Ch. 151..160

The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 151-Roza greeted some guests and brought Bella to her studio.

They were as close as sisters. Without any outsiders around, they happily chatted about everything.

Roza brought out her best tea to serve Bella and some snacks made by the top pastry chefs in the country, which the guests downstairs did not get to eat.

“Master, please taste this!” “Mm… This is an excellent tea, more precious than gold. It’s fragrant and mellow in taste. Not bad at all!” Bella sipped the tea leisurely and held the dainty teacup gracefully.

Her good form, etiquette, and in-born elegance were self-evident and something that most people could not learn.

“I’m glad you like this tea!” Roza chuckled.

Roza was usually an aloof introvert, but in front of Bella, she became a silly little girl.

Their acquaintance went back six years.

Although Roza was extremely talented in fashion design and had a lot of inspiration, she rose to prominence prematurely and became the target of public criticism.

Roza was forced to take part in a reality show that designed clothes for celebrities. However, she was humiliated by a big-name actress on the show and was criticized by the influential judges.

Later, Sharon, a global sensation and talented fashion designer, publicly spoke out for her online. Sharon criticized the ill-intentioned people on the show and exposed their true colors.

With Sharon taking the lead to defend Roza, some designers who had suffered under those judges’ criticism came forward to expose the bias and underhanded tactics in the design world. This garnered attention for Roza and allowed the public to notice her excellence as an up-and-coming designer.

“The more outstanding you are, the more you will be subjected to criticism. You will only achieve greatness if you persevere. Ms. Walker, you have a talent that amazes me. Don’t be discouraged and move forward boldly!” Sharon was like an oasis in the desert, giving Roza hope to continue in this tough industry.

Later, the designers who criticized Roza publicly apologized under the public’s pressure. However, no one believed that the designers were sincere in their apology, so they were eventually ruined. The actress who scolded Roza had numerous scandals exposed. Within a year, the actress disappeared from the entertainment industry.

“Master, you’re the genius designer, Sharon. Why don’t you disclose your true identity?” Roza asked curiously as she poured more tea for Bella.

“You’ve asked this question a hundred times already. You’re like a broken record.” Bella rubbed her temples and continued, “I just like the feeling of strategizing behind the scenes. I don’t like standing in the spotlight, and I don’t want to disrupt my peaceful life now.” “Sigh… It’s such a pity. If you told the world that you were Sharon, that bitch earlier would probably be so frightened. Her jaw would probably dislocate from gaping so hard. Then she wouldn’t dare be so rude to you.” Roza gritted her teeth in anger. “How dare she laugh at you just because she is Justin Salvador’s fiancée? She’s so arrogant!” “She’s a nobody.” Bella sipped on the tea, feeling at ease. “She’s not worthy of knowing who Sharon is.” “But why would you quarrel with that bitch? Do you have a grudge against her? Do you want me to help you deal with her?” Bella was startled, and she smiled lightly. “No, it’s okay. She’s the future wife of the Salvador Corporation’s president.” “So what? I’m your little guard dog who will bite anyone who dares to attack you!” Roza bared her little white teeth as she spoke, looking adorable.

Bella felt a little guilty at the mention of this.

Although Roza had a close relationship with Bella, she still did not know her true identity as Bella Thompson, the daughter of the richest man in Hatchbay, let alone that she was Justin’s ex-wife.

Sometimes, Bella felt like she had a split personality.

She had so many identities, and the people she knew from these identities had yet to cross paths. She had her own circle of friends and drama as each of her identities.

It was quite magical.

“Master, does your promise still count?” Roza held a heart-shaped pastry in her hands and looked at Bella eagerly.

“Of course. I always keep my word. But did you get a dance partner for me? I won’t accept it if he’s not handsome or if he can’t dance well.” Bella crossed her slender legs, looking like a mighty queen.

“I’ve prepared everything! He has long legs, sexy abs, a prominent adonis belt, and a gorgeous face. He’s absolutely delectable! I guarantee you’ll be satisfied!” The episode with Rosalind did not affect the reception.

Justin stood there with a cold face. His perfectly tailored suit outlined his muscular body, and his expensive leather shoes were proof of his stature, gaining him a lot of attention from every woman in the room.

Rosalind stared back at them with hostile eyes, looking like a dog guarding its food.

If she had not wanted Roza to design her wedding dress, she would never have brought Justin to such an occasion. That was because coming to an event like this was equivalent to throwing a slab of meat into a lion’s den.

However, Justin ignored everyone. His bottomless eyes subconsciously scanned the crowd, looking for a certain someone.

“Ah! It’s Roza!”

The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 152-Seeing Roza reappear after a while, Rosalind tugged on Justin’s sleeve nervously. “Justin, let’s go over and talk to her. You’re the president of Salvador Corporation. If you put pressure on her, she will definitely agree to design a wedding dress for me!” Justin frowned as Rosalind pulled him over.

