"No need? Ms. Thompson, are you sure?"
Coral stared at her in disbelief. "Aren't you afraid I would change my mind after the surgery and refuse to help you? Aren't
businessmen like you most concerned about verbal agreements and insist everything must be written?"
"I did this to let you know that our cooperation is entirely up to you."
Bella curled her red lips calmly, her smile friendly and relaxing. "If you sign an agreement, it's a transaction. If you don't, it'll be
fierce revenge for yourself and your family. Even if you decide to return to the Iverson family after the surgery due to societal
pressure, I won't blame you.
"I am also a doctor, and a doctor's duty is to help the sick. Besides, Chief Prosecutor Jones was once my brother's mentor.
Consider me repaying my brother's debt of gratitude for his mentor." Even a bystander like Justin was deeply moved by her
words, let alone Coral.
How magnanimous! His lover was indeed never to be underestimated, always carrying herself like a queen.
The years of anger, grievance, pain, and unwillingness that Coral had endured turned into a torrent of tears at this moment,
streaming down her cheeks.
She wept as she flung herself into Bella's arms, finally crying her heart out.
After leaving the hospital, Justin kept a tight hold on Bella's waist, both tacitly choosing to be silent on the way.
Bella's tense emotions only relaxed when they returned to their car. Her soft body leaned into Justin's warm chest, and her
forehead pressed against his broad shoulders as she cried softly. Listening to her broken sobs, Justin felt his breath grow heavy.
His large hands caressed her back gently, and his heart melted.
"My darling."
He spoke to her dotingly, thin lips parting as he bit her ear lightly. "You're such a strong and fearless woman. Why are you crying
so much?"
"Tsk, I didn't cry in front of others. I only cry in front of you... Can't I?"
Bella said coquettishly, pulling out his tie to wipe her tears. "A woman only shows her temper in front of the man she loves."
"Of course, you can."
Justin's warm breath tickled her ear, his hoarse voice making her heart tremble. "But you must remember, from now on, you can
only cry in front of me." Bella snorted but still obediently snuggled into his arms again. "I can't believe I cried because of Coral.
Justin, you must think I'm weak and silly..." "You're not silly. My wife is the smartest woman in the world."
Justin was at a loss for words. He sighed helplessly. "Bella, you're just too kind."
In fact, Bella did prepare a written agreement. But when she saw Coral sitting and crying alone helplessly because she could not
save her father, her heart softened. She thought of herself and Wyatt, who was so sick he could not get up not long ago.
The calculating and scheming lady in her heart took a back seat. At that moment, she merely wanted to help Coral. That was all.
"Even if Coral regrets it later, it's okay. We have a long way to go, and I have many ways to deal with James."
Justin's sharp brows furrowed slightly. "But it's a little rushed to find a top-tier surgeon with a free schedule within three days to
perform the kidney transplant surgery on Coral's father."
"Hey, your wife is a top-notch surgeon. Have you forgotten?"
Bella put her hand on her hip and made a peace sign. "Dr. Brown is right here!"
Justin was taken aback. He could not hold back anymore. Seeing her playful demeanor, he was about to lean forward to kiss her
when Tan's untimely call interrupted his plans.
"lan, what's up?" Justin's voice was hoarse, his thumb stained with a touch of Bella's lip gloss.
