Bella smiled inwardly when she saw Gabriel's serious expression. She then cleared her throat and said, "Gabriel, I will leave you to rest. The drugs are no longer in your system but your body still needed some time to recuperate. Give yourself some time to recover before leaving this place. Also… I already sent all information to your email and here." She handed him a flash drive. "Here is a copy of the email. Just in case. I really hope that you can help me save my sister from that monster." Bella gave a sincere smile before leaving Gabriel alone.

One cannot underestimate the protagonist in every world and even Bella was aware of that. In her mind, the protagonist can be a magnet of everything. Fortune and misfortune, allies and enemies. They are formidable folks who can make someone love them so much or hate them to the point of wanting to kill them.

In every world, the protagonist can make a genius act rashly out of jealousy or survive a nuclear attack just because of luck. They are simply that formidable.

After leaving the room, Bella immediately sent some message to Mo Li before going to a cafe so she could get herself some of her favorite coffee and check out the news. Right now, the city seemed to have forgotten about what the mayor did to his daughter. All the articles about that incident on the restaurant simply vanished, removed from the net. Of course, she already expected such a move from someone like her father. However, what surprised Bella is the fact that her father didn't make his people publish something that could ruin her reputation.

In fact, the old man had been very silent lately. However, Bella knew that the old man was still closely watching her every move. The mayor already knew that Mo Li would really run in the next election and he must be looking for someone that could run against Mo Li. After a few minutes in the cafe, Bella immediately started working on some of her projects for Mo Li. This was nothing but small market research about some of the new ideas that he came up with and had talked to her about.

While this was not something that was part of her quest, Bella felt that doing this for him was only right. After all, in this world, Bella didn't have any influence or ways to save the male lead. Moreover, the time frame when she arrived was already in the middle of everything. She simply didn't have the time to prepare. Additionally, she wasn't also very rich. All of her money was on stocks and even if she used it to fight against the Villain, she would simply lose.

Bella was only being practical.

"Is this seat taken?"

Bella lifted her head and met Daniel Rogers eyes. She frowned and shook her head. "No." Daniel smiled in response as he sat on the chair opposite to Bella. The smell of wood mixed with lemon wafted through her nose. For some reason, Bella felt that she had smelled this scent before. However, a part of her was certain that this should be the first time that she smelled something like this.

Bella immediately faked a smile. "Mr. Rogers, what a coincidence." Of course, she knew that this wasn't a coincidence. First and foremost, this cafe is located inside a very private villa. This was owned by someone who loved her beverages and decided that she could use her hobby and place to create a cafe with an ambiance of an old European house. Most tourist doesn't really know this place.

Daniel squinted his eyes at her. "This wasn't a coincidence." His honesty surprised Bella. Was this a part of the villain's character? If he said this to someone else, Daniel might have a chance to succeed in these intimidation tactics. Too bad, this doesn't work on someone like her.

"Oh?" she lifted an eyebrow, the smile on her face completely vanished. It was replaced with an icy gaze. "Was it because of my sister?"

"I think you are a bad influence on your sister."

"Explain."

"You are quite bold," Daniel said, his gaze was as cold as ice. "Talking to me as if we are of the same status. You are quite lucky, I wouldn't stoop down to your level."

Bella fought the urge to roll her eyes. However, she said nothing and just bravely stared at the villain's eyes. Slowly, Bella realized something weird. If this was in the previous world, staring at a man like this would have easily intimidated him. She was certain that she wouldn't even dare to talk to the villain like this. For some reason, a part of her seemed to be scared of villains. Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #'s-redemption_17733026705591705/i-will-see-you-later_51255559436948711 for visiting.

However, this was no longer the case in this world. Bella didn't know if this was because of having enough confidence or it was because she is getting used to traveling in every world. All she knew was that she doesn't feel any fear towards this man.

"I suggest you stay away from her."

"Excuse me?" Bella asked. Did he just ask her to stay away? "I don't even remember approaching Sarah. Is there something wrong with your brains?"

Daniel ignored her question. Instead, he snorted and said, "Since you met her, she had been in a daze and seemed to be in deep thought. Moreover, I discovered that she actually had your number now. I already told her that getting close to someone like you who doesn't value her own family would bring her nothing but endless problems. However, it seems that she is not listening to my words. She would soon call you for a meeting. I suggest you decline and tell her that you don't want to see her again."

Bella just stared at Daniel, disbelief flashed in her eyes. So, this man wanted to isolate Sarah. He doesn't want to give her any options. If her guess was right, Daniel would soon do something and pin it to Bella, making Sarah hate her in the process. Wait… isn't this something that happened to Gabriel?

Was it possible that the person who urged Sarah to write the letter was actually this man?

"Daniel Rogers…." She uttered. "I was never expecting that you would be someone like this. Just how insecure are you to try and control her relationship with her own sister?" she squinted when she saw the dark look on Daniel's face. She was about to say something more when she noticed her phone vibrate. When she saw that it was Mo Li, she immediately answered it. Then she listened to everything that Mo Li told her.

Apparently, her previous thoughts about Bella's death being done by Daniel was not really impossible. Mo Li said that Daniel was actually seen on the Island a month before she left the university! Unfortunately, it would take Mo Li's people some time to trace Daniel's whereabouts or the people that he met while he was on the island.

To Bella, this was already enough for her to conclude that Daniel was indeed the person that ended the previous Bella's life. "Alright, I understand. I will call you back." Bella said before she ended the call. Then, she stared at Daniel. "First the letter and now this?" Bella continued.

"What letter?"

"Oh, you think I don't know about the letter that you made Sarah write for Gabriel? Wait… let me guess… you were the one who suggested this idea to my father, right?"

"You— " As expected, Daniel's face turned darker. He growled at Bella as he put his fist on top of the coffee table. "You will not talk about this matter to Sarah."

"Or?"

"Or you will regret ever coming back to this place." His tone was cold, low, and grave, his handsome face contorted into an ugly scowl. "You know… I am very capable of ruining your life, right?"

In response, Bella snorted. "You have forgotten something, Mr. Rogers." Unfazed, Bella slowly smirked. "My life was already ruined. I have been through a lot in the past, don't even think that a simple threat would make me tremble under your icy gaze." Mockery laced her gaze as she chuckled.

"Is that so?" Daniel lifted an eyebrow. "Then what about your husband? I mean… your current husband." Seeing the change in her expression, Daniel laughed. "You think, I don't know that he is the reason for your confidence now? What do you think would happen if I kill him? Do you think, someone else would marry you after this? Do you think someone else would save you? Tsk. Tsk. Bella Qin… you completely underestimated me. I am simply someone you couldn't afford to offend. I cannot only ruin you and your future career and I can also include your husband with you. He can say goodbye to that political career that he wanted. He can say goodbye to the Mo Family's dream of staying relevant in this City."

When Daniel saw Bella's face turning red, he chuckled. "I will see you again, Bella Qin. I will see you again."
