Chapter 539

Justin felt as if his heart was filled with sharp shards.

He clenched his own shirt, thinking to himself, ‘No, of course not, Bella. I’m not someone who acts on a

whim. My feelings for you are not a passing fancy. Is delayed affection not considered love?

Thirteen years ago, we faced life and death together. Thirteen years later, we continue to face

hardships side by side. We are destined to be inextricably bound in this lifetime.’

For the first time in his life, Justin experienced the difficulty of holding back words of love.

Justin felt the frustration of having so much to say but being unable to speak. But in the end, he chose

silence.

He knew that now was not the time to speak. What he needed was act.

Although Bella had recovered from her fever, her body was not fu recovered.

Bella was exhausted after the last three days of turmoil. She could no longer be bothered guarding

against the ‘wolf’ any longer.

She fell asleep shortly after her head touched the pillow.

But Justin kept his eyes open, staring straight at her as if he were guarding her without any signs of

drowsiness.

Only when he was sure that Bella had genuinely fallen asleep did he endure the pain and climb out of

bed. He tiptoed over to the sofa.

Originally, he had planned to admire Bella’s tranquil and lovely sleeping face. But he felt sorry for letting

her sleep on the sofa.

Thus, he gently lifted her delicate and soft body.

He lowered his long eyelashes as he cradled her in his arms. His palms were slightly sweaty.

He also could not resist brushing his sharp jawline against her soft hair.

“Mm…” Bella let out a soft whimper in his embrace.

She resembled a sleeping baby having a dream.

Justin’s eyes deepened, and his throat felt both dry and itchy.

He had a strong desire to kiss her, and his lips hovered just above hers. In the end, he couldn’t bear to

do it.

He used to think that he had married a demure little flower. Now, realized that she was a charming

enchantress who captured his hea and soul.

Bella woke up from her sleep the next morning and lazily stretched her waist under the quilt.

She slept unexpectedly comfortably last night.

Wait a minute.

Bella sprang up and looked around. Only then did she discover that she was actually sleeping on the

bed!

‘What’s going on? Did I sleepwalk?’

Bella quickly uncovered the blanket, finding herself still dressed.

Considering that the bed was a narrow single bed and Justin’s robust figure, it should be impossible for

her to squeeze in…

There was no way she would not have felt it if he did.

At this moment, Justin was nowhere to be seen in the ward.

Bella pounded the bed with her fists, cursing under her breath.

With such severe injuries, he still dared to wander around. It was like he was looking to shorten his own

life!

Just then, a knock came from outside, along with Steven’s voice. “Ms. Bella? Have you woken up?”

“Come in.” Bella, afraid that Steven might misunderstand, jumped off the bed and walked to the sofa.

Steven pushed the door open with his back and walked in. He held two large, high-end food boxes in

his hands. “Mr. Asher and Mr.

Declan are on their way from Hatchbay to Savrow. They’re coming to pick you up together. After

picking you up, they plan to have lunch, and then Mr. Declan will return to Dawnford.”

Bella rubbed her slightly sore temples and sighed.

She had indeed alerted her brothers after all. She diverted her attention to the food boxes and asked,

“What do you have there?”

“It’s from Justin. He had his secretary prepare breakfast for you.”

Steven placed the two large food boxes on the coffee table, looking dissatisfied.
