Chapter 1089
Just a moment ago, Justin’s gaze toward Zoe was icy and distant.
But the instant he laid eyes on Bella, his expression softened , like the first thaw of ice and snow, radiant like spring sunshine.
Zoe had known this man for many years, and even when she was just a child, his treatment of her, though gentle, was always distant.
This showed just how unique and significant Bella was in his heart.
Zoe felt her teeth clenching. Her eyes burned with jealousy as she watched Justin approach his one true love.
Bella was not oblivious to the man approaching her.
Being taller than everyone else, Justin’s presence immediately drew everyone’s attention as he made his way over.
“Bella, that guy’s coming for you,” Asher whispered in her ear, his typically serious tone now laced with playful banter.
“Why bother with him? Let’s just pretend we didn’t see him.”
Bella pouted with frustration, her heart pounding intensely. “We agreed to keep things low-key today and not cause any trouble. Why won’t he listen ?! He used to hang on to my every word like it was law. But now he’s completely changed! What a deceitful liar!”
Bella vented her frustration, hurling insults like “deceitful” and “liar”.
Asher could not help but suppress a smile at the scene, further confirming the age old saying thal sometimes criticism is a form of affection.
Meanwhile, Wyatt and Celeste had already linked arms and were walking down the red carpet amidst the astonished gazes of the public.
Bella had discreetly tailored Celeste’s outfit for the horse racing event to fit her perfectly.
Celeste’s outfit matched Bella's in color but with a more refined and tasteful design in the form of a tailored skirt suit. An additional layer of sheer fabric was added to her hat, partially veiling her graceful and charming features and exuding an elegant charm.