“Ms. Walker, we came here in hopes that you could design a wedding dress for me. I will get married to Mr. Salvador next month, and we will hold a grand wedding that will be broadcast live across the country.” Rosalind leaned against Justin sweetly. She looked proud as she said, “If I wear a wedding dress designed by you, it will definitely attract the attention of people across the country. That’ll be great publicity for you. Money is not an issue as long as you agree to design it for me. We’ll try to satisfy all your requests to show our sincerity.” “Money is not an issue? Ms. Gold, you’re quite generous with your offer since you’re marrying into a wealthy family.” Roza smiled and raised a finger. “I’ll think about it for $100 million.” “What?! That’s too expensive!” Rosalind was stunned.

“Oh, didn’t you say that money is not an issue? Will $100 million scare off the future wife of Salvador Corporation’s president?” “Alright. I’m fine with $100 million.” Justin’s face was expressionless.

“Justin…” Rosalind bit her lower lip. She was so moved that she almost cried.

“You’re fine with it, but I’m not.” Roza’s smile was so cold that it could turn her breath into ice.

Justin frowned, feeling that he had been tricked.

“Although my master forgave you, I didn’t. Ms. Gold, I won’t design your wedding dress. Also, don’t even think about asking for Rozabela’s couture dresses from now on. I won’t lend them to you.” After saying that, Roza snorted and left with her chin up, not wanting to speak to them any longer.

Rosalind was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She cursed Roza in her heart, but on the surface, she looked so aggrieved, as if she had been bullied. “Justin… Did Ms. Brown tell her something? Is that why Ms. Walker is so hostile to us? If she’s upset, she can come at me. How can she use someone who doesn’t understand what’s going on to attack us?” Justin was frustrated. “When the reception is over, I’ll talk to Anna and ask her to persuade Roza to make a wedding dress for you.” “Justin, you’re so nice to me. I knew that you loved me the most!” Just when Rosalind wanted to kiss Justin, the crowd suddenly cheered enthusiastically.

The lights in the hall dimmed all of a sudden, and a bright spotlight lit up the catwalk.

An upbeat tango music played, and a handsome male dancer in a black shirt and pants appeared.

The next second, Justin’s breath hitched.

Bella, wearing a tight and sexy red dress, spun onto the stage with the rhythm. Her beautiful face and amazing figure were a sight to behold.

“OMG! Is that the same woman from just now? She looks so different in this style!” “She’s such a sexy and sultry beauty! I love her!” “Although their dance has a lot of intimate touches, their dance form is impeccable. It doesn’t look vulgar at all, but refined and artistic. It’s simply amazing!” Justin looked at his ex-wife, who was dazzling on the stage. A complex emotion was surging in his dark eyes.

He thought, ‘How does she know how to dance the tango? Isn’t she tone-deaf and uncoordinated? How could she wear such a revealing dress in front of everyone? How could she let that man hug her waist?! Does she not know what self-respect is after getting divorced?!’ Justin stared at his ex-wife’s slim waist and sexy legs, which were mostly exposed under the red dress. His eyes burned with desire.

Tango was a sultry dance.

Bella was passionate and flamboyant on the stage. Her eyes were suggestive as she swayed her body along with the male dancer.

The music also added to the energy between the dancers.

Bella wrapped her body around the male dancer like a vine. Her slender arms were also wrapped around the man’s strong waist.

Her seductive eyes inadvertently met Justin’s gaze in the audience.

He wanted to rush to the stage, push the male dancer away, and wrap her up tightly in his suit jacket.

Justin thought, ‘Even I have never been so intimate with her as her husband. How could I allow other men to touch her like that?!’

The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 153-After the dance, Bella and the male dancer held hands and took a bow.

It was not a formal stage, but their beautiful dancing elevated this private cocktail party to a high-end dance party.

Rosalind’s eyes burned with jealousy when she heard the compliments.

In the past, Rosalind was good at piano, singing, and dancing. She would win awards easily. Later, when she was abroad, she only had her mind on fooling around with men and forgot all her talents.

“Justin, don’t you think Ms. Brown is amazing? But dancing like this in public is quite vulgar, especially when she’s wearing so little… I’m embarrassed for her…” Rosalind tried to throw shade, but when she turned around, Justin was already gone.

Justin walked quickly to the corridor backstage.

No matter how much he restrained himself, he kept thinking about Anna’s sexy figure, which made his throat dry.

He tried to convince himself that he was not attracted to her. He was just angry at Anna because she kept challenging his patience and deceiving him time and time again.

Suddenly, Justin heard an excited male voice coming from the corner.

