“I like you, Bella. I’ve fallen for you,” Justin declared.
Bella’s breath was stuck in her throat, and she subconsciously took a
step back. She felt a mix of emotions that were difficult to put into
words upon hearing this man confess to her.
The room fell silent. Amidst the silence, both could hear the pounding
of their own hearts.
“Justin, if you had confessed to me in the past three years, I would
have accepted without hesitation. Unfortunately, we’re not in the
past. As I’ve told you before, the feelings between us have long
expired.”
Bella’s gaze was distant and indifferent. “I stopped loving you a
time ago.”
“I’m sorry! I know all this is a bit too late, but I am determined, and won’t give up!” Justin’s forehead
was covered with sweat. He wanted to get closer to her but was worried that she might run away
without looking back.

His heart was in turmoil as he said, “Even if you don’t love me, okay. This time, let me be the one to
sacrifice. Let me… Love you.”
Justin had never used the word “love” with Rosalind before, but this
time, he couldn’t control the urge to say it to Bella.
“Enough! I don’t need to be loved by someone that I don’t love! How many times do I have to say it for
you to remember?” Bella countered, determined to shut him up. “If you dare to spout such nonsense

again, I’ll turn around and leave right now!”
Justin choked on his words and obediently kept silent.
After a while, seeing that Bella’s expression had softened slightly, he
cautiously asked, “If I don’t bring it up again, will you stay with me
tonight?”
Bella scoffed, “Haha, dream on.”
“Didn’t you say that since I saved you, you would agree to one
request? As long as it’s not too much.” Justin’s gaze sparkled, still
not giving up.
“Yesterday, didn’t you…?” Bella recalled yesterday’s event in this ward.
Justin had taken her lips, held her waist, pressed her into his arms,
and gave her a passionate and lingering kiss.
Her cheeks turned crimson, and her whole body felt as if it h
caught fire, burning with heat.
“Are you talking about that kiss? That doesn’t count.” Justin
hooked his thin lips, his voice soft and low.
Seeing Bella’s rare, shy expression, he smiled with delight.
“Doesn’t count?!” Bella exclaimed. She felt that this divorced man
his thirties was truly a sly and cunning fox!
“I forcefully kissed you, but you fought back.” Justin pointed to hi already scabbed lips. “This is the
evidence.”
“Serves you right! To deal with a rogue like you, biting your mouth to
shreds wouldn’t be excessive.”

Bella grew angrier the more she thought about it. Her little face
turned flushed.
“Alright, come on.” Justin leaned back, extending a sincere invitation
to her.
Bella bit her teeth. Looking at the man’s smug appearance, she really
wanted to flip his bed!

blackmailing her to stay the night.
She could only resign herself to staying the night with him.
As Bella came over in a hurry, she did not bring anything with her. She
had Steven return to her villa in Savrow to bring some necessities.
Steven returned with a small suitcase in the hospital corridor, loo
serious.
Bella said, “Thank you, Steve. You can go back and rest tonight. Con
pick me up early tomorrow morning.”
Bella tried to take the suitcase, but Steven, with red eyes, refused to let go. “Ms. Bella, come back
home with me.”
“Steve, since Justin has made this request and it’s not too
unreasonable, I will repay the favor,” Bella said calmly.
“But, Ms. Bella, what if he has ulterior motives and does something to
you if you stay with him in the same room?”
“We were married for three years. If he really wanted to do something,
would he wait until now?”

“But…”
Bella waved dismissively, “Don’t worry, even scoundrels understand
the law.”
