NovelOnlineBella's face suddenly darkened. “Mr. Grant, whether | can or want to have children is my private matter. Your concern is
unnecessary.”
“As Justin's elder brother, | know him well. | know he loves kids. His care for Carrie when we were younger showed his fatherly
nature. Even if he doesn’t say it, | know he would love to have a child with you.”
Bella's breath hitched, and a wave of pain swept through her heart.
“Perhaps I'm overstepping the boundaries, but everything | do is for your happiness.” Grant spoke softly and earnestly. “If you
follow through with the treatment and your condition gets better, Justin will be happy, and you won't have any regrets, too. Isn't
that right? I'll have everything arranged once | return. You cane for the treatment anytime.”
With that, he turned to leave.
“l won't go.” Bella's voice was cold and determined. “Being with Justin is more than enough for me. Besides, not every woman in
this world wants to be a mother. For instance, | don’t. I'm still a child at heart, and now I'm the heir to KS Group, busy dealing with
countless issues daily. | don’t have tto raise a child. From now on, you don’t need to worry about such matters.”
Grant's lips curled slightly as he left the balcony in his wheelchair.

If she could, she would certainly want to have a child with the man she loved most.
If someone else had offered help, she might have considered it. But the person who offered to help was none other than Grant.
The last tshe had even the slightest interaction with him, Justin felt extremely anxious about it.
Accepting Grant's help would only cause more pain for Justin...
Bella stood with her arms crossed, gazing at the bleak scenery in the distance, lost in thought.
Suddenly, she felt a warm embrace from behind and turned around in surprise.
“Justin?”
Justin wrapped his suit around her, pulling her deeply into his arms from behind.
His sharp jaw rested against her neck. Their faces pressed together as they bathed in the golden light of the setting sun. It was a
scene of intense, beautiful affection.
“Bella...” Justin's voice was hushed and full of sorrow.
“What's wrong?” Bella placed her hands over his, which was resting gently on her slender waist.
“I don’t want a child, Bella... | really don’t.”
Bella's eyes widened, her heart pounding. “You heard everything earlier...”
“] know. You've said that many times.” Her tone was light and reassuring.
“But if one day you do want a child, you have to tell me. I'm willing to try any method for you, even if it means asking my big
brother for help...”
“| thought the same, too.” Bella smiled softly, understandingly. “If you ever want a child, don’t hide it from me. No matter what it
takes, I'll be willing to try.”

As tpassed, besides managing the current situation with the Hoffman Group, Ryan moved into the hospital. He dedicated

“Dr. Larson.”
“Hehe, you're getting quite skilled at caring for her. Your movements are more nimble than the caregivers now.” Arnold's eyes
narrowed into a smile of satisfaction.
“There's still a long way to go. | need to learn a lot more. I'mmitted to caring for her for the rest of my life,” Ryan replied with
a slightly naive smile, genuinely content.
Arnold pressed his lips together. “I'm sorry. Despite all this time, | still haven't managed to get Carrie to speak.”

“Although it’s hard to talk about this, | must tell you that you should prepare for the possibility that Carrie may never be able to
speak again.”
As a doctor, Arnold could not hide his guilt. “However, there is still a chance she might recover in the future, though | can’t say
when that might be.”
“It’s okay. | know you've done your best, Dr. Larson. No matter what happens to her, I'll stay by her side.”
“Chairman Hoffman!” Dean hurried over from the other end of the hallway. "There's something you need to know."
Seeing that they needed to speak privately, Arnold took his leave.
