Bella's teary eyes widened as she stared at Justin in disbelief! She hung her head, staring blankly at her hands.

In the past, Justin would eagerly reach out and hold her hand.

They would kiss and cuddle, their fingers intertwined in a tight embrace. Justin would whisper soft promises in her ear, repeating over and over that no matter what, he vowed never to let go of her hand. However, Justin was coldly pulling his hand away from hers.

In that moment, Bella felt an agonizing pain, as if her very bones were being ripped from her body.

When lan saw this, he was shocked, his face turning pale.

No one understood better than him how much Justin had loved Bella before the coma and how deeply they were in love.

But Justin, who had just regained consciousness, though unaffected by amnesia, seemed to have transformed into a different person altogether.

His attitude toward Nigel, Gregory, and even the woman he had once loved was shockingly cold and distant.

"Grandpa, Dad." Justin turned his indifferent gaze away from Bella's eyes and spoke in a low, weary tone, "I'm tired, and I'd like to rest for a while. Can everyone please leave the room?" Gregory was briefly taken aback for a moment.

Unlike Justin's more sensitive and graceful elder brother, Justin had always been aloof and reserved from a young age. He had always been distant and cold to the people around him, never openly expressing his feelings to others.

However, after regaining consciousness, his personality seemed to have become even colder and more isolated than before.
