Chapter 1981Chapter 1981 Joining The Company
I can’t believe I’ve been holding his hand this whole time.
After realizing it, Bella immediately let go of his hand.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to,” Bella explained sincerely. She was in such a hurry earlier that she did not.
have time to react.
Mike shook his head to indicate he was fine, though his face was a bit flushed.
Suddenly, Bella wondered, Is this the first time he is holding a girl’s hand?
But, she did not ask as the matter at hand was not very important.
“What’s going on between you and them?” Bella could not help but ask. Judging from Mike’s
demeanor, he did not seem like the type to stir up trouble.
Why would he get mixed up with those thugs?
Mike gave a bitter smile. “It’s a long story. It’s about family matters… I don’t want to talk about it right
now. Is it okay if I don’t?”
Perhaps it was because Bella had saved him once. That was why Mike’s manner of speaking was no
longer as harsh as before. He was polite and even sounded more like a college student.
Bella naturally showed respect.
“If you don’t want to talk, then don’t. But can you try not to be so straightforward in the future? If I hadn’t
cracked a joke, were you really planning on fighting them?”Mike did not say a word. It was clear that that was his plan.
Bella felt that this college student had quite a few secrets and was also quite straightforward.
If he did not want to talk about it, then she would not insist.
Seeing that the time was about right, those people should have gone far by now.
Bella casually patted his arm. “It’s getting late. You should rest and head back as soon as you can. I’ll
be going now. When you encounter such situations next time, there’s no need to be so stubborn.
Otherwise, who will come to your rescue?”
Having said that, Bella was about to leave.
After much hesitation, Mike finally mustered the courage to call out to her from behind.
“Wait!”
Bella turned around and looked at Mike with a somewhat puzzled expression.
Mike hesitated several times before finally gathering the courage to say, “You mentioned earlier that I
am an employee of your company…”
Upon hearing that, Bella waved her hand dismissively. “Isn’t it just an excuse to brush them off?
Otherwise, I’d really be sticking my nose where it doesn’t belong.” Having said that, she looked at Mike

Mike shook his head seriously and stared at Bella as he said, word by word, “What I mean to ask is,
does our agreement still stand? If it does, I can officially start work tomorrow.”
Bella was a bit slow to react.
After her brain had processed the information, she gave a small laugh.
Unexpectedly, her meddling turned out to be right. The talent who was driven away by Kaylee returned
in
a strange way.
Regardless of whether he was motivated by gratitude or guilt, he was a talented individual. Bella would
naturally welcome him and have made her stance clear.
“You’re interviewing for an entry-level position, so start from the ground up. If you do well, promotions
and raises will naturally follow. The doors of Benett Corporation are always open for you.”
After saying that, Bella extended her hand. “Pleasure working together.”
novelbinMike looked at those hands of hers. They had been holding each other’s hands just a moment ago, so
he knew very well how warm they were….
Mike extended his hand, and their hands clasped tightly once again. He began to speak with an easy
demeanor.
“I look forward to working with you.”
And so, the two of them reached an agreement.The next day in the bathroom, Kaylee had not yet arrived at the company, but Mike, who had been
driven. away by her, reported to work.
Bella specifically instructed the human resources department to make Mike’s entry process a very easy
one.
