Aurora Dourada: Retorno By Ricardo Almeida

Chapter 929

Bella stopped teasing Ralph and put on a serious expression. “Ralph,

is the phone repaired?”

“It’s quite challenging to repair it, but our colleagues in the technical department are all professionals.”

Ralph turned to look at Justin. “Mr. Salvador, we’ll need you to stay

behind for a statement later.”

“Sure. I came to cooperate with the police.”

Justin’s calm eyes glinted, and his gaze fell on Bella’s face, unable to

look away.

Bella felt his intense gaze. She pursed her lips, intentionally ignoring

his heated stare.

The three walked into the police station. Although it was already

nighttime, the presence of Bella and Justin walking in together still

attracted astonished looks from the officers.

What a perfect pair! Such a match was rare, and it would be a crime

for them not to get married.

In the interrogation room, Ralph handed Linny’s repaired phone to

them.

Bella’s eyelashes fluttered as she slowly took the phone, which had a

shattered screen.

The screen lit up and showed a photo of Linny with her grandmother

back in her hometown. She carried a cute little dog in her arms and

smiled cheerfully.

Instantly, Bella felt her head buzz. Pain spread from her heart to her whole body, so excruciating that she trembled and covered her ears.

Her eyes shut tightly, but she could not stop the tears from falling.

“Bella! Are you alright? Do you want to rest first?”

Ralph knew that Bella had not yet emerged from the psychological trauma. When she saw the lock screen, she must have recalled what happened that night. It was quite a blow.

He quickly stood up and walked around the table, intending to

comfort Bella.

At this moment, he saw Justin suddenly turn around and embrace Bella. Justin gently placed his large hands on the back of her neck and carefully guided her forehead to rest on his broad shoulder.

“Breathe in. Listen to me and take a deep breath…”

He spoke softly into her ear, guiding her with a soothing voice wh

patting her shivering back with his warm palms.

Bella closed her eyes tightly and clenched her fists. She leaned

against Justin’s chest and sobbed, which was heartbreaking to

witness.

Ralph observed their interaction without intervening, only letting out a

soft sigh.

He had to say that if Justin was not around, he would not know how

to calm Bella down..

Their fate was truly an entangled mess.

However, if Justin’s method could make his sister feel better, he would take it and give that rascal a chance. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

After a while, Bella gradually steadied her emotions. Seeing that she

was leaning against Justin, she panicked and hurriedly pushed him

away.

Justin was startled, and he blinked.

“Thank you.” Bella did not dare to look at him. She murmured in a

muffled voice.

“You’re welcome,” Justin replied softly.

Bella noticed that a patch on Justin’s suit had become wet from her

tears and felt a pang of guilt. She quickly wiped his suit with her

hands.

Justin was amused and exasperated.

“Um… Give me your suit jacket before you leave later. I’ll find

someone to dry clean it and send it to you.”

“Why should you wash it?” Justin’s smile was like a warm ray of sunlight, shining into her heart. “You don’t need to. I like this.”
