Chapter 405
Bella did not even have time to blow dry her hair. Thus, she pulled on a cashmere coat
over her nightgown and drove her Bugatti to the KS World Hotel. Her hair was still dripping
wet.
On the way, she deliberated again and again. Finally, for the first time since the divorce,
she called her ex-husband willingly.
At this moment, Justin was on a business trip in Lisenne, a neighboring city 200 kilometers
away from Savrow.
Justin bought a piece of land in the suburbs to build a hot spring
resort, which was still under construction.
At that moment, Justin and lan wore yellow safety helmets as they inspected the
construction site in person to get to know the progress of the project.
Just as lan was holding the flashlight for Justin, who was checking the drawings, Justin’s
phone rang.
Justin frowned impatiently and took out his phone.
On the screen, Bella’s name was dazzling, like gold in the night.
Justin’s breath hitched, and his heart was pounding. His hand, which was holding the
phone, trembled slightly.
“Oh, it’s Young Madam!” lan looked excited on the side.
“I know. Don’t make a fuss.” Justin pretended to be calm. He pursed
his lips and wanted to pick up the call.
His fingers were a little stiff after being exposed to the cold wind for
so long. He was also so excited that he did not control his muscles well. As a result, he
rejected the call.
lan shouted, “Mr. Salvador! Why did you hang up on the young
madam?! She won’t call you for no reason. What if something happened?!”
Justin panicked. He hated his fingers for failing him at such a critical
moment.
Fortunately, Bella called in again immediately.
“Hey.” Justin did not miss this time. His voice was hoarse.
“Oh, you finally picked up.” Bella’s voice was pleasant, but her tone was mocking.
“Of course. I always answer your calls.” Justin’s tone was sincere.
“Mr. Salvador, you don’t need to pretend. I know you well enough after being with you for
three years. This isn’t the first time you’ve hung up on me either.” Bella sneered.
Justin was confused and asked in surprise, “When have I ever hung
up on you? I’ve never done that before.”
“Whatever. I’m not calling to reminisce.”
Bella’s voice was cold and indifferent. “I’m calling to tell you to
prepare a funeral for your best friend.”
“What’s wrong with Ryan? Did he do something to you?” Justin’s expression quickly turned
cold.
“If he did, he would already be buried in the cemetery in the eastern suburbs! It’s Carrie!”
Bella clenched her teeth in anger. “Ryan got Carrie drunk and checked in with her at my
hotel. My secretary witnessed it.”
“What?”
Justin was shocked, then he quickly shook his head. “Ryan is not that kind of person.”
Bella sneered. “Well, I don’t expect much from him since he’s your friend.”
“Bella.” Justin was helpless.
“I’m heading to the KS World Hotel now. I hope that beast still has some reason left in him.
Otherwise, I will castrate him!”
Bella sounded furious. “I will also suppress the news about this matter. If it spreads, I’m
afraid it will affect Carrie’s reputation. You should come over right now. I will rescue Carrie,
and you can take her home immediately. Don’t alert anyone else.”
After that, Bella hung up without another word.
Justin looked at the dimmed screen with a frown.
He suddenly remembered that Bella used to find some odd reason to
call him back when they were married.
Justin was not annoyed at that time, but he still treated her indifferently.
In his memory, he had never hung up on her, Did she remember it
wrong?
“I have an emergency, so I have to go back to Savrow immediately.” Justin was half-
convinced by Bella. But since she asked him to go back, he would do so regardless.
“Huh?! Now?”
lan raised his wrist and looked at his watch with a troubled look on his face. “Lisenne is
200 km from Savrow! The highway is still under construction, so it will take more than two
hours to get back. I don’t think that you’ll be able to make it in time. Why not inform the
old witch? Ms. Carrie is her biological daughter after all…”
“Bella is already rushing over, so Carrie will be fine with her. But I have to go back and
help her deal with the aftermath.”
Justin lowered his eyes and remained silent before asking, “I
remember there’s a helicopter on the top floor of the Salvador Mall in Lisenne.”
“Yes, but at this hour, it’ll take time to find someone who can fly it.” lan was stumped
again.
Justin narrowed his eyes and snapped his fingers. “I can fly.”

It was almost midnight in Savrow.
