Chapter 564 

Due to the chilly weather, Bella stopped taking her kayak out to the back of the villa. However, she remained disciplined in keeping up 

with her workout regime. 

Bella, dressed in skin-tight pink athletic wear, sprinted on the 

treadmill. Her face was flushed as she sweated profusely. 

Steven held a towel and bottle of water ready for Bella. He reported softly, “I compared the guest lists released by Chairman Thompson. 

and Gregory and found that at least 50% of the names are on both.” 

Bella remained indifferent. “That’s to be expected.” 

“I’m still a little worried.” 

Steven voiced his concern. “Madam Celeste is having the birthday 

celebration at the KS World Hotel, while Shannon is having hers at the 

Salvador Hotel. Once again, both companies are at odds.” 

“Get your facts right. Who would want to be associated with Salvador 

Corporation’s wicked witch? She’s shameless to have her birthday on 

the same day as Aunt Celeste.” Bella had the breath to ridicule 

Shannon, even though she was running. Shannon is the one looking 

for trouble, but we’re having the party in Savrow, not Hatchbay. I’m 

afraid=” 

“Are you afraid that the guests would extend the courtesy to Gregory and not Wyatt, since Gregory was born and bred in Savrow?” 

“Nothing goes past you, Ms. Bella.” Steven flattered Bella. 

“You always worry over nothing.” 

Bella got off the treadmill. Seeing that she was drenched in sweat, Steven held the towel up to dry her sweat. 

She snatched the towel from him and said, “I’ll do it.” 

Steven pursed his lips. 

He had a feeling that Bella had become distant. 

Even though he had admitted his feelings to her, they had talked 

things through. He expected nothing from her, but he could feel their relationship regressing. 

“The Iversons are on the guest list. Not only that, I dropped an invitation to Ryan, and he was over the moon. He agreed to decline. 

the invitation to the Salvadors’ party and attend Aunt Celeste’s 

instead.” 

Bella shifted her gaze away from Steven’s dejected face and wiped 

her sweat. “The Iversons and Hoffmans are attending our event, and 

they are important people. Those who can’t decide will soon know 

who to pick. The era of Salvador Corporation and the Iverson Group 

dominating the business world is over because KS Group will stand in 

their way once I become the CEO. The Thompsons and the Iversons. 

have a long-standing relationship, and Ryan supports me. I wonder if 

the undecisive will still accommodate Gregory’s invitation.” 

Steven nodded. “That’s true.” 

Bella took the bottle of water and sipped on the straw. She did not 

even look at Steven the whole time. 

“Ms. Bella.” 

Steven called out to her in a sad voice and asked cautiously, “Have I 

done something wrong?” 

Bella shied away from his gaze. “Huh? No.” 

“I did. I know I did.” 

Steven’s face was flushed with panic. “What did I do wrong, Ms. Bella? Tell me, and I’ll change.” 

“You have done nothing wrong, Steve. I just think that you’re nearly 30. Your world doesn’t revolve around me. You should have your own 

life and find time to date someone.” 

“Ms. Bella…” 

“My sister, Amelia, has always been close to you, and you guys still 

get along fine. I can tell that you like her too.” 

Bella was sincere in setting them up. “Why don’t you two try dating? 

Don’t stress out about it, though. You come from a good family, and 

Wyatt considers you a godson. No one will stop you from being 

together with Amelia. In fact, we can’t be happier.” 

“I appreciate the thought, Ms. Bella.” 

Steven’s heart raced, but his tone was firm. “I’m nice to Ms. Amelia 

because she’s your sister and Chairman Thompson’s daughter. It’s my duty to serve her too. Plus, we grew up together. She’s like a sister 

to me.” 

— 

That night, Justin finished his work and returned to Tideview Manor. 

The temperature dropped rapidly in the last two days. It would not be 

long before they welcomed snow.
