NovelOnlineDespite Drew'sposure, Yvonne could tell he was on the brink of falling apart. If she said one more word, even just a gentle reassurance, it would cause the emotions he was barely holding back toe crashing down all at once.
"Ash... Justin..." As soon as Drew saw his family, the usually defiant and strong man started trembling uncontrollably. Unable to hold back his emotions any longer, he finally broke down in tears.

The most important thing right now is to rescue Bella." "It's all my fault... It's all my damn fault!" Drew slapped himself hard. "I neglected Bella... I lost our little sister! I deserve to die!" "Drew, it's not your fault," Justin said as he walked over with heavy steps. His eyes were red, and his usually bright eyes were now sunken from exhaustion. “If anyone is to blame, it's me. I'm Bella's husband. I promised everyone that I would protect her... But I messed everything up. I'm sorry." He messed everything up.
He had said the sthing when he learned that Bella had lost their child. But now, the weight of those words was a thousand times heavier, weighing on him heavily.
"Bella...?!" Camilla cried out when she saw Yvonne, who looked almost identical to her sister. She ran forward and hugged Yvonne tightly.
"Camilla, this isn't Bella. She's Drew's girlfriend," Edward said, staring at Yvonne's face with astonishment, momentarily dazed. He still reached out to embrace Camilla's shoulders, gentlyforting her. "We're all here. You're too tired. Let's go upstairs and rest, okay?" Seeing that Camilla was insistent on staying, Yvonne softly said, "Camilla..." Hearing that familiar voice, Camilla covered her mouth, crying uncontrollably.
"I will apany you upstairs to rest, okay?" Yvonne asked, imitating Bella's tone and mannerisms.
Surprisingly, it worked. Because of that face, the mentally exhausted Camilla was indeed soothed by Yvonne's presence. With Yvonne's support, they slowly headed upstairs. The living room was left in silence.

But now she had no choice but to take on Bella's role tofort Camilla, who was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
"Drew, we already looked into it. The helicopter that took Bella was heading toward the southern sea," Ralph said once everyone calmed down a bit. "If I were Christopher, Kd definitely take Bella away from the mainland. I wouldn't stay in the mountains, as it's hard to escape and there's a lack of supplies. But even though the helicopter was heading south, it might have changed course. Still, it's a lead. We can start searching the islands in the southern region of Sentania." mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflo&1 mmMwWLliI0fifl0&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1
