Chapter 1984

If Ryan heard this, he would tease Justin forever.

How pathetic! Justin was a tyrant in public, but a coward in private!

"A paramour?"

Bella's beautiful eyes narrowed seductively. She hooked her finger under his chin and gently lifted it. "Mr. Salvador, will you be content with that?"

"I won't." Justin's intense gaze locked with hers. The abrupt movement of his Adam's apple as he swallowed was exceptionally alluring, "But I know that I don't deserve to be your husband."

If he was not qualified, then who was?

Yet the Thompsons had always carried a certain pride. Bella's heart raced, but her lips curled into a teasing smile. "Is this your idea of a proposal?"

Justin's thin lips tightened in bitterness. He was at a loss for words.

"People propose with romantic ceremonies and luxurious rings. I've never seen anyone use a comb and a broken one at that." Bella placed her hand on her hip, feigning anger.

Justin's large hand clenched, the teeth of the comb digging into his flesh.

He recalled the time when Bella married him. There was no proposal and no wedding. She moved into Tideview Manor with just a simple suitcase.

She even wore the three-carat wedding ring he had chosen without much thought every day, as if it were a treasure.

Justin saw reminders of his failures in every instance. It was capable of drowning him over and over again.

He even dreamed of marrying her. However, even now, he could not bring himself to say the words: Marry me, Bella.
