Unable to be stopped by Ryan, Justin brought the still-unconscious Carrie back to Crescent Bay. This controversial incident sparked a major commotion in the city.
Nigel’s initial reaction was not because he was embarrassed by Carrie. He merely wanted to comfort his granddaughter and shield her from the prying eyes and harsh judgments of the world.
Having suffered a great shock, Carrie was injected with a sedative once again. Her serene and beautiful sleeping face brought tears to Nigel’s eyes.
“Oh, Carrie... This is all my fault. I was useless and couldn’t protect you,” Nigel said, a lump forming in his throat as his shaky hand tenderly caressed the girl’s soft, delicate face.
“Grandpa Nigel, don’t worry.” Bella’s eyes were also red and teary. “Carrie has your love. Justin and I will pamper her too. We’ll get to the bottom of this issue.”
Bella clenched her fingers tightly, her knuckles cracking. She said in a firm tone, “I will definitely make everyone who was involved in hurting Carrie pay a heavy price!”
Bella was always true to her word. She always followed through on what she said.
“It was someone from the Hoffman family who did it,” Bella said.
Despite Nigel’s advanced age and frail physique, his mind remained sharp. He clenched his teeth tightly as he spoke.
“Even if they did not want Carrie to join the Hoffman family, they still shouldn’t have treated her this way! The Hoffman family has no right to bully my granddaughter! Bella, you don’t need to handle this. I’ll take care of it myself!”
Bella’s heart was heavy with concern. She was worried for Carrie’s well-being and feared that Grandpa Nigel’s outrage might jeopardize his own health.
Matt knocked on the door and rushed in, his expression anxious. “Old Master, your phone is ringing.”
“I’m with my granddaughter. I won’t be taking any calls!”
“It’s... Chairman Hoffman.”
Nigel’s eyes were bloodshot as he snatched the phone and pressed it to his ear. “Given the circumstances, what more do you have to say?”
Logan’s tone was unexpectedly calm. “Chairman Salvador, it is truly heartbreaking that such a thing has happened. The person who exposed the video is despicable beyond words!”
Having finally caught his breath, Logal dropped his pretense and completely tore into Nigel.
“Hah... I reached out to you out of goodwill because of the relationship between my grandson and your granddaughter. But you treated my kindness like dirt, bombarding me with insults! Since you look down on my grandson and your granddaughter is so ill, delirious, and out of her mind, she’s not fit to be our Hoffman family’s young mistress. This marriage is off! Instead of arguing with me, you should take your granddaughter to see a doctor!”
“You...!”
Logan quickly hung up the phone.
In his fury, Nigel’s face turned red. Matt hurriedly brought over some water, while Bella immediately stepped forward to massage her grandfather’s head, trying to soothe his headache.
“Grandpa Nigel, Logan called just to break off the engagement. He was just trying to get a reaction out of you. Don’t be angry. Let him have his moment of satisfaction. Sooner or later, their whole family will be crying.”
Bella’s beautiful eyes were filled with icy determination.
