Everyone turned around in the direction of that pleasant voice.
They were shocked to see who had arrived.
Asher walked into the lobby gracefully with a slight smile, followed by Steven.
Bella’s eyes lit up. She was so happy to see him that she almost could not stop herself from greeting him.
Justin’s heart shrank. His already cold eyes suddenly turned to ice.
In a daze, Bella felt a chill around her, as if she were standing next to an iceberg.
She subconsciously glanced at Justin and saw the man’s extremely gloomy and handsome face. His eyes were dark and scary, as if a storm was brewing.
“Old Master Nigel, I’m sorry for being late.” Asher bowed to Nigel politely.
Asher looked different today. He wore a perfectly tailored, light-colored suit that made him look like a cultured gentleman.
The women around him were once again enchanted.
They were thinking about who-among Justin, Asher, and Ryan-they wanted to grace them with their presence in their dreams tonight.
“It’s alright. I’m just glad that you can make it to my birthday party, Asher.” Nigel smiled amiably. He did not treat Asher less favorably just because he was Wyatt Thompson’s son.
Bella secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She thought that Nigel would mind having Asher there, but she realized that she was overthinking it.
“Anna, come here.” Asher smiled gently and stretched out his hand to his sister.
Seeing Asher appear out of nowhere, Shannon and Rosalind looked at each other and smiled in triumph.
What they wanted to see was how two wealthy young men fought over Anna. In the end, everyone would think that Anna was a cheater, and Nigel would be able to see her true nature, killing two birds with one stone!
“Okay.”
As a result, Bella did not hesitate to walk toward Asher briskly.
Shannon and Rosalind were stunned.
When Ryan saw his crush returning to her rightful place next to her supposed boyfriend, he felt sad and jealous.
Was this what being a mistress felt like? It was so painful to endure!
Justin’s shoulders trembled under his suit. His eyes widened, and he raised his arms slightly before he clenched his fists.
He did not know what he was trying to grab.
An unexplainable bitterness spread throughout his throat.
“Huh? Anna, when did you meet Asher? You two seem to be pretty good friends.” Nigel was confused.
“Dad, you don’t know yet, right? Anna is now…”
Shannon was just about to add fuel to the fire when Asher spoke first.
“Old Master Nigel, thank you for taking care of Anna over the past three years. Anna talks about you often in front of me and has always regarded you as a respected elder. Anna and I will forever remember your kindness to her.”
Asher’s strong arms gently wrapped around Bella’s slim waist. Everyone was shocked to see this.
Standing together, Asher and Anna looked like they had just stepped out of a painting. They looked like a match made in heaven.
Justin clenched his fists tightly. He felt like the blood in his body had coagulated.
“But from now on, my family and I will take good care of Anna. Although she will no longer be a member of the Salvador family, her relationship with you will never change.”
Asher smiled politely. “You will always be Anna’s most beloved grandpa.”
Asher was courteous and graceful. No one could pick a fault with him.
“Oh!”
Nigel suddenly understood and looked at Bella in shock. “Anna, are you and Asher…”NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
