Chapter 539
Justin felt as if his heart was filled with sharp shards.
He clenched his own shirt, thinking to himself, ‘No, of course not, Be. I’m not someone who acts on a
whim. My feelings for you are not a passing fancy. Is dyed affection not considered love?
Thirteen years ago, we faced life and death together. Thirteen yearster, we continue to face
hardships side by side. We are destined to be inextricably bound in this lifetime.’
For the first time in his life, Justin experienced the difficulty of holding back words of love.
Justin felt the frustration of having so much to say but being unable to speak. But in the end, he chose
silence.
He knew that now was not the time to speak. What he needed was act.
Although Be had recovered from her fever, her body was not fu recovered.
Be was exhausted after thest three days of turmoil. She could no longer be bothered guarding
against the ‘wolf’ any longer.
She fell asleep shortly after her head touched the pillow.
But Justin kept his eyes open, staring straight at her as if he were guarding her without any signs of
drowsiness.
Only when he was sure that Be had genuinely fallen asleep did he endure the pain and climb out of
bed. He tiptoed over to the sofa.
Originally, he had nned to admire Be’s tranquil and lovely sleeping face. But he felt sorry for letting
her sleep on the sofa.
Thus, he gently lifted her delicate and soft body.
He lowered his long eyshes as he cradled her in his arms. His palms were slightly sweaty.
He also could not resist brushing his sharp jawline against her soft hair.
“Mm…” Be let out a soft whimper in his embrace.
She resembled a sleeping baby having a dream.
Justin’s eyes deepened, and his throat felt both dry and itchy.
He had a strong desire to kiss her, and his lips hovered just above hers. In the end, he couldn’t bear to
do it.
He used to think that he had married a demure little flower. Now, realized that she was a charming
enchantress who captured his hea and soul.
Be woke up from her sleep the next morning andzily stretched her waist under the quilt.
She slept unexpectedlyfortablyst night.
Wait a minute.
Be sprang up and looked around. Only then did she discover that she was actually sleeping on the
bed!
‘What’s going on? Did I sleepwalk?’
Be quickly uncovered the nket, finding herself still dressed.
Considering that the bed was a narrow single bed and Justin’s robust figure, it should be impossible for
her to squeeze in…
There was no way she would not have felt it if he did.
At this moment, Justin was nowhere to be seen in the ward.
Be pounded the bed with her fists, cursing under her breath.
With such severe injuries, he still dared to wander around. It was like he was looking to shorten his own
life!
Just then, a knock came from outside, along with Steven’s voice. “Ms. Be? Have you woken up?”
“Come in.” Be, afraid that Steven might misunderstand, jumped off the bed and walked to the sofa.

his hands. “Mr. Asher and Mr.
Den are on their way from Hatchbay to Savrow. They’reing to pick you up together. After
picking you up, they n to have lunch, and then Mr. Den will return to Dawnford.”
Be rubbed her slightly sore temples and sighed.
She had indeed alerted her brothers after all. She diverted her attention to the food boxes and asked,
“What do you have there?”
“It’s from Justin. He had his secretary prepare breakfast for you.”
