âWell⦠I canât say for sure, but heâs not looking good! I sent him back to his private villa. Arenât you a
doctor? Come take a look at him!â
In an instant, several horrible scenarios played out in Bellaâs mind.
Justinâs side effects from his injury had become a haunting concern
for her.
When Ryan said there was a problem, her first reaction was that it
was a post-traumatic symptom.
âSend me the address. Iâll head over now.â Bella frowned and ended
the call.
Arnold had just finished smoking a cigarette and wanted to get into the car when he heard the engine
roar. The car door was also locked!
âHey, open the door! Let me in.â He pulled at the door.
âSomething came up. Go back on your own.â Bella stared fo d gripped the steering wheel.
âMs. Thompson, are you kidding me? This is Savrow, not Hat
Where should I return to?â
Arnold was speechless. âSend me back now!â
âCall my brother and get him to pick you up.â
As her voice fell, Bellaâs car whizzed past Arnold.
Bella went to the address Ryan sent her and quickly arrived at Justinâs
private villa.
When she stood at the door, she could not describe the emotions
churning inside her.
It was depressing and bitter.
This villa was one of Justinâs personal assets, the one he stayed in
most often. She had learned about it from Wilma.
Wilma told her that when Justin was in a bad mood or unwilling to return to Tideview Manor, he would
stay overnight at this villa, not with another woman. Wilma used this to comfort Bella, who was all
alone.
Wilma even suggested she look for Justin at this villa, but Bella
refused.
Bella thought that Justin was in a bad mood because he could not meet the person he wanted to, and
returning to Tideview Mar would only mean encountering the woman he did not want to see.
Why would Bella humiliate herself by going to this villa? She w satisfied with being an invisible person
by his side.
That was enough for her, until that day, when she got into a car accident with Nigel and lost her unborn
child as a result.
One night, when Bella lay on the hospital bed to recuperate, she received an overseas phone call from
Rosalind.
âBella, do you think youâve obtained Justinâs heart just because you married him? You will never have
him. Weâve been spending the past
few days together. Justin also gave me a necklace thatâs the only one
in
5 World You were with him for so long. Has he ever given you
something? By the way, the villa by Phoenix Lake in the eastern
suburbs was a gift from Justin. We used to date there. Did he tell you
about these?â
After that call, Bella had another serious bleeding episode that night
and was in critical condition.
Although her stepmothers rushed to her and stayed by her side, taking care of her, Bella was still weak.
She might never be able to bear children again.
For a woman who wanted to have biological children in the future, this was asking to a death sentence.
