The Temptation of Adultery 2 Chapter 9
Chapter One Hundred and OneIf that night the image of the two women was drastically different, then now, it’s the same, only reversed. Bella, as a patient, was dressed in hospital clothes, her face pale and weak, while Pearl radiated beauty and nobility, pure and elegant.Since Pearl was standing with her back to Bella, Bella couldn’t see her expression. Aside from the sound of the wind, no one spoke, making the atmosphere between them strangely tense.Finally, Bella broke the silence. “So? You asked me to meet you up here on the rooftop, but you’re not saying anything?”Pearl stood by the rooftop railing, turning around to face Bella. She looked at Bella with a sneer.“Why are you standing so far away? Are you afraid I’ll do something to you? We’re best friends, aren’t we? Why are we so distant now?”Bella didn’t expect Pearl to say such words. If Pearl really considered them best friends, she would never have had an affair with Max and schemed to hurt her.“Of course, I’m afraid. I

Chapter One Hundred and TwoThe news of Pearl being arrested by the police on charges of extortion quickly reached Max. Max had no time to rest, as he frantically tried to handle and destroy incriminating documents. However, documents accumulated over many years were not so easy to dispose of.As Max struggled to deal with the mess, he continuously cursed Pearl, calling her a foolish woman. "If she wants to die, she should do it on her own! What a stupid woman."Now, Max finds himself in a situation where he doesn't know what to do. He couldn't understand how ignorant Pearl had been in resorting to blackmailing Bella and then getting arrested by the police. Wouldn't it have been better if she had just disappeared from here?Although Pearl wasn't a famous or influential figure, those who had business dealings with Max were aware of the ambiguous relationship between the two. These partners also knew of Max's plan to take over the company; in fact, they had been secretly supporting him.

Chapter One Hundred and ThreeThe more Max struggled, the more the two officers tightened their hold, causing him both pain and frustration."Are you people insane? Do you even know who you’re arresting? Let go of me!” Max shouted, turning to Bella, “Bella, help me, please. Don’t just stand there watching!”Bella, who had just been feigning weakness and sadness over her “best friend” going to prison, now looked at Max with utter indifference, her gaze filled with sarcasm and disdain."What are you talking about, darling husband? If I helped you, wouldn’t that make me an obstruction to law enforcement?"Max looked at Bella, bewildered. “What?”Seeing Max’s confusion, Bella had no patience to explain further. She raised her voice to address everyone present. “Ladies and gentlemen, honorable court, I am truly grateful that you all remain here so we may proceed with the next hearing immediately.”Bella glanced at Pearl, then at Max. “Yes, Max. You are indeed the next one after your little

Chapter One Hundred and FourThe next trial was also the trial of Max. Bella entrusted her lawyer to handle the case, including the divorce, as she felt she had fulfilled her obligations and wouldn’t have much time to concern herself with her ex-husband going forward.She also heard from her lawyer that her ex-husband had been shouting constantly in the holding cell, demanding to see her. He didn’t hesitate to play the pitiful card to try to earn sympathy from those around him.The thing that amused Bella most was that he kept claiming he loved her, blaming her for not letting him touch her and for her illness that prevented her from conceiving. He argued that he was forced to find another woman to bear him a child to “save” their marriage. According to him, he cheated only to preserve their marriage.Bella felt amused, unable to comprehend how he could be so shameless and oblivious to the wrongness of his actions. Even setting aside the infidelity, his plan to take over her father's

Chapter One Hundred and FiveIt wasn’t as if Bella just realized the difference between her and that man now; it was just that now she was truly serious about the matter. Bella didn’t spend too much time waiting for Levi—whenever she wanted to see him, all it took was a phone call, and he would always answer as if he were waiting just for her call.Before Levi arrived, Bella had thought of simply being straightforward and saying that their relationship was over; after all, she had never been polite with him. However, when Levi walked in, Bella felt anxious and flustered. Levi was always a strikingly handsome man, and wherever he appeared, he became the center of attention. Fortunately, the café wasn’t crowded now, and her table in the corner went largely unnoticed.“It’s rare for you to invite me out like this; you seem to be in a great mood,” Levi said, pulling out a chair to sit down. His smile was gentle and affectionate, yet his gaze seemed as if it wanted to devour her.Bella tri

Chapter One Hundred and SixAfter that meeting, Levi didn’t call or message her, which made Bella feel relieved. Bella never really knew what this man was thinking or what he would do next, so when he didn’t agree to her proposal, she felt a bit anxious."I thought he might do something… like harassment. I feel so lucky," Bella said as she sat in her new office, specifically the deputy director’s private office.Ever since Pearl was thrown into prison and Max was held in custody, the entire company was in chaos for days; no one could have expected that their director would be detained and soon face imprisonment.Bella brought one surprise after another because most people in the company didn’t know that she was the chairman’s daughter and the legal wife of Director Cooper. They only knew their director was married, but he had a rather ambiguous relationship with his personal secretary.Lauriel was particularly shocked. When she learned Bella’s true identity, her face turned pale, and

