Nigel's words really packed a punch. The one and only person who could talk some sense into Gregory was his own father. Bethany huddled behind Gregory like a frightened bird, too terrified to even look up.

Bella quickly went over to Carrie and whispered, "Carrie, don't be afraid... I'm here with Justin and Grandpa Nigel." Carrie looked up from Ryan's embrace, her usually radiant face now puffy from crying. Ryan's chest was wet with her tears.

Carrie choked back her tears, clutching tightly to Ryan's clothes. She softly said, "I don't want to be separated from Ryan."

At that moment, Ryan felt like his heart was being crushed. He held her tighter as if he would never let her go. "We won't be separated, Carrie. No matter what happens, I will never leave you."

Bella was momentarily stunned, her heart was filled with pain. This moment reminded her of the time when Wyatt kept her locked at home, and she had to jump out of the window on a stormy night like a crazy person to find Justin.