“The lady I danced with today has such a slim waist. She’s so damn hot. I’ve never touched a woman as sexy as her in my life!” This was supposed to be a compliment, but when Justin heard it, he became infuriated.

The male dancer heard the cold click of leather shoes against the marble floor coming from behind. As soon as he turned back, Justin’s fist struck his face.

“Ow!” Justin was a soldier, so he knocked down the male dancer with one punch.

The man fell to the ground and screamed. He lay there motionless and in pain.

“How dare you touch her?!” Justin smiled sinisterly and said in a cold voice, “Who do you think you are?” “You… You’re Mr. Salvador?!” The male dancer was scared out of his mind. “Aren’t you going to marry Ms. Gold?! I… I didn’t know that lady was yours too…” At the mention of Rosalind, Justin’s fist clenched again.

“Justin! What are you doing?!” Justin turned around and saw Bella and Roza approaching them. His eyes darkened.

The male dancer crawled over to them with blood flowing from his mouth.

“Mr. Salvador, don’t you think you’re going overboard by beating people up at my party for no reason?” Roza pointed at Justin’s handsome face, furious.

“He has a filthy mouth.” Justin’s eyes were cold and sharp. He clenched his fists and said, “I only punched him so that he’ll remember not to run his mouth next time.” Bella was shocked.

In her impression, Justin was always calm and collected. He would never bother to get into a conflict with people below his status. What happened today? Did he eat gunpowder for lunch?

“What’s going on?!” Roza stared at the male dancer.

“I… I didn’t mean to insult Ms. Brown… I was just too excited that I got to dance with Ms. Brown, so I called my friends to show off…” The male dancer was frightened. “I didn’t expect Mr. Salvador to hear it and punch me…” “Alright.” Bella frowned and raised her hand. “Roza, please take him to a doctor to get his injuries checked out first.” “Master, I can’t leave you here alone!” Roza glanced at Justin and whispered in Bella’s ear, “I think this man may be mentally ill. He hit this guy for no reason, so he must be a violent maniac!” “Yeah, I think so too.” Bella nodded with a cold face. “But I’m the cause of it, so I’ll solve it. Don’t worry. He won’t dare do anything to me.” The two women whispered to each other, but Justin heard every word.

His face was gloomy.

Although Roza was worried, she did not disobey her mentor’s orders and hurriedly left with the male dancer.

The corridor was quiet, and the air was oppressive.

Justin saw that Anna was still wearing that sexy red dress and thought of the male dancer’s words, feeling irritated.

He immediately strode up to her, took off his suit jacket, and handed it to her expressionlessly.

“Put it on.” Slap-!

Bella’s eyes were sharp. She raised her hand and slapped his hand away, which made his suit fall to the floor.

“Justin, what the hell are you doing? You hit someone for no reason, and you want me to wear your clothes. Are you trying to disgust me?” “Anna!” Justin’s pupils suddenly shrank.

“I know that you like cute and innocent women like Rosalind. I’ve been with you for three years and have pretended to be the goody two shoes for so long. I’ve had enough! Now that we’re divorced, you don’t have to worry about what I wear. I can do whatever I want, and it has nothing to do with you, especially when you’re about to get married to another woman!” Bella’s sharp eyes were like knives piercing into Justin’s bloodshot eyes.

“So, you’re just going to ruin yourself like this after leaving me?” Justin was so infuriated that his handsome face turned red. “You can dance, but why are you wearing so little? Don’t you have any sense of shame? You also let that man touch you!” “Haha…” Bella laughed out loud. “Mr. Salvador, do you like me?” “What nonsense are you spouting now?” Justin’s heart twitched, and his breathing hitched.

Bella took a step closer to him, raised her delicate face, and met his dumbfounded eyes.

“If you don’t like me, why the hell are you bossing me around? Or… Are you being vile and possessive because someone else is touching your ex-wife that you’ve never laid a finger on for the three years that we were married?” “Anna, do you think I’m vile?” Justin glared at her.

“Of course! Do you think that you deserve a compliment from me?” Bella’s smile disappeared. “Justin, I suggest you bring your brain out the next time you leave the house. Stop pestering me and go find your fiancée. You’re ruining yourself for getting entangled with your ex-wife behind your fiancée’s back!” After saying that, Bella turned around, and her red dress fluttered beautifully in the air.

Justin suddenly grabbed her thin wrist in desperation. Her eyes turned red from the pain, and she could not break free.

“You can vent your anger at me and come at me directly. Don’t use someone else to attack us. That’s just despicable!” “Use someone else to attack you?” Bella was startled, not knowing what he was talking about.

“Rose came here this time to ask Roza to help her design a dress, but Roza didn’t help and even made 4/4 things difficult for her! Do you dare say that you didn’t ask Roza to do this? Do you dare to say that you didn’t take this opportunity to retaliate against Rose?!”

