Chapter 538
Just as Be stepped into the hospital room, Steven received a call from Den.
Steven answered, “Mr. Den.”
“Steven! As Be’s secretary, why didn’t you report Be’s whereabouts to us immediately?”
Den bombarded him with questions. “Why are you and Be now at the Deux Hospital? Is she
looking for Justin?”
On the other end, Asher’s steady voice followed, “Dec, calm down.”
In reality, Den had a gentle personality. However, when it came to Be’s matters, he instantly
became aggressive.
Steven was greatly surprised and blinked. “Mr. Den, how know?”
After all, Be kept her visit to see Justin confidential!
“Satellite tracking.” Asher sighed helplessly. “Den is about to employ tactics for capturing wanted
criminals. How hard is it for hir to find Be?”
Steven was rendered speechless.
“Den, don’t worry. Knowing Be’s personality, she won’te back even if you scold her and hit
her.” Asher said in aid-back manner, “We’re all adults. Let her go.”
“I will dispatch a team of security guards to surround the hospital and keep an eye on the situation
outside the room. Steven, I need you to watch closely tonight. If Justin does anything to Be, you must
inform me immediately,” Den instructed.
“Yes, Mr. Den!” Steven felt the pressure emanating from the young colonel. He was almost ready to
stand at attention.
Den dered a chilling warning, intense anger evident in his voice.”
If Justin dares to harm my little sister, even a little bit, I’ll make sure he never walks out of that hospital
alive!”
Justin happily applied the ointment and took his medicine since Be was willing to apany him.
Although the hospital dinner was nd andcked variety, Justin felt like he was enjoying a feast
because Be was by his side. He thought this simple meal was the most delicious thing he had eaten
in years.
Seeing him devour the food like he hadn’t eaten in days, Be found it somewhat amusing.
She decided to order a portion as ate-night snack for herself.
The result was a rather unappetizing meal. But she stuck to her principle of not wasting food and
finished it.
“You should eat more nutritious foods to rejuvenate your body.
Perhaps something soupy andforting,” Be casually suggested.
“Great, can you make them for me?” Justin looked at her with anticipation.
“I used to make them for you all the time, but you never appreciated them,” Be sneered, pushing the
meal box aside.
She picked up her pajamas and toiletries and headed toward the bathroom. “Wilma is good at cooking.
Have her make something for you.”
With a m, the bathroom door closed.
Justin felt a lump in his throat upon hearing those words. Bitterness lingered in his heart. It seemed that
starting from scratch again and trying to reim what was lost was indeed an arduous journey.
Be emerged from the bathroom wearing a peach-colored silk pajama set.
Even without makeup, her skin was still as translucent and tender as a peeled lychee.
She had a youthful innocence that made her look more like 18 than her actual age of 24.
Justin’s thin lips pursed slightly. His usually steady heartbeat surged in response to her presence.
“What are you looking at? Never seen me without makeup?” Be sprayed her face with a mist, feeling
the dryness in the room.
“I have, frequently in the past,” Justin replied calmly, trying to suppress the turmoil in his heart. “It’s just
that I got emotional just now.”
“You got emotional just by looking at me? Well, I only saw the lust in your eyes.” Be spoke
sarcastically as she walked over to the sofa and took a seat,

Justin was momentarily speechless
This woman had already reached the pinnacle of cursing without using any vulgarnguage. If she
were to scold him, it would be the epitome of eloquence.
“Those who trespass my territory shall be killed without mercy.” Bey horizontally on the sofa. She
wore a silk eye mask and covered herself with a nket. She quickly adjusted herself into a
“Come and sleep in the bed,” Justin gently suggested.
“Justin, we’re divorced. Do you still fantasize about sharing a bed with your ex-wife? Are you asking for
death?” Be asked coldly.
“No, you’ve misunderstood.” Justin couldn’t help but smile bitterly. ” I’ll give you the bed.”
“Say one more word, and I’ll leave immediately. Since you’ve taken your medicine, there’s nothing that
can hold me here.” Be dismissed him,pletely in control.
This time, Justin didn’t dare to say anything more.
Finally convincing her to stay the night, he couldn’t afford to ruin this tranquil moment.
The lights were switched off, and the room fell into peaceful silence.
Justin was not sleepy at all. Hey on his side and stole nces at Be without blinking.
Under the soft moonlight, Be looked like a perfectly proportioned sculpture lying on her side. Even
with her back turned towards him, she looked beautiful.
“Still looking? If you keep looking, I’ll leave,” Be suddenly said, as if she had eyes on her back.
“Sorry for disturbing your rest.” Justin’s heart trembled.
Now, he was truly cautious, humble, and timid.
“No, it’s just that when you’re asleep, your breathing isn’t like this. I can instantly tell whether you’re
asleep or not,” Be said.
As soon as the words were spoken, both of them were stunned.
Be suddenly felt a faint, indescribable pain in her heart. She curled up her slender body, clutching the
edge of her clothes tightly.
She was a little angry with herself. ‘How deeply in love was I that even the slightest details of that man
became familiar to my heart?’
Justin’s eyes widened in astonishment, a profound sense of guilt rising within him.
The pitch-ck room seemed to make the air thin, making it hard for him to breathe.
For the past three years, every night, he slept soundly. But what about Be? How did she endure
those lonely and deste nights?
“Be, I was too much of a jerk in the past.” After a while, he expressed remorse again, his voice deep
and hoarse.
“Let it go. It’s all in the past. I just hope that none of us repeats the same mistakes.”
“Be, I’m serious.”
Be closed her eyes, gently interrupting him with a smile. “If you liked me, you would have liked me a
long time ago. Why wait until now? Even if you like me now, it’s just a change in your taste. I’m not a
fool. How could I take your momentary whims as solemn vows?”
