Seeing Eve run toward her, the emotions overflowing in Belle’s chest finally broke loose. Belle immediately threw her arms around Eve and burst into tears. Eve cried too, gently stroking Belle’s hair with affection.“Thank God you’re okay,” Eve whispered.Neither of them paid attention to the confused looks from the students passing by. No one knew what had happened to Belle. Everything had been tightly covered up by the Felix family. Renee’s family also played a role, so Bastian wouldn’t be exposed as a criminal. The case was shut down immediately.But the trauma inside Belle would linger forever. And now her heart shattered even more after hearing that Bastian was getting married.“I heard everything, Belle. This is so messed up.” Eve took a deep breath, tears already pooling in the corners of her eyes. “I’m sorry you had to go through all this.”“I don’t know what to do,” Belle sobbed helplessly.“It’s okay, Belle.

A message came in on Belle’s phone. She had just been about to go to sleep when she turned the light back on. Belle reached for her phone on the nightstand, unlocked the screen, and saw a message from Eve.“Did you know Bastian is fighting tonight?” Another message followed almost immediately.“He’s lost his mind. Won’t that cause trouble with his girlfriend?”Seeing the word girlfriend made Belle sink again. Whatever was going on between Bastian and Renee was not Belle’s concern, no matter how anxious she felt about him doing something this reckless.“That’s their problem,” Belle replied.“Yeah, you’re right. I don’t even know why I sent such a cringe message. You’ve both moved on with your own lives.”Belle sent back a thumbs-up emoji and placed the phone back on the nightstand.
