“Ah!”
A powerful grip seized Bella’s arm and yanked her into the darkness.
Bella stumbled into a tough chest. The man’s ragged breaths stirred the strands on top of
her head, his touch drawing warmth across her skin.
The long, lingering embrace was strange yet familiar to her.
It was Justin.
The man ensured a firm grip around her waist in case she might twist her ankle from
wearing those high stilettos.
His grip was awfully firm, bearing conflicting emotions. He wanted to protect her, but he
feared she might slip away from him.
“Justin! How did you get in here?” Bella put up a fight, her cheeks flushed with rage.
“Ryan said I might have trouble getting past the tight security here.” Justin narrowed his
eyes. His voice was raspy and flat.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJustin graduated at the top of his class from the military. It was a piece of cake to elude
the hotel’s security.
When he later became the president of Salvador Corporation, all his basic needs-and more
were met. His military training proved less relevant in the business world.
Yet he faced a multitude of hurdles when trying to see Bella, forcing

him to be creative and persistent.
“It’s vile of you to sneak around like this.
Bella gritted her teeth and tried to stomp on his foot, but Justin twirled and pinned her
against the wall.
Their eyes met, and sparks flew.

Now that he had snagged on an encounter, Justin’s gaze lingered on her face, absorbing
every detail of her.
“What are you looking at, bastard?” Bella cursed, and her ears turned red.
“You’ve put on some weight.” Justin fixated on her.
His lips curled at the roundness of her once-highly-contoured cheekbones.
She put some meat on her bones.
Bella could not believe Justin just said that.

“Are you mad at me? There’s nothing wrong with putting on some weight. You were skin
and bones before. You should eat more. Justin spoke like a gentleman.
Red in the face, Bella slapped him.
Feeling the burn on his cheek, Justin grabbed her hand. The handprint on his face was a
mark of humiliation. “Is this how you repay someone who has helped you, Bella? I don’t
count on getting a thank- you, but you should stop getting physical with me every time I

“Thank you? Why should I? Should I thank you for restraining Xena Gordon and getting her
to testify against Bethany?”
With her chest heaving, Bella mocked Justin. “Have you no shame, Justin? You should
thank me, not the other way around. You’re just trying to gain leverage through me by
holding Xena against Bethany. If I hadn’t played along, you would have been out of the
game a long time ago.”
“Bella!”
Justin’s eyes turned bloodshot as rage consumed him. “I just wanted to see you.”
“But you’re the last person on earth I want to see!”
Bella could not break free from Justin. It was not as if she could beat someone from the
special force.
She reached into her pocket to fish out her phone to call Steven.
Justin saw through her and nimbly seized her other hand.
