Chapter 621
Asher paused, then lowered his voice. “Also, Christopher Iverson is
much more cunning and devious than you or I can tell. Like an
iceberg, you can only see the fraction that’s on the surface. He left
the country for 15 years and suddenly returned from Sentania to
approach you. Bella, you’re the heiress of KS Group. You have a
higher net worth than any princess or queen. You’re just a very low- key person. You’re definitely the woman of every man’s
dreams. I
don’t believe that Christopher Iverson is completely sincere about
you. I’m sure he has ulterior motives toward you.”
As he said this, he scowled. “To be honest, Justin Salvador is
somehow better than Christopher Iverson.”
“Asher!” Bella’s heart trembled as she clutched her cup tightly.
“At the very least, he gives his all for the woman he loves and doesn’t have any ulterior motives about it.”
“Ha! That’s true. He really gave his all and more for Rosalind Gold.”
Bella slammed her teacup on the table, and her eyes reddened. “He even enlisted in the army and tried to die on the battlefield
because
he thought she dumped him!”
“But hasn’t he risked his life for you too? He even got injured because
of it and still hasn’t recovered yet. We don’t even know if it’ll leave any
permanent after-effects.”
Bella’s heart began beating even harder as her expression faltered.”
That’s not the same.”
“Bella, I don’t think you fell for the wrong person or that you were
blind for loving Justin deeply. He has displayed all of his faults, including the fact that he didn’t love you, from the start. It was
cruel, but at least he was straightforward.”
slightly
Asher sighed deeply and leaned forward to gently take her si
cold hand. “At the very least, Justin has never lied to you. A man who loves you can have many faults, but they absolutely
cannot be dishonest to you.”
Bella’s eyes flickered, and she hung her head, dispirited.
After bidding her family goodbye, Bella and Steven headed back to
Savrow.
They were about to pass the highway exit when Bella suddenly said,
though in a calm tone, “Head to Tideview Manor.”
Steven frowned slightly but still answered, “Alright.”
When they reached Tideview Manor, Bella did not contact Justin directly but called Wilma instead.
“Young Madam, to tell you the truth, the young master hasn’t been
back for three or four days.”
Wilma was extremely worried. “I called him a few times, but he hardly picked up. When he did, he sounded weak. But when I
asked him how he was doing, he said he was fine.”
Bella’s heart clenched tightly, like someone was squeezing it.
Wilma sighed. “I raised Young Master Justin, so I know he’s very considerate and only likes to tell me the good things, not the
bad things. Ever since he was young, he would grit his teeth and endure everything alone whenever he got sick or encountered
troubles. No matter how much I asked, he just would not tell me. Young Madam, can you contact him? I’m so scared something’s
happened to him!” Wilma’s voice was tinged with tears.
“Don’t panic, Wilma. I’ll find him.” Bella comforted her gently.
Justin might refuse to see anyone else, but he would not refuse to
see Bella.
After Bella finished talking to Wilma, she pondered for a moment before calling lan.
“Mr. Harris.”
“M-Ms. Thompson! Good evening!”
lan usually spoke in a very friendly manner whenever he pic up a
call from her, but this time, he sounded a bit flustered.
Bella would not believe him if he said everything was fine.
“Where’s Mr. Salvador? He’s not at home, so where has he hidden.
himself?” Bella frowned slightly, a little unhappy.
“M-Mr. Salvador is on a business trip overseas.”
“Ian Harris, let me remind you that lying to me has serious.
consequences.” Bella’s tone was dark and very threatening.
“Um... Young Madam, I’ll tell you the truth! Even if I get fired by Mr.
Salvador tomorrow, I have to tell you the truth!”
lan choked up. “Please hurry and come see him. He’s in a very bad
condition. I’m afraid things will get serious if this continues!”
