Secret Crush

With an apologetic smile on her face, Lily said, "I'm sorry. I got something to do. Have you been waiting for a long time?"
With a smile, Leila led the way, and Lily sat down opposite her. Then Lily took the topic to the point without saying other
superfluous words.
"I came to you today to carry out the plan ahead of schedule."
Leila raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why do you want to do it in advance?"
Lily glanced at Leila and took out the phone. She found today's headline of entertainment news. Then she handed the phone to
Leila and said, "Leila, as you can see, the headlines of entertainment news in recent days are all about Bertha. Although some
small things were involved, it is also a publicity for her. If things go on like this, I'm afraid I won't have any chance to fight back
before I make a move."
Leila understood. She turned to look at the screen and saw a bright smile on the screen of Lily's phone. Bertha looked pretty, but
she was a bit coquettish in her demeanor. Maybe this was the so-called indecent demeanor.
Having known Lily's intention, Leila didn't hesitate but said, "Since you are so eager, why should I refuse?"
Hearing her words, Lily breathed a sigh of relief. Lily smiled at her and said, "Thank you for your understanding, Leila."
Leila smiled but said nothing. She was thinking about how to let Bertha be hooked.
‘After the last incident, she's already wary of me. I'm afraid it's difficult to succeed this time.’ Leila thought.
After saying goodbye to Lily, Leila went back to the company. The air in the office was quite cold. When Tansy saw Leila, she
nodded slightly with a touch of timidity in her eyes, which had nothing to do with her character. Perhaps Tansy was scared by
what happened today! Perhaps she hasn't thought that the innocent Miss Leila on the surface would actually have such means.
After calming herself down, Leila began to think about the appointment she made with Lily. When she was at her wit's end, she
got a call from Bertha. It was just as the saying goes that one could find her way at any time.
There was someone, and there was something that would come to her before she took any action.
Bertha sounded anxious on the phone, "Leila, you are so despicable!"

Hearing this, Leila raised her eyebrows. ‘I haven't done anything yet. How could I be so despicable?’ Her puzzle was answered
by Bertha's next sentence.
"By taking advantage of the love you get from Max, you frame me up. What else can you do except for relying on men?"
Leila was unhappy to hear that. Obviously, Bertha relied on men. Although Leila also relied on Max at present, Bertha was not
qualified to say this to her!
"Bertha, I think you misunderstood me. I haven't told him anything about you. I can't accept your misunderstanding."
At the other end of the phone, Bertha snorted lightly and said in a cold tone, "Do you think I will believe what you said? How
could he treat me like this if you hasn't said something to him? "
After careful consideration, Leila still thought she didn't say any word about Bertha in front of Max. All of a sudden, a scene
flashed through her mind. It was the first time that Bertha slapped Leila in the face, then she was interrogated by Max after she
came back.
Only for once, Leila thought there would be nothing after he asked. She didn't expect him to take any actions. But now, was the
thing that Bertha was talking about done by Max?
"Bertha, even if we talk over the phone, things couldn’t be stated clearly. How about we meeting each other?"
Leila drew Bertha into the trap she set step by step, but Bertha didn't notice it at all. Bertha was going to get even with Leila. Now
that Leila came to her by herself, Bertha didn't need to say anything more.
The situation was obvious. Both of them had their own ulterior motives when they met. It was still unknown what the result would
be.
In the afternoon, Leila stayed in her office for the whole day, being busy with getting familiar with the documents of the board of
directors. When Freddy knocked at the door, she looked up at him with a smile. "Freddy, what's up?"
Freddy bowed and scraped, with a very flattering smile on his face. He said: "Miss Leila, have you forgotten the thing you asked
me to do?"
Leila paused and thought about what she had told him. It seemed that she asked him to do something about the board of
shareholders. Then she looked away and asked, "Have you finished the thing I asked you to do?"

Hearing her question, Freddy knew that she had remembered. He quickly replied, "I have almost arranged everything in the
board of shareholders, but there is one more person that it’s hard for me to deal with."
Leila raised her eyebrows and asked, "Who is he?"
Freddy hesitated for a while, seeming to be thinking about the diction. Leila glanced at him, and knew that the last person he
mentioned should be a threat. Leila said, "Freddy, say what you want to say."
Hearing this, Freddy felt relieved and said, "There is a shareholder on the board of shareholders, who has occupied 10% of the
shares of our Song Group. He has never agreed to let you continue to stay in the Song Group, Miss Leila."
Leila paused and asked, "What's his name?"
Freddy said, "Matias."
Leila has heard of the name "Matias". He has already been a shareholder when the Song Group was just established. He was a
cousin to Sophia. Just by guessing, Leila knew that the shareholders would impeach her due to the rumor spread by him in the
middle of the party. The reason was simple. After all, he was the uncle of Daisy.
In fact, Matias wasn't a big threat to Leila. However, since he gained more and more shares in the company in recent years, his
status was getting more and more stable, so what he said had a certain influence in the board of shareholders. Currently, it
seemed to be a big problem. Moreover, the relationship between Daisy and him would not be ruined easily. However, if Leila
didn't have a try, how could she know it wouldn't work?
