My Beautiful Boss novel Chapter 144

Bella sat on top of him, startled before she realized it. Peter stared at her, making her feel annoyed and ashamed.

"Did you get your fill of snooping yet?" asked Bella, irritated.

"Nope," Peter answered without thinking. Then, realizing the situation, he covered his eyes hurriedly. "I didn't see anything," he said.

"When did you get in? Why didn't you knock?" Bella asked as she tried to look at him through the spaces between his fingers. Flustered, she stood up.

"I did knock, maybe you didn't hear it," Peter lied, getting up from the desk, disappointed.

He had such a good view from under her. He wished he were able to enjoy it more before it disappeared.

"OK, maybe I didn't hear it," said Bella, nodded. And then on her next breath, she added,"Oh, what is the color of my underwear? I forgot what it is,"

"It's black, an it's lacy," he blurted out. "It is nice. I did not know you are so fashionable, Bella."

Oh, no!

Bella flared with anger. She grabbed a knife from inside a drawer and pointed it at Peter. "You didn't see anything, huh? I will kill you!" she roared.

Shit!

Peter was frightened. "You must be kidding, Bella. You can't do this!"

he exclaimed, scared for his life.

Strange noises of a fight came out from the CEO's office for a few minutes.

Ten minutes later, Bella sat exhausted on the sofa. "Come over here and I'll cut you up," she said pointing at Peter.

"No way!" Peter shook his head. "Bella, as a CEO, you have to pay attention to your image.

It is unbecoming for a girl to use a knife to solve her problems. You should learn to use kindness. Do you understand?" Peter advised.

"Are you calling me unkind?" Bella said, fuming.

Shoot!

Her knife went straight at Peter.

Peter trembled and tilted his head to avoid it, immediately.

With a clunk, the knife hit the wall and fell to the ground.

Peter sighed with relief. "Bella, are you on your period? I can leave now if you do not want to see me," Peter said.

"Period? What do you mean?" Bella paused. Realizing Peter's agenda, she yelled,"You bastard! How dare you try to distract me! I'm gonna kill you!"

Bella got up, rushed at Peter and started to punch him out.

This time, Peter didn't move. Instead, he took it all in.

Without weapons in her hand, she wasn't a threat to Peter.

Finally exhausting much of her energy, Bella started to breathe heavily. "When did you hook up with Amaris?" she suddenly asked. "What is your relationship with her?"

She dreaded the answer.

How dared he approach Amaris! A more interesting question, though, was how did he even approach Amaris?

Amaris was one of the richest women in Golden City. She was sought after by several men, but no one had ever managed to get a hold of her after her late husband passed away.

Peter was brilliant, but it was still quite impossible for him to even catch her attention.

"I... I didn't," Peter replied. 'Oops, ' he thought to himself, 'no wonder Bella's so angry.'
