The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

"I drew it in a rush, so it looks rough. It could be better." Carrie felt embarrassed, thinking that using such a crude thing as a return gift might not be adequate. "No, it's good. It's really good."

Ralph struggled to control himself, but he was so overjoyed that his voice trembled. He said hoarsely, "Thank you, Carrie... I love it. Oh, right!"

He leaned back into the car and took a bag of candied apples he bought, handing it to Carrie. He tried to act casual, but his ears were unmistakably red. "On my way here, I saw a stall selling candied apples and bought some because I was hungry. I haven't touched it yet. Take it."

Bella narrowed her eyes knowingly.

Her seventh brother was a top-tier foodie. If he was hungry, how could the candied apples have lasted the journey? He would have devoured it immediately, leaving nothing but the wrapper.

Ralph obviously bought it for Carrie but was embarrassed to take it out until now.

"Candied apples?" Carrie's dim eyes glimmered with a new light.

Nobody would believe that, as the daughter of a wealthy household, Carrie had never tried this common street candy.

Due to her illness, she was confined at home by Gregory and Shannon since she was a child, and a driver would send her to school. She rarely had a chance to hang out with friends like an ordinary girl. Besides, Gregory always looked down on such "commoner" food, so she had only seen candied apples and never tried them.

Ralph unwrapped the package and handed a stick of candied apple to Carrie. "Do you want to try it?"

Carrie was shy at first, but the attraction of candied apples was too strong. She could not resist sticking out her tongue like a kitten, licking the bright red fruit. "Mmm... It's sweet!"

Ralph was amused. A genuine smile spread across his face, and the girl's innocent expression melted his heart.

'Then I'll buy it for you frequently, okay?' Ralph thought to himself. These words were a confession that lingered in Ralph's mind.

At night, the couple bathed together. Bella sat in front of a mirror, wrapped only in a towel, as Justin blew out her thick, dark hair.

Her hair was thick and took a long time to dry, but he always had enough patience to blow her hair slowly, and then carefully comb through it.

After finishing, the man held her round shoulders, biting and kissing down gently, leaving a trail of marks that belonged to him.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Bella's face flushed, and she could not help lifting her chin to seek for his lips.

When their lips touched, filled with desire, it quickly spiraled into an unstoppable indulgence in pleasure.

After their intimacy, Justin carried

Bella into the bathroom again, holding her narrow waist as he put her on the sink counter and cleaned her with the showerhead.

"Justin." She called out softly.

"Yeah?" Justin washed her body while leaning in to ask for a kiss.

"Do you think... Ryan suits Carrie more, or Ralph?"

Bella traced his lips with her fingertips. "I want an unbiased opinion."

Justin's gaze darkened. "Bella, do you want to push Carrie to be with Ralph?"

"Not really." Bella shook her head. "I merely want Carrie to be happy."

"Ryan is passionate like fire, while Ralph is gentle like a spring breeze. In terms of appearance, ability, and family background, they are well-matched. Carrie would be in good hands with either of them."

Justin's hands grabbed her waist and crept up inch by inch, finally landing a kiss between the charming fair skin. "But I think my sister deserves to be carefree and in love.

What's most important is who she likes."

Bella pursed her rosy lips and nodded slightly.

Indeed. No matter how good a man was, it was not as important as Carrie's feelings.

But Bella still had a lingering fear, afraid that the Hoffmans would target that poor girl again.

They returned to their room and were about to rest when Justin's phone vibrated.

"Who is it?" Bella yawned.

Justin's pupils contracted. "It's Ryan!"
