The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson) novel Chapter 1341

That evening, Bella and Justin were set to return to their own place.

As they were about to leave, Carrie threw herself into her sister-in-law’s arms, sobbing uncontrollably, crumpling Bella’s black dress, and soaking the front of it with her tears.

One might have thought they would never see each other again.

Bella took her time to console Carrie, promising frequent visits and earnestly advising Ryan to not always bury himself in minor troubles at the Hoffman Group. She told him to find time to take Carrie out more, so she would not feel like a caged canary, deprived of the joy of freedom.

Ryan swore vehemently and embraced his tearful, petite girlfriend, standing at the door to see them off.

As their car pulled away, Bella could not hold back any longer. Her shoulders shook as tears, clear and sparkling like fallen stars, trailed down her cheeks.

“Don’t cry, Bella.”

Justin’s breath quickened out of concern as he enveloped her quivering shoulders with his strong arm, drawing her close to soothe her and gently rubbing his chin against her head.

“It’s not like you’re never going to see her again. If you miss Carrie, we can invite her to stay with us for a while. Or I could buy a larger villa. If you’d like, she could live with us permanently. Yasmin will become the CEO’s secretary, so she’ll be very busy. Having Wilma take care of Carrie is most suitable.”

“Hmph… Can you even call yourself Ryan’s best friend for coming up with such a terrible idea for him?”

Bella sniffed her red nose, gently poking Justin’s chest. “The newlyweds haven’t had many comfortable days with each other yet, and you want to separate them just to make me happy? Justin, you’re so heartless… Even if Carrie doesn’t say anything about it, do you think Ryan won’t be cursing you from under his blankets every day?”

Caught off guard, Justin froze momentarily, then pressed his lips gently against her supple lips.

After an exchange of tender kisses, he smiled wryly. “I didn’t consider all that. Seeing how Carrie also didn’t want you to leave, I thought I was helping you girls.”

“You’re the one who told me not to disturb the couple.”
