Aloof CEO: You're Gem To My Eye

It was almost autumn. Many people in academic dress gathered under the phoenix tree in the campus. They stood in a row with a smile on their faces.

"1, 2, 3 smile!"

A neat order made everyone cheer up and throw the scholar's cap far away in the air.

As soon as the voice sounded, there was also a burst of noise not far away.

"Bella, something bad happened. Your parents had a car accident!"

The figure in front of her disturbed her sight. When she heard the news, she couldn't believe it was true.

Before she could take off her academic dress, she followed the man and walked out of the campus in a hurry.

Outside the emergency room of the municipal hospital, she was restless. Although the temperature was not low now, the chair she sat in was getting colder and colder.

Seeing her like this, the people by her side also felt bad. He held her hand and comforted, "Bella, I'm sorry to let you hear this news."

He, Sean Li, was the schoolmate of Bella Ling. He was handsome and smart. He was widely acknowledged as the school hunk in the campus. But Bella Ling felt something was missing.

Perhaps it was because he didn't have the sense of security she wanted. Since she was a child of the Ling family, she had been loved by her parents.

She didn't know much about the outside world, especially love.

It was annoying that if someone she didn't like came to pester her, she thought. However, at this critical moment, no matter how much she didn't like him, she couldn't do anything about it.

At this time, what she needed most was to be accompanied by someone, which would be the greatest encouragement.

"It's okay."

Anyone who heard the news would be scared to death, not to mention her, who just graduated from university.

Leaning on his shoulder, Bella felt the temperature of his for the first time. She had never thought that his shoulder could be so comfortable.

Perhaps it was because she was too tired that Bella Ling fell asleep soon...

After a long time, the red light above the emergency room went out and several medical staff came out.

Before he could say anything, the person in his arms had woken up and rushed over, "Doctor, how are my parents?"

She grabbed the man's arm tightly with great strength, in fact, it was a sign of fear.

However, the doctor just took off his mask unhurriedly and shook his head helplessly.

At the same time, two beds were pushed out of the emergency room. She didn't understand why they covered her parents with white cloth.

She pounced on them madly, and Bella Ling couldn't help but feel painful.

"Dad, Mom, how can you leave me like this?"

Tears streamed down her cheeks, she didn't care about the people behind her.

"I'm sorry, Miss. We have to send the body to the morgue."

Knowing her pain, the medical staff's voice became feeble. They didn't have the heart to disturb her.

But what they said irritated her more!

"No way! I will never let them lie in that cold and wet place!"

She pushed away the man behind her with great strength. She didn't even notice it herself.

At this moment, she seemed to fall from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the valley, helplessly waiting for someone to rescue her.

"Bella, listen to the doctor. We have to complete the formalities before we can pick up your parents."

Seeing this, Sean Li didn't know how to comfort her. This was the only thing he could do for the girl he had loved for a long time.

"Bella, come with me. I will take care of you for the rest of my life."

Standing outside the door, Sean looked at Bella who was packing up and said softly.

It was not the first or two times that he asked her to move in, so that he could temporarily solve the problem of her residence and take care of her.

Of course, Bella knew that Sean liked her, and Sean was a perfect man. But somehow, she had never had a crush on him.

At most, she just treated him as a good friend, or even a brother.

Therefore, Bella knew that she couldn't agree to move to Sean's house, because it would only make Sean think that she liked him, and then cause more harm to him in the end.

"It's going to be demolished soon. You don't have a place to live now. Do you want to live on the streets?" Seeing that Bella ignored him, Sean stepped forward and said.

His eyes were full of love and hope, hoping that Bella could agree.

But the result disappointed him.

Bella put the last piece of clothing into the suitcase, turned around, tidied up her forehead and bangs, and wiped off the sweat on her forehead. Her ​healthy glow was more attractive.

"Sean, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I can't go." Bella said, shaking her head before he could continue.

"Yes, this place would be demonished soon. But my parents left some money for me. I can find a place to rent an apartment!"

Besides, I have graduated from college and started to be independent. I can take care of myself!"

Hearing Bella's words, Sean fell silent with disappointment on his face. But he still looked at Bella and forced a smile.

"In that case, I won't force you, but you have to promise me to let me find a house for you and help you move!"

