Christopher's expression stiffened.
Wyatt did not mention Christopher's name, but Christopher felt as if Wyatt was targeting him with each word. The anger boiling from within his heart scorched Christopher's pale face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Uncle Wyatt, everything Justin does now is just to get on Bella's good side and deceive her." Christopher clenched his fists tightly, his fingers almost digging into his flesh. He bore an unrelenting murderous intent toward Justin. "If he really loved Bella, how could he not fall for her during those three years of marriage, when they were living together? Any normal man would be moved by such a beautiful and outstanding woman! But he still heartlessly abandoned Bella back then. It shows that his love for Bella isn't genuine!" "Not genuine?" Wyatt raised an eyebrow.
"Have you ever thought about when Justin started to have feelings for Bella? Wasn't it until after they were divorced that he got to know that the wife he had looked down upon for three years was actually the KS Group's heiress? Everyone knew that Justin was not the son of Chairman Salvador's first wife, and the way his mother rose to power was not honorable.
"If Chairman Salvador's eldest son was not in poor health, how could he let Justin bear the heavy responsibility of heading the Salvador Corporation? Now that he's pestering Bella, do you think his aim is pure and genuine? He must have an ulterior motive to use the Thompson family's power to change his awkward position." Christopher's gaze was anxious, and his words were heartfelt. He was talking until his mouth felt dry. "He forced Bella to divorce him so that he could marry someone else. He's despicable for doing that. Aren't you afraid of him being unfaithful a second or third time? Are you really going to gamble on Justin's character and risk your daughter's future?!" Quentin listened on the side, frowning slightly. He observed Christopher discreetly.
He had not noticed before, but Quentin realized now that Christopher had a silver tongue that could twist words to his advantage.
It would be destructive if Christopher used his eloquence to distort right and wrong.
"Mr. Iverson, you seem to know more about my daughter than I do as her father." Wyatt's eyes still carried a smile, but his tone was cold. "If Justin was, as you said, a shallow opportunist who only values power, he shouldn't have accepted my daughter, who had disguised herself as a nobody since the beginning. Won't it be easier to just marry a wealthy lady?" Christopher suddenly fell silent, obviously not knowing what to say.

I can't possibly shrink her and carry her in my pocket wherever I go, can I?" Wyatt's dark humor made Quentin struggle to hold back his chuckle.
However, Christopher's resentment grew in his heart, and his pale and dry lips trembled. "Uncle Wyatt..." "If you still refuse to give up on Bella, you can pursue my daughter with passion and compete with Justin fairly." Wyatt casually retracted his gaze from Christopher's stiff face, curling his lips coldly. "But don't look forin the future about this matter again. I have many children, and if I had to worry about each of them like this, I wouldn't be getting any rest!" After that, Wyatt and Quentin stepped into Yara Park's entrance.
The door swung shut, bringing with it a gust of chilling breeze that hit Christopher in the face.
After settling things with Christopher, Wyatt inexplicably felt that even his steps had beclighter.
"Yeah. Sometimes, it's hard to see what people are good at until they show their true colors." Quentin smiled, his praise carrying subtle mockery.
"Tsk! I've attended business conferences with Justin multiple times. He could switch languages fluently when he was on stage, talk non-stop and speak confidently. But in front of me, he would either Swear on his life, admit his mistakes, or promise to treat Bella well. He was soclumsy that I would've thought his brain wasn't fully developed had I not seen him in the business arena." Wyatt shook his head, showing a disdainful expression. Quentin smiled knowingly. "No matter how many weaknesses Justin has, he has one redeeming quality. Christopher is Ms. Bella's childhood friend and Justin's love rival But until now, do you remember hearing Justin Ove a single bad word about his rival?" Sigh. How he wanted to help Justin and Bella get together!
