Chapter 159 His Only Weakness
The bodyguard nodded. "If you don't believe me, you can call to confirm.’
Bella waved her hand. She believed him. After all only the Sawyer family could pull off
something like this. She had saved Daniel's life on the operating table, and now, Leonard had
saved hers.
They brought her to a luxurious villa by the river. It wasn't Sawyer Manor, which left Bella puzzled. "Where is
this?"
The bodyguard replied, "This is Mr. Sawyer's private residence. He had something to take care of but will be back
in about half an hour. He toldto make sure you don't wander off on

and to have you wait for him here."
Feeling a bit uneasy, Bella stepped into the living room and sat down. An older woman, her hair already streaked
with white, brought over a tray of fruit and tea.
"It's the first tI've seen Mr. Sawyer bring someone home. Don't be shy, make yourself at
home."
Bella noticed the woman had misunderstood the situation. "Oh no, it's not like that... We're just friends. My
brother is one of his good buddies.
However, the woman didn't seem to take in her explanation. She simply gave Bella a knowing smile before
walking away.
Bella let out a breath, feeling awkward. Once she was alone, she took the opportunity to examine the villa. The
design was sleek and modern, with a touch of understated luxury. It was exactly what she expected from
Leonard's taste. True to the bodyguard's word, Leonard arrived exactly half an hour later.
The moment she saw him, Bella rushed over, asking, "What's going on? Who were those people?"
Leonard's expression was serious. "They were sent by the Yates family. They're trying to use you to blackmail
Dominic into not returning because you're his only weakness."
Bella understood immediately. She was the only person Dominic had left who could be
considered family, making her his greatest weakness.
She asked angrily, "What do they want by keeping Dominic away? What are they trying to achieve?"
Leonard glanced at her and replied, "They want to force him into a marriage."
Bella froze in disbelief. "They think they can force him into marriage? Do they really believe a forced marriage
will work? Are they planning to keep him imprisoned for life? Chaptér 159 His Only Wen

"Or will they let him go after the wedding? The moment he's free, do they really think he'll acknowledge that
marriage? It's ridiculous!"
Leonard explained further, "That's why they'll do whatever it takes to keep you under their control, using you to
pressure Dominic until he finally gives in. For now, it's safer for you to stay here. Don't go back to the hospital.
You'll be more secure under my watch." Hearing his words, Bella's heart sank. Using her to blackmail Dominic
indefinitely? If she were captured by the Yates family, she wouldn't be free until Dominic gave in.
Knowing his stubborn nature, she could be locked away forever. Worse, if they grew tired of waiting, they might
just decide to kill her...
Piecing it all together, Bella asked, "How long do | need to stay here? Givea rough idea so that | can let the
hospital know I'll be away for a while."
Leonard sighed. "You won't be safe until Dominic returns. Until this whole situation is resolved, | can't give you an
exact timeline. However, make yourself comfortable while you're here. You can treat this place as Miller Manor.
"I'll have someone buy whatever you need, including clothes and personal items... You don't have to worry about
a thing. The only downside is, you can't leave."
Bella nodded. "I understand. Thank you, Leonard."
