Chapter 462

Chapter 462

Bella and Justin had met at Mount Jaglee National Forest Park for the first time thirteen years ago.

It was the place where Justin saved Bella’s life.

“Oh? So you’re a student of Frank? Is Frank no longer the captain?” Bella’s eyes lit up at the mention of an old friend.

“Yeah, Frank will be retiring next month. He’ll be performing his last rounds this month. Once he does the final handover, he will be returning to his hometown.”

Xavier sighed. “I saw your name in Frank’s list of contacts, so you must be important to him. He expressed his wish to have a quiet retirement, but I hope you could make time to visit him and give him good farewell. Frank has pancreatic cancer, so we don’t know if we’ll ever get to see him again.”

“What? Frank has…” Bella sat up straight, her heart aching.

“When he received his diagnosis, the pancreatic cancer was already in its advanced stage. You understand. The pancreatic cancer spreads fast.” Xavier choked with sobs.

“I see.”

Bella murmured with a heavy heart, “I’ll make time to visit Frank.”

“Please don’t let him know what I told you. He’s a proud man who doesn’t want to show vulnerability. He doesn’t want to a pity party, so

“I understand. I’ve known Frank for thirteen years. I know him well. Don’t worry about it.”

After the phone call, Bella sat vacantly on the swing. Moments later, her eyes welled up.

“Ms. Bella, who is Frank? Uh… What’s wrong?”

Steven got down on one knee and pulled out a clean handkerchief to wipe her tears.

“An old friend.”

It took a lot for Bella to move her lips as her heart bled. “Help me to get in touch with any successful gastroenterologist in Savrow and Hatchbay, Steve. I want to do everything in my power to help my friend.”

“Alright. I’ll get straight to it,” Steven said in a serious tone. He respected Bella’s privacy and dropped the questions when she was not ready to talk.

Another call quickly came in.

This time, it was Bella’s adorable apprentice, Roza Walker.

“Roza…”

Bella had just pulled herself together when Roza’s loud voice threatened to burst her eardrums. “Ah! You liar! You’re Bella

Thompson, heiress of KS Group, and Alexa, the legendary jewelry designer… I can’t believe you kept it from me. Sob, sob… I want to call the cops on you. You tricked me!”

“Did you just find out? That’s slow.”

Bella sneered and grabbed the handkerchief from Steven to blow her nose. “I should play more tricks on you since I’m a trickster, according to you.”

After the utter humiliation from Justin, things did not get any better for Shannon when she approached Gregory. In fact, she broke the character of being a devoted, gentle, and loving wife.

Unable to let it go, Shannon took Bethany, who cried her eyes out, to the Hoffmans’ residence in the middle of the night.

“You can’t get anything right.”

Annoyed by Bethany’s crying, Shannon poked her head with her red- painted fingernail and drew blood. “Before, you took Rosalind’s side because the scheming bitch was going to be your sister-in-law. You thought you could handle her.”
