"Right away, sir," the voice on the other end cimmediately.
Few seconds later, I watched as the door creaked back as it was gently pushed open. Bella walked in.
My eyes dress thened her from head to toe; she was dressed in a black turtleneck dress that tightly hugged her graceful figure, her plum lips were coated in a rich red color and a large fancy, black rimmed sunglass sat on her delicate nose and obscured her expression from any onlooker. "Hello, Mark," she said in a detached voice as she stood before me, her obviously newly manicured fingers held onto the top of the seat.
I took in a deep breath and exhaled. "Take a seat," I said indifferently and gestured toward one of the two empty chairs on the other side if the table. Then I sat straight and clasped my palms together on the table. "Why have you come? What do you want to talk about?" Her hand slid down the top of the seat as she took a seat on one of the chairs. Her sunglasses were still on as she tipped up her chin and faced me. "I'm her for my break up fe," she blurted out bluntly, no pleasantries, nothing. Then her shoulders raised in a slight shrug that i would have missed it if I was not staring at her so intently, struggling to decipher who the woman befurewas.

Does her parents know about their daughter's schemes? Or they were the one that even put her to it. Perhaps she took after her parents. I hadn't even had tto go to them and give them a piece of my mind. But one thing was sure, I will be pulling out all of my investments from their crooked company.

Perhaps it was her outer beauty that blindedto all of these? I gotswept by the front she put up that I overlooked everything and everyone else. If only I had been kinder to Sydney. 1 blinked and shook my head. No thoughts of Sydney.
"Bella," I started calmly, "I thought there was love between us. After I ended things with you at the hospital, I didn't expect your first words when we happen to meet again to be an demand for a breakupe. Yes, Mark There was love between us and I did love you," she shrugged, more prominently this time, "But what can I say, I love myself more. We all do." Then she removed her sunglasses and fixedwith a cold glare I had never seen on her in all the years I had known her, "Since every chance of getting married you and being your wife has been wrecked, I must look out for myself. I see nothing wrong with that."
