Chapter 710
“I implore that you entrust Carrie to me Despite my past, I will work to become a good man and the only
man for Carrie. I will treat her right, even better than Justin toward Ms. Thompson, and I swear on my
life to make her the happiest woman. I love Carrie. I hope you will give me your blessing to date Carrie
with the intention of marrying her.” Nervous, Ryan gripped Carrie a little too tightly, and his voice
trembled.
Bella looked askance at Ryan. Her expectations for Ryan were low since Justin served as the
benchmark for relationships.
Justin stared at Ryan peevishly, doubting the latter could do better than him.
Ryan’s expression hardened, and his prepared speech tumbled out in a rush. Yet, his eyes held an
undeniable sincerity.
The words must have been weighing on him for a long time.
Nigel let out a wry smile. Ryan reminded him too much of Justin.

things clear-”
“I know what you’re about to say.”
Ryan could not look any more serious. “Say no more. I get it. I know everything about Carrie. She’s the

Bella curled her lips as Carrie relied on Ryan.
It was a much-needed assurance for Bella.
If Ryan were the man destined for Carrie, she would still pick him even when the world stood against
her.
The situation was just like back when Bella put everything on the line and chose Justin.
Ryan’s out-of-the-blue confession was a heavy blow-to Gregory.

Carrie paced toward the bed, her eyes reflecting worry. “Ryan said you injured your head. How do you

took great care of me.”

eagerly, “Can you stay with Justin, Bella? Can you take care of him.
until his release from the hospital? He’ll be happy and get better soon if you stay by his side.”
As her heart skipped a beat, Bella pressed her lips together.
Justin gazed at her with anticipation. He looked like a lonely, stray puppy with tears in his eyes.
The siblings knew exactly how to manipulate her emotions.
“I won’t shy away from my responsibility because your brother was
injured because of me.”
Bella curled her lips. “I will nurse him back to health.”
“Yay!” Carrie clapped her hands excitedly.
