Chapter 1937
Bella looked into Justin's lust-filled eyes, her lips still glistening from their kiss.
Suddenly, she remembered Clarice's charming face and the smile Clarice reserved for Justin. This caused a wave of discomfort to wash over her.
She was not being unreasonable. As the heiress of KS Group, she did not feel the need to behave like those jealous, petty women who rely on men. But this time, she could not control it and felt a little annoyed.
Bella said, "Grant is your elder brother, and he greeted me politely. Should I have cried instead of smiling at him?" Bella turned her face away, her face flushing slightly as she avoided Justin's intense gaze. Justin's eyes darkened. He playfully tilted Bella's chin with his fingertips, gently turning her face towards him, as if teasing and compelling her to meet his gaze.
"Bella, I'm worried," Justin said, his voice low and rough.
Bella blinked, her eyes glistening.
"Your smile is just so beautiful. I'm worried my brother might get captivated by it," Justin murmured, his lips nearly brushing the corner of hers.
"I can't help it. I'm just naturally charming all the time," Bella said in a low voice. "But no matter how charming I am, I'll never compare to Ms. Amaryllis." Justin's brow furrowed. "What do you mean by that?"
Bella pouted and said, "I thought you only had eyes for me and avoided all other women. Turns out, you just hadn't met someone to your liking." The air in the safety corridor was thick with jealousy.
Even though Justin was as dense as a rock, he got it now and couldn't help but chuckle, his heart filled with joy.
"Bella, are you jealous?"
"No, I'm not! You can look at whoever you want. I don't care... Mmph!"© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Bella was once again pulled into a kiss, this time even more intense and passionate, leaving her body weak and her mind hazy.
Their bodies were pressed closely together, and she could feel his heated response. She shyly pushed against his chest but was unable to resist.
Although Justin was extremely skilled, he was not the type to lose his composure easily.
At that critical moment, he held
himself back despite his discomfort. His large hand gently cradled the back of her smooth neck as he spoke in a low, husky tone, "I was wrong. If it happens again, l'bpunish myself by turning myself blind."
"You better not let it happen again, you rascal!" Bella glared at him and punched his shoulder.
"But Bella, you've misunderstood me." Justin held her close, looking down at her face. "I paid attention to Clarice because I had a suspicion." "What do you mean?"
"The last time I went to Meridan to
visit my brother, she was the one who fetched me. She had a unique fragrance, similar to orchids.
vaguely remember that Christopher also had this scent."
Justin's voice lowered, a contemplative look in his eyes. "I pretended to want to buy you perfume just so I could ask her about that scent. She said it was a custom blend that's hard to find on the market. When I caught a whiff of it again on her today, I couldn't help but pay closer attention. m sorry for making you unhappy. It was my mistake."
Bella draped her delicate arms over his sturdy shoulders, meeting his gaze intently. "Christopher does always smell nice, but I never noticed the orchid scent you mentioned."
