Chapter 595

Chapter 595

Ryan was especially stunned. He stared blankly at the teary-eyed girl in his arms. He gulped, and a

thought flashed through his mind. ‘I

want to take her home. I really want to bring her back with me.’

“Carrie, d-do you want to follow him?” Bella stammered in

astonishment.

“Ryan…” Carrie buried her little head in the warmth of the man’s chest. Her trembling breath passed

through his crisp black shirt and penetrated straight into his heart. “I want to go home with you.”

With Carrie’s insistence, Bella and Justin had no choice but to agree.

Justin called Ryan out for a smoke. Thus, the two men went to the

hospital’s smoking area.

“Ryan, what happened to Carrie’s ear?” Justin pulled out two

cigarettes, took one for himself, and handed the other to his best

friend.

“What happened?” Ryan’s hawk-like eyes flashed with a fierce glint. ‘

It’s because you spoiled your sister, Bethany.”

“She’s not my sister. I only recognize Carrie as my sister.” Justin

could not help but feel repulsed by Bethany’s name.

He asked in a deep, chilly voice, “Did Bethany hurt Carrie?”

Ryan was so angry that he gritted his teeth and nearly crushed the

cigarette in his hand. “Justin, if I take action against Bethany, would you stand with the Salvador family

and stop me?”

Justin lit his cigarette and took a deep drag. He replied without hesitation, “I’ll pretend not to know

about the matter.”

His stance could not be clearer.

“Hehe. Thanks, bro.” Ryan smirked with a touch of wickedness and

patted Justin’s shoulder.

“But a lesson is enough. Don’t cause any harm to her, for your sake.” Justin cast a thought-provoking

glance. “If you really fall for Carrie

and intend to have a future with her, you have to cut off all your

affairs with other women and cleanse your body and mind. Also, you

shouldn’t shed blood anymore. You’re the heir of the Hoffman Group,

not a mafia boss. I’m worried about Carrie being with you with your

current lifestyle.”

“Justin, I only thought of Carrie as a sister. It’s not what you’re

thinking.” Ryan hurriedly explained, feeling a sharp pain in his chest.

However, his flickering gaze and trembling fingers betrayed his true

feelings.

Justin looked at him deeply and calmly said, “Don’t mind the grudges

between me and Shannon. Although Carrie is Shannon’s daughter, I’ve

never had any prejudice against her. Carrie is a good girl, and I hope she finds happiness.”

“Justin… I…” Ryan’s throat tightened as a hint of complex emotions

welled up in his heart.

“Even though you’re no saint and you have a whole bunch of bad

habits, I think you genuinely care for Carrie.” Justin gently blew out a smoke ring. He spoke like an

elderly sage. “So, I’m willing to give you

a chance to pursue her.”

Ryan thought, ‘What the hell? Why does this sound like a pep talk from my future father-in-law?’

“Are you going to smoke that damn thing or not?” Justin reached out

to grab Ryan’s cigarette. “If you’re not going to smoke, give it back.

That’s my last one.”

“It’s mine.” Ryan quickly placed it between his lips and twisted his

thick eyebrows. “When did you become such a miser? Your net worth

is almost a trillion dollars, but you can’t even spare a cigarette? No

-wonder I’m your only friend after all these years!”

“I’m trying to quit smoking, so I’m limiting myself to only half a pack a

day.”

“Why? Are you starting to focus on your health now that yo

years old? Then, you should probably swap out alcohol for de

juices.”

“It’s because of Bella.” Justin thought of his crush, his eyes filled with

warm ripples. “She dislikes it when I smoke. I know quitting is hard,

but I want to give it a try.”

“Tsk tsk… Back then, Bella disliked Rosalind, too. Why didn’t you kick Rosalind out?” Ryan found his

friend’s attempt to quit smoking for a woman particularly cheesy and could not help but tease him.
