"You need to get past Grandpa Nigel first, then we can talk about it," Bella said, turning away without looking back.
Justin stood in the snow with Ryan. Their figures were like timeless, perfect sculptures against the storm.
"Let Carrie stay with Grandpa for a while." Justin sighed heavily, patting Ryan's rigid shoulder.
"You go back and handle your family's issues. Come back when Grandpa has calmed down a bit."
Ryan's voice was hoarse, "I'll stay here with her tonight..."
"Are you kidding me? The temperature's going to drop below freezing tonight. If you stand out here all night, you'll definitely get sick!"
Justin's expression turned stern. "If Carrie knew you were doing this, it would only make her feel worse!"
"Then... Don't let her know." Ryan forced a bitter smile, his pale lips trembling. "Justin, this is the only way I can feel a little better. Please don't stop me."
Bella furrowed her delicate brows in frustration. As soon as she returned to the villa, she received a call from Ralph.
"Ralph..."
"Bella," Ralph paused slightly before cautiously asking, "How is Carrie...?"
Ralph's voice was so warm that Bella felt like crying again. She always showed more of her vulnerable side in front of her family and Justin.
"She's sleeping at Grandpa Nigel's place." Bella choked up slightly.
Ralph took a deep breath and asked hoarsely, "Is there anything I can do for her?"
Bella bit her lip and softly said, "If you have time, buy a box of Little Panda snacks for Carrie, please."
"Alright. I'll go first thing tomorrow morning and then deliver them to Grandpa Nigel's."
"Do you want to see Carrie?"
Ralph's tone held a boyish shyness along with the understanding of a mature man. "No, let her rest well. Don't tell her the snacks are from me."
