Chapter 43: 043 Date? Mr. Hale has plenty of time (2 updates)
Zoe Bell was dumbfounded. Did the kid have a problem with his eyes?
Zac Cruz couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter. William raised an eyebrow at him, “Is it funny?”
“No, not funny.”
“You should make a trip to the Bell Family.”
Speaking of the Bell Family, Zoe Bell also looked towards William, who simply said, “Your suit got dirty. It’s time to ask for compensation. Why not, if there is money to be claimed?”
Zac Cruz didn’t want to go and thought of leaving it to the lawyers. However, Wyatt Hale jumped in, insisting he wanted to go.
They had no choice but to accompany the young master on his trip.
Wyatt Hale usually appeared clueless but wasn’t a fool. He had a purpose for coming along, sitting in the passenger seat and seemingly casually asking, “Did my brother fall in love with your sister-in-law at first sight?”
Zac Cruz, clever as always, instantly understood and just smiled, nodding.
“Then how did they meet?”
“They met at a cocktail party before.”
“My sister-in-law had just broken off her engagement, so she had a fiancé then, right?”
“Hmm.”
“My brother was unrequitedly in love.”
“…”
Wyatt Hale frowned. Zac Cruz felt uneasy, wondering if the young master had discovered something. Half a minute later, someone clapped his thigh, “Worthy of my brother, even capable of poaching!”
Zac Cruz’s mouth twitched viciously,
Is this…
a compliment?

Bell Family
Last night’s incident had spread throughout Greenland, and Zoe Bell had completely fallen out with the Bell family. The shady deeds of Kevin Bell and his wife were also laid bare.
Most crucially: William had shown up to support Zoe Bell.
Overnight, the Bell Family had become the entity everyone in the circle avoided.
The entire night was filled with bad news.
This company didn’t want to cooperate; that company was demanding payment.
The Bell Group was strong, but it couldn’t withstand everyone withdrawing at once. Kevin Bell was so worried that his hair turned much grayer, and he didn’t sleep all night.
Just after seeing off a client who came to demand money, he heard that Mr. Hale’s assistant had arrived.
Kevin Bell, feeling as if facing a great enemy, immediately went out to greet him. When the car door opened, the first person to step out was dressed in black trousers and a black T-shirt, wearing large sunglasses and holding…a thermos.
Wasn’t this the kid who had confronted him last night?
Mr. Hale’s brother?
And a thermos? So young yet acting so mature!
Kevin Bell struggled to pick up a smile, “Young Master Hale, what brings you to our humble abode?”
“Is Miss Bell around?”
“She is. I’ll go call her.” Kevin Bell watched as this milk-scented brat strode into his house as if owning the place, which was absolutely infuriating!
Mina Bell, coming downstairs, was also stunned to see Wyatt Hale.
Then,
someone gestured with a finger, and Zac Cruz immediately took out the list for the suit compensation, tossing it in front of Mina Bell.
“Afraid you’d claim our family is bullying, we even included the depreciation. To round off, just give us 4 million. That’s trivial money for Miss Bell, right?” Wyatt Hale unscrewed his thermos and took a sip of water.
Having watched his father, uncles, and older brother put on airs, he had learned it quite well.
“4 million?” Mina exclaimed, “Are you robbing us?”
“Miss Bell, be careful with your words, I can sue you for slander!” Wyatt Hale’s tone suddenly turned severe.
“I didn’t mean that, but it’s too much…”
“Too much?” Wyatt Hale frowned, “That’s because you haven’t seen quality goods. This is designed by an international master, the latest model for the season, airlifted overnight. The various costs added up, so asking for 4 million isn’t excessive.”
“Miss Bell, you suggested the compensation yourself. Surely it isn’t because you can’t afford it?”
“I heard the Bell family is quite powerful and not about to go bankrupt, so this amount of money is nothing to you, right?”
Those words stung…
If they didn’t pay, wouldn’t it confirm the Bell family’s current financial distress?

“President Bell, cash, check, or transfer?” Wyatt Hale asked bluntly.
Cash?
Kevin Bell was so angry he clenched his teeth, not even worrying if it’d be too heavy to carry.
He had no choice, it was already difficult, but he still gritted his teeth and signed a check for him.
“President Bell is so generous; I won’t be polite then.”
Wyatt Hale left the Bell residence with the check, feeling very pleased. When he got home, he even shared his success with Zoe Bell.
“Sis, you should have seen how that green tea’s face turned blue with rage.”
“You’re really something.” Zoe Bell hadn’t expected the Bell family to willingly give up the money.
“Of course, I have to be. Let me tell you, I’ve seen a lot of people like her, putting on airs. The moment they meet someone tougher, they immediately cower!”
Wyatt Hale felt incredibly smug, and glanced at his elder brother who was sitting not far away, tentatively speaking, “Sis, can I make a request?”
“Go ahead.”
“Let’s go out for dinner tonight. You see, we had a total victory last night, we should celebrate a bit,” Wyatt Hale, always eager for fun and games, felt he was going to burst from being cooped up recently.
During the days his brother was away on business, he couldn’t always just go out and party, leaving his sister-in-law alone at home.
“Ever since I came here, big brother has been quite busy, and you two haven’t gone out on a date for a long time.”
Date?
They had never really dated!
Any typical couple activities, they hardly did any.
Zoe Bell glanced at William Hale, and the moment their eyes met, she just gave a resigned smile, “Your brother’s busy, or I would take you out…”
“I’m not busy today,” William Hale stated plainly.
Zac Cruz went crazy:
My godfather, my real father!
We were clearly busy today.
When did you learn to lie with your eyes open?
Getting to go out to eat made Wyatt Hale the happiest, but Zoe Bell took a deep breath. It was already hard enough to show affection in front of him, and now this was just throwing another wrench in the works.
Privately, she inquired to William Hale, “Wyatt must be starting school soon, right? When is he going back to Capital City?”
“His school starts quite late.”
“Is he staying until school starts?”
“I’m not sure. If you don’t like him, should I send him away?” William Hale raised an eyebrow.
Zoe Bell didn’t dislike him, “That won’t be necessary.”

Today, William Hale delegated the decision-making to Wyatt Hale, who chose the restaurant, making him incredibly excited since his brother was often dominant and seldom let him take charge.
Treated him harshly in the morning, yet appeared amiable and pleasant in the evening.
Wyatt Hale was astonished:
These married men, their faces change faster than flipping pages.
However, he didn’t dare go overboard, selecting a fusion cuisine restaurant that had a good environment, atmosphere, and reviews. Most who came here were couples, with roses, candlelight, and a view of Greenland’s nightscape, fully maximizing the ambiance.
William Hale glanced at his younger brother, who seemed…
rather superfluous!
Wyatt Hale, always carefree, passed the menu to his sister-in-law, then pulled out his phone to take photos and check in.
While picking the right angle and frame for his photo, he unexpectedly spotted a familiar face.
The corners of his mouth lifted:
Ah, isn’t that Young Master Fletcher who picked up the tab at Nightless last time?
