NovelStart"It couldn't be James." Justin decisively gave his analysis when Bella was confused, as if a strategist who served a queen.
"James had already achieved his aim, and there's no need for any extra action. It's a huge risk to murder someone in jail. He had already suffered once due to his recklessness, so he wouldn't do it again." "Yeah, I agree." Bella nodded earnestly.

"Yeah, that makes sense. When in doubt, suspect Christopher!" Bella pursed her lips, showing full agreement with his words.
Justin's rough fingers tipped Bella's chin up, his gaze doting and indulging.
"Now that you guys said so, I'm starting to suspect him too. I checked Charles' visiting records for the past few days this morning, and the last person to visit him was indeed Christopher!" Ralph provided a piece of extremely important information, which made the couple's eyes light up.
"Ralph, doesn't the visiting room have a surveillance camera? Can you retrieve the footage for us to see?” Justin quickly asked.
"I can, but due to privacy protection principles, we only have video recordings without sound." "Then we will hire a lip-reading specialist to decipher what Christopher and Charles talked about," Bella immediately suggested.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"That's my plan too, but it's a pity that we did not capture Christopher's face clearly on the video, only Charles. But we should still be able to get suseful information. Wait for my news. I'll get on it now!" After the call, Bella lowered her eyes, falling into silence.
"Bella, what is it? Are you in a bad mood?" Justin placed his hand on her waist, lifting her onto his thigh, and let her lean sideways against him as he gently patted her back. "Originally, we hoped Charles would be sentenced to death and thought we needed to work more on it. Now, someone has saved the work for us. He died miserably. No matter what, it's not a bad thing." "It's not bad, but..." Bella furrowed her brows in exasperation. "What I wanted to see most was for Charles to be standing in court, accepting legal judgment in front of everyone. That would be a satisfactory ending for Rachet, Amelia, and all the other victims. Sigh. He got off too easilyTMTMTM Justin's gaze darkened, and he lowered his head to kiss her earlobe.
Bella's ruthless side also hit the mark with him.
"Bella, your expectations for yourself and everything else are too high, so you feel disappointed when something doesn't go your way. But most things don't go as planned. You should only do your best, and the rest..." "Let it be?" Bella murmured dejectedly.
"No. Leave it to me." Justin's voice was low and soft, lingering around her ears gently. "Or you could just do nothing. I'm here, so you can trustto handle everything." Bella felt a surge of warmth rush through her heart, making her feel cozy. She rubbed her head against Justin's Chest, saying, "I know I can rely on you, but you know me. I'm a natural worrywart. If I don't do it myself and do it well, I will feel uncomfortable." "I understand. I'm also like this. These years, I personally handled all major and trivial matters in the Salvador Corporation. I won't feel assured if I let someone else work on it." Justin sighed in understanding.
"Your father is really something else! He couldn't find another president as outstanding and responsible as you anywhere, but he still doesn't appreciate you, picking on your faults every day!" Bella blurted out her genuine thoughts and immediately felt as if she had misspoken, hurriedly covering her mouth.
Justin chuckled, took her hand away, and kissed her lips. "You said nothing wrong. Why are you panicking?" "But he's still your father. You can talk ill about him, but it's different if I do." "Bella, I've said that Gregory and I are only in a cooperative relationship. I've got no family bond with him anymore. In the whole Salvador family, the only people I care about are Grandpa and Carrie."
