Chapter 1078
Christopher had tears in his eyes. His lips were pale as he bit them.
He perfectly portrayed himself as a pitiful man who was misunderstood by the woman he loved. He was completely immersed in it, forgetting that the person who caused those deadly troubles for Bella was himself.
Bella stared at him, her calm eyes surging with complicated emotions underneath.
“What happened? Bella, can you tell me? What did I do to make you misunderstand me? You have to let me know!” Christopher kept asking, sweating all over.
The man, who was usually calm and restrained, seldom appeared so distressed.
Bella knew she would not get anything now. She only said these to warn Christopher and pressure him, seeing if he would expose himself after getting flustered . It was also a cruel way to tell him to give up on her.
It was impossible between them.
Even their friendship could not continue to exist.
“It’s fine if you don’t admit knowing Maxwell. What about Edward and Camilla?"
The burning anger made Bella’s shoulders shake uncontrollably. “How did you plot against them for your benefit in Sentania? Are you going to deny that too?"
“Bella, the people in my company did slander your brother-in-law, but when I realized he was your brother-in-law, I immediately ordered them to stop. But you know that I don’t own the company alone. Many of the shareholders had a lot to say. They were against it when I asked them to stop the plan. I’ve tried my best to suppress them, but I couldn’t stop all their little tricks!"
Christopher continuously explained in a hoarse voice, “Bella, please believe me! I love you so much... For fifteen years! How could I bear to hurt your family and make you sad?"
Bella merely looked at him. A suffocating silence spread between them.
After a while, she parted her lips. “Go back. If you won’t, I will."
When she tured around, Christopher suddenly hugged her from behind. He pleaded, “Bella, don’t leave me."
