Chapter 981: I Told You to Target Her, Not Apologize

Confronted by Benedict's icy gaze, Belle couldn't help but feel a pang of unease. "Mr. Sharp, I..."

"Belle, I trusted you because you've been at Simsang Entertainment for so long. But how did you repay my trust?" Benedict looked at Belle, disappointment evident in his eyes. "I asked you to target Sandy, but you went and apologized to her instead."

After Benedict's words sank in, Belle stood up. "Mr. Sharp, if I hadn't apologized, I might not have survived in this industry."

Leaning back in his chair, Benedict observed Belle. "Couldn't survive?"

Belle nodded and hesitated before explaining the whole situation. "I had no other choice."

After hearing Belle out, Benedict fell silent for a few seconds before finally speaking, "You have a big brother?"

Belle nodded again. "Yes, Aaron is my brother. We come from the same family."

Having heard rumors about Anthony in the entertainment circle, Benedict began to weigh his options. Offending Anthony would lead to consequences he couldn't handle, considering their vastly different backgrounds.

After a brief pause, Benedict dismissed his previous thoughts and told Belle, "Alright, let's leave it at that. You and Selena can do as you please, and we'll forget about what happened between us." Curious about his intentions in calling her back, Belle asked, "So, why did you want me to come back in the first place?"

"I originally had something for you to take care of, but now I don't think you're the right person for the job, so I won't send you," Benedict replied in a low voice.

Unsure of Brandon's sudden departure, Sandy turned to Stella and Yanis. "Is he jealous?"

Yanis nodded. "I smell jealousy in the air."

Stella added, "I smelled it too."

Sandy clicked her tongue. "I'll go comfort him later."

Outside the door, Lane was taken aback when he saw Brandon. "Who are you?"

Brandon extended his hand to Lane. "I'm Brandon."

Lane recognized Brandon and shook his hand, still feeling a hint of hostility from him, though he couldn't figure out where it came from.

After entering the villa and exchanging greetings with Yanis and Zane, Lane headed to the kitchen, where Bonnie was cooking.

"He seems interested in Bonnie!"

As Lane left, Sandy spoke up, and Yanis pulled her back. "We noticed that too."

Sandy grinned mischievously. "I think he's got a crush!"

When Sandy glanced at Brandon and saw him looking at her, she cleared her throat. "Anyway, Brandon, would you like some tea or maybe some fruit?" Brandon sat next to Zane and replied, "No need. Just sit still."

After responding, Brandon turned to Zane and asked in a low voice, "Does your girl act this way too when she sees handsome men?"

Zane glanced at Yanis and confidently said, "No, she only has eyes for me."

With that, the doorbell rang again.

Yanis went to open the door and greeted Ivan with a warm smile. She then engaged in a private conversation with him, walking towards the small living room nearby. Observing the scene, Brandon shook his head with a hint of helplessness.
