Ch. 101..110
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 101-The morning sun was warm.
Bella woke up on her big and soft bed. She stuck out her perky little butt under the quilt and languidly stretched her slender arms forward, looking like a sleepy kitten.
As usual, she put on a white sports suit and went kayaking on the lake in the backyard.
Steven was already dressed and waiting for his boss to come ashore with a water bottle in his right hand and a clean towel draped on his right arm.
“All the videos online regarding Bethany insulting our hotel employee have been deleted. The keyword searches have also disappeared.” Steven handed Bella a white towel and thoughtfully opened the water bottle for her. “Although there has been some discussion about it online, those will be suppressed soon. I’m afraid the matter will fizzle out.” “Of course. Salvador Corporation’s public relations team and legal team are second to none in Savrow. Justin has bought them all over.” Bella panted lightly as she wiped the beads of sweat flowing down her cheeks.
“So, Justin Salvador asked them to delete those videos?” Steven’s eyes widened.
Bella flicked her hair and tipped her chin up as she took a gulp of water. Her eyes were dark and bottomless.
Although Bella was just drinking water, her slender neck was stretched out in a seductive arc, made Steven’s heart tremble.
which “It’s human instinct to avoid calamities and seek advantages. Justin only cares about his interests.” Bella raised the back of her hand to wipe away the water droplets on her lips. She laughed self- deprecatingly and said, “If only I had met him as a business rival first, I would never have fallen in love with this man.” She had met the wrong person at the wrong time.
Her love for Justin was completely incongruous with her values and principles.
“Then how do you plan to fight back next?” Bella’s harmless-looking eyes turned shrewd and cunning as she came up with a great idea.
“That girl hasn’t been discharged from the hospital yet, right? Let’s go to the hotel for the inspection and the meeting, then we’ll go to the hospital to see how she’s doing.” A few hours later, the hotel’s housekeeping staff, Skye, had been transferred to the general ward at the Thompson Hospital. When Skye saw the general manager coming to visit her in person, she hurriedly wanted to get up from the bed to greet Bella.
Bella hurriedly stepped forward to hold her down and said with a friendly smile, “Lie down, Skye. You don’t need to be nervous. Your recovery is more important.” “Ms. Thompson… I’m sorry for causing you trouble!” Skye lowered her head in shame. “I didn’t know that I had epilepsy. I didn’t mean to hide my health condition from the company… I really didn’t know this would happen… It’s all my fault…” “I’ve checked your medical records and found that this is your first time having a seizure. You didn’t have this symptom before, so I know that you didn’t hide it from your health declaration. Don’t blame yourself.” Bella smiled lightly.
“Please deduct the hospitalization and medical bills from my salary.” “No need. This is considered a work-related injury, so the hotel will foot the bill for you.” “Thank you, Ms. Thompson.” Skye was so touched that tears welled up in her eyes.
“I came here this time to ask you something.” Bella said in a solemn and soft voice, “What do you want to do about Bethany Salvador?” “She’s the daughter of the Chairman of Salvador Corporation, and I’m a nobody. What can I do? I noticed that all the videos online were deleted this morning. It seems that ordinary people like me don’t even have the power to speak out through the media…” Skye lowered her head in frustration.
Bella narrowed her charming eyes and spoke in a resounding voice, “Salvador Corporation is robbing you of the right to speak out, but I won’t.” Skye stared at Bella in surprise. “You want me to…” Bella said calmly, “If you want Bethany to apologize to you, you will need to make this big. In turn, you’ll have more exposure, which will more or less affect your life. I’m here to ask for your opinion on the matter since you are the one most affected. Although I am your boss, I won’t do anything against your wishes.” “I… I want Bethany to apologize to me, even if it’s just in private…” “No, don’t settle this privately. I want this to be made public.” Bella always spoke concisely and to the point. She was never one to beat around the bush.
“You… You want her to apologize to me publicly? How is that possible?” Skye gaped her mouth in disbelief.
“Skye, Bethany will never settle this privately or apologize to you because she has humiliated you in front of so many people.” Steven said gently, “Bethany will have no choice but to apologize to you if we force her into the public eye.” “Forget it, Ms. Thompson. I don’t want to cause trouble for the hotel.” Skye was frightened, and she hurriedly shook her head.
“Don’t be afraid. If Bethany dares to retaliate against you, she will be digging her own grave. I have my own reasons to do this too.” Bella smiled confidently. “If you agree to have this made public, just leave it to me. I won’t let my employees suffer in vain.” She would not let Justin sweep this under the rug!
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 102-Bella did not mind the divorce, but she must never lose in business.
After coming out of the ward, Bella put on her sunglasses to cover the emotions surging in her eyes.
She dialed her fourth brother’s phone number.
