Chapter 419 Having Doubts about Liya
"What''s wrong? You''re so distracted. Can''t you at least pretend to enjoy shopping with me? Lottie
found it funny. Belle said that she was going shopping with her, but in such a short period of time, she
started to feel restless. Judging from her wandering look, it was most likely that she was thinking about
her husband, Calvin!"
"s, why was this woman so useless?"
"Lottie, don''t creep up on me like that! You scared me. Belle saw that it was Lottie and she couldn''t help
but to chide her. Being frightened by Lottie, she snapped out of her thoughts."
"Hey, it''s you who was distracted. You kept looking around. I couldn''t see you. So, I found you here. I
was just standing over here. Lottie rolled her eyes. ""Can''t you be more focused? What in the world are
you looking for? Is your husbanding over?"""
"It''s not like that. Belle pulled Lottie to the side and asked in a low voice, ""Lottie, did you just hear a
woman''s name, Liya, being called?"""
"Liya? Lottie shook her head and asked doubtfully, ""I didn''t hear this name at all. What''s wrong?"""
"No? Belle was even more perturbed. The woman''s voice was loud. Although Lottie was in the fitting

room, it was not far away and was even closer to the two women. Since Lottie didn''t hear anything,
was it really her illusion?"
Nothing. She shook her head and was no longer in the mood to resume shopping.
"Anyway, Lottie was so immersed when trying on clothes. Not to mention the name of an irrelevant
person, a thunder would not attract her attention either."
"Lottie could see that Belle was not in the mood. After trying a few more clothes, she finally ended the
shopping trip Tristany."
Belle drove to the underground parking lot of Grand Hyatt Apartments.
"By the time she returned to Grand Hyatt Apartments with bags of new clothes, Calvin had note
back yet."
"Larry had finished preparing the meal. When she saw Belle, she went back to Harvey Manor."
"Belle was deep in thought as she sat on the sofa. If the Liya she met in the mall was the employee
from Harvey Group, her impression towards her would turn sour as she dared to go shopping during
working hours. "
"Liya was usually well-behaved and knew how to please others, especially her superiors."
"As for such a subordinate, Belle actually didn''t like her much. If she put all her efforts into pleasing
others, she may not perform her job well."
"In addition, this newly established globalwork studio not only requiredputer expertise but also
personnel with good character. It was because many trade secrets of the Harvey Group were in the
database. There would be potential risks if they hired an unprincipled employee."
"As she thought about this, she fell asleep."
"When she woke up, it was almost two o''clock."
She lifted her sleepy eyes and took a look.
"The house was quiet, and Calvin had note back."
"Sitting there in a daze, she was lost in thought."
"Since she started working, they came back to rest every day at noon. Why didn''t he show up that
day? They had an appointment."
"She took out her cell phone and wanted to call Calvin. She looked at the time and was afraid that he
would be sleeping soundly somewhere. After all, he had been working endlessly in the evening. She
decided to give up. "
"After having a meal and taking a shower, she went straight back to thepany."
"Without Calvin pestering her, she arrived rather Tristany."
"As soon as she signed in at the front desk, she suddenly thought of something and went to the 86th
floor."
The globalwork studio was quiet.
There was still a few minutes before work. There should be no one present yet.
"Belle didn''t know what she was doing there, but she came to see if the woman named Liya had left the
office that morning!"
She didn''t think that she would be able to meet anyone there at this time.
"However, when she snuck into theputer studio, the scene she saw still surprised her."
"In theputer studio, a slim figure was concentrating on work. Even when Belle walked in and stood
next to her, the person did not notice her at all."
Belle''s bright eyes blinked and she lowered her head to have a look.
Liya was indeed busy with the sales procedures chart of the Harvey Group.
"She tilted her head slightly, narrowed her eyes, and made a soft grunt."
"Ah, Ms. Morris, hello. Liya was startled by Belle''s light snort. When she saw Belle, she immediately
stood up and greeted her respectfully."
Hello. Belle nodded and looked at Liya from the corner of her eyes. She looked tired. It seemed that
she had been working the whole morning.
"Belle thought for a while and said, ""Aren''t you going to rest at noon?"""
