Isabella stiffened in one position, pondering what to do. She waited for Justin to come out of the car, but he didn't.She swallowed hard as she nervously played with her fingers. At last, she attempted to approach Justin, since that's what he wanted.Isabella placed the flowers she received from Liam on the ground. As she was about to walk past Liam, he held her hand and angrily pulled her back.“What do you think you're doing, Isabella?” Liam scolded her.Upon seeing that, Justin asked his guards to open the car door for him, and without delaying a second, one of them opened the car door.When Liam's bodyguards saw how Justin angrily stepped out of the car, they rushed to Liam, their master, to protect him in case Justin was coming to attack him.With his blood boiling and clenching his fist, Justin gestured towards the house entrance, where Liam and Isabella were standing. His guards followed him with their dangerous guns in their hands.Upon seeing how angry Justin was, Isabella to

Isabella was quiet for a while as anger took over her. She frowned at Justin as they glared at each other.She covered the space between her and Justin, inching her face closer to Justin's face as though she wanted to kiss him.“You either marry me to claim your child or stay away from me. You know what, I'm fed up with all these things. I can no longer force you to love me, Justin. It's left to you to decide what to do.” Isabella fearlessly announced as she grinned at Justin.Justin stood with his hands akimbo as he lowered his gaze at Isabella, who was standing an inch away from him.“That will never happen, Isabella,” Justin chuckled.“Then avoid me, Justin, because I'm no longer interested in you anymore. I have gotten someone ready to take care of both me and the unborn child. His name is Liam Grayson, and he is right here with us.” immediately after she said that, she turned around and motioned toward Liam.As soon as she arrived at where Liam was standing, she took his hand into

Justin arrived home a few minutes after leaving Isabella's house. Immediately he arrived home, he showered, climbed into bed, and slept off.Later that day in the evening, after Justin had had enough sleep, he woke up and took another shower.After sleeping, one was supposed to wake up with a happy face, but the opposite happened to Justin. It was as if all the circumstances surrounding him were the ones that woke him up from sleep. There was no peace within him.After taking his shower, he sat on the bed, wondering how he was going to handle the company's challenges. How to convince Diana's Mom that he genuinely loves Diana. How to convince his family that Mr. Rolland is their rival and not a friend. Lastly, how to solve the issue of Isabella's pregnancy. He was grateful that his father spoke to the public about his uncle's death, and they were somehow convinced that he wasn't responsible for his uncle's death or else, he would have been thinking about that too. However, Justin felt

“From what I have seen so far since you came into this house, you have been experiencing one challenge or the other. However, I do not doubt that one of these issues might affect me. I'm pleading with you, Justin, to please marry Isabella. There's nothing wrong in forgiving her and accepting her back, you know.” As soon as Mr. Hemsworth said that, Justin quivered. Although that's what he was expecting, it still came as a shock to him.Justin swallowed hard and nodded his head. “All right,” Justin said. “ What if I tell you that she no longer loves me? I mean, she had moved on with her new lover.”“That can never be possible, Justin,” Mr. Hemsworth retorted as he gazed at his son, convincing himself that Justin was lying.“Huh? Why should I lie to you, Father? I visited her today, and she was with her new lover, romancing themselves. This isn't something that I was told by someone, I witnessed it myself, Father,” Justin complained.Mr. Hemsworth chuckled, thinking that Justin was only

Justin swallowed hard and then nodded his head before he began to speak.“Father, I'm finding it tough to know why I don't want to marry Isabella. Only I know what I went through because of her and her poor mom, yet she dared to cheat me and even dumped me. If you were me, what would you do, father?” Justin requested.“I will forgive her and that's simple. You should learn to forgive people, Justin, because vengeance won't take you anywhere in life. What goes around comes around and no one is above mistakes. I'm afraid that you will neglect Isabella and the same thing will happen to Ariana. Think about it, Justin. Life is full of karma, you know.” Mr. Hemsworth advised him.Upon realizing that his father wasn't ready to give up on asking him to accept the unborn child, Justin nodded.“All right, let's assume I have forgiven her, but I would rather not marry her and only need the child. What should I do if she said I can't get the child without marrying her?” Justin inquired.“I think s

