Chapter 143

Bella gripped her hands and smiled despite hearing his uncharitable words. “It looks like you are busy with work. You must take good care of yourself. Your body should be your priority no matter how important your work is.”

“The company isn’t that busy. I don’t want to waste my time on some matter. So it’s meaningless as it wastes time and affects my mood.” Christian smiled.
