A man who has reached the pinnacle of his life cannot tolerate falling back into the depths, especially a man like him-so much pride and self-respect." "Justin nearly gave half his life to build Salvador Corporation... I was his wife for three years, and no one understands better than I do what he went through to get here."

"Please don't say that, Arnold. You've already done so much for Justin. It's enough." Bella's eyes stung as she blinked back tears. "By the way, Aunt Mila and I visited Uncle Alvin the other day.

Apart from his strong opposition to my relationship with Asher, I've never really hated him, not even for a moment, from childhood until now," Arnold said as he took a deep breath, as if forcing himself to hold back semotion, and laughed with a sense of relief.
"Though now that I think about it, I really should've listened to my father. If I hadn't gotten involved with Asher back then, I think I would've lived a much happier life than I do now."

"Grandpa Nigel, are you heading out?" "Yes, I'm going to visit an old friend." "The weather outside is terrible, Grandpa Nigel. Letdrive you," Bella offered immediately.