Chapter 46 Don't Break My Heart
“Are you surprised to see me here?” Diana inquired as she sheepishly smiled at Justin, who stood with his hands folded above his chest.“Um… well, yes. I was about to ask if your Mom knew that you were coming here. I believe she wouldn't have allowed you if she knew.” Justin responded with a calm voice.“Well,” Diana sighed and nervously clapped her hands. “ My mom is no longer supporting anyone.”“I’m lost here. What do you mean?” Justin couldn't comprehend what Diana was saying.“I mean, my mom no longer cares about who I date and who I ignore.” she happily explained.“How is that possible? If I could remember, she said she wanted you to date Dawson and not me. What happened that she suddenly changed her mind? Did your father talk to her ?” Justin threw a few questions at Diana, curiously waiting for her to respond.“Not at all. My dad didn't talk to her. However, Dawson came to our house today to see me…”“Huh?” Justin quickly mouthed as though it was something that couldn't be poss

Immediately they stepped into the house, their gaze fell on Ariana, who was lying on one of the couches with her face facing the ceiling as she operated her phone.“Hey, Ariana,” Diana called out as she let go of Justin's hand and ran to her friend. Ariana quickly sat up on the couch and turned her gaze to the entrance, where Justin and his girlfriend were coming in.Upon realizing who called her name, happiness took over her. She hastily stood up and widened her arms to welcome her dear friend.“Hey, Diana,” Ariana muttered as they embraced each other. “How have you been doing, Diana?” Ariana quickly asked after letting go of Diana.“I have been doing fine, my dear,” Diana responded with a smile curving her lips as she stood in front of Ariana.“Are you certain that you're fine? Because I have tried your line, but it hasn't been connecting, making me feel unsettled. I was planning to visit you tomorrow if I call you this evening, and you don't pick up again,” Ariana explained.“Um…

“Huh?” Justin mouthed, astonished.“Yes. If that's what will make him change his mind, then I will meet him myself.” She seriously announced without any trace of a joke on her face.Immediately after she said that, she let go of Justin's hands, attempting to leave for Mr. Hemsworth's room.Upon seeing how serious Diana was, Justin quickly grabbed her hand and pulled her back.“What do you think you're doing, Diana?” he asked with a sad expression as he glared at her. “I’m trying to fight for what I want, Justin. Do you have any issue with that?” Diana frowned at Justin and jerked her hand off his grasp.“ this is the time I will know whether you love me or not.”As soon as she said that, she motioned towards the door. “Shit!” Justin cursed through gritted teeth as he clenched his hand into a fist and went after Diana.Diana descended the staircase to the enormous living room to meet Ariana. Thankfully, as she arrived in the living room, Ariana was still relaxing in the living room.Ju

The dining table was set, Mr. Hemsworth's favorite foods were prepared, and the house was looking its best. Now all that was left was for Justin's father to arrive. Everything was done by the kitchen maids, but Ariana and Diana didn't fail to assist them.On the contrary, Justin assisted the men's servants in decorating the house based on the idea Ariana gave them. Ariana had stayed with her father for her whole life, so everything was done by what she said.“Now that we're done and everyone has taken his or her shower, I suggest we go to his room and invite him. What do you think?” Justin asked Ariana, his hands akimbo.“No, Justin. Let's wait for him here. That would be better than approaching him, you know.” Ariana responded with a slight smile.“Perfect. Let's go with that.” Justin thumbs up for Ariana. Ariana, Justin, and Diana sat in the living room, trying to remain calm as they patiently waited for the man of the house to arrive in the living room. It was as if Mr. Hemsworth

Just as Justin was about to make his announcement, Mr. Hemsworth interrupted."Thank you very much for this, everyone. You have done a good job. Until the day I die, I will never forget this. Many thanks to Diana who assisted in doing this,” Mr. Hemsworth appreciated them as he sipped a glass of juice.“My pleasure, sir,” Diana muttered shyly, her gaze fixed on the delicious food she was eating."I am glad you like it, Father. Actually, it was my big bro who came up with such an idea. I think he deserves an award.” Ariana made a lighthearted remark to her father.“Oh, that? That is not worth worrying about.” Mr. Hemsworth shifted his gaze away from the two ladies and toward Justin, who pretended not to hear their conversation. “Son,” Mr. Hemsworth said. “ I would like to thank you for everything you have done to make me happy today. Make any wish, and I will grant it.”When Justin heard that, a rush of joy filled his heart, leaving him astounded at how everything was going exactly as
