Chapter 525

Bella’s sharp gaze swept his way, and the “Prince of Savrow”

immediately lowered his gaze and took a step back obediently, like a

puppy.

lan hurriedly stepped forward. “Y-Young Madam…”

“Who’s your young madam?” Bella frowned.

as

“M-Ms. Thompson! Mr. Salvador transferred to a different hospital

because he was afraid you would be worried after finding out

injured and it would affect your recovery,” lan muttered timidly

The young madam was no longer as gentle and docile as sh

back when she lived with the Salvadors and had instead become

domineering and covered in thorns. Every time he came face-to-fa

with her, his heart thumped anxiously.

“Ha! Mr. Salvador is overthinking it. Who said I would be worried

about him?” Bella sneered with a raised eyebrow.

“Then if you weren’t worried about Mr. Salvador, you wouldn’t have

come after him so quickly, would you…?” lan looked up and mustered

the courage to retort.

“You-!” Bella glared at him.

Justin’s eyelashes fluttered as he leaned against the bed, his lips

silently curling.

lan was usually a bit dull and sometimes did not get the job done

well, but right now, he had said exactly what he was thinking.

Justin could give lan a bonus.

Bella commanded coldly, “All of you, out.”

“Ms. Bella…”

There was a worried expression on Steven’s face as he opened his mouth, but he was interrupted

before he could talk. “Steve, you go out

as well.”

The queen had spoken, and no one dared to disobey. The three men filed out of the room in a single

file.

When the door closed, Bella walked up to Justin, still frowning dee in part anger and part worry.

“I’ve looked at your case history, and it was a very serious impact injury. If you’d been treated any later,

you would have hemorrhaged and died.”

“But I wasn’t treated any later, and I didn’t die.”

Justin’s tone was calm, and his voice was husky. He met her eyes with a tender and deep gaze. “Bella,

don’t forget that I’ve been on the battlefield. I’ve suffered all sorts of things and been injured in all sorts

of ways. This is nothing.”

Bella felt as if she had been scalded by his burning gaze. The memory of when they fought side by side

and had each other’s back on the battlefields of Kridor came to mind.

No matter how unruffled she seemed, the moment she recalled those dangerous years she had spent

advancing and retreating amidst gunfire, her heart would still surge uncontrollably and her palms

would begin to sweat. Even her breathing would quicken.

“I’m very grateful to you for saving me, but you don’t have to go that far. You could have told me that

you were injured, and I would have found a way to treat you. What were you thinking, hiding from me

like this?” Bella gazed deeply at him, her voice trembling slightly.

“lan already mentioned the reason earlier,” Justin said lightly, not feeling like it was a big deal.

“It was your back, wasn’t it? Take off your gown and turn over.”

Bella ignored Justin, her attitude remaining cold. “Hurry up. What are you being so shy for, big man?

Do you think I’m going to take advantage of you?”

Justin smiled bitterly. “No. If you wanted to, you would have done so three years ago.”

“Hmph! I wanted to back then, but did you give me any opportunity to? You were so defensive against

me, like I was a thief.”

Bella instantly felt like she should not have said that, like she had just dug a hole for herself to fall into,

and could not help but blush slightly.

Justin was stunned by this, and a rush of bitter regret immediately swelled in his heart. The atmosphere

became awkward.

One by one, he unfastened the ties of his hospital gown and slid it off his upper body to reveal his

manly, muscular body. The scars on his skin, however, were more eye-catching.

It was not that Bella had never seen Justin’s naked body before. She was just amazed at how well

Justin maintained his figure.

She unconsciously swallowed before coldly ordering, “Lie down.”
