Chapter 1154 Justin's strong arm held Bella’s delicate waist, gazing at her with affection and a smile.

Axel and Ralph led very hectic lives, seldom seen together. When they did show up as a pair, it meant that things were complicated.

Ralph let out a burp, his expression turning serious. “Shannon took a urine test this afternoon, and it's confirmed she used drugs. She insists it’s not drug abuse but merely using medication. She argued that she believed the injections were just regular beauty treatments provided by her plastic surgeon, Dr. Fairchild. She claims to have no knowledge of this and believes she’s being set up.” Bella was suddenly shocked.

The drugs given to Shannon were actually prepared by Simon, who had a wide knowledge of pharmacology. She trusted him completely in this aspect and never questioned his expertise.

However, she was shocked when he directly injected the drugs in her. Such a large dosage could be lethal! Bella strongly defended Simon. “Ralph, this matter has nothing to do with Dr. Fairchild. Shannon must be desperate and trying to drag someone down with her in her final moments, throwing Dr. Fairchild under the bus.” Bella vigorously defended Simon.

“I know Simon, Bella. Dad has helped him, and he’s close to you,” Ralph said with a serious expression as the playful exchange between siblings disappeared from his eyes.

“But as a police officer, | have to remain impartial and follow the law.

| can’t misuse my position for personal reasons. Shannon claims she’s being set up by Simon. Even if she’s not telling the truth, we still need to bring in Simon for questioning and follow protocol,” Ralph added.

Bella lowered her long lashes, feeling somber and quiet.

Justin furrowed his brows slightly Naturally, he didn’t want to see any conflict between the siblings. He gently took Bella's hand, soothingly massaging her palm. “Hey Captain Ralph, we get it. Just do what you think is right.” The term “Captain Ralph” made Ralph feel swarmth toward Justin. But Bella felt uneasy inside. She knew that Ralph was right, but she just felt bad for Dr. Fairchild. She didn’t want anyone else around her to suffer because of her.

The vibe when the siblings were together was seldom this heavy.

Ralph’s heart felt heavy. Not wanting to linger under his little sister's gaze, he murmured, “I still have sthings at the station | need t deal with first, so I'll head back.” He then turned to Axel and continued softly, “Axel, please accompany Bella more. It's rare that you both can spend ttogether.

Just as he was about to leave, Bella suddenly rose and threw herself into Ralph’s arms, tightly embracing him. “Ralph, please don’t go! | didn’t ask you to leave!” Ralph opened his arms right away to hug her back, feeling emotional.

Even though they were close like the others, being half-siblings Chapter 1154 3/3 created a small distance between them. This made it rare for him to embrace his sister so intimately. Every the wanted to show his love for her, he'd hesitate due to shyness.

“I thought you were mad,” Ralph said softly, lowering his head and gently stroking her hair with his large hand.

Bella looked up with a dewy face and shook her head. “Ralph, how could | be mad at you? | know about your journey from passing the police academy entrance exam to joining the criminal investigation team and now becoming the captain of the team. It hasn't been easy for you. | shouldn't have been so stubborn and mixed public and private matters. Go ahead and do what you need to do. Whatever happens, I'll support your decision.” lan observed the intimate interaction between Bella and Ralph while sneaking a glance at Justin's expression, which turned out to be as, dark and angry as he had anticipated.

Justin let out a deep breath. Despite trying to keep his cool, jealousy and anger colored his eyes.

“Hey, feeling jealous?” Axel pulled up a chair and plopped down ne to him, munching on a pastry and speaking with his mouth full.

“If this little bit of gets to you, how will you handle being around us and Bella in the future? You'll be crying all the time!”
