Justin could not help but feel distressed. He patted his best friend's shoulder and said, "Bring Carrie over to our house sometime. I'll ask Bella to comfort her. Carrie listens to her sister-in-law the most. Coincidentally, I've learned some new recipes recently. If you two come over, you can enjoy my cooking thanks to Bella."

Ryan's face turned green, and he shook. "Are you inviting us over for dinner or asking us to be your guinea pig?"

Justin was speechless.

"You even want to drag my wife to suffer along with me. Do you still have a conscience?"

"I'm inviting you so you can learn from how I took care of Bella. If you could do the same, your relationship with Carrie would only become sweeter. Truly loving someone means not only spending time with her, but you also need to try doing things you've never done before for her. You need to be willing to learn what you don't know." When Justin said this, his eyes shone with a warm glow.

He avenged his mother, and the woman he loved most reciprocated his feelings.

He thought his life was complete, and he could not be happier.

Therefore, Justin sincerely hoped his best friend could tie the knot with Carrie, leading a happy and fulfilled life.

Ryan took a deep breath and looked at him with an intense gaze. "Justin, I'm prepared. In the next couple of days, I'm going to officially ask Chairman Salvador for Carrie's hand. I wanted to wait for my appointment as president to be announced, but I can't wait any longer. I want to give Carrie a title and marry her quickly. I really love her."

Ryan's voice trembled slightly. He even choked up, indicating the depth of his love.

"You're not wrong. You don't have to become the Hoffman Group's president to marry Carrie. The business and assets you accumulated outside over the years were enough to amount to half of the Hoffman Group."

Justin met his affectionate eyes and was moved. "If you've made up your mind, go for it. Bella and I will support you fully. Good luck, brother!"

After hearing from Matt that Nigel was not feeling well, Bella quickly called Justin and rushed toward Crescent Bay.

Matt finally spoke the truth after her relentless questions.

It turned out Nigel had been unwell for a while. He had trouble sleeping and had no appetite. His personal doctor visited daily but could not find anything specific, only saying that it was digestive problems due to old age and recommending generic medicine.

Nigel had kept his illness from the couple, afraid of worrying them.

On the way, Bella's face was as pale as paper. She felt as if she were sitting on needles.

"Bella, don't worry."

Justin's large hands rested on Bella's waist, gradually tightening, pulling her into his embrace slowly but firmly. "The personal doctor I hired for Grandpa is nationally renowned. If he said it's nothing serious, then it shouldn't be a problem. But Grandpa is getting old, and his body functions are deteriorating. Occasional digestive issues and loss of appetite are normal. If you're worried, we will stay at Crescent Bay to accompany Grandpa for some time. That way, you can help to observe Grandpa's condition. What do you say?"

He was indeed always attentive to her emotions and perfectly considerate.

Bella was engulfed in the man's warm breath, and she asked softly, "Are you willing to move?"
