Chapter 746
Faced with Bella’s honesty, Christopher felt his heart ache. His hands. were tightly clenched under the bedsheets.
“Justin and I were married for three years, but I’ve known him for even longer than that, much longer than you can imagine,” Bella spoke
calmly.
She could not deny that those memories still caused a slight
heartache. “He was once my entire world. But later, he tore my heart
apart when he divorced me. If it were you, could you turn a blind eye
to someone like that? Could you truly expect me to forget everything
that happened?”
“Bella, I…” Christopher began, but Bella interrupted him.
“But don’t think that my life revolves solely around Justin. It’s not that
extreme.” Bella waved her hand casually, masking the sadness in her eyes. “Life must go on. I just need some time.”
“Bella, no matter how long it takes, I’ll wait for you.” Christopher’s
pale face showed the anguish he felt. He struggled to sit up, but Bella
stopped him.
“Chris! You’re still injured! Don’t move recklessly!”
“Even if it takes 10 years, 20 years, or a lifetime, I’m willing to wait for you to heal. I’ll wait for you to notice me.” Christopher’s voice
quivered as he held Bella’s hand tightly.
“Let go of me first. Stop behaving like this.” Bella widened her eyes, quickly pulling her hand away.
As Christopher was still weak, his body swayed, and he nearly fell off
the bed.
“Mr. Iverson, be careful!” Taylor rushed to support him and pleaded
with Bella. “Ms. Thompson, I beg you. Can you look after Mr. Iverson,
considering he suffered a serious injury for your sake? Even a small
gesture would suffice.”
“Taylor, forget it. Don’t trouble Ms. Thompson. Cough, cough…”
Christopher held his chest and coughed a few times. His forehead
was drenched in sweat. “She’s not at fault. It’s me… I was too
stubborn.”
Bella furrowed her brows lightly, remaining silent.
At that moment, a series of “dings” echoed in the room as multiple
phones rang simultaneously.
Bella felt a wave of confusion wash over her. While two phones
ringing might be dismissed as a coincidence, the simultaneous
ringing of three phones raised suspicions. She took out her phone
and looked at the screen.
It was a Twitter notification.
