"Damn, right after we sent Justin away, here comes the snake, Christopher! What curse has befallen our little sister to deserve this? Was she a traitor in her previous life?!" Axel and Asher were on the second floor, looking down. Axel was fuming, while Asher gave Christopher a cold stare, his hand gripping the railing tightly with veins popping out.
"The dinner was such a significant event, but the most favored young master of the Iverson family chose not to attend. His eagerness to show up when Bella got into trouble is suspicious.” Axel continued, “Hmph! Based on my extensive experience as a prosecutor, I'm convinced that what happened tonight is undoubtedly connected to Christopher! Maybe he's colluding with Zoe and using that wicked girl to his advantage!" "I think so too. But Christopher is cunning and skilled at manipulating others to do his dirty work." Asher's cold, piercing gaze remained fixed on Christopher's face. "He's already made sure to cover his tracks before putting his plan into action. I'm afraid he has already gotten rid of the evidence. Otherwise, he wouldn't have shown up here so confidently tonight. He probably thinks he has nothing to worry about." "Damn it! It's like a wolf walking into a chicken coop on New Year's!" Axel exclaimed in frustration. "As brothers, we have three heads and six arms combined. Are we just going to stare at this demon without taking any action?" At this moment, Wyatt arrived with Celeste and Quentin to see Christopher.
"Uncle Wyatt, Madam Celeste." Christopher quickly stood up and bowed. His gentle and polite appearance was exactly what the elders liked. "Mr. Iverson, my daughter is not feeling well and cannot entertain any guests." Celeste noticed the disapproving expression on Wyatt's face and decided to step in. "I'm sure you're aware of the unpleasant incident at the banquet tonight. We're not in the mood to entertain any guests. Please leave." Celeste's sudden order to leave made Christopher visibly upset. His eyes darkened, and he clenched his fists unwillingly. But he maintained his composure and said, "I heard that Bella is not doing well and was having trouble sleeping and eating, so I rushed here overnight to see her." He explained patiently, “Uncle Wyatt, please don't worry. When I was in Sentania, I knew several renowned doctors in the industry. If the local doctors can't do anything, I can invite them to Hatchbay for a consultation with Bella." "Christopher," Wyatt suddenly said with a stern tone. "We appreciate your kindness. But for now, you are Amelia's fange. Even though you and Bella grew up together and have a close relationship, you should now pay more attention to Amelia. It's tto avoid raising any suspicions between you and Bella." Christopher was taken aback, his face turning pale.

His plans have completely backfired. It just shows that being too clever can sometimes backfire!" "Uncle Wyatt, the person I want to marry has always been Bella! I've never intended to marry any other woman!" Christopher declared passionately. Celeste was surprised, and she pressed her lips together awkwardly.
What are you saying?" Wyatt asked sternly, his brows furrowing deeply. Mr. Iverson, every daughter of mine sprecious every tome, not someone for 'ou to just pick and choose. You're engaged to Amelia, and that's final. Don't bring up anything about you and Bella again!" ¡wUncle Wyatt, you know how much I ove Bella," Christopher said earnestly, despite his reputation for >eing sly. His feelings for Bellatwere jenuine evident from the desire in is eyes at that moment. "I never ad a say in choosing my partner! And you know very well that the eason I agreed to step back is because I thought Bella had found er happiness. But do you still think hat Justin is a suitable match for Bella?!" ¡wWyatt's breath caught in his throat. He was overwhelmed with emotion as he realized that his daughter could never beca mother.
"In the past, I failed to protect Bella by her side and made her suffer a lot. From now on, I will only protect her. I will never betray her like Justin did, nor will I ever hurt her." With tears welling up in his reddened eyes, Christopher pleaded hoarsely, "Uncle Wyatt, please letmarry Bella. I will never let her suffer again!" "Hmph! You might as well go and dream! You can get whatever you want in your dreams!" Seeing Asher and Axel walking down the stairs side by side, Christopher clenched his teeth as his eyes glinted with hidden malice.
"Dad! Don't let his appearance deceive you. He's not a good person!"
