Chapter 749
“Alright, that makes things easier.” Christopher smiled mockingly. ” Tonight, you’ve done me a big favor. Thank you for your hard
work.”
“Mr. Iverson, please don’t say that. My life belongs to you. I’m willing to do anything for you!” Yvonne’s soft voice was filled with
affection.
Christopher’s expression remained cold and indifferent. He said in a deep voice, “Later, I’ll have someone send you a plane
ticket and
deposit some money into your account. It should be enough for you
to go abroad and enjoy yourself for a year or so. If you need more money, just let Taylor know, and he’ll transfer it to you.”
Yvonne gasped and panicked. “Mr. Iverson, are you sending me
away?”
“Justin has fallen into our trap. He won’t just let this slide and will
immediately start an investigation. He’s not stupid, but this time, he’s, thrown off balance because of Bella. To avoid unnecessary
trouble,
it’s best for you to lay low for a while. Taylor will handle things
temporarily on the other side.”
“But!”
“Behave,” Christopher commanded coldly.
Yvonne’s throat tightened. “Yes, Mr. Iverson.”
Bella was the first to arrive at the park, as she was nearby.
The temperature at night suddenly dropped, and it started snowing heavily. The usually bustling park was practically deserted.
Bella sat alone on a bench, watching the lonely night unfold before
her.
She remembered when she would often come here during her free
time in the past three years.
She would watch couples feed each other and exchange kisses. She would watch young families bring their children to play. It
filled her
with warmth and happiness.
At that time, she often wondered if she would ever experience such
moments herself.
Could she ever take a stroll with Justin in the park? Would they be holding hands and exchanging affectionate glances like
ordinary
couples?
Bella’s heart throbbed. She let out a sigh, her breath forming a puff of
white mist. Tiny ice crystals gathered on her eyelashes.
At that moment, an ice cream truck passed by her, and she flagged down, buying a vanilla ice cream cone.
Before she could take a bite, a series of hurried footsteps approache
her through the snow.
“Bella.”
Bella gripped the ice cream tightly. Her heart was pounding in her chest as she slowly raised her gaze.
Justin stood before her with snow covering his thin suit, and his face was flushed from the cold. But what stood out the most
were his beautiful eyes, reddened by the cold. Despite the snow covering him, Justin looked impeccable.
Bella’s throat felt constricted. She had imagined this scene countless times, but she hadn’t expected it to unfold like this.
“Bella... Don’t sit here. It’s too cold. You’ll get sick.” Justin was filled with heartache, reaching out to her without hesitation.
Slap!
Bella slapped away his outstretched hand, her attitude colder than the weather. “I know it’s cold, so just say what you want to say
quickly.”
“It was a setup. Someone is scheming against me. They are trying to create rumors to drive us apart!” Justin was frantically
trying to
explain himself.
“Us?” Bella chuckled out loud. “Do you and I have anything left
between us?”
Justin felt a knife twisting in his heart.
Bella continued coldly, “Besides, we are divorced and can’t stan sight of each other. What is there to drive us apart?”
“Bella, is this what you truly think? Do you really feel this way abo
me?” Justin’s voice was hoarse.
Bella slowly stood up, glaring at him coldly. “Justin, even if this is a setup, you still went to the hotel to meet Zoe. It seems that
Ms. Hoffman holds quite a significant place in your heart.”
“I didn’t go there to meet Zoe! I went to find you!”
