At this moment, for the first time in his life, Justin felt the urge to show off. He wanted to take a picture
and send it to Ryan.
Ryan should know that he was not the only one who could come to
Bellaâs house. Look, he also made it!
âJustin, what are you looking around at?â
Bella glanced at him in surprise. âDo you know you look like a thief just now?â
âSorry.â Justin quickly retracted his gaze, feeling that he had lost his composure.
âExcept for the last room on the left side of the second floor, you can choose any other room to stay in.
I have some ingredients left by
Steven in the fridge, so you can make yourself some food. I donât have a cook here,â Bella said
casually and went upstairs.
âWhy canât I enter that room?â Justin asked foolishly.
âBecause thatâs my bedroom.â
Bella suddenly halted. She turned around and looked at Justin with a sneer. âRest assured, I donât have
any secrets that canât be seen or any lovers I canât forget. If you want to visit my bedroom, you can do
so now.â
For some reason, she was being sarcastic.
When she thought about those old photos of Rosalind, still carefully treasured in the study until now,
she felt an unavoidable sense of pain in her heart.
It was because Bella still cared about Justin. She could not resist bringing it up whenever she had a
chance to imitate him.
She was merely a mortal, not a saint,
Could she not hold a grudge and throw a small tantrum?
âBellaâ¦â
Justinâs eyes glittered with tears. He knew Bella was still upset about what happened at the villa,
However, a flame of hope had rekindled in his heart. If Bella truly did not love him anymore and was
only together with him for revenge, there was no need for her to mention this.
If she brought it up, it meant she cared about his past and him.
âSuit yourself. Iâll go up first.â
Bellaâs voice became noticeably deep and hoarse. âI hope you adjust your mindset soon. Our revenge
is about to begin.â
âBella, Iâve sold that villa and got rid of everything inside except for my motherâs photos.â Justin felt as if
a heavy rock pressed on his chest, almost suffocating him.
Bella looked indifferent. âIt has nothing to do with me. Those are your personal belongings, and you
can handle them as you see fit.â
âI know their existence has hurt you.
âThatâs because you wanted them to exist. Youâre hesitant to get rid of them.â Bella chuckled, sounding
a little relieved.
âIâve completely forgotten about it. Iâve asked lan to sell the villa long ago, but he never got around to
it.â
Justin knew his explanation was futile, but he still felt bitter and tried to explain with reddened eyes. âI
was drugged that night and only semi -conscious. I donât remember anything that happened at all.
Ryan didnât want me to stay in a hotel in that state, and he couldnât send me back to Tideview Manor.
He only knew about that villa, so he sent me there without askingâ¦..â
âJustin, Iâve said that itâs your business and has nothing to do with me.â
Bella closed her eyes and raised her hand, gesturing for Justin to stop. âIâm tired.â
âHow does it have nothing to do with you? Donât you resent me for it?â Justin sweated in anxiousness,
breathing heavily.
âItâs not the only thing I resent about you.â
Justin felt a sting in his heart, and he clenched his fists.
âBut now, I think thereâs nothing to resent you for. Itâs all in the past.â
Bella turned around slowly and spoke in a casual tone, not realizing that her eyes had turned red.
âJustin, letâs look forward. Even the most heart-breaking emotional entanglements are not worth
mentioning in the face of hatred. It will only affect our progress.â
