How could Justin control someone elseâs dreams?
However, he was indeed an asshole in the past, probably leaving quite a shadow in Bellaâs heart.
âWhy donât you try to contact Mr. Asher? We know that Young Madam has returned to Hatchbay, and
Mr. Asher will definitely know Young Madamâs whereabouts!â lan racked his brains and thought of an
idea.
Justin glanced at him coldly. âI am the president of the Salvador Corporation. How could I fail to find
one person and even have to call her family? What if Asher doesnât know where she is? Do I have to
call all her brothers? Get lost! Youâre an eyesore.â
âYes, sir. Iâll take my leave now!â
lan knew Justin was in a bad mood, so he quietly retreated.
After he closed the car door, Justin immediately took his p and dialed Asherâs number.
âMr. Salvador, are you feeling better?â Asherâs tone was calm revealing no other emotions.
âIs Bella with you?â Justin sounded a little anxious.
âBella is not with me. Why? Are you unable to contact my sister?â
Justin heaved a sigh. âShe didnât pick up my calls. I called her seve times.â
âOh, thatâs expected.â
Justin was rendered speechless.
âIâm not sure where Bella went. Sheâs not a kid anymore. She doesnât
need to report her whereabouts to me. In the past, she even lost
contact with us for a few years to be with you.â
âFor me? She didnât contact her family for years? Why?â Justin was surprised and questioned
sensitively.
Noticing that he had slipped up, Asher quickly changed the topic. âMr. Salvador, is there anything
urgent you need Bella for? Does your head hurt?â
âNo. Iâm just worried about her.â
âThereâs no need. Bella always knew how to avoid danger and protect herself. When she wants to meet
you, she will naturally appear. If you canât reach her, it means she doesnât want to see you for the time
being.â
Listening to Asherâs words, Justin felt as if his heart was pricked by needles. Although it was not fatal,
the tingling pain spread throughout his body.
After hanging up, he fell into a daze and despair. His phone was drenched with sweat from his palms.
However, Asherâs words caused a ripple in his heart.
Bella did not contact her family for a few years. Coincidentally, he had the same experience.
During those years when she left home, what did she do? Where did she go? Why had he never heard
of her mentioning it?
After entering the racecourse, Christopher still grabbed Bellaâs hand tightly without letting go.
âChris? Chris? Christopher!â
Christopher returned to his senses after Bella called him three times.â
What?â
Bella pursed her lips, glaring at him. She lowered her gaze and looked
at their clasped hands.
âSorry, Bella. I was too fired up just now. I apologize.â
Christopherâs eyes flickered as he slowly released her hand.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
They were both unmarried adults, and Bella had been divorced once. She was not a teenage girl who
knew nothing. If she fixated on holding hands with a man, it might seem pretentious.
Bella took a deep breath and said seriously, âWhy didnât you them who you were earlier? If you make it
clear, there will be no misunderstanding, and you donât need to resort to violence.â
âBella, do you think theyâd let me in if I told them my identity?â
Christopher smiled mockingly. âThey would only inform my broth and I would be denied entry anyway.
The results would be the same
Bella did not press further. She had no intention of meddling in the Iverson brothersâ fight. It was not
something an outsider like her could manage.

âChris, why did you bring me to a racecourse? To ride a horse?â
âI want you to see a horse. I guarantee youâll love it.â
