Billionaires with Benefits

Chapter 70: The Traitor

It was supposed to be the most romantic way to get a woman's heart. But Samuel messed it up by mentioning something that he should not do. He had no idea, of course. He thought that it was okay to call her Paula Anderson out of office.

"Anderson? Is the last name of Robert," the man in front of Paula said, piercing his eyes at her. "I heard that he has a daughter. So, is that you?"

"Ken-"

"So, you are not Eva Morgan?"

Paula gulped. She didn't know how to answer Ken's question. She was caught red-handed, deceiving a lot of people in the company.

"Ken, can we talk outside?" Paula asked. A flash of regret crossed her face, it was so vivid, Ken could see it.

However, Ken was not alone as well. Paula checked his table and found someone was with him. Someone that he should avoid meeting at all costs.

Ken came with Akane! When Paula realized it, her guilt disappeared suddenly, turning into anger. She threw a dangerous glare at Ken.

"What are you doing with her?" Paula questioned him in a serious tone. "So, is that you?"

.....

"No-"

"Are you the traitor?" Paula fixed her stare at him. "How dare you!"

"Eva, I mean, Paula! You misunderstood me! I am not that low!" Ken tried to explain. The situation turned upside down. It was Ken who desperately tried to explain to Paula.

However, Paula could not accept his reasoning. She needed to make a quick decision for the sake of the company.

"I am sorry, Ken! You are correct. I am the owner's daughter. I came to the Tokyo branch because I have to investigate information leakage. And because, today, I caught you having dinner with Akane, you don't have to come to the office tomorrow," Paula concluded, she glared at helpless Ken firmly. She sighed bitterly and continued, "I am so disappointed in you. You are so bright and passionate. I even plan to give you a promotion if the problem is solved. However-"

Paula couldn't continue her sentence. She glared at Akane who walked closer in her direction, smiling cunningly. Her hand stroked Ken's shoulder, trying to soothe his anger.

"As I said, baby, it was no use to work with them. Now, you can see their true face," Akane said, facing Paula with her grudge.

Paula turned her gaze at Akane, sneering in disgust. "It's rich coming from you! You better call yourself a thief rather than an entrepreneur!"

Seeing such a scene, Samuel came down the stage to check what happened. "Is there a problem?" He asked in confusion.

Paula turned at Samuel and smiled cynically. "The problem is you, Sam! Never show your face before me ever again!"

Paula took her handbag and walked out of the restaurant. Samuel turned to Akane and Ken, then turned to chase Paula.

Paula exited the building and walked quickly to the highway to find a taxi. She waved to an unoccupied passing taxi.

"Paula! Wait!" Samuel called, panting after her. He didn't expect Paula to be able to walk so fast despite her pregnancy.

"What again?" Paula asked, feeling annoyed. The taxi driver had pressed the button to open the door automatically. Paula was about to get into the taxi.

"I don't know what your problem is. Why are you angry? Who were those people?" Samuel asked, demanding an immediate explanation.

"Sam! I already told you that I'm not Paula here. But you started repeating that a few hours after I told you not to." Paula quickly got into the taxi without looking back. However, Samuel got in the taxi as well and asked for more explanation.