The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 154-After Justin finished speaking, he was stunned for a moment.

He had no evidence, but he thought of Anna this way.

Justin even hoped that Anna would do this because it would show that she still cared about him.

“Justin, you think too highly of yourself.” Bella’s heart ached, but she forced herself to smile. “To be honest, I never thought about getting revenge on you. I don’t care if you marry Rosalind. Even if you follow Wyatt Thompson’s example and marry four wives, I won’t bat an eye. That’s because I think that hating you will be a waste of my time and effort.” Justin’s heart clenched. He felt like he had been punched. “Anna… You…” “Roza has orders scheduled until the end of next year. She has always upheld her principles of serving every customer equally. Even if the prime minister’s wife is here, she still has to queue up. But perhaps Roza wanted to take the opportunity to vent her anger on my behalf. But I’m not so cowardly as to use my friends to retaliate against Rosalind. If I wanted to, I would have just slapped Rosalind as many times as I liked. Is there a need to do it in such a roundabout way? You really don’t understand me at all.” Bella’s tone was derisive, and she sneered.

However, Justin felt that her eyes were so empty that he could not see a glint of light.

He could not help but feel a prick in her heart.

“Anna!” A familiar voice interrupted their stalemate.

It was Asher.

Bella took the opportunity to shake Justin’s hand off. She then ran toward Asher excitedly.

Asher gently held his sister in his arms. “Sorry, I’m late. I got caught up at work.” “It’s okay.” Bella sniffed. Her eyes felt a little sore.

“Did he make things difficult for you?” Asher looked at Bella worriedly and glared at Justin, who was frozen in place.

Bella shook her head. “Let’s go back.” Justin was stunned for a while. Then he quickly followed them out.

Outside the gate, Steven was waiting for Asher and Bella next to the Rolls-Royce.

“Ugh, my feet hurt from wearing these heels. Sneakers are still more comfortable.” Bella pouted at Asher coquettishly.

“Steve, take out the shoes I prepared for Bella.” Steven hurriedly took out the sneakers from the trunk of the car and placed them next to Bella’s delicate feet.

At this time, Justin arrived at the gate.

Justin watched helplessly as Asher kneeled on one knee and took off his ex-wife’s high heels. Asher then slid the sneakers on her feet and helped tie her shoelaces.

Asher was so attentive to Anna, even more than a father would care about his daughter.

Bella stuck her little hand into Steven’s suit pocket and took out a piece of chocolate, smiling sweetly after taking a bite.

“Let’s go home.” Asher led her into the car, and the luxury car drove off.

Justin suddenly felt as if his heart had been hollowed out. He felt an unprecedented sense of loss.

His ex-wife, who had lived like a widow when she was married to him, was treated like a princess by the CEO of KS Group.

Asher was such a formidable character in the business world, but he was willing to humble himself for the one he loved. The love in his eyes was so sincere that it overflowed.

True love is not wanting one’s lover to bend down to wear her shoes.

Justin did not know why he felt so uncomfortable when he saw his ex-wife being pampered by another man.

In the evening, Rosalind followed Justin back to Tideview Manor with the excuse of visiting Shannon and Gregory.

“Justin, why did you suddenly disappear just now? I panicked when I was left there alone…” In the back seat, Rosalind hugged Justin and rested her head on his shoulder.

“Rose.” Justin slowly pulled his arm out. His voice had a hint of coldness as he said, “I hope that you won’t cause trouble for Anna when you see her again, especially if she isn’t hostile toward you.” “Justin… Do you think that I’m bullying her?” Rosalind’s eyes turned red instantly. She almost cried. “Didn’t you?”

The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 155-“I…” “Anna wouldn’t offend anyone unless they offended her first. She didn’t make things difficult for today.” you Justin’s cold eyes fell on Rosalind’s pale face. “No matter how much you resent her, she and I are already divorced. We will have nothing to do with each other after Grandpa’s birthday, as soon as we finalize the divorce. I hope you will stop finding fault with her. This is my only request to you.” Justin never spoke to Rosalind again until the Maybach drove into Tideview Manor.

Rosalind put up with her fiancé’s indifference and secretly cursed Anna.

“I’m going upstairs to change.” Justin left with a gloomy expression.

Rosalind gritted her teeth unwillingly. She did not feel that she had done anything wrong.

She thought, ‘Anna was the one who robbed me of my marriage and hogged my man for three whole years! I won’t be able to get rid of the resentment in my heart even if I kill that bitch! So what if I bullied her? Why is Justin protecting her so much?!’ Half an hour later, Justin, who had changed into loungewear, walked down the stairs, followed by Wilma.

While he was on the stairs, Justin heard the laughter of three women coming from the living room.