“Baby sis, I’m so glad that you finally think of me!” Drew sounded aggrieved as he said, “Did you know? Ax laughed at me, saying that you gave me the cold shoulder. I panicked, damn it! Of all people, I can’t lose to that idiot!” “You’re my brother, too. Why do you make it sound like you need to compete for my love?” At that moment, Bella paused and said in a soft voice, “Drew, can you please help me with something?” “Please? Please?! Oh no… It’s over. Do you not love me anymore? Have we grown so far apart?” Drew started to act up again. He said dramatically, “You actually said ‘please’ to me. It looks like I have to move back here as soon as possible. Otherwise, you’ll forget my handsome face in another two years!” “Drew, are you done with that act?! I want you to do me a favor!” Bella could not stand it anymore and yelled into her phone, causing the doctors and nurses passing by to look at her oddly.
They were wondering why such a pretty girl had such an explosive temper.
“That’s more like it. I feel much better now if you talk like this. So, what do you need help with?” Drew asked with a smile.
Bella’s eyes darkened. She lowered her voice and said, “I will release a video tomorrow, and I hope you can use some special methods to prevent the video from being taken down.” “How long do you want it to stay online?” “At least until the news spreads.” “Sure, that’s easy. But don’t you want to express your gratitude to me for helping you? Hmm?” Drew’s voice was languid and husky, which was particularly attractive.
“What do you want?” Bella raised her eyebrows and asked frankly.
“I want to beat Justin up to vent my anger. Is that okay?” Bella’s lips twitched.
“Get lost!” The next day at Salvador Corporation, Justin was sitting at the head of the massive conference table.
His eyes were cold and stern, and his handsome face was solemn. Just sitting there, he looked so awe- inspiring and aloof.
“I want the land in Waverly East District as soon as possible. All departments must coordinate well so that we can win the bid…” While Justin was talking, someone glanced at his phone. His eyes widened, and he patted the person next to him.
The news spread throughout the conference room faster than a virus. In just a few seconds, almost everyone in the conference room was aware of what happened.
“Is this the first day you all have a meeting with me? Don’t you know my rules?” Justin glared at the crowd, which was frightening.
At this time, Justin’s phone also vibrated.
He lowered his long, dark eyelashes and tapped twice on the screen. What he saw shocked him.
After the meeting, Justin returned to the office with a glum face.
“Didn’t you delete Bethany’s video? Why is it on the trending topics again?” “It was posted this morning, and our public relations team had no time to respond.” Ian was so worried that he started sweating nervously. “I have sent someone to contact the platform to remove the video, but the video can’t be deleted.” “Can’t be deleted? Do you think this joke is funny?” Justin’s heart was pounding fiercely, and his temples were throbbing. His tone was as cold as an iceberg as he said, “I don’t want to see Bethany Salvador’s name on any of the social media platforms within the next half an hour!” He would nip everything in the bud that threatened Salvador Corporation.
“Mr. Salvador, look at this!” Ian was shocked and quickly handed the phone to Justin.
At this moment, the number one trending topic has been replaced by another tag-# AngelRescuingHotelStaff.
Justin pursed his thin lips tightly and clicked on the article.
The next second, he felt a strong surge of anger rising in his chest. His pupils shrank.
Anna was rescuing the housekeeper in the video. Someone filmed the whole process and showed Anna’s face clearly.
Justin felt inexplicably flustered to have his ex-wife exposed in the public eye.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 103-At this moment, the air in the general manager’s office of KS World Hotel was freezing.
Bella stood facing the large floor-to-ceiling window with her hands behind her back. Her slim and beautiful figure looked invincible.
“Who asked you to release that video?” “You said you wanted something to attract the public’s attention….
Steven stood behind Bella with a gloomy face.
“Steven, as my personal secretary and someone who grew up with me, you should know what worries me the most!” Bella slowly looked back at him. “I know that you’re doing things for me, but you’re also bringing in your personal feelings. I know what you’re thinking. You want to use this to help me gain popularity and use my kind image to contrast Bethany’s vile behavior.” The more she spoke, the lower Steven’s head dropped.
That was because every word struck a chord in his heart.
“But I don’t need that attention.” Bella’s eyes turned colder. “What I did wasn’t a big deal. It was the least I could do when my employee had a seizure. No matter how much I dislike Bethany, I don’t need to suppress her by showing off. Once a good deed gets thrown into the public eye, its motive changes.” “I’m sorry, Ms. Bella. I just wanted to…” “I don’t care what you think.” Bella turned around and picked up her phone with an expressionless face. “I’m going to call Asher now and ask him to take you back. Your behavior isn’t in line with my style.” “Please, don’t!” Steven turned pale with fright. He hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Bella’s wrist. “You can punish me in any way you want! I don’t mind cleaning the hotel’s toilet or washing dishes in the kitchen. You can cut all my salary! Just please don’t make me leave you, okay?” Bella frowned slightly. Her wrists were hurting from his grip.
