i will finish you

"Bella will run the business," said Alex which made everyone confused.

They furrowed their brows and looked at him as if waiting for further explanation.

He chuckled, "didn't you say that her cooking would surpass me soon." he asked all of them

All of them nodded but they were still not satisfied with the answer, "but brother Alex, Bella did not have social skills." said Anna looking at Bella apologetically. Afraid that Bella will misunderstand her and be angry with her.

But the girl had a blank face like always. Which made Anna let out a sigh of relief.

"Anna is right Alex, Bella did not know how to run a bakery, forget about that she did not even know how to count money and calculate it." added Mike "don't mind Bella, I am just taking things practically," he said looking at the Bella.

The girl looked at him blankly tilting her head and nodded at the same time with Alex.

"Yes, I know she is a bit slow in social skills and she does not have business knowledge. But she is very good at baking.

And you both have other skills." he replied, still smiling, taking a bit of his food.

Bella was looking at everyone, she knew they were talking about her but she still did not get what they were discussing. She thought only vehicles run here on earth these days, like horses when she had come here last time.

But Evelyn was understanding each word, and her face was turning a shade darker. How could these humans trust a demon so much?

Especially the one naming Alex, she could feel his hostility towards her just to protect the demon. Never in history had this happened before.

"It is simple, rather than doing two shifts at the cafe, I will do one shift. In the morning I and Bella will handle the work, she will cook and I will sit at the counter. Later you would join her when you would come back from the gym, as it closes after 6 pm.

You can sit at the counter and later close the work.

This way we can do things with proper planning. Whatever will be the profit we will distribute it in three parts.`` Alex said, looking at Mike and then at others.

Everyone was silent contemplating his words. Anna was the first one to break the silence.

"Does it mean that Bella is going to stay here for a long time?" she asked, crossing her fingers under the table.

Alex furrowed his brows in confusion but still answered, "yes, she would. Didn't I say she had paid two years of rent in advance?"

Anna clapped and smiled brightly, "then brother can I also stay here, I don't want to stay in the dorm anymore. I am already 16 this year, I am not a kid anymore. And we both will take care of each other.

I will train her and keep an eye on her so that she did not run into trouble. And she will teach me cooking and other things, so I can also help in the bakery in my free time." she added more and more with a pitiful expression batting her eyes.

"But this is the crucial time of your study," he added.

But she brought tears to her eyes. He knew that the tears were fake. Still, his resolve was weakening. He sighed, closing his eyes.

"Fine but your marks should remain in the '90s. Just a per cent less and I will throw you back in the dorms." he tried to threaten but his voice was dotting.

"Yay…" Anna jumped and hugged Bella. "Thank you, Bella, it's all because of you. You are an angel Bella." she squealed jumping.

When they all heard Evelyn laughing hard like she had heard the best joke in the world. Everyone looked at her direction,

"Oh, don't mind me, I am too happy for all of you," she replied, waving her hands, still laughing.

All others were confused about her sudden fit of laughter except Bella. She narrowed her eyes at her mother elf with clenched fists. She was also happy when Anna hugged her but her words that you are an angel were like cold water thrown on her face. Her face turned white at the thought of what would happen when they would come to know about her reality.

"Well the plan is good, Mike, you should join Alex. I always wanted you two to work together." spoke aunt Sharon, putting a hand on Mike's shoulder who was still silent.

Mike sighed, "fine if you think so. But then I will take the loan on my name since you are already investing in the shop." he spoke determined.

Alex shook his head, "no Mike, I know you have to save money for aunt Sharon treatment. You can't take a loan for these things. And since then we started doing yours and mine. Huh?" said Alex in a strict voice.

"Bella you did not say anything, are you okay with the plan?" asked Alex to Bella.

Bella blinked at Alex then looked at everyone and shook her head. They thought she did not want to participate with them when she spoke finally, "I don't know what you are talking about?"

"Huh" Alex was surprised to hear her answer and then chuckled and they all followed suit. Anna even put her head on Bella's shoulder, smiling.

"I want you to make food for us and we will pay you money. Is that okay?" asked Alex.

Bella nodded then shook her head, "I will cook but I don't need money, I need home and food." she replied pointing at her plate.

And they all laughed again.

"Sure, we will give you that." said Alex chuckling shaking his head, 'she is too innocent and simple-hearted'

'Don't worry demon you will not need anything after tonight. Just a few minutes alone and I will finish all your needs at once.'
