Justin gripped his phone tightly. "Bella, I need to pick up Ryan's call."
"Go ahead," Bella urged gently.
Justin would pick up all his calls without hiding anything from her, no matter who it was.
He had no secrets from her. But at this time, Bella knew that the brothers needed a private conversation.
Justin got up and headed to the living room, standing in front of the window. He sounded concerned. "Ryan, how are you? Are you doing okay?"
"Justin."
After a long pause, Ryan finally spoke, his voice hoarse like a traveler stranded in the desert for too long without water. "I miss my wife. I miss Carrie..."
Justin's breath hitched. "Don't worry. Carrie is with our grandfather. We are accompanying her, and she's doing well."
"Justin, can I still be with Carrie? Can I still marry her?" Ryan asked desperately.
Justin's throat choked up, suddenly at a loss for words.
He knew Ryan was madly in love with Carrie, but he was unsure whether Carrie was still willing to choose Ryan.
"If I solve all the Hoffman Group's problems, will you let me take Carrie away?" Ryan's tone suddenly turned gloomy. "Justin, help me."
Justin lowered his eyes. "You're my best friend. You don't need to ask."
"Help me gather all the dirt on the Hoffman Group, as much as possible, especially on Logan."
Justin's heart tightened, and he quickly said, "Ryan, Logan is your grandfather and the actual person in charge of the Hoffman Group. Don't do anything stupid!" "Gregory is your dad, but I see you didn't hesitate to defy him for Bella."
Justin was speechless.
Indeed, Justin was professional in going against his family, which was a totally bad influence on Ryan.
"I've made up my mind. Everyone who plotted against Carrie, who tried to stop me from marrying Carrie, should not stand while talking to me."
Ryan's cold and ruthless voice rang out in the dark night. "Logan is the foundation of the Hoffman Group. Without touching him, I won't be able to get rid of Liam completely or crush that scumbag."
"Ryan, if you do so, I'm afraid you'd be playing with fire!" Justin was genuinely worried for him. "Wait a little longer. We'll think of the safest solution."
"I can't wait anymore... Every second I'm apart from Carrie feels like my heart is being cut open!"
Ryan's emotions gradually lost control, panting heavily as he roared hysterically, "If... I ask you to separate from Bella, can you tolerate it? Can you?!"
Justin's chest throbbed with pain. "Ryan..."

As his words fell, the call disconnected without waiting for Justin to respond.
