dogâ might even be giving her too much credit. If she were in some radical countries, sheâd probably wish she could legislate to castrate all men.
Not killing them all would be considered moderate. Therefore, such an action was a tremendous affront to her.
Luis inhaled the faint trace of her perfume, but felt not a shred of desire. Finding it utterly uninteresting, he straightened up, took a step back, and looked at her.
He shook his head, couldnât be bothered to waste more words, and simply walked out.
This time, however, Bella would not have it. After pretending for so long, her temper finally flared. She turned around and shouted sharply, "Wait a minute, you, surnamed Luis. What is your meaning?"
"The meaning is very clear. Try treating me like a fool again and see what happens."
"Furthermore, I, your father, am considered something of a pervert myself. But there really arenât many like you who make me completely unable to get hard."
After saying this, Luis left first, laughing unrestrainedly. The moment he arrived home, he received a call from his Mother In Law, Ruth.
Ruth spoke with extreme anxiety, "Son in law, what is going on? I heard that our familyâs car was smashed by someone. Did you call the police? Did something happen on your end?"
The fact that Mother In Law, far away in the provincial capital, heard the news so promptly was undoubtedly thanks to Bella fanning the flames.
Her initial thought was actually correct. The people here were all resettled residents, not particularly refined and very gossipy. If Mother In Law found out, it would definitely be very troublesome.
"I heard the one who smashed the car was Dominicâs son. What is this all about? It couldnât be that after quitting your job, you still managed to offend that kind of rich young master, could it?"
Ruthâs voice was full of concern. "I havenât told Lily yet. You tell Mom first, what exactly happened?"
This was precisely the effect Bella wanted. If it were an ordinary person, someone with Mother In Lawâs temperament would absolutely not let the matter rest easily.
But the other party being Dominicâs son would make her fearful and apprehensive. In short, having her life affected like this, logically speaking, a person her age should feel humiliated and furious and not let David off lightly.
Furthermore, Luis had Waller standing behind him. If this matter reached Yeâs ears, that guy surnamed Dominic would probably be skinned alive, if not worse.
Unfortunately, she, like Dominic, thought she understood everything perfectly, but she did not know that all of this was the effect of the Lust System, or rather, the effect of the Daddyâs Blackmail Hack at work.
