Chapter 1101

Bella stared coldly at Christopher’s face, observing the hidden darkness behind his gentle exterior. She slowly clenched her fists.

“Good, | understand your intentions. There will be many chances for you and Bella to bond in the days ahead.” Wyatt’s gaze

toward Christopher was surprisingly warm, his words carrying a hint of

intrigue.

The flash of cameras captured this moment, and onlookers couldn’t help but sigh in astonishment.

As a legendary figure and a top-ranking tycoon in the business world, Wyatt rarely showed such warmth to any young man. This

kind of behavior was usually reserved for someone like a future son-in-law!

“Why do | get the feeling that Chairman Thompson is intentionally trying to set up Ms. Thompson with Mr. Iverson?” Somebody

whispered quietly.

“| agree. It’s quite obvious that his attitude is cold and distant toward

Mr. Salvador but very warm toward Mr. Iverson. Everyone in the

business world knows that Chairman Thompson and Chairman Iverson are close friends, and their families have had a long-

standing relationship! If Ms. Thompson wasn’t determined and Chairman Thompson didn’t support her, she might have married

into the Iverson family instead of marrying Mr. Salvador three years ago.”

“But I’ve noticed that Ms. Thompson seems to still have lingering feelings for Mr. Salvador. Walking the red carpet, holding

hands-they

seem to have reconciled.”

“Hmm, what’s the point? How many of these noble family marriages are truly their own decisions? If Chairman Thompson

allowed her once, would he do so again?”

“If the Thompson family indeed formed an alliance with the Iverson family, it would be major news and could significantly alter

Savrow's

business scene!”

Bella couldn’t bear to listen any longer, and her expression darkened

as she swiftly walked away.

“Bella!”

Christopher ran after her by himself, his eyes filled with worry.” What’s the matter? Are you still upset about what Zoe just did?”

Bella remained silent, continuing to walk ahead without saying a word.

“Bella, if you still feel unsatisfied, | can find many ways to help you feel better. I’ll do anything as long as it makes you happy.”

Suddenly, she stopped walking.

“Do you actually have the evidence? Evidence that refutes Z

accusations against me.”

“No, | was only pretending to scare her because | knew she was and afraid of being exposed,” Christopher admitted with a soft

chuckle.

“Given my understanding of Zoe, she’s no different than Bethany. As the heiress of the Hoffman family, who is deeply cherished

by Logan and Ryan, would she really be afraid of a mere threat from you?”

Bella turned toward him suddenly, her gaze becoming increasingly

suspicious. “Or perhaps Mr. Iverson and Ms. Hoffman have some

personal connection. Maybe she did this for your benefit.”

This statement was undoubtedly sarcastic. Yet, it inadvertently struck

a chord, hitting right at Christopher’s dark heart!

Adjusting his glasses, the glint of the lenses hid his dark motives.

“Bella, | would never interact with any woman aside from you.”

“Please, stop. | have someone | care for. Regardless of your interest

in me, | am not interested in you.”

Her words were like a sharp sword,

“Bella, |...”

“| don’t want to deprive Mr. Iverson of the rights that a normal man

should have.”

Bella sneered, exposing his schemes. “Don’t bother trying to Chairman Thompson. | won’t change my mind and choose you.”