However, his scorching gaze at this moment frightened her even more.
Steven came from a judicial family. His father was a chief judge, and his mother was a well-known litigator. His two elder brothers also held important positions in the judiciary. Although Steven’s family was not filthy rich, the Lovetts were a respectable family in Hatchbay. As the youngest of the Lovett family, Steven received the best education and was pampered in every way.
However, this man really humbled himself for Bella and KS Group. Steven could have had a brighter future, but he was willing to sacrifice himself to be her personal secretary.
Thinking of this, Bella became soft-hearted. She sighed and said, “Fine. This is the last time I will condone such behavior.” “Thank you, Ms. Bella! I will never make decisions without your approval in the future!” Steven’s eyes lit up. He looked like he was about to cry tears of joy.
“Tsk! Also, keep your hands to yourself.” Bella lowered her eyelashes slightly and scowled.
Only then did Steven realize that he was still holding onto Bella’s wrist. His heart was beating rapidly, and his cheeks felt hot as he quickly withdrew his hand.
He could feel her lingering warmth on his palm.
“So, what do you want to do about your viral video?” “I will tell Drew to handle it. Come with me.” Bella pointed at the suit jacket on the hanger. Steven understood what she wanted and hurriedly took it off the hanger and helped her put it on, like a butler.
“Let’s go meet Bethany.” When Bethany found out that she was on the trending topics again, she was anxious.
“Mom! What should we do now?!” Bethany called Shannon anxiously and complained. “I finally made the trending topic, but now that bumpkin is stealing my spotlight! She’s deliberately making me look bad!”
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 104-“Are you stupid? Don’t you know why you went viral? You don’t feel ashamed but proud of yourself?!” Shannon shouted angrily.
Bethany held her forehead in annoyance. Of course, she was not as stupid as her mother said. She was just distracted because Anna was also on the trending topics.
“What should I do now? This negativity isn’t good for me. I couldn’t do anything, especially when the news about Anna’s rescue was leaked. Should I let that bumpkin steal the limelight?!” “I have already told your father about your predicament. He asked you to lay low. Don’t comment on anything.” Shannon’s voice was low as she continued, “Justin will definitely help you solve this matter because he won’t let anything affect Salvador Corporation’s interests. Just calm down and don’t act out. Do you understand?” Bethany’s face brightened slightly after being comforted by her mother. She hung up the phone and continued to visit her boutique with the two friends that she brought to the hotel that day.
At this moment, a top-of-the-line Rolls-Royce slowly came to a stop in front of EV Boutique.
Bella, who was wearing an haute couture blue suit, got out of the car and walked into the boutique with Steven right at her heels.
As soon as Bella appeared, she attracted the attention of all the store employees. She was so beautiful, fashionable, and regal.
“Hello, Miss. How can I help you today?” The store attendant came up to Bella and greeted her. Bella was so stunning that the store attendant completely ignored Steven, the handsome secretary behind Bella.
“Tell your boss, Bethany Salvador, to come out. I don’t need anyone but her to serve me.” Bella got straight to the point.
“Oh, um…” “I know she is upstairs. She will regret it if she keeps me waiting for a long time.” “May I know your name?” Bella’s crimson lips curled up mockingly, but she was so beautiful that the store attendant was in a daze. “Tell her that I’m Ms. Brown.” The store attendant dared not delay another moment and went upstairs to inform Bethany.
When Bethany heard that a beautiful woman named Ms. Brown came to see her, she was stunned. She wanted to throw something to vent her anger, but when she recalled that she was in her boutique, she suppressed her rage. That was because everything in the store was expensive. Bethany was still 2/2 contemplating what to do when one of her friends spoke.
“Beth, I saw that viral video of yours. That despicable woman probably leaked it!” Amy spoke indignantly.
“Yeah! Since she’s here, you can’t let her off the hook! This is a good opportunity to vent your anger. “We will definitely stand by your side and help you teach her a lesson! Let’s go and meet her!” Her friends fanned the flames, so Bethany felt emboldened and infuriated. Thus, she led her friends downstairs in great fanfare.
“Anna! You shameless bitch! How dare you come to me?!” ||
At this moment, Bella crossed her slender legs that were hidden under her wrinkle-free pants. She was sipping some black tea from an expensive teacup, looking as leisurely as if she were at home.
“Ms. Salvador, is this how you do business? Aren’t you afraid of damaging your reputation by cussing out your customers?” “What kind of customer are you?! You’re just a gold digger who wants to cozy up to my brother just so you can get a share of our family fortune!” Bethany pointed at Bella’s face with her expensive crystal manicure.