Bethany said, “It’s time to hire a new chef. The food at home recently has been terrible since Anna left! That bumpkin has excellent cooking skills, so she wasn’t all useless.” Rosalind asked, “Did Anna cook for you all every day?” Bethany replied, “Of course! What else can a bumpkin like her do? She’s blessed enough to marry into our family, so she should serve us well! Do you know what the servants at home say about her behind her back? They say that she’s not really the young madam of this house, but a high-end nanny. She has the title of lady boss, but she’s actually doing a maid’s work!” Justin’s eyes turned cold, and he clenched his fists.

Shannon chimed in. “Hah! I thought she would give up and get a divorce within a year, especially with Justin giving her the cold shoulder and everyone in the family bullying her. Unexpectedly, she endured such humiliation and worked like a cow for three years. To be honest, I wouldn’t have been able to endure it if it were me. I don’t know how she can bear it.” Bethany said, “Thankfully, Rose came back. Otherwise, that bitch will probably keep staying here forever. Hmph! She’s so shameless!” Justin could not bear listening to this anymore. His voice was so loud that he almost growled. “Have you said enough?!” The air in the living room instantly dropped to a freezing point.

“Justin, we…” Rosalind hurriedly stood up and tried to smooth things over.

“You guys took advantage of Anna, yet you’re still badmouthing her.” Before Rosalind could finish speaking, Justin interrupted her. He was exuding such a terrifying chill that she shuddered.

Shannon and Bethany were also frightened.

“Justin, what are you talking about? We…'” “You guys enjoyed Anna’s contribution, but you didn’t appreciate it and even laughed at her. Do you really think that I don’t have a temper?” Justin’s cold glare was intimidating.

The three women thought they had misheard him.

Justin had been married to Anna for three years, but he had never stood up for her. He neglected her, so everyone in the Salvador family treated Anna as a pushover.

After their divorce, Justin seemed closer to Anna.

The three women paled, and the servants held their breaths.

“Even if Anna and I are divorced, she is still my ex-wife. I won’t allow anyone to insult her like that, especially in this house.” Justin clenched his teeth and frowned. “As the wife and daughter of the chairman of Salvador Corporation, I advise you two to stop being so distasteful. You’ll just end up embarrassing yourselves!” After saying that, Justin went back upstairs, furious.

The three women were left in the living room, embarrassed, ashamed, and indignant. Shannon’s face was red from suppressing her anger.

“What are you all looking at? Get back to work!” Bethany yelled, venting her anger on the servants.

Rosalind had not returned to her senses because she had never seen Justin lose his temper like this.

“Hah! Look, Rose. This is the man you are going to marry in the future. Before you marry him, he’s already protecting another woman in front of you!” Shannon’s lips twitched in anger.

Rosalind was vexed, so she ran after Justin. However, Wilma stopped her.

“Sorry, Ms. Gold. The young master is in a bad mood now, so he won’t be coming down to have dinner with you. You can eat by yourself.”

The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 156-In the study, Justin sat on the sofa, rubbing his throbbing temples. He leaned forward with his elbows resting on his knees. The muscles on his shoulders were shaking, and he looked like he was in pain.

On the way home, Justin’s head had already started to hurt. After hearing Shannon, Bethany, and Rosalind badmouthing Anna, the pain became even more unbearable.

He thought, ‘Anna has the title of lady boss, but she’s actually doing a maid’s work… Even if Anna is useless, it’s not their place to badmouth her!’ “Master! Do you have another headache? I’ll get you some medicine!” Wilma hurriedly found the painkillers from the drawer, poured him a glass of water, and handed it to Justin.

After taking the medicine, Justin felt the tension in his head ease. His face also relaxed a little.

“Master, it’s not good for your health to take painkillers all the time. I remember that your headaches improved a lot after the young madam did the acupuncture treatment. Do you want to ask the young madam to come back and check?” Wilma advised softly.

“Wilma.” Justin’s eyes were slightly red, and his throat felt clogged. “Did they often badmouth Anna before? They said that Anna had been cooking for the family for the past three years… Is it true?” “Yes, Young Master. I told you before that the young madam is very hard-working, but you said she was just putting up an act. But who in their right mind would pretend day after day for three whole years? Even if she was pretending, I’d give her a thumbs-up for being so persistent!” Justin pursed his pale and thin lips.

“When the young madam first moved in, her cooking was just average. She humbly asked me for advice and asked me to teach her. But I told her that the servants and cooks would do all the work. As the young madam, she only needs to enjoy being waited on. But she didn’t. She said that she wanted to cook for her husband. Since she couldn’t help you with your work, she wanted to take care of your meals and daily needs. At first, the young madam kept coughing when she smelled the fumes while cooking, so she had to wear a mask in the kitchen. Later, she gradually got used to it. She would already be in the kitchen cooking breakfast every morning before I woke up.” Justin thought, ‘Cough? Why cough? Is she allergic to smoke?’ He felt suffocated. At this moment, even the painkillers could not stop his head from throbbing.

