Chapter 518 Stop Messing Around... Mom's Still Here!!
"What terrible timing!"
Bella chuckled and said, "Actually, I don't dislike eating ostrich meat. I guess that's a bit disappointing for you."
"It's just a little hard to tell, that's all."
"You're overthinking it. The food abroad is all over the place. Never mind those heavy-flavored things like fermented seabirds, but a lot of protected species end up as delicacies on tables over there."
"Even an ostrich would turn its nose up at that 'white people food' stuff. Not many people with study-abroad experience are picky eaters."
After reserving a private room, Bella picked up the menu and said with practiced ease, "I've actually eaten here quite a bit, but I always get delivery. I rarely come to the restaurant itself."
"I'll have the kimchi set meal, one plate of hand-torn beef, one spicy Ostrich meat and tofu hot pot, and one mixed three-shred salad, thank you."
The food was served quickly, and seeing that she truly didn't mind at all and was eating with relish, Luis felt a sense of powerlessness, like his fist had punched cotton.
"Don't be so childish, alright? In my heart, you've always been very mature."
Bella placed a piece of meat on Luis's plate and said with a smile, "If my guess is right, Minda has already tried to seduce you. The woman who went to the hotel with you today was her."
"You seem to have a good handle on things."
"I guessed. Dominic can't be relied on now, and those Taiga family members are watching hungrily. She definitely needs to find a strong leg to hold onto to keep her job."
Bella sneered coldly. "She's a very realistic woman. Back then, she tried to secure her position by getting pregnant and pushed out her own biological sister. She just never imagined that I'd be the one to take the top spot in the end. All that effort for nothing..."
"Her biological sister?"
Luis's face was full of questions.
"Dominic's main wife, or rather his ex-wife, who is David's mother, is actually Minda's older sister."
Bella shook her head and said, "Anything goes when money's involved. You wouldn't understand even if I explained it."
In her heart, Luis was a lofty, high-and-mighty playboy who definitely wouldn't understand the messy affairs of these local families.
"Dominic wants to recoup his losses from City Garden Phase Three. The asset liquidation plan is almost out."
"He'll use his 15% stake in Gestor Palace and some of his assets to get the Leon family to withdraw from Tiger Real Estate. You could call it a friendly parting of ways. That way, he can fully focus on integrating the Taiga family's resources."
While eating, Bella narrowed her eyes and smiled. "It doesn't really matter whether I divorce him or not at this point. Both sides have taken some losses getting here, but overall, the Leon family hasn't lost much."
"It's just that Leok is living in a dream world. He actually had to carve up City Garden Phase Three, which can be quickly cashed out on."
"He doesn't even look at himself in the mirror. If it weren't for me mediating, that old fox Dominic would have taken care of him long ago."
Bella smiled contemptuously, completely dismissing the eldest son of the Leon family.
"Next up is the division of the Leon family..."
Bella said with a fierce look on her face. "I don't care about the other assets, but I'm determined to have Gestor Palace. If Leok dares to mess around, I guarantee he'll get what's coming to him."
Luis rolled his eyes. "Why are you telling me all this? I'm not interested."
"Hehe, I just couldn't help it, I wanted to show off a little to someone."
Bella gave a charming smile, her face full of ambiguous meaning. "Luis, no matter what, this time it was all thanks to you. If it weren't for Captain Jab, I would have been squeezed out by Dominic teaming up with that idiot Leok."
"If you're going to thank me, don't just use your mouth. I prefer things a bit more practical."
Luis smiled ambiguously.
"Just wait a little longer, I'm still seeing a therapist."
Bella was momentarily stunned, then smiled helplessly. "Sometimes I don't know if you're lecherous or not. Minda is far worse than Nina, yet you slept with her the first time you met."
"Nina all but delivered herself to your door, yet you haven't touched her. It makes my head spin."
"I told you, I'm much more interested in you."
"There you go again. Honestly, I didn't say no, but at least give me some time."
The meal was far from peaceful; Bella's phone kept ringing, all work-related calls.
Currently, she was taking advantage of Leok's hospitalization to start purging his confidants from the hotel. This was the most critical moment. With Dominic's interference gone, she was focused on becoming the master of Gestor Palace.
She barely ate a few bites before rushing off. Luis, finding it dull, headed home.
No one was home. Upon asking, he learned the community had organized a vote, and his mother-in-law, as a member of the Phase I owners' committee, had gone to a meeting.
Luis accompanied his wife for a walk. After they showered together intimately, Lily went to bed early, falling into a deep sleep before ten o'clock.
In her own words, even after sleeping with Nina for two nights, she still felt like a stranger. They had physical contact but no intimate actions.
Luis could understand his wife lacking the courage for that, but the problem was, why was Nina so useless? She was an experienced, pure-blooded lesbian.
The next morning, as soon as his wife left for work, Luis couldn't wait to get up. He slipped directly into his mother-in-law's bedroom and, amidst her drowsy murmurs, eagerly lay on her chest.
He fondled the full, large breasts that had nourished his wife, sucking on the pretty little nipples, greedily enjoying his mother-in-law's plump, sexy body.
"Stop messing around... Mom's still here!!"
After pestering his mother-in-law intimately for a while, making her face flush with embarrassment, Luis finally let her go to the bathroom.
Ruth answered a phone call, said "Got it," and then began to dress up and put on makeup. She carried the LV bag her sister-in-law had given her and put on her jewelry, looking particularly wealthy.
"Mom, what's going on?"
Luis knew his mother-in-law well. If she were going to play cards, she wouldn't dress up so meticulously.
Ruth said while blow-drying her hair, "That bitch Aunt Kiara got released. A manager from the property management office took all the blame. Damn it, as soon as she got out yesterday, she tried to start trouble with me."
"Mom, are you okay?!"
Luis got a bit nervous hearing this.
"What could happen to me? It's just that the vote for the community merger starts in a couple of days, and the two property companies are starting to lock horns."
The community people were very active, organizing teams to vote door-to-door. All the owners had no objection to the City Garden community merger, because the living environment would be better afterwards.
The community merger was a done deal. The only question was which property company would stay.
The results were in after two days of voting, and the relevant approvals were issued immediately. Such speed was naturally due to Dominic's behind-the-scenes push.
