The Clutches Of Hell Novel

Chapter 59
Christian’s legs were crossed while he leaned against the back of the chair. His voice was cold as he commented, “Then, you
should also be aware that the plummeting of shares caused by the misleading news would not be a fatal blow to the Thatcher
Group.”
“That’s for sure. The Thatcher Group has a strong foundation, so a small impact on its shares won’t cause anything except a loss
of a few billions. Chris, you are a businessman, so you should not know that you shouldn’t bear the responsibilities for an
unimportant person,” Bella slowly reminded.
“It’s definitely nor worth it if it was for an unimportant person.” He grabbed his knees while his right hand clasped his knees.
There was a cold light in his eyes as he added, “To lose a billion to eliminate someone who pushes my buttons? Well, that’s
worth it.”
Such a sentence had rendered the office in a state of silence.
One could even hear a pin drop.
The smile on her face froze before it returned to normal a second later.
She bypassed the broken fragments of the teapot as she wheeled herself backward. “Chris, you are being too solemn with your
words. Just like what I said earlier, I did not follow you or ask someone to track you. It’s also not necessary. I came to the Delta
Club because I merely wanted to discuss my brother’s engagement next month with you.”
Her figure was also reflected in Christian’s eyes, which gave rise to his indifference.
Christian took a cup of tea and brought it to his mouth when the memory of Victoria’s thigh full of blisters and scars suddenly
flashed in his mind. After that, he placed the cup down with a slight frown.
“If you are still uncomfortable with that idea, I can guarantee that I won’t come to the club without your permission in the future.”
Bella smiled bitterly.
“Oh.” He softly hummed without making her too annoyed. Then, he changed the topic. “You said that you came to discuss your
brother’s engagement next month with me, am I right?”

She nodded and softly replied, “At Mrs. Thatcher’s birthday banquet yesterday, my family is aware of how entangled Victoria was
with my birthday. My parents are worried that at the engagement party for my brother and Scarlett, Victoria will cause a scene.
That’s why I’m here to look for you.”
“Look for me?” The two words of ‘entanglement’ caused Christian’s eyes to darken while he felt discomfort in his chest. Then, he

gently fanned his shirt.
“Yeah.” Bella carefully observed his movements and slightly clenched her right hand before she quickly released it. “Victoria is an
employee of the club and you’re her boss. So, would you be able to arrange for her to work more for the days leading up to my
brother’s engagement ceremony? Also, please ask a few employees to keep an eye on her so that she won’t cause any more
trouble.”
When Victoria arrived at the hospital, the doctor used a sterile needle to puncture the blisters and clean the infection before he
used a gauze to wrap the wound.
Due to the large surface of the wound as a result of the scalding, the doctor required her to stay in the hospital to receive an
infusion.
After explaining some urgent matters, he then made his way out.
“You were scalded by tea?” Charlotte leaned against the wall as her gorgeous voice increased at the end of her question. The
tone that she used made her even more charming.
Most of Victoria’s right thigh had been wrapped in a gauze, which made lying down uncomfortable since she couldn’t move. She
hummed and supported herself into a sitting position with bond hands after some difficulty.
“Tsk, the subordinate is cruel.” Charlotte sighed and gossiped, “Did Mr. Thatcher said anything when you were scalded by Miss
Spritz?”
Victoria lowered her gaze and softly replied, “Let me head to work once my injury is healed.”
“He didn’t lecture Miss Spritz?” Charlotte stopped leaning against the wall and bent over to ask curiously.
“Nope.” It took a while after Victoria met Charlotte’s gaze to answer.
“His thoughts are difficult to understand.” Charlotte straightened her posture and suddenly said something inexplicably..

Victoria had no idea what that sentence meant and didn’t want to know either. She pursed her lips and embarrassedly asked,
“Miss Charlotte, can you help me to pay for the medical expenses? I’ll pay you back when we return.”
As she came out in a hurry, she had forgotten both her cellphone and wallet.
“It’s a workplace injury, so the club will pay for it. Don’t worry.” Charlotte stared at the scar on Victoria’s face and frowned. “It’s
such a pity that a beautiful face like yours has been scarred.”
Subconsciously, Victoria raised her head and her uneven bangs covered the scar as a result. “Miss Charlotte, thanks a lot.”
She didn’t have medical insurance. So, if the club would not reimburse her, the medical expenses this time would cost one-third
of her savings.
“Aren’t you tired of saying thank you all the time?” Charlotte raised her eyebrow and looked out the window before she
continued, “Your brother and sister-in-law are outside. Do you want me to call them in?”

Victoria shook her head without any hesitation. “No, thanks, Miss Charlotte.”
Vince and Tessa should be here to remove his bandages. If they know that I’m injured, they’d have to worry about me again.
“Alright.” Charlotte walked to the side of the bed and sat down. Then, she looked at Victoria before she cut to the chase. “Mr.
Thatcher broke your leg and asked you to work at Delta Club. Don’t you hate him?”
A pale Victoria thought, Do I hate him?
I definitely do, but I actually fear him more.
It doesn’t matter whether I hate him or not because I’m not that close to Miss Charlotte to be honest.
“Did I frighten you?” Charlotte chuckled with her bright features. “Let me rephrase my question then. Do you want to leave Delta
Club?”
After pursuing her lips, Victoria slightly frowned and wondered why Charlotte would suddenly ask her a lot of personal questions.
If she said yes, Charlotte could be unhappy.
If she said no, it was obviously a lie. .com fast update

Damned if I do, damned if I don’t.
“Forget it. I won’t tease you, so don’t panic.” Charlotte stood up and pulled down her skirt that was a little wrinkled. “I still have
something to deal with, so I’ll make a move first. As for your purse and cell phone, I’ll ask Gabrielle to pass it to you later.”
She suddenly stopped when she arrived at the door and turned around. “You better not think about leaving because someone
might not be able to accept it.”
After that, she grinned and walked away in a good mood.
However, such a sentence was enough for Victoria to grip the quilt tightly as she was stunned.
Miss Charlotte knows that I want to leave and said those words as a warning, right? Or is it something that was said in fun?
Her mind was already in a state of mess when Vincent and Teresa followed Gabrielle into the ward. Their presence had only
served to make her mind even messier.
She frowned when she saw Gabrielle, who avoided her gaze with a dry smile.
“How did you get hurt again? Your entire thigh must be injured since it has been wrapped. Is it a serious injury? Does it still hurt?”
The bandage of Vincent’s head was removed, but the scar that was the size of a thumb had still remained. His frowning only
made the scar turn into a ball.
He was already worried when he asked those questions, but when he saw that Victoria didn’t answer, he was so anxious that he
wanted to remove the gauze and see the wound for himself.
“You said that you wanted to visit Victoria. How would you be able to clean the mess if the wound gets infected?” Teresa swatted
Vincent’s hand away. After that, she sat on the bed and held Victoria while looking at the bandaged thigh. “Tori, it’s such a large
wound... Is the entire area scalded?”
As she spoke, her eyes were red-rimmed.
In the past, she had always envied Victoria because Victoria had been pampered by her family. However, the incident two years
ago changed everything.