Wilma sighed indignantly. “I’ve had enough of Shannon and Bethany. Young Madam has silently sacrificed so much for this family, but they’re so ungrateful and even laugh at her. It’s too much! Young Master, although I really hope that you can get back together, sometimes I feel bad for the young madam for suffering so much here… I just hope that she can live with a better family where she won’t be bullied or slandered in the future.” Verbal abuse often hurts the most.

Justin felt as if he had been hit in the head. His eyebrows furrowed tightly.

After a few days, nothing eventful happened.

Nigel’s birthday was approaching.

Thinking that she would soon finalize the divorce, Bella had mixed feelings in her heart.

When she and Justin got married, they did not have a wedding ceremony or official announcement. They just went to City Hall to get their marriage license. It was so hasty that they did not even have a meal together before or after.

The marriage license had the only photo of the two of them. In the photo, Bella flashed a happy smile and leaned toward Justin.

But there was no smile on the man’s face. He looked so stiff, as if he had been photoshopped into the picture.

At that time, Bella thought things would get better after marriage. As long as she worked hard enough, Justin would slowly fall in love with her.

However, she finally understood that was not the case.

Love was the only thing in the world that did not work on merit.

She thought, ‘Justin, it wasn’t that I didn’t try hard enough. We were just too far apart.’ Steven placed the folder in front of her. Bella’s eyes lit up. She hurriedly picked it up and looked through it.

Then she picked up her fountain pen and moved her delicate hands over the document, like a big boss.

“Yes, Miss.” Steven felt nervous for his colleagues on the event planning team.

“Understood. We won’t lose to Justin Salvador!” Steven clenched his fists.

Bella sneered. “I just don’t like losing. It has nothing to do with Justin. But since he wants to compete with me, I’ll show him the cruel reality.” At this time, Bella’s phone rang. Sasha was calling.

“Aunt Sasha, what’s wrong?” “Bella! I did it!” Bella was confused. “Huh?”

The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 157-Sasha sounded excited as she said, “I managed to steal that antique rosewood chair that you wanted from your father!” “Aunt Sasha, thanks for your hard work! I’ll definitely treat you to a meal the next time we meet!” Bella rubbed her hands excitedly.

“Hehe, it’s not a big deal! I’m just glad that you’re happy!” “But… What will happen to you if Wyatt finds out?” Bella could not help but worry about Sasha.

Sasha said courageously, “Well, I have no dependents, so I guess I can leave this world without worries. If anything happens to me, just remember to buy me a nice coffin.” Bella was speechless.

After a busy day, Steven drove Bella back to the villa.

Bella kicked off her high heels, put on her soft velvet red slippers, stretched her back, and prepared to go upstairs to take a bubble bath.

“Let me draw the bath for you.” Steven hurriedly rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt.

“No need. I can do it myself. Just prepare some dinner.” Bella smiled tiredly.

“Okay. What do you want to eat?” “Hmm… Spicy instant ramen!” Steven was speechless. He was not a fan of spicy instant ramen, but Bella loved it.

Bella pouted her lips and said, “Actually, I also want a doner kebab, but there are no kebab shops nearby.” “Do you want to eat first before taking a bath?” “Nah, I’m too tired. If I don’t take a shower now, I probably won’t even have the energy to eat.” Bella yawned and went upstairs to shower.

Steven tidied up the living room before he put on an apron and gloves.

As soon as he finished making the noodles, the doorbell rang.

Asher and Axel had keys to this villa, so they would never ring the doorbell.

Steven thought, ‘It’s so late. Who would it be? Who else knew that Bella lived here?’ He frowned and walked to the entrance to press on the video intercom.

The next second, he gasped.

He saw Ryan’s handsome face on the screen.

“Hello! Is anyone home?” Ryan looked around.

“Mr. Hoffman, why are you here?” Steven instantly became alert and stared at him coldly.

“I followed you here, of course!” Ryan suddenly smiled brightly.

“When?!” “I followed you from the hotel. Tsk tsk… You’re so incompetent as a secretary. You didn’t even realize that someone was stalking your boss. You need to improve your observation skills.” Steven took a deep breath to calm himself. He said in a cold voice, “Ms. Bella is sleeping now, so she won’t see any guests. Please leave!” “The lights upstairs are still on. Who are you trying to deceive?” Ryan blinked. “I’m here to deliver a gift. You should at least let me in.” “Steve, who are you talking to?” At this moment, Bella was dressed in a pastel-pink silk robe. Her long hair was tightly wrapped in a white towel. She walked downstairs, feeling relaxed from her hot bath.

