Bella thought to herself, ‘What the hell is that bastard doing out there? Is he trying to gain sympathy by
doing this? Does he think that I’ll fall for such a despicable trick?!’
Bella’s heart burned with rage. She turned around and wanted to go. back to her room, but she
stopped after taking two steps.
The rain in late fall was not like the one in the summer. The temperatures in Savrow can reach below 0
Celsius at night during the fall.
Justin had been standing outside for 3 to 4 hours, and he was wearing thin clothes.
Bella thought, ‘What if he won’t leave? If he froze to death at my doorstep, wouldn’t I have to explain it
to the police? How troublesome!
Thinking of this, Bella quickly walked back to her room, picked up her phone, and called Justin.
As a result, Justin’s phone was turned off.
Bella could not understand what Justin was trying to do.
Justin’s self-torture did not arouse Bella’s sympathy, but it aroused her curiosity.
Thus, she quickly walked to the entrance, opened the door, and walked out with a huge black umbrella.
When Justin saw Bella’s thin and slender figure walking toward him, he thought he was hallucinating
from standing too long in the cold rain.
Justin only realized that Bella was real when she was right in front of him. He suddenly froze. A warmth
surged in his heart, and his eyes widened with joy.
“What on earth are you trying to do? Get yourself killed?!” Bella’s voice was sharp as she reprimanded
him.
“Are you cold, dressed like this?”
Justin still looked cold and emotionless. His hands trembled slightly as he unbuttoned the middle button
of his suit jacket. He wanted to take off his jacket and put it on for her, but he realized that his jacket
was already soaked through, so he froze in embarrassment.
“Why did you turn off your phone?” Bella asked, furious.
“The battery died,” Justin answered honestly, like a stupid husband being scolded by his wife.
Inexplicably, he was delighted by her fierceness. He was a bit masochistic.
“Were you planning to stand like this all night if I didn’t come out to see you?”
“Yes, I have something to tell you.”
Bella laughed in exasperation, her chest heaving. “Justin, why do you always make me despise you so
much? Apart from such despicable tricks, can’t you do something more original? Are you a scumbag or
the president of Salvador Corporation?”
“I don’t care what the means are as long as I can see you.” Justin’s deep voice was cold, but his eyes
were incredibly alluring.
Bella was so angry that her breathing became rapid. Her puffed-out, trembling chest made Justin’s
eyes darken with desire.
Fortunately, he was a gentleman with principles. Otherwise, no ordinary man would be able to control
himself with that view.
“You couldn’t sleep well tonight?”
“What?”
“I remember that you never got up at night before. You always slept until dawn.”
Bella’s heart trembled, and her grip on the umbrella handle tightened.
When they first got married, they slept in the same bed for almost half a year.
Even if they shared the same bed, Justin would only turn his back to her. There was always a huge gap
between them, like the Grand Canyon.
She knew that Justin was a light sleeper, but she did not know that he had also paid attention to her.
“Didn’t you have something to say? Spit it out! It’s cold out here!”
Bella couldn’t help but shiver.
“Let’s talk in the car.”
Justin grabbed the umbrella from her hand and quickly opened the
car door with his other hand. He pushed her into the car without further explanation.
The car was humid as soon as they got inside.

In the dim light, Bella noticed how Justin’s pale and thin lips were trembling slightly. His hands on his
knees were already turning purple from the cold.
She pursed her lips. Justin took out a blanket from somewhere and wrapped it tightly around her
delicate body.
“I found the person behind the expose. It’s a woman named Xena Gordon. Her father is Michael
Gordon. You should be familiar with him, so you should also know why she did this. Xena Gordon was
waiting for an opportunity to take revenge.”
Bella raised her eyes in shock. “You came here just to tell me this?”
“Yes, but not entirely.”
Justin’s restrained voice was trembling. “I also wanted to see if you were sad or affected by this
incident.”
