Chapter 262: Roses From Him
“Boss! Hold up. There’s something you need to see…”
Bella stops and turns to see him. She is surprised to notice he is holding a bouquet of white roses.
“Huh!? Do you want to give that flower to your crush? Who is the lucky lady who finally tamed your cold heart?” she asks, smiling and teasingly at him.
“Ha ha ha…” Leo can’t help but laugh at hearing her words. “Well, looks like you misunderstood, Boss. These beautiful roses are for you. Someone just delivered them,” He says while handing her the flowers.
Bella is taken aback.
“Is that for me? Are you serious?” Bella asked. She hadn’t expected her husband to send her flowers after they had just separated a few minutes ago when Tristan dropped her off before he headed to his office.
“Yeah, your name was clearly written on the note when my secretary received it from the courier. Please hurry up and take it before anyone sees us. They’ll think I’m trying to woo you by giving you white roses,” he chuckles.
“Ah, for me. Geez… My hubby is such a sweet man. To give me this sweet surprise…” Bella’s smile grows as she accepts the roses.
After she smells the roses’ fragrance, Bella looks at Leo again and says, “Thank you, Leo. But I need your help… I’m about to visit Stefan upstairs. Can you ask someone to put these in my office?”
“Sure,” Leo says, taking back the roses. His eyes fixed on the card tucked in the middle of the flowers. He reads the sender’s name and looks surprised.
He immediately looked at Bella, who was walking ahead to the elevator. “Boss, wait… I guess these flowers aren’t from Boss Tristan,” he said while running after her.
Bella’s steps halt once more. She frowns, looks at Leo, and accepts the card from him.
When Bella reads the sender’s initials, her knees turn jelly. She almost falls, but her hands grip the wall beside her to steady herself.
Still unsure about what she read on the card. Bella read the names written on the cards a few times to make sure she didn’t read them wrong.
‘Sean…’ Bella whispers under her breath while swallowing hard, trying to remain calm and hide her shock. ‘How could he still have time to send me these flowers?’
She knows how strict the rules are at his base camp. They are not allowed to make contact with anyone outside the base camp.
Bella heard from Sean that personal communication devices could not be turned on once they entered the base camp area—even for a young general, a team leader like him.
‘Did he ask Amanda again to send the flower?’ Just thinking about it was enough to make Bella’s face turn red. She feels embarrassed.
…
Leo is even more confused when he sees Bella’s face turn stiff as she reads the card.
He can’t help but ask, “Boss, who the hell is SS? I know this isn’t Boss Tristan, right? His initials should be TS, not SS.”
“Ding!”
The sound of the elevator arriving provides her with an escape. She doesn’t bother to answer Leo’s curiosity and immediately enters the elevator, ignoring him.
“Talk to you later, bye!” Bella smiles while pressing the closing button, but the door won’t close because Leo holds it. “Leo? What are you doing?”
Leo smiles at her but then calls a female staff member who happens to be walking toward them. After instructing her to put the flowers in Bella’s office, he immediately joins Bella in the elevator.
“Alright, Boss.” Leo smiles as the elevator door closes. Now, tell me who SS is!?”
Bella vented her frustration at the curious Leo. She didn’t want to discuss Sean’s matters, especially with him. It would be troublesome if he knew about Sean Spencer.
She ignored him while looking at the elevator door.
“Ding!”
When the elevator door finally opened, she rushed out and asked, “How is Stefan’s progress?”

Leo is suspicious that Bella is hiding something from him. But when he hears Stefan’s name, his steps suddenly stop.
“Huh!? Why did you stop?” Bella asked. She also stopped and turned to him. Seeing his dark expression, she immediately knew something must have happened last night in this place.
She stepped closer to Leo. With a worried look, she asked, “Ugh, Leo… did my brother successfully seduce you last night?”
Leo’s eyes widened, looking displeased at Bella.
“Damn it! What the hell are you talking about, Bella!?”
“….”
“Gosh! Since when did you have a hobby to curse like this, Leo?” Bella smiled while shaking her head. “You know what? You are the most polite man I have ever known among the four of us… Did Jack and Harper influence you?”
Leo’s shoulders slumped. Indeed, when arriving in this place, he always cursed, mainly when he lived with Sam.
“Sorry, I was just annoyed when I heard Stefan’s name. Your little brother has ruined our peaceful night; we couldn’t sleep at all. He kept us busy until the sun barely rose on the horizon,” Leo said, annoyed. “You saw my panda eyes, right? I’m exhausted!”
Bella’s face became red after hearing his words. She feels embarrassed about their intimacy.
Now, she was sure that Stefan was interested in Leo. But what surprised Bella was when she discovered that Stefan was also interested in Sam.
‘Gosh! Stefan, you are such a naughty man…’
Bella sighed deeply before saying, in a sorry tone, “Leo, I’m sorry to hear that, but I can’t help you if my brother likes you.”
Leo, “…”
Bella spoke again before Leo could say something, “I have something I want to clarify. You said my brother is also interested in Sam!? So last night, you guys…doing threesomes!?”
“What the fuck are you talking about!?” Leo’s eyebrows wrinkled as he stared at Bella.
‘Did she misunderstand something? Why did she assume the three of us? Damn, this woman’s mind was indeed wild…’ Leo can’t help but vent his sarcasm in his mind, glaring at Bella.
“Huh!?” Bella frowned. “Did I guess wrong?”
