“Don’t sweat it! It was Bella who sniffed out the mole in the company! You might not know, but Linda,

the HR Manager sent over from the head office, had been fiddling with the attendance records. She

only showed up for work 78 days in a year, yet she pocketed our full year’s salary and perfect

attendance bonus. Oh, and don’t forget the year–end bonus.” Kenneth said.

Louisa was taken aback, “How did Bella find out?”

“I’m not entirely sure, just heard from the grapevine that Bella was going to let Linda off the hook. But

Linda strutted into the office, spouting a load of trash about Bella loud enough for everyone to hear. A

cops.” Kenneth said.

“Bella did a great job. She’s amazing!” Louisa was impressed how Bella kept her cool when faced with

such a hostile ex–employee. She had some serious guts.

“Ms. Bennett is truly remarkable! Young yet such a whiz in business!”

‘Totally! She’s definitely got the Collins‘ business smarts running in her veins.”

“She’s definitely a chip off the old Collins block. Just as brilliant as her brothers!”

“Congrats to Mr. and Mrs. Collins, for having such a wonderful and beautiful daughter. The company’s

in good hands, you guys can breathe easy now.”

Kenneth and Louisa, hearing all the praises, couldn’t help but feel elated.

Initially, they handed the company to Bella just to keep her busy. Little did they know she would do

such a stellar job. It was a sight to behold.

Serena, eavesdropping from a corner, was green with envy as Bella stole the spotlight again. Yet she

kept a smile on her face, and walked in with some goodies. “Mom, Dad, I’m back. Guess what I got for

you?”

“Is it from Bright Restaurant?” Louisa asked.

“Yes, I heard their stuff is a tough get. Even if you’re loaded, you still have to queue up for a spot!”

Serena said.

“Serena, you went queuing for this?” Louisa was instantly concerned.

“As long as it makes you happy, I don’t mind the wait.” Serena unpacked the items and said with a

smile, “Let’s eat while it’s still hot!”

In reality, it was the bodyguard who had to queue. Serena only took the food home after it was handed

to her. It took minimal effort on her part, but Louisa was already touched. Maybe she could use this

trick more often to win their hearts.

“You’re a Collins heiress, let the staff take care of these things next time.” Kenneth said.

Upon hearing this, Serena hugged Kenneth again, “I know you care about me, Dad. I only dare to hug

you like this when sis isn’t around. Now, let’s sit down and eat!“.

Kenneth felt guilty upon hearing this. Serena was the daughter they raised as their own. With Bella’s

return, her status indeed took a hit. She must be feeling upset.

“Even with Bella back, you’re still our daughter. We’ll always look out for you in your future married

life.” Louisa gently stroked her head, her affection for Serena profound.

“Thank you!” Serena beamed, “I don’t need anything. As long as I can be with you, take care of you,

I’m content.”

“You silly child.” Louisa chuckled, her heart twinged with a hint of sadness. Her daughter was growing

up too fast.

Elsewhere.

Carl placed a document in front of Romeo, “Mr. McMillian, this needs your signature. I’ve checked it,

everything’s in order.”

For small–scale contracts like this, Carl would check them first for Romeo.

Romeo was always busy, and he usually didn’t handle such minor contracts himself.

Romeo flashed a smile, signed the contract with a flourish.,

“Mr. McMillian, you seem to be in a good mood today?” Carl asked.