There were no other customers in the store at the moment. Only the store attendants were present.
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other.
They could not believe that this regal lady was a gold digger because she looked so extraordinary. She was so elegant and stunning that even her hair was shining. How could she be a gold digger like Bethany said?
“Fine. I’ll be frank with you. I’m not here to buy anything. After all, the things you have here are only third-rate at best. None of your merchandise caught my eye.” Bella smiled calmly.
Bella did not think that it was worth getting mad at the superficial and stupid woman in front of her.
Bethany wanted to fight back, but her arrogance suddenly faltered when she saw the priceless brooch, “The Twilight God”, on Bella’s chest.
“The purpose of my visit is simple.” Bella put down her tea cup without even raising her eyelids. “Please hold a press conference to apologize to my hotel employee, whom you have slandered and hospitalized.”
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 105-“Did you hear that? This woman actually wants me to apologize to that housekeeper. Hahahaha… Did you get hit in the head?” Bethany covered her stomach and laughed out loud. Her two plastic friends behind her also trembled with laughter.
“Beth went to your hotel to spend money, but your hotel staff broke her necklace and provided such poor service. Why can’t Beth reprimand your staff to vent her anger?” “That’s right! You still have the nerve to come over and ask Beth to apologize… Do you think that you own the hotel? Why are you so hung up over it?” Steven narrowed his eyes and thought, ‘If these two bimbos knew that all of the KS World Hotels in the country belonged to the woman in front of them, they would probably be so frightened that they would cut off their tongues.’ “Aren’t you afraid that this incident will affect the image of Salvador Corporation that your brother worked so hard to maintain? Aren’t you afraid of disgracing the Salvador family?” Bella glanced at Bethany.
“Hmph! Don’t try to scare me. I’m not the president of Salvador Corporation, so I don’t care!” Bethany rolled her eyes disapprovingly. “Besides, it’s Justin’s duty as president to worry about the company and bear all risks, including handling such matters. Otherwise, what’s the use of him sitting in such a high position? Since my father asked him to be president, he would have to show everyone some achievements, right?” The store attendants around were stunned to hear this.
Bella could not help but sneer.
On the surface, the Salvador family looked harmonious. In fact, they used each other secretly and had their own agendas.
Bethany looked down on Justin. To her and Shannon, Justin was an “illegitimate son” who would clean up their mess. Shannon and Bethany seemed useless and cowardly, but they were despicable.
When Bella married Justin, she had already seen through the Salvador family’s true colors. If she had not been deeply in love with Justin, she would not have been able to stay with them for so long.
“Ms. Salvador, even if you don’t consider Salvador Corporation’s image, you should consider your own reputation, right?” “Stop trying to scare me! Anna, don’t think that I’m afraid of you because you have Mr. Thompson as your backer. The Salvador family isn’t weak either!” Bethany put her hands on her hips and yelled. “Where’s the security guard? Kick this bumpkin out of my store! This woman lowered my boutique’s standards!” The two security guards rushed over and wanted to drag Bella out.
Bella still remained seated and motionless. Steven’s eyebrows twitched when he saw the security guards approaching Bella, so he kicked them down effortlessly.
After all, Steven had a black belt in Taekwondo, so he was more than qualified to deal with these two security guards.
Bethany screamed in fright, but the store attendants around her blushed with excitement.
They all thought that Steven was handsome and even wanted to find an opportunity to get his number.
“Ms. Salvador, since you’re so clueless, I have no choice but to show you something else.” With that said, Bella took out her phone and beckoned to Bethany. “Here, let me show you something interesting.” Bethany did not want others to think that she was timid, so she went over to the woman whose smile made her heart tremble.
She came close to the phone screen and was shocked, angry, and ashamed when she noticed what was on it.
Bella calmly showed Bethany a few photos.
Bethany thought, ‘What happened?! I’ve asked those two people to delete the photos. How could this be…?’ Bella stopped showing the photos to Bethany and put away her phone with a calm expression. “My request is very simple. Make a public apology to my employee, and I will delete all these photos. If you insist on being stubborn, you probably know what I’ll do next.” Bethany was so angry that her lips were trembling. She panicked.
Shannon had raised Bethany to be a proper elite lady so that she could marry into a wealthy family like the Hoffman family. If these photos got leaked, her reputation would be ruined. Ryan would not like Bethany anymore.
Thinking of this, Bethany was infuriated. She quickly reached over to grab Bella’s phone.
Bella raised her eyebrows and dodged easily.
Bethany fell on the sofa in embarrassment. Her eyes turned red with anger, and she raised her hand to slap Bella.
Slap-!
The crisp slap made everyone gasp in shock.
Bella’s stunning features were as cold as ice, and her wrist strength was terrifying. Bella struck Bethany with a backhand slap.
