Chapter 625
Ryan was a good wingman for Justin. Otherwise, what sort of friend would he be?
Trying to move an unconscious Justin, who was 189 cm tall, back to his room was equivalent to trying to move a mountain.
Luckily, there was an elevator in this villa. Bella dragged the bastard’s body back to his room like she was dragging a corpse. By
the time she helped him up onto the bed, her dress had been soaked through by a mixture of both her own sweat and Justin’s
sweat.
“You’re so damn heavy!”
Bella was exhausted and panting heavily, but she had no time to rest. She hurried into the bathroom and soaked a towel with
cold water before wiping Justin’s body to bring his temperature down.
After she was done bustling around, Bella sat on the edge o heavily, so tired that she did not want to move anymore.
“I’m seriously exasperated with you. Why were you moving abou much when you were having such a fever? You’re really
troubleson
don’t you know that?”
Bella glared at Justin, who was still delirious from the fever. Her tone
was cold, but she felt anxious.
After all, he only ended up this way because of her.
Wait a second!
Ryan frowned, observing Carrie’s movements carefully.
Why did she look like she was having a PTSD reaction? Could she have been constantly beaten at home in the past?
Did Carrie have such a fearful reaction when Zoe raised her hand against her because Bethany used to hit her frequently?
Was that the case?
“When did you two get here? Why didn’t you guys let me know?”
Bella came downstairs and jumped in fright when she saw the two
men sitting quietly in the living room.
She hurriedly tried to calm her unsteady breathing.
Ryan put his phone away and flashed his teeth at Bella with a devious
smile. “Ah, we just didn’t want to intrude. You two get to meet so
rarely that we thought you should have more time to nurture your
feelings. We just didn’t want to be there disturbing you.”
“Nurture our feelings, my ass!”
Bella was so angry that she wished she could use her stiletto heel to
stab holes into Ryan’s mischievous, smiling face.
Ryan crossed his legs and turned to appraise Bella closely, propping
his chin on his hand.
He noticed that her lips were glossy and her cheeks were red with a flush that had not yet receded, and the ever-so-experienced
Mr. Hoffman raised an eyebrow in interest. ‘My brother has done it, hasn’t
he? Wow, Justin looks really serious on the surface, but he’s just as horny as hell. What an asshole!’
“Young Madam! You finally came! There’s hope for Mr. Salvador
now!” lan gazed at Bella with stars in his eyes, smiling so widely that
he was about to burst into tears.
Bella had no time to correct his form of address for her right now and
said’ seriously, “Mr. Harris, Mr. Salvador’s high fever was caused by
the recurrence of his internal injuries. It shouldn’t be neglected. I’ve
just contacted one of the hospitals under KS Group that has high security and is better at maintaining patient’s privacy. I’ve also
contacted the doctor in charge. You and Mr. Hoffman should get
ready to head over there now.”
lan bowed deeply. “Thank you, Young Madam! I just knew you still
have feelings for Mr. Salvador! You wouldn’t have just let him die!”
“I wouldn’t have let him die, but that has nothing to do with whether or
not I still have feelings for him. Don’t make such a far-fetched
assumption.”
Bella’s tone was icy as she refused to allow lan’s assumption to
stand.
She walked down the stairs and walked up to Ryan with a cold gaze.
Ryan’s heart trembled when he met her gaze, as he felt a strong chill. “Mr. Hoffman, let’s step aside to talk.”
