The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming

Chapter 288

Chapter 288: Chapter 285: Intimidation

Luna nonchalantly walked towards the sofa and sat next to Bella, not too far, yet not too close.

But for Bella, this was an intimate distance, as if a silent monster that could eat her was sitting beside her, not knowing when it might suddenly lean over and take a bite.

Elliana Lyle stacked several empty files on the table, and while organizing them, she glanced sideways at Bella.

At this moment, Bella was simply lowering her eyes, admiring a set of Ru porcelain teaware on the coffee table with a calm expression as if she were merely appreciating the teaware.

Yet, the slight curl in her hand wasn’t missed by Elliana’s eyes.

Bella might be thinking about what they would ask and how she should fabricate lies on the spot to convince them.

Seeing that it was almost time, Elliana stretched lazily on the chair, "Bella, what’s your relationship with Cameron Southwell?"

"What?" Bella suddenly looked up, a hint of astonishment flashing in her eyes.

The question felt out of nowhere; Elliana’s tone seemed casual, but Bella knew this was certainly testing her.

She rolled her eyes as if reminiscing and calmly replied, "The chairman of Roland. I saw Mr. Southwell once when I was at Roland."

After speaking, she pursed her lips with a smile, her fox eyes narrowing slightly as she looked at Elliana and laughed at herself: "Someone of my low status wouldn’t be connected with Mr. Southwell."

"Is that so?" Elliana slightly furrowed her brow, her face showing a puzzled expression, as if she had hit some cognitive bottleneck.

She then looked at Luna, hesitating to speak, as if seeking help.

This reaction made Bella feel uneasy as well.

At this moment, Luna said indifferently: "Cameron Southwell called us yesterday, wanting to buy you from July Media. We thought you were going to break the contract and switch sides."

Before Bella could react, Elliana interjected, reprimanding: "Luna, don’t say that."

Then she looked at Bella with a smile, seemingly guilty: "Bella, I recently recruited a batch of people who fit the current market, and they have legitimate credentials. You see..."

She hesitated, somewhat difficult to continue: "You’re not bringing much value here. Coincidentally, Mr. Cameron Southwell from Roland specifically asked for you, the price is fair, and I plan to transfer your contract to Roland. What do you think...?"