“Ah!” Five red fingerprint marks suddenly appeared on Bethany’s oval face.
All this happened in the blink of an eye.
It was so fast that no one knew how it happened.
Steven secretly cheered and thought, ‘That’s what you get for trying to hit Bella!’ Bethany’s two friends, who had previously said they would support Bethany, were so frightened that their faces turned pale. They even hid in the back for fear of getting implicated.
“You! How dare you hit me?!” Bethany stared at Bella’s face in shock while her cheek was numb with pain.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 106-“If not? Should I wait for a rabid dog like you to bite me before I hit you?” Bella glared at Bethany and dusted off her hands.
“Rabid dog?! How dare you call me a rabid dog?!” Bethany was livid.
Just then, the door to the boutique opened.
Bella raised her long eyelashes and suddenly met a piercing gaze.
The next second, Justin’s tall build appeared in the store under everyone’s shocked gaze.
Bella and Justin were both startled to see each other at the boutique.
Bella immediately averted her gaze, as if he were a mere stranger.
Justin pursed his thin lips. His eyes were dark, and he felt very anxious.
“Justin!” When Bethany saw Justin, she thought that he was her savior, so she got up and ran to him with tears in her eyes. She quickly complained before Bella could say a word. “Anna is crazy! She actually hit me! Justin, you have to stand up for me!” “I hit her. Her cheek should still be warm from the slap.” Bella admitted it with a contemptuous smile.
“What are you doing here?” Justin looked at her with cold eyes.
“What do you think?” Back then, Anna would look at Justin with sparkling eyes that were filled with hope.
At this moment, Justin could no longer find the light of desire in her eyes. She was like an emotionless doll.
Justin’s chest tightened as complicated emotions filled his heart.
“Justin! Anna actually asked me to hold a press conference to apologize to her hotel employee. I didn’t agree to it, so she threatened me and even hit me!” Seeing that Justin was indifferent to her being slapped, Bethany cried with all her strength. “Justin! These people witnessed it! Anna bullied me!” “Anna, is it not enough that the video online caused a negative backlash for Salvador Corporation? Now, you want us to hold a press conference?” Justin frowned, and his voice was deep and cold. “Don’t you think you’re going overboard?” Steven could not bear it anymore. He was about to step forward to argue with Justin, but Bella grabbed him and pulled him behind her.
This move infuriated Justin. Since their divorce, his ex-wife has been giving him the cold shoulder, so Justin felt like he finally had an opportunity to vent his anger.
“I don’t feel like I’m going overboard. I feel like I’m seeking justice.” Bella’s eyes were as dark as the muzzle of a gun.
“Ha! I don’t care whether you’re seeking justice or working for Asher. I won’t let you get your way.” “Then there’s nothing to talk about. I’m leaving.” Bella raised her eyebrows proudly, put one hand in the pocket of her trousers, and left without hesitation.
“Wait, wait!” Thinking that the photos were still with Anna, Bethany was so anxious that she started sweating.” Justin, Anna photoshopped indecent photos of me in an attempt to smear my reputation! That way, she can force me to apologize. You can’t just let her leave!” Justin’s eyes turned cold, and he strode over to block her path.
“Give me your phone.” “Why should I? Who do you think you are?” Bella sneered, feeling annoyed.
Justin quickly grabbed the phone from her hand.
Bethany saw this and secretly rejoiced.
Sure enough, Shannon was right. Justin would help them clean up their mess, no matter what. He was indeed a useful tool.
“Justin! Give it back to me!” Bella was so anxious that her breathing was unsteady. She stretched out her slender hand and clawed at Justin like a little monkey.
However, she accidentally tripped on her sky-high heels and fell firmly into the man’s warm and hard chest.
When Bella fell, Justin subconsciously wrapped his arms around her thin waist.
Bella was ashamed and furious. Her cheeks were as red as ripe cherries.
Through the smooth and delicate fabric of Justin’s shirt, Bella could feel the shape of his pectorals.
They were so damn perfect.
Justin narrowed his dark eyes and focused on Bella’s phone.
He held Bella’s waist with one hand and her phone with the other.
He remembered that her lock screen password was “0923”, but he did not know if she had changed it since then.
Justin quickly pressed four numbers with his thumb and unlocked the phone.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 107-Bella shouted, “Asshole! Give it back to me!” Bella’s face was red as her body clung to Justin’s. Her left hand was resting on his broad shoulder to maintain her balance.
She was trying to climb on him like a little monkey, but Justin held onto her tightly.
Bella’s heart trembled when Justin’s grip around her waist tightened with a hint of possessiveness.
Through the thin and smooth fabric, Bella could feel the heat from Justin’s body on her palm.
