Chapter 1080

“Bella, are you still not asleep yet?” Justin’s voice was deep and gentle, captivating her heart.

But somehow, it made Bella feel safe and reassured.

“I’m not sleepy.” Bella got up, walked to the balcony, and watched the moon as she felt the night breeze on her face.

“Was it because you left me and have nobody to hold you as your sleep?” Justin chuckled. “Pft, of course not! A man is not everything to me!” Bella’s face flushed, but her mouth remained stubborn.

“But Bella, you are my everything.”

Justin’s sudden confession made her heart beat faster. The blood her body became increasingly hot, almost to the boiling point.

She missed him so much..

Bella could ignore it before the call, but once she heard his voice, her longing for him became relentless. “What were you busy with today?” She changed the topic.

“Except for breathing, | spent my time missing you.”

“Justin, although | like sweet words, this is becoming too corny.” Bella shrugged, feeling goosebumps form on her fair skin.

Justin finally got down to business. “There’s something | haven’t told Chapter 1080

you. Today, the men | sent to Richmond sent news.”

“Richmond… You’re looking for the maid who was bribed by Shannon to switch out your mother’s depression meds?!” Bella immediately

reacted and made the connection.

“Yes, I’ve always been looking for that person. However, she was cunning and careful, not living in the city area. She had also changed her name. The restaurant she ran closed down half a year ago. | heard that her husband had gambling debts, so their restaurant was used as collateral. My men searched through the whole of Richmond and finally found that maid in a village. She’s living in poverty now, abused by her husband, and her son joined a local gang, having been in jail for two years for theft. Her life was a total failure.”

“Serves her right. God is punishing her!”

Bella indignantly gritted her teeth and said, “Even if she lived worse than an animal, it could not make up for all the evil deeds she had done! Because of her greed, a life was lost. She should pay w

life!” “But before that, | must capture her and control her.”

At this point, Justin calmed down and took every step carefully. “An we have to do everything in secret. If Shannon or Bethany find out

about my plan, they might try to silence her.”

Bella nodded in agreement.

“Bella, how are things on your side? Your dad…”

“It’s great. Everything’s fine.” Bella forced a smile. “Really? But | feel like you have something on your mind.”

Justin’s heart was with her. Even

There’s nothing. Don’t overthink it

Hella took a deep breath and said gently, “Rest well and wait for me to Justin’s voice, tinged with a smile, reached her ears. “I’m always Waiting for you”
