"Hmm... Why did you suddenly kiss me? What if Wilma walks in on us? It''s so embarrassing." Be
pursed her rosy lips.
"I''m afraid you would jump off into a freezing sea, so I''m trying to cool you down."
Justin''s breath turned heavy, and his voice was hoarse. "How are you now? Feeling better?"
"I''m alright... But I still feel wronged and suffocated." Be''s chest tightened. She sniffed as her eyes
teared up.
Seeing her pitiful expression, Justin''s heart softened.
He took Be''s flushed face into his hands, feeling the warmth that belonged to her on his palms. "Look
how angry you are. Your face feels like it''s burning. It''s not worth it for you sisters to fight over the
Iverson family. Calm down, okay?"
"How could I bear to be angry with Amelia?"
Be''s eyshes were cast down sullenly. "I''m more angry with myself. I didn''t get to crush Charles
with one strike, and I gave him a chance to breathe. Who could I me other than myself?" Justin
frowned in distress. "Be, don''t say that. It has nothing to do with you."
"Amelia said I was selfish... Yes, indeed. I want to get justice for those innocent girls, but I also want to
protect my family. Amelia has been shielded too well by Wyatt and Aunt Celeste since she was young.
Even when as an adult, Amelia hasn''t really experienced the darkness of the world and the cruelty of
humans. She is from the Thompson family. Her highborn status could help her, but it could also ruin
her." Be panted heavily, feeling as if her heart was pinched by sharp forceps, causing excruciating
pain.
"She didn''t consider it, but I remember that she always had a dream of bing an actress. If she
wants to go into acting, this attempted rape incident would be a mark of humiliation that she could
never wash away. When her namees up, people will only think of this matter. Her name will be tied
to Charles.
"How will she survive in the entertainment field? How will she hold her head up high? Words can kill.
Charles is dead and gone, but she will be pointed at for the rest of her life!"

"Be, I understand your concern. But Amelia is our sister. With us protecting her, who would dare to
target her?" Justinforted her with a soft whisper.
Be''s red eyes shone with tears,
and she shook her head in worry. "Aunt Celeste has Wyatt protecting her, but before Shannon went
down in ruins, she still lived in the
shadows of her trauma. I don''t want Amelia to be like that
"I know the situation is not the same. Aunt Celeste was set up, and Amelia was a victim. Girls who
faced this situation and are willing toe forward to testify are already courageous. I''m proud of
Amelia for having such determination,

"But how much pressure will she shoulder behind that courage? So many eyes are on the Thompson
family, and Amelia still wants to live under the spotlight... I don''t want her to regret the choice she made
today out of impulse."
"Be, as her sister, you worry like her mother instead." Justin pulled her into an embrace, holding her
tightly.
"Justin... I know I am too greedy."
Be rested her face on Justin''s

to protect the people around me. But I realized that I am only an ordinary human. I can only do this

"It''s great that you admit you''re an ordinary human."
Justin sighed, joking around to help her rx. "I''ve always thought I was dating a goddess. Now that I
know you are human, I''m relieved."
Be was speechless.
"Be, you''ve already done a good job. I couldn''t evenpare to a strand of your hair."
"Tsk! Mr. Salvador, it''s out of character for you to tter someone else." Be narrowed her eyes.
Justin replied in a husky voice, "In front of you, I only have one identity-your lover."
The defense around Be''s tough will immediately broke, and all kinds of emotions surged within. A
lump formed in her throat, and tears fell from her eyes.
Justin panicked, hurriedly wiping her tears as Be punched his chest while sobbing. "It''s your fault...
Why did you turn emotional for no reason? You made me cry!"