However, Justin stared at Bella’s phone with focus. His handsome face was as expressionless as an old monk in a trance.
Everyone was shocked to see Bella cursing at Justin. More importantly, Justin did not even get mad at her.
Steven was so anxious that he started sweating. He wanted to pull Bella back, but he could not reach her.
Bethany was also dumbfounded to see the two of them like this. They were not even so close when they were married. Why were they so intimate after getting divorced?
Bethany’s two plastic friends were so jealous of Bella for snuggling up to Justin that they almost chewed off their perfectly manicured nails.
Justin frowned slightly and quickly deleted all of Bethany’s indecent photos.
“Anna, why did you become so despicable after our divorce?” After he said this, he put her phone back into her pants pocket and released her waist.
“Hah! You’re a lot more despicable than I am!” Bella hurriedly took two steps back, dusted herself off, and looked disgusted.
“I got those photos based on my own merit, unlike you, Mr. Salvador. You couldn’t defeat me, so you just reached out and stole it from me. You’re an uncultured swine!” The store attendants snickered and thought, ‘Then he’s certainly the most handsome pig in history!’ Justin’s face darkened, and his thin lips were pursed.
He was mad at Anna for calling him an uncultured swine in front of so many people, but what irked him more was the ruthless look in her eyes. She was getting estranged from him.
How much did she hate him to look at him with such disgust?
After they signed the divorce papers, she had been causing trouble for him. He thought that he was kind enough to hold back until now, but she even humiliated him.
Justin felt a surge of anger and grievance. He took a step forward, stared at her condescendingly, and looked her straight in the eyes.
“Anna, you’re only so arrogant to me because you’re my ex-wife, wife? Do you think that you can repeatedly challenge my bottom line just because we have been married before? Has a contractual marriage emboldened you to do whatever you want with me? Rose doesn’t even dare to treat me like this. How dare you?!” His voice was deep and low, so no one except Bella could hear what he was saying.
Despite this, Bella’s eyes turned red in anger.
Justin had never looked her in the eyes for the past three years and had crushed her arrogant self- esteem time and time again with his neglect. Even so, she had never regretted loving Justin or becoming his wife.
But at this moment, Bella started to regret her past.
Bella laughed angrily and forced herself to sweep away the hint of vulnerability in her eyes. “Rosalind doesn’t dare because she cares about you, and I dare because you no longer mean anything to me.” Justin’s brows twitched in surprise. The next second, Bella gritted her white teeth and grabbed Justin’s expensive blue tie, pulling him forward.
“Do you want me to be grateful for that marriage? Sorry, but I’m not.” Their eyes met, and only one last inch of precarious distance remained between them.
Justin felt his tie tighten. His heart shrank because of the way she looked at him with such hatred.
“To put it bluntly, I can’t bear to look back on how I got through those three years. Do you think marrying you is such an honor? Do you think that being your ex-wife is something that I can show off to others?”
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 108-Bella said, “No. You think too highly of yourself. If possible, I’d like to erase you from my life completely. If I could, I wish I had never loved you.” Justin’s pupils shrank. His soul felt shaken, and his throat, which was being strangled, felt bitter and dry.
Every word she said was more ruthless than the previous.
When he returned to his senses, Bella had already let go of his tie and walked past him.
Steven hurriedly chased after Bella. When he passed by Justin, he glared at him angrily.
He did not hear what they said to each other just now, but he believed that Justin would not say anything nice to Bella.
“Justin! Did you delete those photos? That bumpkin is so shameless! She dared to threaten me… Fortunately, you came to help me. Otherwise, our family’s reputation would be ruined.” Bethany ran over with excitement and wanted to hold Justin’s arm. She wanted to show off to everyone that she was close to her brother.
Unexpectedly, Justin was still affected by what his ex-wife said. His face was gloomy, and he glared at Bethany.
Bethany hesitated for a second and withdrew her hand sheepishly.
“Are those photos really photoshopped?” “What?” Bethany was startled.
“Otherwise, how could Anna blackmail you?” Justin exuded a strong chill in his eyes.
Bethany was stunned. She felt like Justin was not completely on her side.
His heart still seemed to favor Anna.
“I’m not blind. I saw what happened that day.” Justin looked away. “Since this incident has escalated out of control, you need to hold a press conference tomorrow night and apologize to the hotel staff.” “What?!” Bethany was shocked and furious. Her features contorted in anger. “Why?! The customer is king! I spent money in their hotel, but their service was poor, and they broke and they broke my necklace. It’s within my right to complain! So why should I apologize?!” Suddenly, the big screen on the second floor of the boutique lit up.
The surveillance footage was played on the screen, attracting everyone’s attention.
The scene showed two sexy women in designer clothes posing in front of the reflective door in the elevator of the KS World Hotel. They were none other than Bethany’s two plastic friends.
