Chapter 2173
Bella's eyes swirled with a crimson tide, and her insides felt like they were being tightly squeezed by a giant hand, turning into a blurry mess of blood and flesh.
After a moment, she said, "You're right, Christopher. I've been constantly thinking about your death."
"Haha... Bella, you're really cute." Christopher's voice brimmed with deep affection. If not for the phone between them, he would have wanted to kiss her. "Even though you hate me, I still love you. I can't stop myself from doing so."
“Does a cold-blooded snake like you even understand what love is?" Bella's eyes glinted like a blade, her chest churning with disgust. "Don't you dare taint such pure emotion! You're not worthy to even mention that word."
"Bella, I love you. Besides, I don't think I've done anything wrong." Christopher's voice grew lower, filled with suppressed pain. "My love for you is the purest and most sincere in this world. From the beginning till the end, I have only loved you. I have only wanted you."
Bella shut her eyes tightly and took a deep breath. She nearly vomited from the force of her emotions.
"Justin has never loved you. He loves another woman. You sacrificed three years of your youth to marry him, gave him everything, and cared for him meticulously. Yet his heart was always with another woman. He gave her all his tenderness. He even cast you, his so-called wife, aside.
"When you returned to the Thompson family with a heart full of wounds, he saw you repeatedly demonstrate your abilities and reclaim your status as the heiress of KS Group. That was when he developed feelings for you. But if you had remained the silent, demure woman by his side, would Justin have noticed you? Would he have loved you? He wouldn't have. Isn't this just the same as being fickle and changeable?"
Bella's long lashes fluttered as she tried to steady herself. Yet she still felt these malicious words slicing through her heart like a blunt knife, slowly and deeply.
"From the day I met you when I was ten until now, I have never loved another woman. I have only ever loved you, Bella." Christopher's voice flowed like hot sand, lingering in her ears with a deep, obsessive madness. "For you, I can go mad. I can destroy the entire world for you. My life has always been dark and cold. You're the only one who can enter my heart. You're the only lively and vibrant being that I have always longed for. Justin's love is shallow and fickle. He was even slow to realize it. How could his cheap affection ever compare to mine? What right does he have to love you?” "Christopher, are you still trying to use such despicable methods to drive a wedge between us now? Just give up already." Bella laughed, her strong love dispelling all darkness. "Yes, Justin did like someone else before. He did hurt me, but even so, I still want to love him and be with him. As for you, no matter how many tricks you play or how much you manipulate people's hearts, I still only see you as a rat in the gutter."
As she finished her sentence, she completely ignored his passionate feelings and mocked him mercilessly. "Christopher, don't you think you're pathetic?"Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Christopher fell into a suffocating silence.
Then he spoke softly. "Bella, if that's the case, let me see you one last time, okay?"
Bella clenched her teeth. "In your dreams!"
"Bella, who are you on the phone with?" Holding a basket full of fresh flowers, Camilla stood in the flower bed and looked at Bella's back. “Is something wrong?"
"No, it's nothing, Camilla!" Bella responded with a bright smile.
The next second, her phone vibrated—
She received a text message.
"Bella, don't rush to answer me. Look at what I sent you first, then decide." The man spoke seductively.
Bella bit her lower lip and opened the message. A clear photo jumped out at her.
The picture was taken from a low angle, and the person in the photo was her brother-in-law, Edward, giving a speech on stage in front of a captivated audience.
"Christopher... What exactly do you want?!"
Bella's face turned deathly pale, her almond-shaped eyes burning red. "I warn you, don't you dare touch my family, or I will kill you with my own hands!"
Chapter 2173 1
A bone-piercing chill ran up Bella's stiff spine.
Overwhelmed by immense terror, Bella felt her mind buzz, and her chest ached so much she could hardly breathe.
Her brother-in-law had diverted part of the police force to assist Justin and her brother. He also sent another group to protect her and her sister. The event had far fewer police officers present.
If Christopher decided to target her brother-in-law now, it would be all too easy to take his life.
"The President and your sister share
a deep bond. If he dies today, do you
think your sister can handle such a blow? Would she have any reason left to
live?" Christopher's tone was calm. Yet his calm tone made him sound even more sinister and terrifying.
Bella slowly turned around, looking at Camilla, who was completely oblivious to the precarious situation. She spoke in a hoarse voice. "Don't do anything to my brother-in-law. I'll go see you."
“Alright, Bella.” Christopher smiled in satisfaction. "I'll be waiting for you at the Rose Nursing Home in the eastern suburbs of the Western District."
Suddenly, his voice dropped to a
menacing tone. "Don't tell anyone about this, especially Justin. I don't want anyone ruining our meeting You know me, Bella. When I
angry, I might do soine
unpredictable. I'm not sure what I'm fully capable of either."
With that, the phone screen went dark, and the call ended.