"It''s fine, Ms. Morris. Liya hurriedly shook her head. ""My house is far from here and I can''t make it
back at noon. All I want is to finish the task you assigned to me as soon as possible."""
Liya smiled and spoke seriously. Her attitude was sincere.
"Really? Belle smiled and praised her. ""Then, you are very dedicated. You are an excellent employee
of Harvey Group."""
That''s what I should do. Liya blushed and she hurriedly replied in a serious manner.
Where do you live? Belle looked at her serious expression and asked after thinking for a while.
"My house... My house is far away, in the northern suburbs. She answered in a low voice, and a hint of
sorrow shed across her drooping eyes."
"Oh, is anyone living with you? She asked with concern."
My family... There''s no one left in my family. There''s only me and my Dad. Liya didn''t expect her to ask
about her family. She told her the truth.
"Oh, how is your father? Belle looked around the office before resting her gaze on her face again and
asked."
"My father is ill, Liya said."
"Oh, he''s ill, is it serious? Belle was shocked, her face was full of worry and she asked out loud. "
"Only then did Liya feel that she had spoken too much, but she couldn''t think of anything to exin at
the moment. She could only shake her head with a smile and say, ""It''s okay, my father is fine. Ms.
Morris, please have a seat. I''ll get you a ss of water."""
She changed the topic and was about to fetch some water for her in a caring manner.
"It''s alright. I''m going to work soon. Well, although thepany has a lot of work, health is important
too. Don''t work overtime at noon from now on. If you have no ce to go, you can take a rest in the
lounge. Belle smiled and said, ""If your father''s illness worsens, then you should inform thepany, if
you''re facing any difficulties. Just let us know if you need help."""
"Okay, thank you for your concern, Ms. Morris. Hearing Belle''s caring words, Liya was delighted and
smiled sweetly."
"Oh, by the way, did you leave the office this morning? When Belle finally went out, she turned around
and looked at Liya deeply. "
Belle wanted to hear her say whether she has left thepany or not.
"I... Liya''s eyes widened and she immediately shook her head. ""Ms. Morris, there was no need for our
department to have to head outside this morning. Everything is fine."""
"Oh, that''s good. Belle''s heart sank and she smiled. ""Take a seat. I''m leaving."""
"After she walked out of the room, Belle didn''t know what to feel."
"Goodbye, Ms. Morris, Liya said in a friendly manner, following her to the door."
Belle went straight back to the office.
"She sat on the sofa, lost in thought."
"Liya''s father was ill and her family was in poor condition. This was obviously the Liya she had met in
the mall. She had gone shopping at Pacific za, but she denied it well. There must be something
strange going on!"
"However, she was still working overtime at noon. What was she thinking?"
"If Liya had told her the truth, Belle would treat it as if it had never happened. She would think that Liya
was honest, and she might even forgive her for making a small mistake."
"However, she was obviously lying."
"In other words, it meant that Liya was not a trustworthy person."
"Regardless of her intentions, she could not continue working at the globalwork studio."
"On the surface, Liya was respectful to her superior, was polite, and thoughtful. However, she was
mysterious. Such a woman was certainly potentially hazardous to thepany''s future. "
"For the first time, Belle felt that the establishment of thework studio was too rushed. She should
have listened to Calvin and developed it step by step, instead of being in a hurry."
"It was impossible for her to fire Liya due to her intuition and without any evidence. This was
unreasonable. So, she could only wait and watch."
Calvin was not in the office.
"If he was not in the office at noon, where did he go?"
Belle felt uneasy. She had indeed encountered some strange things. She wanted to tell Calvin about it
but was worried that he wouldn''t believe her.
"Throughout the afternoon, Belle was perturbed. As for Calvin, he did not return to thepany at all."
"Yuri, did Mr. Harvey mention where he will go today? Sitting in the office, she felt nervous. In the end,
she could not help but pick up the phone and asked the secretary at the front desk."
"When Yuri heard Belle''s voice, she smiled and said, ""Ms. Morris, Mr. Harvey went out Tristany this
morning. He did not tell us where he was heading."""
"Is there any social engagement? Such an answer made her more worried. Generally, social
engagements were held in the evening, but it could also be at noon."
"Ms. Morris, there are no records of any social engagement. Yuri flipped through the records in hand
and quickly replied."
