NovelStartChapter 1027 “It's nothing. If I can’t even handle this, am | worthy of being your brother-in-law?” Edward felt embarrassed.
At this moment, his phone rang. Seeing that it was a call from the King, Edward quickly answered it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhile conversing, Bella saw Edward's expression darken, and her heart tightened.
After he ended the call, Bella quickly asked, “Edward, is something wrong?” “Maxwell is not within the borders of Terranova. He left the country.” Edward's gaze was heavy.
“He ran off? Did someone tip him off, and he fled overnight?” Bella's brows furrowed.
“No, he has been in your country all this time. He was not in Terranova when this incident happened.” “Where is he?” “Savrow.” Bella's crystal-like eyes shrunk, and she clenched her fists.
She recalled what Asher told her. Justin had said there was someone working with Terranova from Savrow, and he was 90% sure of that person's identity! Why was he so sure? [x There was only one possibility. Justin knew that person and had enough understanding of them.
“Bella.” Camilla hesitated and said in a low voice, “The situation was a mess yesterday, so | didn’t have tto tell you.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow, | want to ask you something in front of Edward. What is your current relationship with Christopher Iverson? Are you still close to each other?” “My relationship with Chris is not what you think. | only see him as a friend.”.
Bella's gaze was inexplicably dark. “When we were young, we played together. It was a youthful friendship.
Then, he went to live with his mother in Sentania for over a decade. We got into contact again after he returned.
Over the past year, he has helpeda lot. He savedtwo times when | was in danger.” “I'm not doubting that he genuinely treats you well and likes you. But Bella, he... You'd better distance yourself from him. When we return, < stay away from him if possible.” Camilla could not hide the worry in her eyes and advised, “Anyway, | can see that the most important man to you is still Mr. Salvador. After this ordeal, your feelings for each other must have gotten stronger. You should slowly let go of your hatred and start over with him, okay? Mr. Salvador has really sacrificed a lot for you. Even if you can’t accept him, you can’t go near that Iverson boy. He's far inferior to Justin, like heaven and earth.” “Iverson? Which Iverson?” Edward asked curiously.
“Edward, | meant Christopher Iverson.” After hearing this name, Edward's usual gentle face was immediately covered with frost. He coldly said, “Ha, so he’s from the Iverson Group. Now, he’s indeed an old acquaintance.” His words were forced out of his teeth with obvious resentment and disgust.
“Edward, do you know Christopher? Are you familiar with him? Was there a conflict between you two in Sentania?” Bella's eyes widened.
Edward sighed and shook his head indignantly. “Christopher was known as the King of the Underworld in Sentania. He controls a famous capital group in our country, has ties with powerful officials, and has a close connection to the mafia. He opened underground gambling dens, bribed officials, engaged in the sex trade, and was even suspected of being involved in drug trafficking! However, we just can’t find evidence. He always hid behind the scenes as a mastermind, so we couldn't arrest him!”