“Um…” Steven did not know what to say.

Bella walked over, put her pretty face in front of the screen, and raised her eyebrows. “Oh, it’s you.” “Anna! It’s me!” Ryan’s eyes lit up with excitement when he heard her sweet voice.

“What’s going on?” “Anna, I brought you a gift. I didn’t get to see you during the day, so I wanted to give it to you in person tonight!” “Mr. Hoffman, I made it clear to you before that I wouldn’t accept your gifts. But I appreciate your kindness.” Bella rejected him without hesitation.

“I purposely flew to Sentania to find a crystal artwork made by the famous sculptor, LAN. I got it with great difficulty…” ‘LAN?!’ Bella licked her lips and pressed the button to open the gate.

Steven held his forehead and was speechless.

He thought, ‘Hmph! This guy really knows what Bella likes!’

The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 158-The door opened.

Ryan quickly jumped in, as if he were afraid that Bella would change her mind.

“Sigh… It’s not easy coming into your house. The door ticket is quite expensive.” At this moment, Ryan spotted the woman standing under the light, wrapped in a silk bathrobe. The robe hung loosely around her graceful figure and was tied at her slender waist. Her cheeks were rosy from the bath. Ryan could not help but ogle at her.

“Mr. Hoffman, where do you think you’re looking?” Steven’s expression was cold, and his tone was hostile.

“Everyone has a love for beauty. I’m simply appreciating this top-notch art of God. It’s pure admiration, nothing else.” Ryan’s eyes squinted when he smiled.

Steven thought, ‘Damn! This is the first time I’ve heard someone explain their lewd gaze in such a refined way!’ “Is this LAN’s work?” Bella stared at the box that Ryan was holding.

“Yes. I bought two of them. One is for Justin’s grandfather, and the other is especially for you.’ ]] Ryan’s eyes sparkled with enthusiasm. “Anna, LAN only sells ten handmade works to the public year. Do you know how rare they are?” Bella coughed slightly. “Um… Have you eaten? If not, do you want to join us?” “I haven’t! I have been waiting in front of your hotel since 5:00 p.m. and haven’t even had a sip of water. I’m absolutely starving right now!” Ryan’s voice trembled with excitement.

Steven rolled his eyes. ‘Look at this shameless guy! He’s really making himself at home…’ “Steve, will you prepare another bowl of spicy instant ramen for Mr. Hoffman? Make it extra spicy.” Bella carefully took the box from Ryan’s arms and gave instructions as she walked to the living room.

“Spicy instant ramen?!” Ryan was so frightened that his face turned pale.

Also, extra spicy?

Ryan thought, ‘Does she want to kill me?’ “Mr. Hoffman, you don’t seem satisfied with our hospitality.” Steven saw Ryan’s expression and took the opportunity to tease him. “Oh, right. The ‘Prince of Savrow’ only eats at the best fine-dining restaurants. You must not be used to the ‘peasant food’ that we eat.” “No! Who said that? Don’t spread rumors about me. I’ll eat it!” Ryan was worried and said with a wry smile, “But can you make it non-spicy? Just a normal instant ramen will do.” The more he spoke, the quieter his voice became. Ryan looked so aggrieved.

Bella turned to look at him and chuckled. Her face was rosy, and her eyes were curved into little crescents as she smiled.

“Sure, whatever you want.” Ryan’s breath hitched, and a brilliant pink firework exploded in his mind.

He finally understood what it meant to be enchanted by someone.

Steven went to prepare dinner, while Bella and Ryan sat in the living room admiring LAN’s artwork.

Bella’s beautiful and slender hands caressed the crystal statue that was shaped like an opened folding fan. The statue was made of a single piece of white crystal, but the carving was so smooth that it looked like it was dynamic.

“Wow… It’s so beautiful…” Bella sighed and felt like her soul had been purified.

She carefully picked up the crystal fan from the holder. Ryan widened his eyes in admiration.

Her small and slender hands were even more beautiful than the carefully crafted crystal. At this moment, Ryan was no longer staring at the crystal artwork.

“Anna, do you like it?” Ryan rested his chin on his hand and swooned over her.

“Of course, I like it! LAN is the contemporary artist that I admire the most. Her works are stunning.” Bella liked it so much that she gaped.

Ryan said, “Me too…” What he wanted to add was, “I like you.” “Thank you for thinking of me when you buy this, Mr. Hoffman.” Bella suddenly looked at him seriously. “But I won’t accept a gift for no reason. You must have spent a lot of manpower and money to get this treasure, so name your price. I’ll buy it from you.” “Tsk! Anna, I’ll get mad if you want me to accept your money. It pains my heart so much.” Ryan pouted and rubbed his chest.

