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.
“Ahem. I’m not suspecting you of anything. I just-”
Even though Gregory had been in the business world for over three decades, he was overwhelmed by the young man for a change. He quickly pulled himself together and looked Ryan in the eye. “As at father, I hope my daughters will find the right men and start a family. together. But I need to make a few 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 only woman for me. We have kept it real, sharing everything, including a bed-”
“What? Don’t tell y-y-you slept with my precious….” Nigel pointed at Ryan, shuddering with fear.
Ryan waved his arm in a panic. “You got the wrong idea, Grandpa Nigel! I never laid a finger on Carrie. Don’t take things the wrong way.”
Carrie did not get it at first. At that point, she blushed hard and buried her head in the man’s arms.
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.
However, now was not the time to talk about it, so Gregory put the
matter aside.
“Justin!”
Carrie paced toward the bed, her eyes reflecting worry. “Ryan said you injured your head. How do you feel? Does it hurt?”
Justin caressed his sister’s face and replied tenderly, “It doesn’t hurt. Your sister-in-law saved me. She took great care of me.”
Papter 710.
Ryan was jealous of the bond between Justin and Carrie, even thought
they were siblings.
“That’s great to hear.”
Carrie suddenly grabbed Bella’s hand and dangled it. She asked

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson)
If you are about to start reading this “ongoing” book….don’t. It’s a great read but mo regular updates and leaves you hanging. Took me months to get to chapter 2370 (this app only has it to chapter 2368….learned to search different links to read ahead a bit). These ongoing books are just not worth the time since their author (s) take days/weeks to upload new chapters. Again great sultry, long drawn out at times, but not worth the frustration of no new updates....
No update in 6 days!!! Really??? I’m about over this story and ready to move on, the wait is to long....
Pls update regularly or least let us know why it's taking so long...
Ok I was thinking last night. I really hope the author hasn’t been affected by hurricane Helene. Not sure where they are located but I hope everyone is safe...
