504 The Tender Goodbye

Nick stood up and stood in front of the painting of a family of three.

She used very conservative colors and her painting method was very immature, but the layout was very warm, more coordinated and very eye-catching.

This was a picture that was branded in her heart, so she didn’t need a model, and she could paint it proficiently.

Bella slept very lightly, when Nick sat down beside her bed she had already wakened up. Through the moonlight, she saw Nick standing in front of the portrait of the family of three.

When his finger passed over the painting, Bella was shocked and sat up subconsciously.

She was afraid he would regret it temporarily and tear up the painting.

She got up quickly and anxiously, Nick put his hand back, walked over and sat down beside the bed. He looked at her with a smile, "Are you afraid that I will tear it?"

His voice was very gentle, unlike the previous words that were always thorny and ironic.

Bella saw that he was not hostile, she became relaxed, at the same time she was a little embarrassed for her evil thoughts. She said compensating, "I will definitely finish your painting tomorrow."

The moonlight was very light, and Bella couldn’t see Nick's expression very clearly, so she did not see the desolation in his eyes.

Nick's voice was still gentle, "I'll go out tomorrow."

Bella was a little surprised, "Are you going to check my brother's affairs in person?"

She thought Nick was going to confirm whether Edwin was really sick.

"Yeah." Nick did not deny. "There must be some people buried in the hospital. Maybe Charles is waiting there in person. Only if I go in person will you not be exposed."

Bella held his arm resting on the bed with a touch of excitement, and said gratefully, "Nick, thank you. If there is really heaven after death, I will certainly bless you there."

"Will there be heaven after death?" Nick's eyes lit up. "In that case, you must bless me well. After all, I have raised you for so many days. It is very hard."

He was very kind and relaxed today. This made Bella also relaxed, she laughed, "Yes, you have raised me for so many days, I must bless you well."

She let go of her hand and said, "Go to bed, aren't you going out tomorrow?"

The moment her hand left his arm, Nick held her hand and pulled it in his palm. Just when Bella was about to resist, he said, "My mother, she is also from the Beck."

Bella was surprised, "Why I have never heard it from my brother?"

"She lived hundreds of years ago, your brother didn't know her." Nick said.

"So, she had the same blood as me?"

Nick said, "She is not as pure as you, but with the pardon technique of the former king, she can already transform. So..."

"So..." Bella responded, "So, are you my relative? Cousin?"

Nick smiled unconsciously, "It should be ... the great-grandfather..."

Bella spat out her tongue, "You are so old..."

"Charles is older than me."

Bella was speechless, "..."

She didn't have such an understanding of Charles’ age. In her heart, Charles was her peer, without boundaries of age.

"Bell..." Nick called her suddenly.

She looked up at him, but could not see his expression. She asked, "What happened?"

"Tell me what kind of person I am in your heart?" Nick was afraid that she misunderstood and explained, "You hate me so much."

Bella said, "I don't hate you. On the contrary, I was very grateful to you before. I really treat you as my friend."

Maybe it was dark at night, she couldn’t see his always ironic and contemptuous eyes; maybe she was really too boring, tonight Nick's affinity made her interested in chatting.

She recalled, "The first time I saw you, you arrived first. Because I was late, you rebuked me so hard, but you still gave me that job offer. You don’t know how much I lacked money at that time. I thought this little boy was really awkward. Obviously, he was so kind, but his mouth was really poisonous."

"Boy?" Nick laughed. "That little boy is over 200 years old."

"Yeah, you are right." Bella smiled, "If I knew you were two hundred years old at that time, I would definitely..."

Nick took the conversation, "Definitely escape."

"No, I'll definitely take the offer." Bella smiled, "Because I was really short of money at that time. At that time I thought Charles was a vampire, but I stayed with him because I really needed money."

Nick smiled, "You are so realistic."

"Yeah. I was too poor at the time." Bella smiled. "So, you were like a god of fortune that fell from the sky, and you came to help me specifically. Although you talked meanly, you were there every time to give me a chance. So ... I thought we were friends for a while. Then I knew you approached me because of Charles. You wanted to use me to fight Charles."

"Do you hate me?" Nick asked, "I revealed Steven's identity, deliberately letting you know that your heart had a problem, deliberately annoying you to make your heart attack, and deliberately taking you away from Charles and letting you give up your child who you have never seen. Do you hate me?"

"No, I don’t." Bella shook her head. "To be honest, I don't hate you at all. You are just mean, even your starting point is not good for me, but everything you did helps me. You help me know who my real brother is, help me know that my heart is sick and gives me the opportunity to choose my own life and death."

She looked at his face solemnly, even if she could not really see him clearly. She still thanked him firmly, "Nick, thank you, I don't hate you. Not at all!"

"Fool!" Nick raised his hand and rubbed her head, so tender. With a blur that he never had before, he said, "I hope you can live as positively as before when I first met you. Even if you are struggling, you are still alive."

Bella smiled, "Yeah, I'm struggling to live to the last day. Even if you bully me, I don't want to die."

Nick smiled and didn't speak. They all deliberately ignored the scene of her attempt to commit suicide by holding a fruit knife around her neck that day. Such a rare quiet moment, no one wanted to destroy it.

Many people in the world were pretending to be in peace, and so were they.

"Bell, Bella, you need to continue struggling in the future." Nick hugged her tightly, and his cold lips fell on her warm brows. Then he quickly got up and left without giving her any chance to refuse.

The door opened and closed, and Bella sat quietly on the bed, sighed softly, and lay down silently.

Of course, if she could, she also wanted to struggle to live. But she was clear of her condition, and she was going to die in a few days.

At four o'clock in the morning, when people were most tired, one figure walked out of the dense forest step by step.

At this moment, Ziv, who had been standing in front of the satellite transmission screen, immediately called out, "The lord, the Second Master appeared."
