Unveiled: The Survivor's Triumph

Chapter 268

Chapter 268 Self-Reliance

Bella knocked on the general manager's office door, documents in hand.

"Come in," a man's voice called from inside.

Bella pushed the door open, walked over to the desk, and handed over the documents.

"Mr. William, here are the documents you asked for."

Jack William looked up at Bella.

Bella's natural look, without any makeup, was more appealing than those heavily made-up women. Her cool demeanor, which seemed to come from deep within, sparked a desire to conquer.

Any regular guy would take a second look, let alone Jack, who wasn't exactly a saint.

Jack looked at her with interest, took the documents, and grabbed Bella's hand in the process.

With a playful smile, Jack said, "I appreciate someone like you, not only beautiful but also serious about your work."

Bella pulled her hand back and said indifferently, "If there's nothing else, Mr. William, I'll be leaving now."

She turned to leave, but Jack suddenly got up, took a few steps to overtake her, and locked the door. "Don't be in such a hurry. You know the company is planning a new project. Let's discuss it together." He approached Bella with ill intentions.

Bella remained calm and unflustered, saying lightly, "Mr. William, I'm just an ordinary clerk. I can't handle that."

Jack had already reached her, his hand falling on Bella's shoulder and sliding down.

Jack said, "Don't you understand what I mean? You need to think long-term. If you listen to me, I'll promote you, give you a high position and salary. You'll be my right-hand person, and you'll be involved in all major projects. For now, let's get you familiar with things."

Bella unceremoniously pushed Jack's hand away and placed her hand on her slightly rounded belly.

"Mr. William, are you interested in a pregnant woman?"

Jack was stunned and looked at Bella's belly.

Bella hadn't been with the company long, and she always wore loose clothing, so no one had noticed. Jack's expression turned somewhat ugly.

He walked back to his desk, pulled out Bella's resume, and threw it on the desk, pointing at it.

Jack shouted, "So, the 'single' status on your resume is a lie? That's deceit!"

Bella used to be a Taekwondo instructor, but because of her pregnancy, she couldn't do that job anymore and had to find a lighter clerical job.

At the time, this company offered higher pay for clerks but required them to be single. To get the job, Bella had claimed to be single.

She had already thought it through: if her pregnancy was discovered later, she would just be dismissed and could then focus on her maternity leave. It wasn't a big deal.

"So what?" Bella looked at Jack calmly.

Jack was stunned again. He'd had many clerks before, some obedient, some not, but he'd never seen a woman like Bella. Despite being pregnant and in a vulnerable position, she remained calm and seemed to not take him seriously.

Jack wouldn't be intimidated by Bella. He cleared his throat to regain his composure.
