Chapter 2409

Bella said, “Ash, don’t be so pessimistic.”

Perhaps it was because she had just seen Justin and experienced yet another heart-pounding moment, Bella was feeling particularly emotional.

Her reddened eyes shimmering with unshed tears. “Loving someone doesn’t always mean possessing them to find happiness. As long as they’re living well somewhere in the world- free, safe, and without hardship-that should be enough, shouldn’t it?”

Securing the A5 project would silence these critics. Once the project was his, no one in the Salvador Corporation would question his position-not even Nigel.
