âIt's nothing. If | canât even handle this, am | worthy of being your brother-in-law?â Edward felt embarrassed.
At this moment, his phone rang. Seeing that it was a call from the King, Edward quickly answered it.
While conversing, Bella saw Edwardâs expression darken, and her heart tightened.
After he ended the call, Bella quickly asked, âEdward, is something wrong?â
âMaxwell is not within the borders of Terranova. He left the country.â
Edwardâs gaze was heavy.
âHe ran off? Did someone tip him off, and he fled overnight?â Bellaâs brows furrowed.
âNo, he has been in your country all this time. He was not in
Terranova when this incident happened.â
âWhere is he?â
âSavrow.â
Bellaâs crystal-like eyes shrunk, and she clenched her fists.
She recalled what Asher told her. Justin had said there was someone working with Terranova from Savrow, and he was 90%
sure of that personâs identity!
Why was he so sure?
There was only one possibility. Justin knew that person and had enough understanding of them.
âBella.â
Camilla hesitated and said in a low voice, âThe situation was a mess yesterday, so | didnât have time to tell you. Now, | want to
ask you something in front of Edward. What is your current relationship with Christopher Iverson? Are you still close to each
other?â
âMy relationship with Chris is not what you think. | only see him as a friend.â.
Bellaâs gaze was inexplicably dark. âWhen we were young, we played together. It was a youthful friendship. Then, he went to live
with his mother in Sentania for over a decade. We got into contact again after he returned. Over the past year, he has helped me
a lot. He saved me two times when | was in danger.â
âI'm not doubting that he genuinely treats you well and likes you. But Bella, he... Youâd better distance yourself from him. When
we return,< stay away from him if possible.â
Camilla could not hide the worry in
her eyes and advised, âAnyway, | can
see that the most important man to
you is still Misinoke Aftecthis! |!
oxdeal, Your lings for each other
must have gotten stronger. You
should slowly let go of your hatred
and start over with him, okay? Mr.
Salvador has really sacrificed a lot for
you. Even if you canât accept him, you
can't go near that Iverson boy. Heâs
far inferior to Justin, like heaven and
earth.â
âIverson? Which Iverson?â Edward asked curiously.
âEdward, | meant Christopher Iverson.â
After hearing this name, Edward's
usual gentle face was immediate
covered with fobs. Aekedtdly-said,
f ies from the Iverson Group.
Now, heâs indeed an old
acquaintance.â
His words were forced out of his teeth with obvious resentment and disgust.
âEdward, do you know Christopher? Are you familiar with him? Was there a conflict between you two in Sentania?â Bellaâs eyes
widened.
Edward sighed and shook his head
indignantly. âChristopher was known
as the King of the Underworld in
Sentania. He controls a famou m
ergvere piadarkry, Kas ties
ith powerful officials, and has a
close connection to the mafia. He
opened underground gambling dens,
bribed officials, engaged in the sex
trade, and was even suspected of
being involved in drug trafficking!
However, we just canât find evidence.
He always hid behind the scenes as a
mastermind, so we couldn't arrest
him!â