Chapter One Hundred and SevenEveryone in the courtroom cast curious glances at Bella. They all knew this trial was initiated by a wife accusing her husband of infidelity and he had committed numerous despicable acts that harmed his father-in-law's company. Yet, the husband treated his ex-wife as a savior. No one could understand what miracle he was waiting for.Bella entrusted almost everything to her lawyer. Her lawyer was a renowned figure in the legal community—capable of turning even a murder charge into innocence. With such a skilled advocate and a solid case, Bella was confident of victory.As the trial commenced, Bella's lawyer presented all the evidence from the previous hearing, supplemented with even more detailed and compelling information. Every word he spoke left the courtroom stunned and buzzing with murmurs about Max. Max's already pale face grew even more ashen and lifeless, revealing his utter despair and helplessness.Max's lawyer could do nothing; the evidence was

Chapter One Hundred and EightBella was still thinking about the court case and didn’t realize there was someone else in her office."Mr. Martin, you should knock before entering," Bella said with a professional smile.Henry chuckled lightly. "I did knock; you just didn’t hear it. How’s work lately? Any difficulties?"Henry’s tone was gentle and friendly, but Bella found it a bit awkward. Ever since Henry returned to the country and took over the position of director, he often came to her office to chat. However, having not seen him for a long time, Bella still felt distant from the man in front of her."No issues. I’ll get used to it soon enough. What brings you here, Mr. Martin?" Bella asked, her tone clearly conveying a sense of distance from Henry."You don’t need to be so formal and serious with me. After all, we’re family…" Henry said lightly but hesitated when mentioning her divorce. "I heard you got divorced…"Bella’s divorce and her lawsuit against her ex-husband and his mist

Chapter One Hundred Twenty-OneAs Bella changed her clothes, she muttered curses under her breath, calling Levi shameless. He was clearly teasing her, but despite her displeasure, she could only ignore it. After all, this wasn’t the first time. Even though she didn’t know much about him, after spending so much time together, she could more or less guess his personality.While she was fumbling with the zipper at the back of her dress, she suddenly felt warm breath against her ear. Before she knew it, Levi was already standing right behind her. His hot breath brushed against her face, making Bella shiver involuntarily.A large, slightly rough hand touched her back and carefully pulled the zipper up for her. It only took a few seconds, but Bella felt incredibly flustered. Her cheeks flushed as she murmured softly, “Thank you.”“I don’t accept mere words of thanks,” Levi said with a chuckle, tightening his arms around Bella’s slender waist. “If you want to thank me, you’ll have to show it

Chapter One Hundred and TwentyLevi didn’t agree to his father’s request; he only smiled faintly and said, “Perhaps he already knows. Even though we haven’t contacted each other for a long time, he still knows quite a lot about me, doesn’t he?”The housekeeper spoke slowly, “No matter what, he is still your father. He still cares about you.”Levi chuckled softly. “Is that so? He cares about me? Ha… cares about me?” His displeasure was clear in his tone.The housekeeper pressed her lips together and lowered her head, not daring to breathe too loudly. Despite the age gap, she had never dared to speak much in front of the young master. The older he grew, the more he resembled his father—his mannerisms, his gaze, and even his words were cold and sharp, making it difficult for anyone to approach.She was about to quietly leave, but as soon as she took a step back, she heard him speak. “How old are you this year?”“I… I’m seventy years old.” The housekeeper was a bit surprised by the questi

Chapter One Hundred NineteenAlthough Bella was also a wealthy young lady, she felt incredibly small in this mansion. After Levi brought her to this room, he told her to wait and then left. Bella glanced around; though the room appeared quite old, everything was impeccably clean and gleaming."Perhaps the housekeeper meticulously cleaned this place. The fact that she can manage such a huge mansion all by herself is truly impressive," Bella murmured to herself in admiration. However, she couldn’t shake off the discomfort she felt when looking at the housekeeper. To be precise, the elderly woman seemed rather frightening.Everything in this room was ancient. The patterns and designs all indicated that they had been crafted many years ago. Not only the mansion but even the furniture inside bore traces of time.Bella didn’t dwell on it too much. She simply assumed that since the Levi family was an old and powerful lineage—perhaps second only to the royal family—it was natural for them to

