The President's Accidental Wife novel Chapter 1496

Upon hearing this, the secretary handed the documents over. Flipping through them with slender fingers, Charlie said," Just choose this girl named Bella."

"OK. I'll inform the personnel department first, and then I’ll bring her here.”

The assistant then walked out of the office.

She couldn't help thinking to herself, 'Does Mr. Morgan know that intern named Bella?’

Half an hour later, she came in again with Bella.

Although Bella was quite nervous, she still tried to calm herself down. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Morgan.”

"Well..." Charlie looked up from the documents and said, "You must have heard that you will become my secretary. Do you have any problems with that?"

Bella's heart beat quickly, and she didn't dare to look straight at him. Twisting her fingers together nervously, she said, "No.”

"You can leave now. My secretary will tell you the work duties later, and you need to accompany me to a dinner party tonight."

Charlie said without looking up again.

Bella nodded and said "Yes" in a respectful tone.

In the evening, Charlie took Bella to the dinner party. He was going to sign a very important contract concerning a major construction project.

The president of the other party was a lewd man. Within a few minutes, he glanced over at Bella’s body several times.

This made her feel quite uncomfortable, but she didn’t show any sign of unhappiness, and that president kept urging her to drink more.

Bella had no idea how to refuse his request, so she drank glass after glass without saying anything.

When it was her turn to propose a toast to Charlie, she also drank it up in one gulp. She didn't remember how many glasses of wine she had taken.

When that president persuaded her to drink again, Charlie said, "Well, please stop. After all, wine isn’t good for our health.”

Hearing this, that president quickly replied a "Yes" and stopped urging Bella. Since the burning feeling in her throat finally disappeared, Bella breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's late now. Let's get together the other day.”

Charlie stood up and signaled the end of tonight's dinner party.

Since it was too late, Charlie decided to send her home. He didn’t want any accidents to happen to his female employees who accompanied him to dinner parties at night.

Back in the ward, Charlie saw that Grace was watching TV on the sofa.

Seeing him come in, she asked, "Have you had dinner?”

He said "Yes", and she could smell alcohol on his clothes. In fact, he didn’t drink too much, but it was unavoidable for him to smell like that.

"Then let's have a talk.”

Grace went straight to the point. "Are you still going to treat me like this?"

"What do you mean?" he asked.

She continued, "We have been like two strangers these days. I admit that I did make a mistake about what happened in the restaurant, but Mom also has her faults, right?"

"She's still unconscious in the hospital, and I don't want to hear such words,” Charlie said.

"What kind of words? You don’t want me to speak ill of her, right? But what I said is true. Or do you think I should take all the blame?"
