Chapter 2071 The Inside Job
In that moment, Gareth’s words brought Elisa back from her anger. Yes. I can’t give in to the schemer’s intentions.
Otherwise, I would just be playing into his hands.
With a hoarse voice, Elisa replied, “Okay.” This reassured Gareth.
After surviving that ordeal, Elisa arrived outside the entrance of the building.
Looking up, she saw a construction worker standing on the roof, with more than half of his body leaning. over the
railing.
He held a long banner in his hand that read: Unpaid debts are killing the workers!

sound on TV, it can’t change your malicious nature. I just want to ask, netizens, how could you trust such an evil
woman? Isn’t it said that the public’s eyes are sharp? Now everyone has been deceived by your facade, and I am
here to expose your true colors to everyone!”
Instead of getting angry, Elisa laughed. She had heard over the phone before she arrived how he had been
complaining about the company’s heartlessness and his own tragic circumstances. As soon as I arrived, he started
shouting my name. This was clearly planned in advance. If I were to guess, there are probably quite a few people
below who are working with the man upstairs.
Seeing Elisa arrive, Bella hurried over with a worried expression. “A-Are you feeling better now? I didn’t want to
rush you over like this.” Bella glanced at the person upstairs and said helplessly, “I just couldn’t handle the situation
anymore.”
Elisa patted Bella’s shoulder. “You’ve done well. Leave the rest to me.”
Bella nodded, her face still filled with worry, feeling a deep sense of guilt in her heart. Why am I so useless? Even
when I’m trying my hardest to do something, there are still times when I face unsolvable problems!
Elisa sensed Bella’s melancholy and comforted her. “Don’t worry. I’ll handle it. You’ve already done very well. If you
were perfect at everything, then I would be the one who should be scared.”
With a joking tone, Elisa spoke, trying to lighten the mood.
But other than that, she simply didn’t have tinie to think further. The most important thing at that moment was to
resolve the predicament at hand.
After comforting Bella for a while, Elisa immediately went upstairs.

In that moment, Bella fell into despair.
“Don’t be upset. This isn’t something you can control, nor is it what you wanted. It’s all the machinations of those
with hidden motives, unavoidable as it is.” Mike appeared behind Bella without warning, giving her quite a scare.
Bella snapped out of it, looked at him, and let out a sigh of relief. When did I start feeling this way? Mike gives me a
sense of security. It all started with Elisa. Somehow, whenever I see Mike now, I feel at peace.
Bella shook her head, her eyes filled with a melancholic emotion.
“No. It’s not like that. The fact that these workers could reach the top floor without any hindrance indicates there’s
a mole in the company, likely in a high position… It’s my fault. If I had discovered this earlier, none of this would
have happened,” she explained.