“Ugh! I want to gag. Bethany thinks she’s all that after buying this stupid necklace. She’s such a snob!” –“If it weren’t for the fact that she was generous enough to pay for us, no one would want to be friends with her.” “Don’t you think she’s such a fool? Hahahaha…” –“Hmph! It was so fun to see her frantically looking for the necklace just now! Bethany wouldn’t, in a million years, imagine that we would break her necklace and hide it in the room. Haha! Let her make a fuss. She’s the one embarrassing herself anyway!” By the end of the video, the two plastic friends were so frightened that their faces paled.
Bethany was so angry that she could breathe fire. She gritted her teeth with hatred and walked over to them step by step.
“Beth, it’s not what it seems!” The two women panicked and backed away. “Listen to our explanation! We’ve been framed!” “You two bitches! How dare you spend my money and break my things?! I’m going to rip you apart!” Bethany screamed and disregarded her image as an elite lady, rushing at her plastic friends with bared teeth and claws.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 109-Bella got into the car and said nothing the whole time.
She felt helpless, like a waterlogged robot.
When she thought of the infuriating words Justin said to her, she felt like she was drenched in ice water. Her body shook with rage.
Bella wondered why she had not noticed what a despicable and shameless person Justin was.
Sure enough, it was true that love made people blind and numb to reality.
“Ms. Bella, I have released the video as you requested. Look! Bethany and her two best friends got into a fight!” Steven quickly showed Bella the footage on his phone.
Bella raised her eyelids and saw three women beating each other up. The scene was gory.
“Tsk, tsk! Women are really ruthless when they beat other women. Ms. Salvador is quite good at fighting. She’s one against two, but she’s still undefeated. It’s a pity that she doesn’t wrestle as a sport,” Steven said with a gloating smile.
“Hmph! They’re just slapping each other and pulling each other’s hair. There’s no technique to it at all. What fun is that?” Even though she said that, her eyes did not leave the screen.
Needless to say, watching these three women clawing at each other appeased her anger.
“Ms. Bella, did Justin really delete all the photos?” Steven’s eyes turned red with anger when he thought of Justin hugging Bella’s waist so frivolously.
However, Steven thought about how Bella and Justin used to be married and figured that they had probably done more intimate things in the past three years. Steven had no right to be angry.
“He will definitely delete it. Even if he doesn’t like Bethany, he still has to take the Salvador family’s reputation into consideration. He always puts the big picture first and is ruthless when necessary.” Bella sighed softly and unlocked her phone.
She never expected that Justin would remember her password. He had probably accidentally seen it when she unlocked her phone one day and remembered it all those years.
But it did not matter if he remembered her password. He would never know the meaning behind those digits-“0923”.
That was the day Justin rescued Bella on the mountain thirteen years ago, the day they met for the first time.
Perhaps her heart was never worth anything to him.
“Ms. Bella, what should we do next? Justin destroyed those photos that we have on Bethany, so Bethany won’t give in.” Steven frowned and sighed.
Suddenly, Bella’s eyes widened. “Huh?” She saw Justin’s phone number was on her call history.
‘That sneaky bastard!’ In the evening, Justin returned to Tideview Manor.
It was raining outside. When he saw the drops of water on the car window, he felt as if he were seeing Anna’s bright and teary eyes.
However, her eyes were filled with resentment, which only worsened his mood.
Justin stretched out his neck. The neon light outside the window outlined his chiseled jaw, adding some charm to his stern face.
He raised his hand and tugged on his meticulously tied Windsor knot. The silky fabric felt like her slender waist.
That woman was getting bolder.
In the past three years of marriage, she did not even dare to hold his hand. After their divorce, she decided to provoke him in public.
She was so disrespectful!
“Mr. Salvador…” Ian, who was sitting in the passenger seat, called out to Justin timidly.
“What?” Justin was frustrated thinking about Anna, so his tone was harsh.
“Um… Ms. Bethany making a fuss in KS World Hotel has gained traction online. Netizens are now commenting on how the elites are trampling on other people’s self-esteem just because they are rich. What should we do?” “Just let it be.” “I’m afraid that Madam Shannon will complain to Chairman Gregory, and he’ll make things difficult for you.” Ian was concerned.
Justin’s eyes darkened as he sneered. “I’m not scared, so what are you afraid of?” Ian’s phone beeped.
“Mr. Salvador, here’s the surveillance footage you requested.” Justin raised his eyes and took the phone.
In the surveillance footage, he could see the confrontation between Anna and Bethany at the store. Bethany was arrogant and unrelenting. She even wanted to hit Anna, but Anna defended herself first.

The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 110-Justin raised his eyebrows. His noble and ascetic face was as cold as ice.
