It seemed like advice, but Gregory was actually warning Ryan. "Ultimately, this matter is between my
son and Ms. Bella. It's a grudge between our two families. Therefore, you should bring Mr. Logan and
Ms.
Zoe home. You don't need to intervene in this."
"Ha... Zoe exposed Ms. Bella's personal information in front of so many people and revealed Bella's
health condition and pain just for revenge. Do you mean that Zoe does not have to take responsibility in
this matter?"
Ryan's words were straight to the point, tearing Zoe's last cover apart.
His words also reopened Bella's festering wounds. She gritted her teeth and closed her eyes,
eyelashes fluttering, but her tears still streamed down helplessly. Every tear struck Justin in the heart
and crushed him.
He thought, 'Bella, how I wish to walk to you and kiss you like before. But do I still deserve your love?
Do I still deserve to embrace you?'
"Ryan, are you insulting me?!" Gregory tried to maintain his composure, his jaw tense, but he was on
the verge of faltering.
"You always beat around the bush, speaking in riddles, but I am simple-minded. At least, this is how I
understood it. I wonder what everyone else thinks."
Ryan put on his bored and cocky playboy demeanor, scratching his ear. "Also, I'm familiar with your
son, but not so much with you. I'd feel more comfortable if you called me Mr. Hoffman in the future."
Gregory's expression fell, looking as if he had eaten a fly.
Ryan was really something!
He took upon Gregory's usual sarcastic remarks, leaving him with no way out.
The crowd looked at Gregory, who was furious. They shook their heads, unable to conceal the
disappointment and disdain in their gazes.
"To stop Ms. Bella from marrying Mr. Justin, Zoe could resort to all sorts of despicable means!"
"Yeah! A diagnostic report from the gynecological department should be confidential, even for an
ordinary person, let alone a wealthy lady like her. Zoe exposed Ms. Bella's information to the public just
for revenge. How immoral!"
"Zoe knew it was hopeless for her to marry Justin, so she decided to drag Bella down with her. She
wants to ruin it for Bella too!"
"Even a dog would shake its head seeing this woman. Who would marry her?â
"Chairman Salvador is also something else. He still wants Mr. Salvador to marry Zoe! Is the Salvador
family a public toilet? He tries to get all the dirty and smelly stuff in. Is he interested in Zoe himself?"
The mocking words pressed down on Gregory, suffocating him.
He realized at this moment that even if he wanted to tear Justin and Bella apart by forcing a woman
onto Justin, choosing Zoe was a huge mistake!
"Grandpa... My ears hurt... Am I going deaf? I don't want to be deaf... Send me to the hospital now!"
Zoe cried and begged, panicking.
"Go! Send Zoe to the hospital!"
Logan had just shouted his order when Asher suddenly growled, his gaze icy. "Who dares to leave?!"
The Hoffman family was startled, especially Zoe, who was so frightened that she wished to find a hole
to hide in.
Asher strode to Bella's side, forcefully prying Wyatt's tightly clutched hand away from her wrist. "Dad,
what can you achieve by throwing a tantrum at Bella now? You would only fall into the trap of some
schemer. Also, you will hurt Bella like this. She's not only your precious daughter; she's also my
beloved sister. Bella is already in tremendous pain. Please don't upset her further."
Wyatt shook, finally realizing that his daughter's wrist had turned red from his tight grip-a sight that
pierced his heart.
