Chapter 2226

In a mysterious mountaintop villa in Sentania, it was lush with greenery and scenic views.

The bedroom was dimly lit, and a calming fragrance emitted from an antique burner, the white smoke swirling, settling all restlessness, agitation, and noise into silence.

Bella lay peacefully on the soft, large bed, deep asleep.

She was still wearing her pristine, luxurious wedding dress, beautiful and fragile, so much so that one would hesitate to touch her. Even Sleeping Beauty would pale in comparison.

A tall and refined figure sat in a wheelchair, silhouetted against the light, quietly facing Bella's direction.

"Sir, I've checked her over. She doesn't have any external injuries." Having studied basic medicine, Clarice could manage a simple physical exam. "Her blood test results are out too. There's an anesthetic and sedative residue, but nothing harmful to her health."

She curled her lips slightly, her tone tinged with mockery. "I told you, Christopher loves her too much to poison her."

"Being cautious never hurts." Grant's elegant and handsome face softened, his voice clear and melodious. "It seems Ms. Bella has suffered quite a bit on the island. When I last saw her, my brother had kept her as radiant and delicate as a fine diamond. Now, she seems much thinner. But it doesn't matter. She's still breathtakingly beautiful."

"Sir, I've been with you for so long but rarely hear you compliment anyone."

Clarice's eyelid twitched. She tried to suppress her emotions but could not hide the slight bitterness in her tone. "You really care about Ms. Bella."
