Charles' case was closed successfully.
Although Bella and Justin descended from wealth and were very competent, life was not a feel-good book. Since they were up against a giant like the Iverson Group, it took a lot of tand effort to get rid of Astrid and Charles.
Nevertheless, they achieved what they set out to do. All their work was worth it.

"Oh, Young Master, Young Madam, you givetoff work every now and then. I feel bad because you still payanyway. I feel like I don't deserve the wages." Wilma stood at the kitchen door and watched Justin slicing and dicing away. Filled with glee, Wilma grinned. “Excellent knife work, Young Master. No one would be able to tell that you could barely take care of yourself before. Look at you now!" "Bella taughtwell." Justin kept chopping vegetables while winking at Bella, who was behind the stove.
"Hey, Chef Justin. How many times do I have to tell you to focus when cutting vegetables?" Bella kept her eyes on the pot from stewing over. "Do you want to slice all ten fingers?" Justin pursed his lips and glanced away from Bella's profile to chop vegetables with his undivided attention.
Wilma put her hand over her mouth to laugh.
Only Bella could housetrain Justin.
"We wanted to keep you for dinner, Wilma, but you said you're going out to dinner with your best friend. Since you are getting together with your friend, we don't want to keep you." Bella looked back and smiled at Wilma. "Have fun.” "I will, Young Madam." Wilma happily went out.
"Huh? Why haven't I seen lan around today?" Bella dished the plate and asked frustratedly, "Didn't we talk about having dinner together to celebrate?" "Today isn't the only day he's missing in action. He hasn't been around for the past three to four nights." Justin carried the dish to the dinner table, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Ever since Ms. Mead stood up for you, outside the police station, lan has been talking about the, incident at least three times a day. I am grateful for Ms. Mead's help, but l'bget a migraine if I have to listen to it one more time." "Oh, I see." Bella smiled knowingly without giving anything away.
"I'll call him to cback now." Justin was about to grab the phone when Bella pressed his hand down. "Oh, there's no need for that. I know where lan went. Just let him be." He was too straight to take a hint. "Where did he go?" "Hehe... You don't know him at all, dummy." Bella fed a spoonful of love to Justin. "Love is in the air for lan." After sundown, lan, all suited up, stood outside the Meads' old neighborhood. Holding flowers on his left and a gift on his right he looked at the small but lit window. Hesitant, lan looked at the beautiful purple hyacinth in his hand and sighed.

Today was Rachel's birthday, and Charles was finally jailed. Rachel could not wish for a better gift than seeking justice for herself.
Just as the mother and daughter were about to cut into the cake, there was a knock on the door.
Rachel got up to open the door. The old lady from next door, Lexi, stood there.
"Lexi? You're out of the hospital? How do you feel? Do you feel better?" Rachel asked concernedly with a smile.
"I chere to tell you something, Rachel." Lexi looked worried and stern.
"When I chome, I saw a suspicious man in a suit downstairs. He was sneaking around. I don't feel comfortable when I see anyone in a suit around here."
