Chapter 929
Bella stopped teasing Ralph and put on a serious expression. “Ralph,
is the phone repaired?”
“It’s quite challenging to repair it, but our colleagues in the technical department are all professionals.”
Ralph turned to look at Justin. “Mr. Salvador, we’ll need you to stay
behind for a statement later.”
“Sure. I came to cooperate with the police.”
Justin’s calm eyes glinted, and his gaze fell on Bella’s face, unable to
look away.
Bella felt his intense gaze. She pursed her lips, intentionally ignoring

The three walked into the police station. Although it was already
nighttime, the presence of Bella and Justin walking in together still

“Breathe in. Listen to me and take a deep breath…”
He spoke softly into her ear, guiding her with a soothing voice wh

Bella closed her eyes tightly and clenched her fists. She leaned

witness.
Ralph observed their interaction without intervening, only letting out a