Chapter One Hundred EighteenBella pressed her lips tightly together, clenched her teeth, and gripped her hands, but she didn’t dare show any dissatisfaction or discomfort in front of Levi. She forced an awkward smile."You really know how to joke. So, which part of the project are you dissatisfied with? Just say the word, and I’ll revise it to your liking. The contract too—what part doesn’t meet your expectations?"Levi was very patient. He clearly saw Bella’s reluctance and frustration but still listened to everything she said. He stood close to her, narrowing the distance between them, while Bella could only sit still, unable to move away."So as long as I say the word, you’ll do as I please? Is that what you mean?" Levi chuckled as he looked down at Bella.Bella felt she could no longer keep up her forced smile. She said, "That’s right, in the contract—"Before she could finish, he interrupted her, "Then let me take you home. Would you accept this simple request of mine?"The mome

Chapter One Hundred SeventeenAnd obviously, their conversation led nowhere. Bella returned home in an irritated and frustrated mood, yet there was nothing she could do about it. She angrily slammed her fist against the steering wheel."That shameless bastard! Is he insane or what? What does he want from me, clinging to me like a leech?"Levi was always like this. Now, he acted as if nothing had changed between them. No, to be precise, he acted as if she belonged to him. He always did whatever he pleased, completely ignoring Bella’s unwillingness.Just earlier, Levi had simply smiled, unfazed by Bella’s scolding. He said, "Are you free tomorrow night? Ever since I saw you at that bar, I haven’t gone back there. We should—""Enough! I’m not as idle as you. Tomorrow night, I have an important meeting with a business partner. And right now, I’m already wasting my precious time on someone as unreasonable as you," Bella cut him off, not caring about his expression as she grabbed her bag an

Chapter One Hundred SixteenAssistant Kim's question made Bella's mind freeze instantly. She looked up and asked, "What do you mean?""Possessiveness is something inherent in every person and every living creature. Even the smallest things, like keeping one's belongings, stem from possessiveness. The concept itself is simple, but when it reaches an extreme, higher and higher, there’s no way to escape or control it. The man you are trying to avoid and run away from, I’m afraid..."Assistant Kim stopped mid-sentence and stared at Bella. Even though she didn’t finish her words, both of them knew exactly what she was implying.At first, it seemed like Assistant Kim was giving a general example, but in the end, it pointed directly at Bella. Of course, Bella understood what she meant, but the phrase "no way to escape" seemed like an exaggeration.It was true that she wanted to avoid that man. It was true that he refused to end things cleanly with her. But it wasn't to the extent of being co

Chapter One Hundred and FifteenAs soon as Mr. James finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room grew noticeably tense. Bella furrowed her brows tightly—everything was changing too fast, and she still didn’t understand what was truly happening. Why was her father so anxious and fearful?Clenching her fists, Bella was determined to uncover the truth. If she didn't know what was going on, she wouldn't be going anywhere."Dad, I’m an adult now. You can’t keep treating me like an ignorant child. Keeping things vague like this will only make both of us more worried and exhausted. If you don’t tell me the truth, I’m not leaving. How am I supposed to know what will happen to you once I’m gone?"No matter what Mr. James said, Bella remained resolute. Besides, she saw no reason to run away. Even if Levi was truly a dangerous man, someone capable of controlling everything with just one hand—so what?It wasn’t that Bella was overly confident or arrogant, but she simply couldn’t predict Levi’s

Chapter One Hundred and FourteenBella looked at the steaming hot dishes on the table, feeling utterly exhausted and conflicted. She knew that the boss of the man who had delivered the food was definitely Levi, but what she really wanted to question was why he kept showing concern for her.Bella mumbled to herself, "Does he like me? Well, it makes sense. If he didn’t like me, he wouldn’t come to me to fulfill his needs. But if that's the case, then what he likes is my body, not me… How exhausting. Love… I don't want to go through that pain again..."In the kitchen, Bella sat alone in front of the steaming dishes. The atmosphere was gloomy and lifeless. She quietly ate, silently shedding tears, unaware of when they had started falling until a few drops landed in her food."What should I do now?" Bella forced a bitter smile. She was scared—terrified of enduring another heartbreak. Once was more than enough for her.The betrayal of the two people she trusted most was just a small part of

Chapter One Hundred and Thirteen“Hmmm… haaa… ugh… ugh… please… I… can’t take it anymore… hic… ugh… aahh…” Bella kept letting out intermittent moans, although the pleasure was coming in waves, this level of madness was really too much for her.The room was filled with sounds that made the listener blush with embarrassment, not only Bella’s moans but also Levi’s vulgar words that made Bella wish she was deaf so she wouldn’t have to hear what came out of this man’s mouth.“Damn. Baby, I’m almost there… look, I haven’t even come yet and you’ve already climaxed several times, you’re getting more and more sensitive.” Levi thrusted frantically, he tightened his grip on her waist, leaving clear red palm prints on both sides of Bella’s waist.Bella was in a daze from pleasure, as soon as she heard Levi speak, she immediately woke up, tears welling up in her eyes as she looked at him, her voice trembling as she begged.“Don’t… don’t shoot inside… pull out… ugh… hmmmm… ugh… I don’t want to… ple
