Chapter 111: Shameless Man
At The Quantum Capital Building.
“Achooo…”
Suddenly, Bella sneezed the moment she entered her office lobby.
“Did you catch a cold?” Leo, who was waiting for her, was surprised by her sneeze.
Bella slightly shook her head. “No. I’m healthy… But, I guess someone gossiped about me.” She smiled when she saw Leo chuckle.
“How could you believe something like that?”
“Geez… Looks like working too much, enough to make your humor leave you,” Bella said as she walked away from the executive elevator.
“Bella, did you forget the elevator? Why are you walking in that direction?” Leo asked, confused. But he still hurried to match her step.
“I need coffee, alright!” Bella glanced at him as she headed to the famous franchise coffee shop in the corner, Moon Coffee.
She felt blessed; there was a coffee shop in this building. She thanked whoever let this Moon coffee open in their building.
“Oh my, you haven’t changed? Are you still addicted to coffee?” Leo was surprised. He shook his head while following her to queue at the cashier to order their coffee.
Before nine in the morning, Moon Coffee was surprisingly bustling, with a few customers occupying almost all ten tables.
There were two people in front of them, buying coffee. They waited while chatting.
“It’s better to be addicted to coffee than addicted to alcohol, right?” Bella answered casually as she looked at her cell phone to check something important that she could read.
However, her mood dropped slightly when she saw a series of texts from someone in New York.
“Yeah, I agree with you!” Leo responded with a light chuckle.
Bella ignored him; she was immersed in reading a series of texts sent by Jack.
After a few more seconds, she looked up to see Leo, “Tsk… Tsk… I can’t believe your ex-boss is spamming me with his text messages,” she showed Leo her phone screen.
Leo only needed to read a few texts and laughed, “Hahaha, he’s so afraid you won’t come today. Well… actually… He’s the one who wakes me up in the morning. He calls me and makes sure to remind you.”
“What the hell does he want? Why does he insist on me taking care of this…” Before Bella could finish her words, someone made a noise from behind, attracting their attention.
They turned to look back and saw a stout, towering man with a black oversized suit trying to break through the queue.
“Excuse me, gentlemen, I need to order coffee quickly. Please, can you give me the priority?” He said with a kind tone, but his sharp, demanding gaze made everyone look at him with a get-lost kind of look.
The stout, towering man stepped forward once more, repeating his plea.
This time, a middle-aged, short-haired woman retorted sharply, “Do you think you’re the only one in a hurry? Can’t you see it’s almost nine in the morning? We’re all in a rush, dear. Get lost!” The elegant lady dismissed him with a wave of her hand, ignoring his presence entirely.
Grinding his teeth in frustration, he refrained from further confrontation, wary of offending her again. He noted the woman’s branded clothing, indicating her potential high status.
Nevertheless, he persisted. He urgently needed to purchase coffee before facing Laura’s wrath. Thus, he continued to move forward for someone willing to give him their spot.
…
Leo couldn’t tolerate the stout man’s persistence any longer.
Seeing his turn approaching, Leo observed as the stout man attempted to persuade the person behind him.
Leaning closer to Bella, Leo whispered, “I can’t believe there are shameless men like him in this country.”

“Such men are rare, but they exist not only here but all over the world,” she replied, her gaze fixed on the woman who was now placing her coffee order at the cashier.
Bella is also displeased to hear and see the man’s impolite attitude. She couldn’t wait to get her turn and left the coffee shop. Next time, she will ask Sam to buy a coffee for her, afraid she will encounter such a shameless man.
“Haha, you’re right…” Leo chuckled, dismissing the commotion behind him. When he saw Bella’s turn approaching, he felt relieved. Soon, they will be out of this place.
Glancing at Leo after she placed an order, Bella asked, “Should we offer him your spot? I can order for you and let him take your place!”
Leo was taken aback. He leaned in again, “Boss, since when did you become so generous?”
She smiled, “Maybe he’s in a hurry because he needs to use the bathroom?”
Just as Leo was about to respond to Bella, the man finally approached him.
“Hello, handsome,” he greeted politely. “I won’t repeat myself since I’m sure you heard me before, right?” He grinned.
“So?” Leo replied with a deadpan expression.
“If you give me your spot, I’ll give you a gift,” the man said mysteriously.
Suddenly, Leo felt a sense of déjà vu. He remembered hearing this kind of sentence before. After a few seconds, he finally recalled what had happened at the Sushi Tei restaurant.
Leo couldn’t help but feel a shiver down his spine.
Seeing that the handsome man in front of him didn’t respond, the man continued whispering, “Handsome man, I’m the manager of Laura Kiels.” He glanced around, wary of others overhearing.
“Yeah… That movie star, supermodel… You must know her, right.” He continued when he saw the handsome man’s suprised gaze.
Leo, “….”
“My client needs coffee urgently because we have to head to the next destination. If you give me your spot, I’ll give you her photo with her signature,” the man proudly stated, awaiting the handsome man’s answer.
‘What the heck! Why do I keep running into Laura Kiels?’ Leo couldn’t believe his luck was this terrible.
“Handsome man, please…” The man persisted with a pitiful gaze, but Leo, feeling nauseated, ignored him and leaned closer to Bella.
“What do you think? Should I give in?”
Bella didn’t respond.
Leo chuckled, knowing Bella must have heard Laura’s name but was pretending not to care. She must be pissed off, too.
“Sorry, my friend didn’t agree, so…” Leo shrugged.
Laura’s manager was left speechless. He couldn’t believe someone refusing an autograph from Laura Kiels.
