Chapter 455
The sweet breath of the delicate woman filled the quiet hospital room. Christopher sat by
Bella’s bedside in the same position, keeping a close eye on her.
Bella rolled over, a soft whimper escaping from the depths of her throat. Christopher felt a
numbing sensation wash over him.
For years, whether in Savrow or Sentania, countless charming and beautiful women had
offered themselves to him one after the other. Surprisingly, the more of this occurred, the
less interested he became. He thought women were more troublesome than stubborn

stuck to the hull of a boat.
But Bella was different. Only Bella could be so daring with him and do whatever she
wanted. Even if it meant engaging in shady activities, he was not afraid of the
consequences, as long as he could continue to spoil her.
Christopher’s intense gaze deepened. He reached out instinctively, eager to delicately
caress the face that lingered in his dreams.
Suddenly, his phone vibrated. It was a message from the secretary.
[Mr. Iverson, Ms. Thompson’s family is here to pick her up. They are
right at the entrance.]
Christopher adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and opened the door to the ward. The tall
figures of Asher, Axel, and Steven stood before

“Please accept my sincere apologies, Mr. Thompson.” Christopher

seized the initiative right away. “Bella had a severe stomachache and could not even walk,
so I had to take her to the hospital first. I was unable to notify you in time.”
Steven’s lips tightened into a pale line, unable to accept this man taking Bella away
without permission.
“Mr. Iverson, you-”
Steven was about to say something when Asher motioned for him to calm down. Instead,
he turned to face Christopher with a cold smile. Thank you for bringing Bella to the
hospital, Mr. Iverson. But you were aware that we were looking for our little sister, and yet
you repeatedly ignored my calls and eventually turned off your phone. What did you
mean by that?”
Axel’s brow furrowed deeply, displeasure visible in his eyes. This man had the audacity to
take away their precious little sister! Did he think they would not do anything to him?
Christopher, with a tender smile, adopted a humble stance. “I apologize. I was solely
concerned with Bella at the time and wanted. her to sleep soundly. I did not think much
further than that.”
“Hmm, what exactly do you mean? Are we not solely concerned about
Bella?” The words irritated Axel, and his rage erupted instantly.
“It is only natural for both of you to shower her with affection and
love as her elder brothers,” Christopher stated calmly. “Given your
unwavering devotion to Bella, you should not mind having one more
man in the world who adores her, right?”
Axel and Steven were completely taken aback. This man was
incredibly direct, openly declaring his admiration for Bella without
hesitation in front of them. There was no one with such unrestrained emotions in the
Thompson family. Even Bella, who was adored by everyone, was decisive and confident.
She had never expressed her emotions so passionately and openly.
If she had been this brave back then, daring to express herself, she would not have
suffered so much and endured so many grievances at
Justin’s hands.
Meanwhile, Asher’s gaze deepened as he heard these words. At this point, he had to admit
that his father had a sharp eye. He was not entirely unreasonable in his opposition to
Bella’s association with
Christopher.
This man, despite appearing gentle and devoted to Bella, made Asher uneasy. A subtle
sense of intrusion pressed against his chest.
“Wait for me, Axel. I’ll go get Bella.” Asher, with a stern expression on
his face, was about to open the door of the ward when he came to a
halt next to Christopher. “Mr. Iverson, we have plenty of people here.
who care for her. It would be inconvenient to bother you any further.
Please leave.”
Christopher walked toward the parking lot with a relaxed expression, seemingly unaffected

“Mr. Iverson, do those two Thompson brothers have an issue with you? They’re practically
showing their disdain earlier.” His secretary asked, frustrated.
“In-laws have never liked each other. After all, Bella is their cherished little princess. How
could they let another man take her away?”
Christopher raised an eyebrow. “It doesn’t matter. In the end, I want to marry Bella, not
them. I don’t care how they perceive me.”
The secretary was still resentful. “I can’t help but feel sorry for you. You used to have a lot
of power in Sentania. You were essentially the uncrowned king. Why subject yourself to
Savrow’s scrutiny and
endure this kind of treatment?”
“Sentania… I had everything there, but so what?” Christopher adjusted his glasses, his
eyes sparkling with a cold, sharp light. “I was born. with a silver spoon, but I had to live by
myself in Sentania. While others see the glamor, only I understand the agony of each day
in Sentania. If not for those filthy Iverson family members and Lance’s heartlessness, the
entire Iverson Group would have been under my
control.”
Suddenly, his eyes turned red. “And Bella… Why did she have to marry Justin, that beast?
She should have been my wife a long time ago!”
The secretary shivered and bowed respectfully as he looked at the
somewhat agitated Christopher.
“I want Iverson Group, and I want Bella as well. I must reclaim everything I have lost!”
