Slap!!!

Not once but many times Bella slaps Lisa; today all the anger inside her, which was buried in her heart for 2 years, is coming out on Lisa. With each slap, she feels relief , knowing that this outburst is long overdue. Finally, exhausted from the release of her anger, Bella collapses to the floor, tears streaming down her face as she finally scream, “Why? You gave me this result of my friendship; how can you be so mean? I considered you my best friend, and you turned out to be a part of my destruction."

Tears fall from Bella’s eyes, and Lisa silently listens to her bitter words. She does not respond because perhaps that is what she deserves. She knows she has betrayed Bella's trust and friendship.

Lisa said, "I know I have made a mistake and I deserve a harsher punishment than this, but believe me, Bella, I have realized how big a sin I have committed. Please, please forgive me.

"Your apology will never make my life the same again; my baby will never come back," she screams. Li

    "What more can be expected from you, Evan Knight?" she bitterly said. Evan leans towards her and says, “You're mine, and you have to live only with me and work here, Mrs. Knight. Bella looks at him and says, “Correction, I am not Mrs. Knight. Let me remind you that 2 years ago you filed a divorce petition in court, and we were divorced without any problem because you thought I was a whore. Believe me, Mr. Knight, even if I don't get a job, I can still earn money by doing whoring, as you know.” Evan tightens his fists after hearing her words. Evan hits the door hard with his hand. He was angry, and he didn't want to hurt Bella, neither physically nor verbally. Evan had once called Bella by this disgusting name, but today, after hearing this name from Bella’s mouth, Evan realizes how hurt she was, and he feels it. Evan's eyes were red with anger, and Bella got scared. Evan takes a deep breath, trying to control his emotions. He had never intended to degrade Bella in such a way, a

    After a while, Bella returns with a cup and approaches Evan, placing the cup on his table as Evan is occupied with his laptop. Bella once again stares at Evan's burned hand. Why has he not done anything yet? She feels terrible after seeing his hand, so she goes to his office restroom and returns with the first aid kit. Evan stares at Bella. Bella tenderly holds his hand and applies ointment to it as Evan stares at her. Bella says, "It was my fault, and you were punished." Bella stares at Evan, who is staring at her. Some of Bella’s locks were in front of her face, so Evan gently placed them behind Bella’s ears while they both looked at each other. Evan grins as Bella returns to her senses. "You are my employer, thus I have assisted you; it would be best if no one misinterpreted it because nothing will happen between us again. Mr. Evan Knight." Evan's smile fades, and hurt can be seen in his eyes. Bella gets up and walks out from there. ***************** Evan was enga

    After finishing her meal, Bella left for home. It was evening, and she arrived at her building's elevator. Someone was already inside, and the door was about to close. If she did not arrive inside in time, she would have to wait for a long time or go up to her destination via stairs, both of which are not good for her health, according to her, because there was slight swelling and pain in her leg, and pregnancy side effects had begun to appear. Bella hurried towards the elevator, hoping to catch it before the doors closed. Bella begs whoever was inside to stop the door, and the man does so, and in time, Bella reaches inside the elevator. Bella sighs of relief. She thanks the man profusely, explaining her situation and thanking him for his kindness. As the elevator begins to ascend, Bella leans against the wall, trying to catch her breath and ease the discomfort in her leg. She silently prays that the rest of her day will go more smoothly than this close call. “Thank you, Mr.?” “J

Evan turns to see Jackson and Evelyn . Evan said, "Hate? I've been restless since I met Bella. I can't believe she'd ever cheat on me, but it doesn't matter anymore; I love her so much that I don't care. It doesn't matter what she did or didn't do; I lost her once because of my folly; I won't lose her again; and I love and want my wife back."

    "Wow, were you going to inform me once the baby had been born?" Jason chuckles as he removes the papaya from her plate. Bella stares at him. "I thought it was vital for you to know that I am pregnant with the baby of the man you saw at the restaurant yesterday; he is my ex-husband." Jason stares at her. "Did you get divorced recently?" "No. Two years ago." "But now, baby? "This is a complicated story. Bella had tears in her eyes, and I want you to have no expectations from me. Do you understand what I'm saying?" Jason slides his chair closer to her and takes Bella’s hand. "Bella, I'm not one of those people who believe in things like love at first sight; it's all nonsense. I like you, it's true, but I have no malicious intentions. I believe that men and women may be excellent friends if their connection is maintained with total honesty and respect; we can be good friends with whom to share our sorrows and anguish." Bella stares at Jason. "I pledge to never hurt or j

Of course, I trust you completely because you're my brother, but I wonder why you hired an unethical employee here; does she even know how to work here? Is she trustworthy? Adrian said, "What kind of spell has this girl cast on you that you still trust her?" Evan looked at him angrily. Bella was hurt by his words, and tears welled up in her eyes. She wanted to slap Adrian; after all, it was she who had done everything, but everyone present there was staring at her, and once again, her dignity and character were being questioned.