Seeing the disappointment on Sean's face, Bella couldn't help but nod in agreement.

"Okay!" Sean cheered up and began to clean up the room with her.

While he was cleaning, there was a knock on the door. Bella was stunned, but she still tidied up her messy hair and went to open the door.

Outside stood a man in a black suit. The glasses hanging on the bridge of his nose made him look devious.

"May I help you?"

Bella asked with her eyes wide open. She was surprised to see the man knocking at the door, because she had never seen him before.

The man in a suit on the other side nodded slightly, adjusted his glasses and said politely, "Miss Bella, right? I'm your father's lawyer. He left a property to you. He planned to give it to you on your birthday, but the accident happened."

Speaking of this, the lawyer's face began to change, as if he sympathized with what happened.

Bella's eyes were filled with tears again, but she held them back because someone was around. She looked at the man in the suit in confusion and asked, "Is it the property left by my father?"

"You'll understand after a look!" The man in the suit said with a faint smile, and then handed the document in his hand to Bella.

It seemed that there was still father's smell on it. Bella looked at it carefully. She took a deep breath and opened the folder.

There was a thick pile of information in it. When she took it out, she saw the property ownership certificate, address and key of an ancient house.

Bella looked curiously at the lawyer in front of her, but the lawyer shook his head slightly. Apparently, he was not clear about this matter.

Without the consent, their lawyers could never open the seal and peep at it. This was the most basic principle as a lawyer.

"If you don't have any questions, I'll leave first."

Bella politely sent the lawyer out and turned to Sean with a smile.

"I was just thinking about finding a house, but I didn't expect to get one!"

Autumn was a sad word. It was easy to make people think of separation and loss.

"Bella, where is the house your father gave you? How about I drive you there? It's getting dark now. I'm worried about you."

Looking at her smiling face, he knew that he couldn't force her too much, or else the result would be different from what he wanted.

What he feared most was that Bella would hate him, so he did everything carefully.

But how could a kind girl like her hate someone so easily?

The sun shone on her beautiful face, and her skin was as white as snow. Under her slightly trembling eyelashes were a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to speak, clean and charming.

"Okay."

She walked past him and came to the tea table in the living room. She put her father's favorite tea set in a well made box.

Today, she wore a long creamy white dress, accompanied by the middle heels, looking very nifty and cool.

It had to be said that there were many beautiful girls in the school. However, he had never liked those active girls. But for her, that was the only throb in his heart.

He just wanted to see her every day, and her figure often appeared in his sleep although he couldn't figure out what love is....

"What are you thinking about? Why don't you come and help me carry the things?"

Seeing he lost in thought, Bella pretended to be angry and waved her hand in front of him.

When he came to his senses, her figure had disappeared in the living room. Standing there foolishly, Sean smiled at Bella, who was busy packing in the bedroom.

She was the only one in the crowd who was not attracted by his handsome face.

She turned a blind eye to him at first, and then they met and knew each other. Since then, he had tried every means to get to know her and get close to her. He knew that he couldn't do things too rush or it would only make her think him as a playboy.

He lazily leaned against the door, pretending to be handsome, but obviously he did not attract her attention.

He sighed and came to help her.

She raised her head and looked at all kinds of books on the bookshelf on the wall. These were all books that had been kept since her childhood.

Every time she took the entrance exam, her father would keep the books of the last semester. Sometimes he would get her unwillingness. Why did he keep something she didn't need?

However, her father told herself that this was the only evidence that she had ever had.

It had to be said that her father's love for her was beyond imagination.

They were regularly placed in the same place, but unfortunately, it was a source of sadness. In order not to cause unnecessary longing for Bella, she finally made up her mind not to take them away.

Noticing the hesitation in her eyes, Sean knew that no matter how hard he tried to persuade her, it was useless. After all, she had chosen to give up. No matter how hard he tried to persuade her to keep them, it would be in vain.

Finally, the moment the door was closed, everything that had happened in the past was gone.

A new starting point was about to start, but she didn't know how to move forward in the future.

In order not to cry in front of him again, Bella tried her best to endure the pain hidden in the bottom of her heart. However, no matter how hard she tried to hide, she couldn't escape from his eyes.

Perhaps only he could understand her difficulties. They had known each other for three years, and the relationship between the two had always maintained the position of ordinary friends.
