Chapter 1831 The Mysterious Figure
Though Bella was exceptional, she never saw Elisa as a peer; instead, she regarded her as an admirable role
model. Receiving Elisa's praise brought genuine happiness to Bella, though she kept her emotions well hidden.
Elisa patted Bella's shoulder, commending her, "Well done. Now, go back to work. You need to adapt quickly to your
new position. Gareth and I will help you with moving on Friday night."
Bella nodded, accepting the plan without hesitation.
News of the recent incident had reached their grandmother's ears, and being the caring and concerned elderly
woman she is, she insisted that Bella move into the family's manor for her safety and well-being.
Feeling obligated and having no reason to refuse, Bella agreed to the arrangement.
"Will you and Gareth join us for dinner at the manor on Friday?" Bella inquired, looking at Elisa.
Elisa nodded while offering advice, "Don't dwell on the matter too much for now. Focus on your work, and we'll talk

Grateful for Elisa's understanding and guidance, Bella nodded appreciatively and returned to her office to resume
work.
Outside the company, Rochelle endured the stares and comments from passersby as she drove back to the
luxurious villa Paul had purchased for her. She remained confined to the opulent house for several consecutive
days, consumed by her resentment and bitterness.
Initially, Paul tried to console Rochelle, promising to seek revenge on Elisa and Bella for her sake. However, as
Rochelle's behavior turned increasingly vengeful and she neglected her appearance and self-care, Paul started
withdrawing from her.
His attraction to her had been fueled by her youth, beauty, and the benefits she provided to his career. Now, with
her downfall, the spark of their relationship had faded.
Rochelle's days were consumed by bitterness and resentment as she drowned her sorrows in alcohol and vented
her anger through bitter complaints. She felt abandoned and betrayed, leading to a downward spiral of negativity
and self-destructive behavior.
Seated by the French window, Rochelle was surrounded by bottles of wine and beer, drowning herself in
intoxication.
Her tears mingled with curses aimed at Elisa and Bella as she wished for their demise. She extended her fury to all
men, declaring that none were worthy of trust.
Amidst her drunken haze, an unfamiliar voice reached her through a phone call, promising to help her deal with
Bella.
Rochelle opened the window and felt the cold breeze clear her mind. Cautiously, she inquired about the caller's
identity, "Who are you? Why do you want to help me, and why should I trust you?"
Despite her caution, the person on the other end detected Rochelle's suppressed excitement. They were well aware
of her intense hatred for Bella, which pleased them greatly. A foolish and vengeful woman filled with immense
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhatred was the perfect pawn for their plans.
The person on the phone smirked, "You don't need to care about my identity. Just know that we have a common
enemy. If you want to get back at Bella, you'll have to listen to me."
Rochelle snorted coldly, "Why should I trust you?"
The voice replied confidently, "In the next few days, many capable employees working under Bella will be poached.
Then you can decide if I have the ability to cooperate with you or not."
After saying that, the caller abruptly ended the call, leaving Rochelle with a mixture of both excitement and
apprehension.
In the following days, Rochelle observed the unfolding situation with Bella and attempted to investigate the phone
number. It seemed tampered with, and the IP address indicated it was from abroad. Yet, true to the caller's words,
Bella encountered a series of valuable employees being poached.
This development both excited and fueled Rochelle's desire to cooperate with the mysterious figure. However, no
further calls came from the caller, leaving her in a puddle of uncertainty if the caller was just an imagination she
had conjured.
When Friday arrived, Gareth's car appeared on time outside the building after work, ready to assist Bella in moving.
