After a simple wash-up, Bella changed into a new outfit and joined Justin downstairs for a meal. It had been a while since she tasted Wilma's cooking, and she relished every bite. Wilma looked at Bella lovingly, as if she were seeing her long-lost daughter.

"Wow... It tastes so good!" Bella licked her lips and let out a cute burp, eagerly handing her bowl to Wilma. "Wilma, give me another bowl of mashed potatoes, filled to the brim!" "Got it, Young Madam!" Wilma happily filled the bowl with mashed potatoes.

The elders were all the same, feeling happy when they saw the younger generation eating heartily.

"Bella, take it easy. Don't overeat," Justin said in a gentle tone as he used a napkin to dab away the grease from her lips.

"Why are you eating so little? Are you on a diet?" Bella leaned towards him, enjoying the mouth-wiping service.

"I'm not very hungry."

"If you weren't hungry, you should have said so earlier. Wilma's fried fish and shrimp are so delicious, I saved some for you in case you didn't have enough."

Bella reached for the fried shrimp with her hands, behaving like a hungry little cat. "If you're not going to eat it, I'll gladly finish all of it!"

The tenderness that leaked from the depths of Justin's eyes seemed to be melting her.

This was how it should be. What he wanted was for Bella to be completely herself, without any reservations. He didn't want her to be gentle, obedient, or understanding. He just wanted her to be true to herself. After the satisfying meal, Bella happily sprawled out on the sofa in the living room. Justin took the fruit platter prepared by Wilma and was about to bring it to Bella when Wilma suddenly pulled him aside. Wilma whispered with a low voice, "Young Master, uh... I asked some old acquaintances in Savrow for some advice. They're all working as maids in various wealthy households. Almost every young madam they served had some trouble with childbirth. So... I asked them for some remedies. I'll send them to you later. You can take a look, and maybe have lan fetch some ingredients according to the remedies. That way, Young Madam can try it, and who knows if..."

"Wilma..." Justin's face darkened slightly.

Wilma raised three fingers solemnly, her eyes full of worry. "Young Master! I swear to the heavens that I only told my friends that a relative's child from my hometown had trouble with conception. I didn't mention a word about our Young Madam. I only reached out to friends I've known for over a decade, so they would never have ill intentions.!"

Justin bit his lips and frowned. "Wilma, I've told you before, more than once. I don't care if Bella can conceive or not. I'll love her, no matter what. My family doesn't have a throne to inherit. Even if I can't give the Salvador family grandchildren, and even if Gregory takes back my position at the company because of this, I don't think it's a big deal. I just want Bella to be safe and happy by my side. Raising a child is hard, and trying various methods just to have a child isn't only hard work, but it's also painful. I can't bear to see Bella suffer one bit."

"Young Master... Didn't you also contact a doctor in Switzerland? I just wanted to help you..." Wilma's voice was caught in her throat. "It's not that I feel aggrieved. I just feel sorry for Young Madam."

"I turned it down."

Justin lowered his long lashes and shook his head. "At that time, I had the same thought as you. I wanted to do everything to help Bella, partly to restore her health but also to make amends. But I gradually realized that doing so would only bring up her past sorrows time and time again. It would also make her misunderstand that I care deeply about whether she can have a child for me."

"It's my fault... I didn't think it through." Wilma rubbed her sore eyes. "Let's not talk about it anymore. I won't bring it up again. As long as you and the Young Madam can be together for a long time, what else matters?"

Justin calmed down and went back to the living room with the fruit platter.

He and Wilma were so engrossed in conversation that they did not notice that lan had arrived.

"Mr. Salvador, Young Madam, I have a few things to report to the both of you!"