What he felt earlier was nothing in comparison to the rage he felt at that moment.
Justin had just returned home and changed his clothes when Gregory called him to the study.
“Sob… Daddy! You must stand up for me! I feel so wronged and miserable!” Bethany cried until her tears soaked Gregory’s shirt. Her face was covered in tears and scratch marks from the fight she had with her friends in the afternoon. The corners of her lips were also cracked, so she looked miserable.
Gregory was sitting on the sofa. Bethany had always presented herself as a well-bred lady, so when she looked so wretched, Gregory hurriedly reached out and stroked her hair to comfort her.
“Your brother is back. I’ll ask him what’s going on when he comes in.” “This matter is getting bigger now. I’ve already received several calls today asking me about Bethany, and I don’t know how to answer them.” Shannon loved her daughter, so her eyes turned red with worry. “Bethany is being criticized online. How can she possibly show herself in public in the future? What would other wealthy families in Savrow think of us?” “Shannon, don’t worry. I won’t let our daughter suffer this grievance.” Gregory frowned and looked angry.
At this time, the door opened. Justin walked in expressionlessly.
“Justin, why didn’t you deal with the video in time? It’s going viral for all the wrong reasons! Don’t you think that you’re lacking as the president of Salvador Corporation?” Gregory hugged Bethany and scolded Justin.
“Salvador Corporation has a public relations department and a legal department. Each department has its own director.” Justin’s eyes were calm, and his tone was low. “I am the president of Salvador Corporation, but I’m not a nanny. Some things aren’t under my jurisdiction, so I don’t have to intervene.” “Justin, do you think that this isn’t something you have to worry about? Bethany is your biological sister! Are you just going to watch as someone bullies your sister and ruins her reputation?” Shannon’s face was covered in tears, and she clutched her chest as if she would faint at any moment.
“Shannon, you’re weak, so don’t get too agitated.” Gregory hurriedly stood up and put his arms around Shannon’s shoulders. His gaze was tender.
It had been 20 years, but Justin still felt suffocated every time he saw Gregory and Shannon showing off their affection for each other.
Gregory had never once mentioned Justin’s mother in the past 20 years or visited her grave.
That poor woman loved him so deeply, but it was as if she had never appeared in Gregory’s life. Gregory’s indifference was more cruel than hating her.
“I’m fine, Greg.” Shannon leaned into Gregory’s embrace and coughed twice for good measure. “I was too agitated earlier and didn’t control my emotions. Justin is the president of Salvador Corporation, so he must be busy dealing with all kinds of problems every day. I shouldn’t have bothered him about this. I was just afraid that Justin still has doubts about me. After all, I’m not his birth mother… If that’s why he 1 doesn’t want to help Bethany, I don’t blame him. I can understand where he’s coming from.” Justin looked at this pretentious woman indifferently. He was tired of watching her act for 20 years.
He just wondered why Gregory was not tired of Shannon’s act.
“Shannon, don’t think too much. Whether that brat admits it or not, you are my wife, so by extension, you are his mother!” Shannon successfully provoked Gregory, who became more infuriated. He pointed at Justin’s indifferent face and said, “You’d better come up with a solution for me right away! I want all those videos and posts about Bethany to disappear by tomorrow morning. Otherwise, you’ll answer to me!” “I’d thought of the solution a long time ago and told Bethany.” Justin lowered his cold eyes.
“Dad! Justin didn’t think of a plan for me. He was just pushing me into a fire pit!” Bethany immediately became anxious when she heard her name. She stretched her neck and said, He actually wants me to apologize to that stupid housekeeper! I’m someone of status, and she’s a nobody. Why should I apologize to her?! Also, Anna came to the boutique to cause trouble today and slapped me in front of so many people. Sob, sob… I’m too embarrassed to face anyone!” Shannon and Gregory were shocked when they heard this. “What? Anna slapped you?!” “Look at the slap marks on my face. I’m telling the truth!” Bethany cried and pointed to her still- swollen face.
“How dare she! Justin, what kind of woman did you marry?” Shannon was furious when she heard that her daughter was bullied. She finally showed some viciousness as she said, “We must sue her for hitting Bethany! We can’t just let it go!” “Bethany wanted to hit Anna first. Anna was just acting in self-defense,” Justin said righteously.
“You mean, that girl really hit Bethany?” Gregory asked with gloomy eyes.
Justin acquiesced.
“Contact her immediately and ask her to apologize to Bethany! Also, why haven’t you finalized the divorce with her yet? Take some time tomorrow to go to City Hall with her to get your divorce certificate. From now on, I won’t allow you to have anything to do with that woman!” shouted.
Justin frowned slightly.
Gregory Their divorce was imminent, but after hearing this, Justin felt inexplicably uncomfortable and replied without thinking, “No.”
