Chapter 513
Justin had no time to take in the shock.
He could feel the surface beneath him crumbling.
“Hurry up, Anna!”
+
In the heat of the moment, Justin blurted out the name that she used when they were married.
Bella’s heart skipped a beat.
That name stirred her up with energy, and she managed to latch onto
the edge of the cliff and throw herself into Justin’s arms.
The man locked his arms around her and held her tight.
Rumble!
As the edge of the cliff collapsed, Justin shielded Bella and tumb with her in the opposite direction of the disaster.
“Ugh!” With his back hitting a rock, Justin let out an agonized grunt.
He hurt himself badly as he broke out in a cold sweat, which blended quickly with the rainwater.
“Are you injured?” Bella looked up from his embrace and nervously
looked at his discolored face.
“No.” Justin kept his tone flat so as not to reveal the pain.in his voice.
Struck by lingering fear, Bella dropped her weight on his heaving chest.
and sighed.
“Why didn’t you tell me?” His gaze under his drenched lashes locked on her, and his voice was raspy.
“What?” As her heart raced, Bella looked away.
“Why didn’t you tell me that we met thirteen years ago? Why didn’t you tell me you were the girl I saved here?”
Justin spoke with a heavy breath as a mix of emotions ate at him.
She felt a catch in her throat, and her soiled face turned pale.
Did he call her Anna because he remembered the past?
Why did he have to remember at this moment?
Why did the realization come thirteen years too late?
It was too late. She would rather that he forget about her forever.
“Tell me, Bella. Say something!”
Hot with emotions, Justin gripped Bella’s chin and made her meet his
1998
bloodshot gaze.
“Do you remember why I called myself Anna when I married you?”
Bella gave him a gloomy look, her chest clutched.
Justin grimaced in pain at her cutthroat words.
His memories came back to him.
Justin asked for her name when-he saved her, but was met with
silence. Hence, he randomly named her “Anna”, as it was the most
common name he could think of at the moment.
However, it was the random name that brought him together with the woman thirteen years later. The girl he once saved re-emerged as his
wife.
He had no idea.
“Ha! It looks like you remember.”
Bella chuckled. “You don’t have to remember anything, though. I never expected you to remember me. I am only passing through your life, whether it’s thirteen years ago, three years ago, or now.”
Justin’s breath hitched.
He was not at fault for saving her life and forgetting her.
Yet the guilt consumed him.
The woman had longed for him for thirteen years, but he turned around and forgot about her.
She chased after him and tried to blend into his world. However, he pushed her out and shut the door to his heart right in her face.
“I’m sorry…”
Justin’s lips shivered as he choked with sobs. “I didn’t know you were that girl. If I knew-”
“If you knew, you would’ve divorced me anyway.”
Bella smiled with understanding. She had her regrets about him, but there were no lingering feelings. “I might be Bella and Anna. The difference is just a name. It doesn’t change anything between us. You don’t need to apologize. I should thank you. You left after saving my
life. I didn’t know your name or who you were. I couldn’t express my
gratitude.”
“Even so, why did you marry me, Bella?”
That was the question that had been bugging Justin. “Do you feel indebted to me because I saved you?”
“It doesn’t matter anymore, Justin. It’s all in the past. There’s no point. mulling over a marriage that didn’t end well.”
Bella closed her eyes as if closing off access to her heart. Her shoulders trembled, betraying her feelings. “Now isn’t the time to talk.
about this. I’m cold. Let’s go.”
In the rainstorm, the former couple reached a truce for a moment. As they were injured, they leaned on each other as they traveled ahead. with difficulty.
Unfortunately, Bella’s phone had died on her, while Justin could no
receive any signal on his.
“One thing’s for sure-we are at the back of Mount Jaglee. Otherwise, we would’ve gotten a phone signal.” Bella staggered out of breath.
The hunger and cold drained her of energy.
Her determination not to be a burden to Justin was the thing that kept
her going. She could not even feel her legs anymore.
“I instructed lan to send a helicopter before I came to you.” Sensing
