Chapter 159

Bella said, “No, think of another condition.”

“But you just promised me!” Ryan raised his eyebrows and looked anxious.

“I really can’t go with you.”

Bella looked at him sternly. “I promised Grandpa Nigel that I would spend his birthday with him as his granddaughter-in-law. After his birthday, I won’t have anything to do with the Salvador family anymore. If I attend his birthday party with another man, I’m afraid Grandpa Nigel will feel uncomfortable. I just want Grandpa Nigel to be happy on his 80th birthday. After all, I won’t be spending much time with him anymore.”

As she spoke, a trace of sadness flashed across her beautiful eyes.

“Anna, you’re such a good person. I think that Justin is too blind to have missed out on you.” Ryan sighed.

But then Ryan thought, ‘If my best friend wasn’t so blind, how could I get the chance to find this hidden treasure? Oh, Justin… Your loss is my gain! Your blindness is the reason I’ll be happy for the rest of my life!’

“That’s it? You know, it’s rare for me to owe favors.”

“I’m just happy that you let me stay for dinner.” Ryan looked at her adoringly, seizing every opportunity to convey his love for her.
