Chapter 936
“I’m going upstairs.”
Suddenly, Bella felt some weight press against her back, making her body lurch forward.
Justin embraced her tightly from behind. His entire being enveloped
her, wishing he could merge her into his body.
His sturdy chest, emanating with intense warmth, pressed against her slender back. His heartbeat pounded against her back with each pulse, leaving her head spinning and her body weak, with a tingling sensation spreading from her spine to her chest.
“Justin…” Bella’s breath came in hurried gasps as she called out his
name.
Though her tone betrayed a clear hint of resistance, she yielded without resistance this time.
“How could you deem it unworthy? Stop saying things like this.”
Justin tightened his embrace once more, his arms securing her fragile waist. His heated breath brushed against her fair and rosy neck.
“Twenty years ago, I lost the most important person in my life. And now, twenty years later, I’ve found the one and only person I want to spend my life with. I don’t want to lose you again. You’re my everything. Bella… Without you, every day feels like a living hell.”
‘Death is not terrifying. In fact, I would face it countless times for you.

But losing you is my greatest fear,’ Justin thought to himself.
The man rested his chin on her lustrous hair, gently brushing it as he
choked back on his emotions once more.
Justin, the epitome of pride and dominance, seemed like a god
untouched by mortal affairs.
It was very unlike him to appear so vulnerable, like a dog pleading for her mercy.
Bella faintly heard his restrained sobs. That night, Bella witnessed the proud facade he usually wore crumble before her eyes. How could she bring herself to trample upon it further?
Having witnessed his bravery on the battlefield, Bella knew just how fierce and ruthless Justin could be.
Yet at this moment, she could not help but sympathize with him.
Perhaps out of compassion, she decided to set aside their grievances for the night.
“Ah… It hurts…” Bella winced, her shoulder tensing in Justin’s embrace.
“It hurts? Where?!” Justin panicked his large hands gripping Bella’s shoulders.
“Ah! It hurts so bad! Right here…” Bella gasped in pain, her slender body trembling lightly in his embrace.
Earlier at the police station, she had restrained him with her body to calm him down, unaware that the stitches holding her wound
together had reopened.

It was not until they left the police station that she began to feel pain, but being the resilient person she was, she intended to deal with it
herself once they returned home.
However, the oblivious Justin had no sense of awareness, clinging to her and babbling incessantly. Not only did he refuse to let go, but he also gripped Bella tightly. It made her wonder why he did not just crush her to death.
Justin, who only realized his mistake afterward, released Bella with a dazed expression.
