Chapter 532
Though Bella’s mother still passed away in the end, it was undeniable
that her life had been extended by a year with Celeste’s help. It was one more year of a happy
childhood that Bella had with her mother by
her side.
Much later, when Bella lost the baby she had with Justin, it was
Celeste who stayed by her side the whole time and took care of her
like a mother would.
Gradually, Bella stopped resenting her.
She was not heartless, so how could she not be moved?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWho would hate someone who had been genuinely good to her
twenty years? Even her mother had never hated Celeste, so there w
no need for her to hold onto that resentment.
“Aunt Celeste, just go along with Wyatt’s wishes.”
Bella hugged Celeste’s arm like she was Celeste’s biological daughter and smiled softly. “It’s not just
what Wyatt wants. It’s what I want, too. You’ve never had a proper birthday celebration for the past
twenty years and actually… I’ve always felt bad about it.”
“What are you saying, you silly girl?”
Celeste looked at her with shocked, wide eyes. “I’m the one who
doesn’t like big celebrations. It’s got nothing to do with you!”
“Then just think of it as if you’re fulfilling a small wish of mine and let us hold a birthday party for you,
okay?”
Justin interrupted Steven. “At the very least, I want her to come here
and devote herself to taking care of me this time.”
What?!
Steven was so angry that his eyes had turned red. His knuckles had
turned white from being clenched so tightly.
Anyone else might have the right to make a request of Bella, but not
Justin! He was too shameless!
“That’s right!”
lan was normally not that quick-witted, but this time, he had read his
boss’ mind and hurriedly lamented. “Mr. Salvador has suffered so
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmuch over the years for the sake of saving Ms. Thompson! He’s been
in so much pain every day that he can’t eat or sleep well. He even
coughed up some blood early this morning! Every day, I fear that he
won’t wake up! It’s practically inhumane of Ms. Thompson to treat
her savior like this!”
Justin’s eyebrow twitched as he thought to himself that lan had been
too dramatic.
Steven gritted his teeth. Saying nothing further, he left the hospital
ward.
When the door closed, Justin, who was sitting tall as if he were
looking down on others from the moral high ground, slumped, and his eyes dulled.
Suddenly, he bent forward and spat up a mouthful of blood.
