Chapter 2226

In a mysterious mountaintop villa in Sentania, it was lush with greenery and scenic views.

The bedroom was dimly lit, and a calming fragrance emitted from an antique burner, the white smoke swirling, settling all restlessness, agitation, and noise into silence.

Bella lay peacefully on the soft, large bed, deep asleep.

A tall and refined figure sat in a wheelchair, silhouetted against the light, quietly facing Bella's direction.

Clarice's eyelid twitched. She tried to suppress her emotions but could not hide the slight bitterness in her tone. "You really care about Ms. Bella."

Grant's thin lips curled into a faint smile. "Are you jealous?"
