The screen disyed a string of numbers instead of his name. Justin always had two numbers, one for
his personal use and the other for
work.
Be had memorized both numbers by heart. It was unusual for him
to call her from his work number.
Be’s heart raced as she answered. She slowly raised the phone to
her ear but remained silent.
“Be!” Justin’s voice sounded hoarse and broken.
Be tightly sealed her lips, her eyshes fluttering.
“Be, you have to believe me. I’ve been set up!”
Justin wasted no time defending himself, knowing how difficult it was to get Be to answer the phone.
“This is aplex setup. Zoe isn’t so smart to orchestrate something like this on her own. Someone is
manipting her, and the bait they used wasn’t Zoe… It
was you!”
“Half an hour from now.” Be lowered her gaze sadly. Then she added slowly, “Let’s meet at the park
near KS World Hotel.”
If it weren’t for Asher’s call earlier, Be wouldn’t have picked up Justin’s call. But now, she was eager
to hear what exnation Justin
could offer.
“Mr. Iverson, Ms. Thompson just left the hospital alone in her car.”
Taylor rushed back to report to Christopher. “She spent quite some
time in the bathroom. When she left, she looked furious. Her face
was paler than yours!”
Christopher leaned against the headboard with a gentle smile on hist
face. ‘I hope she’s angry. The angrier she is, the better. Only intense.
pain wouldpletely eradicate Justin from her heart!’
“Have someone follow Ms. Thompson closely now and prepare a car
for me. I’ll look for herter,” Christopher instructed.
Taylor wanted to advise against it, but he knew he couldn’t. He could
onlyply. “I’ll prepare the car immediately and get you a new suit…”
“No need for a suit. A patient should look the part,” Christopher said,
attempting to move, but the pain made him sweat profusely.
Taylor felt extremely ufortable seeing this. He felt that
Christopher was trulymitted to Be, but he couldn’t understand
why someone as shrewd as Christopher would appear so desperate for love. How could he allow
himself to be at a disadvantage, given hispetitive nature?
But only Christopher knew what he was nning.
In love, having the upper hand might not be a good thing at times.
Sometimes, showing vulnerability and taking a step back could lead
to unexpected results.
Moreover, Be was such a strong-willed woman. She had suffered
enough from Justin. He would never let her be wronged again and
ensure she got the pride and dignity she deserved.
At that moment, the phone under his pillow vibrated.
Taylor quickly picked it up and handed it to Christopher. “Mr. Iverson,
it’s Ms. Smith.”
Christopher’s expression darkened as he answered the call. “Hello.”
“Mr. Iverson, how did my task go?” Yvonne’s voice was cheerful, with a hint of charm. “I sent those
photos to Justin. He actually believed

them and rushed to the hotel immediately. He was so eager to jump into the trap! Haha! In the end, all
his brilliance in the business world is wasted. He is nothing but a fool for women. This kind of scoundrel
doesn’t deserve to be your opponent.”
“Did you send the photos to his phone via text message?” Christopher asked calmly.
“Yes.”
