âMr. Salvador, promise me that you wonât do anything impulsive after I tell you thisâ¦â
âSpit it out!â
Ian gulped and said, âI just saw the young madam pushing the door of a private room. Then a man in
glasses carried her insideâ¦â
Justinâs head buzzed, and his eyes turned bloodshot. âWhich room? Lead the way!â
Christopherâs secretary quickly bought the hangover medicine as requested.
Christopher took over the medicine bottle and fed it to Bella slowly. He thoughtfully prepared some
water for her to wash it down as well.
The secretary was dumbfounded.
Christopher Iverson was a dark and cold-hearted person who hid his sinister intentions behind a gentle
facade. No woman had come close to Christopher in all these years. Who was this young lady who
made his boss turn into such a caring man?
Was Christopher in love with her?
Tsk tsk! Since ancient times, even the greatest heroes have had a hard time resisting a beautiful
woman. Christopher must be enamored with this gorgeous woman.
âAre you feeling better now?â Christopher asked gently when he finally saw Bellaâs blush fading.
Bella stretched out her hand to cover her chest. Her eyes gradually regained focus, but her stomach
was churning. She felt like vomiting.
âAlcohol is very harmful to the body. You should drink less in the future.â Christopher spoke with
concern as he handed her a glass of water.
Bella could not remember what had just happened, but she could tell that the man had no ill
intentions toward her.
She also noticed how handsome he looked.
He was elegant and chivalrous. His gold-rimmed glasses made him look like a distinguished
gentleman.
âSir⦠You look a bit familiarâ¦â Bella rubbed her throbbing temples.
Christopher narrowed his deep, upturned eyes and thought, âShe forgot.â
Suddenly, the door was kicked open.
Justin barged in like a bull, aggressive and unstoppable.
Christopherâs face darkened, and a cold light flashed through his lenses.
âMr. Iverson, this is Mr. Salvador, president of the Salvador Corporation,â Christopherâs secretary
reminded him in a low voice, looking shocked.
âKick him out.â Christopher raised his chin and did not bother with pleasantries.
The secretary nodded and walked over to Justin. âMr. Salvador, please leave immediatelyâ¦â Before
the secretary finished speaking, the angry Justin had already knocked him over and strode up to Bella.
He was like a looming iceberg, enveloping her in a dark and cold shadow.
Bella did not realize what was going on. She rubbed her sleepy eyes like a child and raised her head.
The next second, she was shocked. âJustin? Why are youâ¦â
âCome with me.â Justin interrupted her mid-sentence.
Justin suppressed his anger and pulled her slender arm without effort. Soon, Bellaâs soft body was
pressed against his.
He was overwhelmed with rage at this moment.
Justin thought, âThis woman stole my project during the day. Now, sheâs celebrating with this nameless
man?! He looks like a hypocritical, pretty boy! Does she have a conscience?!â
âWhy should I go with you? Who the hell are you?!â
Bella was almost sober. She struggled to get out of Justinâs grasp. âLet go of me! Why are you following
me everywhere I go? Are you a dog? Why should I go with you?!â
âBella, donât test my patience!â Justin gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. His veins on his forearm
were bulging.
Christopherâs eyes darkened. Suddenly, he grabbed Bellaâs other wrist.
Bella was caught in the middle and pulled from both sides. She felt like they were about to rip her apart.
âCanât you see that Ms. Thompson doesnât want to go with you? Are you trying to take her away
against her own will?â Christopherâs pale lips curled into a sneer.
âItâs not your place as an outsider to comment on my relationship with her!â Justin was so furious that
the veins on his forehead bulged.
Christopher adjusted his glasses and glared at Justin with blazing eyes. âIf I am an outsider, who are
you to Ms. Thompson?â
Bella and Justin looked at each other and spoke in unison.
Justin said, âIâm her husband!â
Bella shouted, âHeâs my ex-husband!â
