Chapter 2082
However, the heat in his eyes quickly froze. He saw that Bella was with a boy of the same age. They looked like a pair of young lovers. Ben's handsome face froze as he expressionlessly looked away.
Bella wanted to say hello to him at first, but his expression was stiff, so she could only pretend to forget him and stand side by side with Thomas. "Bella, what color do you like?" Thomas did not notice anything unusual and asked the girl beside him in a low voice.
"I... I prefer a single color. Any color will do." Bella whispered to him.
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that there was someone staring at her from behind.
Ben looked at the girl who was very close. Her long black hair was hanging on her back. Her hair was soft. They were so close to each other that Thomas seemed to be able to smell a faint fragrance from her body.
Ben felt somehow anxious, and his heart beat quickly a few times. He clenched his palm tightly and cursed, "Damn it!"
How could he feel this way about a girl he had not known for a long time?
The fifth floor arrived. The elevator opened. Thomas deliberately held Bella's hand as they exited the elevator. Bella quickly broke free and walked out.
Ben's eyes narrowed, and his mood suddenly became extremely bad.
"Mr. Ben, the next project will be officially completed next month. The meeting tonight ..."
"Cancel the meeting tonight." Ben was in a bad mood, and the negative emotions caused him to involuntarily postpone his work. When he discovered this, he was also shocked.
"Don't cancel. Continue." Ben had already adjusted his mood in just a few seconds. He was no longer a child and could not treat his work casually.
Behind him stood a few men with confused faces.
Bella picked two female bags for Thomas. Thomas felt very satisfied, so he looked at the time and said, "It's almost dinner time. Let's eat together. I'll treat you."
"No need, I still need to buy something. You can go back." Bella did not want to accept his kindness anymore. They weren't close before. It was only because his sudden request made it impossible for her to refuse that she would help.
Thomas did not insist and only smiled, "Then I'll go home first. See you at school tomorrow."
After Thomas left, Bella heaved a sigh of relief. In fact, she came here because she was bored and had nowhere to go. That was why she wanted to come to a crowded place.
In the past, when her mother was at home, she had to obey her mother's rules. She would be scolded when she returned after 10 in the evening. Now that her mother was at her grandmother's house, her time was at her disposal. She really wanted to relax herself.
For Bella's supper, she had beef noodles and two steak bones. As expected, delicious food could cure her bad mood. After eating enough, she queued up to buy a cup of milk tea. She watched the time and decided to watch a movie.
After watching the movie, it was already half past ten in the evening. Bella had an indescribable feeling, as if she was intentionally trying to break the old life. It was already half past ten. But she would not be scolded when she returned home at this time.
Bella held a cup of milk tea and walked out. But when she stood outside the door, she suddenly thought of it. It was so late, so was there a bus?
Bella's brain buzzed. It seemed like she had to take a taxi.
Bella stood by the side of the road and waited for a taxi. At this moment, many people had just finished the movie and came out. There were many people but few taxies. Bella would not scramble with them. She leaned against a tree and waited for a taxi when there were fewer people.
Ben had just finished his meeting when he was about to drive home when he swept his gaze over the girl on the roadside.
He was slightly stunned. It was so late, why was she here alone? Where's her boyfriend?
Ben slowed down the car. Was she waiting for a taxi?
Just as he was thinking about this, Ben's car had already turned around and happened to stop beside Bella.
He rolled down the window and shouted, "Bella, are you going home?"
Bella bent down and looked into the car. She was stunned. Why was it him again?
"Are you going back as well?" When Bella saw him, she felt a trace of joy in her heart. If someone can pick her home, she would still be very happy. "Get in the car. I'll give you a ride." Ben nodded and said indifferently.
"Thank you!" Bella didn't show him any courtesy. Perhaps she didn't think this man had any bad intentions.
Ben did not expect that she would actually be willing to take his ride. The bad mood of the night suddenly went away.
Bella sat in the car and realized that

inexplicably restrained.
"By the way, I still don't know your name?" Bella felt that she should call him by his name so it will be polite. "What? Are you worried that I'm a bad person?" Ben was in a good mood and suddenly wanted to joke with her. Bella immediately shook her head. "Of course not. If I think you're a bad person, I won't take your car."
"My given name is William." Ben did not say his full name, because he was famous in this city.
"Oh? A local?" Bella thought about it carefully. It seemed that Williams were quite rare here.
"No, I'm here to do business." Ben came here only because he had a project here that he temporarily lived here.
"Oh!" Bella nodded and didn't dare to ask any more questions. She sat quietly and occasionally looked out the window at the scenery.
"Where's your boyfriend? Why isn't he with you?" Ben drove his car with concentration, but he always wanted to ask this question, so he pretended to be curious.
"He's not my boyfriend, he's my classmate." Bella hurriedly explained.
"Oh." Ben glanced at her, was he just a classmate?
Is she lying?
Thinking of this, Ben felt annoyed again. How dare she lie?
Bella felt that this man didn't believe
her. She was also very helpless. Yeah, tonight, she and Thomas really behaved like a couple. But, this was the truth. She and Thomas
really weren't a couple.
Along the way, the atmosphere in the car was very quiet. Fortunately, it wasn't far from home. It took a few turns to arrive.
Ben directly drove the car to the
underground parking lot. Bella discovered that this man had a special garage. Moreover, the garage was very big, and could- four cars. Now, there were only two

cars parked, leaving two empty lots. Bella thought for a moment and suddenly asked him, "Mr. William, are these all your parking spaces?"
"Yes." The man replied indifferently.
