Chapter 264 - Governor's Health
"Hmmm. I understand, I will make my people check her out." Mo Li immediately nodded. After a few minutes, the conversation turned normal again as they talk about food and some investments that Bella made. As expected, when it comes to money, Bella's energy was full, her face beaming. After dinner, the two enjoyed a few more minutes of talking over their wine before finally deciding to go to bed.
When Bella woke up the next day, Mo Li was no longer beside her. She immediately went to the bathroom only to realized a lot of kiss marks on her neck, even her chest was full of already purplish kiss marks. A sigh escaped her lips. How could Mo Li not restrain himself knowing that Bella was too skinny?
In the end, Bella could only finish her bath and quickly wore a turtleneck to hide her marks. Then she grabbed her bag and immediately went to Mo Li's office while chuckling. She was supposed to be the secretary and yet she was already late while her boss was already working. For some reason why found this amusing.
While on her way to the office, Bella used her phone to check the news and as expected, some news about Amy Sy and her father is already starting to surface on the net. This was because she was secretly sent some news regarding Amy Sy's bullying and using her father's name and connections to intimidate someone. Unfortunately for Bella, Amy Sy wasn't a celebrity or someone known even in the educational community. Because of this, the news is just not as eye-catching for everyone else. While some people who knew the father and daughter duo had reacted, it wasn't enough to cause some problems.
It seems that her last resort is to actually involve her father in this matter.
"You wanted proof that Mayor Qin is corrupt?" Mo Li immediately asked when Bella told him her plan.
"Yes."
For a few seconds, Mo Li turned silent as he thought about her requests. "Then, I can send it to you in a while."
This statement was enough to make Bella speechless. Suspicions clouded her gaze for a few seconds before she lowered her head and started typing on her laptop. Mo Li seemed so prepare about everything. The man already showed her that she was an expert in computers. Therefore, she wasn't too surprised to know that he already research the Qin Family before.
Just as Mo Li said, he sent Bella some of the evidence that she wanted to have for the mayor and vice mayor's. Aside from this, she also asked him to help her find something for the Sy's. Amy Sy and her father needed to go down with the Qin Family.
Everything had been going so smoothly that Bella couldn't help but wonder if this was her luck all along. Was this the effect of having a stroke of positive luck this time? 'Robot please show me my stats.'

She smiled inwardly. Currently, her luck was only 2 but it was already showing some good changes such as being able to marry someone like Mo Li. If this happens in every world then, wouldn't that mean she would finally have an easier time?
She could only hope that this wasn't just a one-time thing. After all, this system was too mysterious and it seems that it would work against her sometimes.
"Hm? What is going on?" Bella's thoughts were interrupted when she saw a group of people walking towards Mo Li's office. Bella's table was currently located just outside of Mo Li's office. This was something that she insisted on as she doesn't want this man to distract her. "Dr. Liu, did something happen?" She said before she grabbed her recorder and secretly put it in her space. She could easily take it out later.
"Miss Qin, there is really something."
Bella lifted an eyebrow when she noticed how Liu Cheng'er addressed her.
"I will talk to Mo Li, alone." Liu Cheng'er said before ignoring Bella. Of course, she was aware that this woman was Mo Li's executive assistant however, she was currently the VP of this company. Of course, her position is much better than Bella's! Meaning, she doesn't have to act cordial and could act like the boss.
Without waiting for Bella to answer, Liu Cheng'er instructed the group of people to stay outside first before saying, "Miss Qin, Instead of standing there in a daze, why don't you do your job and check the news instead? There is currently a big scandal that might involve our company. Please take note you are an assistant here." Of course, Liu Cheng'er immediately took this opportunity to treat Bella like this. In her eyes, Bella wouldn't dare say something against her in front of this many people.
After all, Liu Cheng'er was the VP while she was only a mere assistant.
"Dr. Liu, I think you forgot something," Bella's words stop Liu Cheng'er from opening the door.
"Hm?" she lifted an eyebrow at Bella as if silently challenging her to show her fangs in front of the executives.
"Please call me, Mrs. Mo," Bella gave a gentle smiled before she walked towards Liu Cheng'er and helped her open the door. This smiling face didn't show any anger or hidden irritation. To the other people, it looked like Bella was simply reminding Liu Cheng'er that she was already married. However, this was a huge blow to Liu Cheng'er.
Did Bella really have to remind her that she was already married to Mo Li? This was simply bullying! Liu Cheng'er's face reddened before she stomped her feet and walked inside Mo Li's office. Seeing the woman's dark expression, Bella continued smiling, as she told the others to take their seats at the small receiving area in front of them.
After this, Bella started reading the articles online and immediately realized what was wrong.
It turns out that the current diagnosis of the governor had been revealed to the public! If her guess was right, Mo Li's company should be the one handling the Governor's insurance. Meaning, they have knowledge about his current health problems. This diagnosis is private stuff, and the governor might have kept his current health status a secret.
Just like most VIP members of the company, the governor wanted to keep his files private. Now that it was out in the public, this means that the governor would soon hire lawyers to trace the leak of information and this would obviously involve Mo Li's company. Bella narrowed her eyes. Before she smiled and called Patriarch Mo to come here.
Bella thought this would be the best opportunity to make the Mo Family hate Liu Cheng'er! Isn't this like killing two birds with one stone? Bella looked at Mo Li's office. Sadly, she couldn't see what was happening inside because of the frosted glass that separated them. All she could see was the silhouette of Liu Cheng'er standing in front of Mo Li's table.
Meanwhile, Mo Li's lips were already lifted into a sneer as he listened to Liu Cheng'er's reports. "Really? You think my wife married me for this information?"
"This was the only reason why she would suddenly approach you all these years! Think about it! Her father must have enticed her to seduce you to get this information! I heard that her father wanted to run for the next governor! Mo Li just think about it! That Bella is clearly someone who agreed to marry you for benefits!
Mo Li snorted. "So, you are here to tell me that she was the one who leaked that information?"
"Of course! It can only be here! This company had been secured for years! There wasn't a single problem before she came into the picture. We don't really know if she secretly accessed your laptop while you are sleeping! Mo Li, I know how much you love this company! I saw you do your best to make this one of the best companies in the city. I can't just let some woman ruin this success and hard work! I implore you to call an all-out investigation! Let the culprit suffer and go to prison!"
"I see…" Mo Li squinted before leaning at his chair. "Then, call the meeting. I want it in an hour. Call the police officers, I am confident that the IT department would be able to find whoever leaked it in a few minutes."
Almost immediately relief flashed in Liu Cheng'er's eyes. She immediately started to praise herself inwardly for her action. 'So what if she was Mo Li's wife? I refuse to believe that Mo Li would choose her over his business! I know how much Mo Li worked to create this company! How could he let a mere woman ruin all this?' Of course, Liu Cheng'er hid the smile on her face as she walked out of the door and called the executives.
Yes, before Mo Li even agreed, she already took the time to call everyone out here. After all, she couldn't waste her precious time anymore. She needed Bella to leave Mo Li as soon as possible!
