Justin was worried about his grandfather’s health and dared not retort.

“Grandpa, please don’t get mad. I didn’t want to continue this marriage, and Justin went along with it.” Bella comforted Nigel in a soft voice and gently patted the old man’s back.

Justin frowned as he felt a surge of mixed emotions.

He did not recall having any good memories with Anna. They did not even have a wedding when they got married.
