Chapter 915
“I screwed up so badly, Declan. There’s no way I can make up for
what I did.”
Bella closed her eyes in agony and cried in Asher’s arms.
They had seen Bella cry before.
Bella had cried her fair share of tears throughout her childhood. The
public saw Bella as a valiant soldier and a proud queen. Only her
brothers knew Bella was just an ordinary girl who was vulnerable and
in need of love.
It was different this time.
Bella suffered a devastating blow, and they believed it could take a
long time before she could overcome the trauma.
Asher and Drew got the full story while on their way to the scene.
Despite being severely injured, Steven was alive and had a chance to
recover.
Linny’s vitals were failing when she was transported into the ICU.
Bella nearly dropped to her knees to beg the doctors to save Linny’s
life.
The brothers silently prayed for the brave and poor Linny to pull
through.
“Asher, I heard that Steve is badly injured. Have the Lovetts been
contacted?” Axel asked with concern.

Asher turned glùm. “When Steve was wheeled into the surgery room, he urged me not to tell his parents, as they are old. Mrs. Lovett is not in good health, and the news might be too hard for her to accept.”
Axel said, “But it would take several months for Steve to get better.
We can keep the incident a secret now, but not for long.”
“In that case, we should wait until after the surgery when Steve’s
vitals are stable to tell the Lovetts. They would find it easier to accept
the truth then.”
“All of you are here.” Ralph rushed over.
The Thompson brothers were together at last. These heirs were
successful in their own right, and Bella could not be prouder of them.
Yet the presence of her brothers could not comfort Bella.
She still felt unsettled.
A fragile girl took a bullet for her, and she watched helplessly as Linny collapsed. Anyone with a tinge of conscience would be lost in
overwhelming guilt.
“Ralph, didn’t you go to the station to take statements? Why are-”
Drew paused in shock.
Somehow, Justin stood tall, keeping several steps away to give the
family some space.
lan quietly stood behind Justin and looked at the Thompson brothers, feeling nervous for Justin.
Even if Justin and Bella got back together, life for Justin after

marriage would be less than peaceful.