“I really like LAN’s work. I wanted to take the time to go to Sentania to buy a piece this year, but I never got around to it. This gift really touched my heart, so I think it’s better if I pay you so that you won’t have wasted your trip. That way, I won’t feel bad for accepting such a precious gift. It’s a win- win.” Bella smiled lightly. “Besides, I really don’t like owing people.” “No, no… I will never accept your money!” “Then why don’t you name a condition? I’ll agree to it as long as it’s within my capabilities.” When Ryan heard this, he grinned happily, showing off his pearly whites. He suddenly leaned toward Bella and asked, “It’s Grandpa Nigel’s birthday next week. Why don’t you attend it with me?”

The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 159-Bella said, “No, think of another condition.” “But you just promised me!” Ryan raised his eyebrows and looked anxious.

“I really can’t go with you.” Bella looked at him sternly. “I promised Grandpa Nigel that I would spend his birthday with him as his granddaughter-in-law. After his birthday, I won’t have anything to do with the Salvador family anymore. If I attend his birthday party with another man, I’m afraid Grandpa Nigel will feel uncomfortable. I just want Grandpa Nigel to be happy on his 80th birthday. After all, I won’t be spending much time with him anymore.” As she spoke, a trace of sadness flashed across her beautiful eyes.

“Anna, you’re such a good person. I think that Justin is too blind to have missed out on you.” Ryan sighed.

But then Ryan thought, ‘If my best friend wasn’t so blind, how could I get the chance to find this hidden treasure? Oh, Justin… Your loss is my gain! Your blindness is the reason I’ll be happy for the rest of my life!’ “So, tell me another condition.” Bella touched the crystal artwork with her fingertips. She liked it so much that she could not put it down.

“Then, can you please change the way you address me from now on? I don’t want you to call me Mr. Hoffman.” Ryan batted his long eyelashes pleadingly.

“That’s it? You know, it’s rare for me to owe favors.” “I’m just happy that you let me stay for dinner.” Ryan looked at her adoringly, seizing every opportunity to convey his love for her.

“From now on, I’ll call you Ryan. Is that okay?” Bella asked.

“Of course! Ryan, it is!” Ryan’s heart throbbed with joy.

He just felt that he had taken a big step forward to close the gap between them. To him, Anna saying his name was equivalent to her calling him “babe”.

“Ms. Bella, your noodles are ready.” Steven came over wearing an apron. He was so gentle to Bella, but he was mean to Ryan. “I’ve also cooked one bowl for him, extra spicy.” Steven thought, ‘I hope the spice kills him!’ “Anna, don’t you think it’s inconvenient for you to be living with a male nanny? I have an old maid who has been working in my house for the past fifteen years. I can ask her to work for you. She’s hard- working and efficient. Her cooking is also delicious. I grew up eating her food.” Ryan glanced sideways at Steven, acting like a jealous sidepiece who had just gained attention.

Steven was so angry that he clutched his apron. ‘How dare this man suggest this?! He’s not even Bella’s boyfriend yet!’ “Steve and I grew up together. He’s mine.” Bella’s beautiful eyes dimmed, and her voice became cold. “Mr. Hoffman, don’t you think that you’re overstepping your bounds?” Steven felt a surge of warmth in his heart. ‘I knew that Bella would be on my side!’ Ryan almost vomited blood from his broken heart.

He thought, ‘Anna grew up with this male nanny? Is he her childhood sweetheart?! Why is Asher Thompson so generous as not to bury this man alive and even allow him to stay with his girlfriend?!’ “You can head to the dining table first. I’ll put the artwork upstairs and be right back.” Bella put the statue back in the box and went upstairs happily with her new gift.

Ryan looked at the woman, who was tiptoeing briskly like a little butterfly, and felt a surge of desire in his heart. He could not help but snap a photo of her back.

This photo looked like a work of art even when he had just casually taken it.

At this time, a message popped up on his screen.

[Justin: I’m in a bad mood. Let’s go out and have a drink.] Ryan suddenly felt smug and sent him the photo he had just taken.

Two seconds later, Justin called Ryan.

“Hello?” Ryan turned around and answered the call, lowering his voice.

Justin’s voice was cold and dark, as if he came from hell. “Are you with Anna at this hour?” “I am with Anna right now, at her house too.” Ryan had to show off to Justin.

“Where is her house?!” Justin growled.

“What?! You don’t even know where your ex-wife lives? Oh no, I can’t tell you this. She clearly doesn’t want you to bother her if she doesn’t tell you.” “Ryan, I’ll only ask you this once more. Where is she staying?” Justin’s tone was murderous.

“Hehe…” Ryan covered his mouth and snickered. “I’m not telling you!”

The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 160-Twenty minutes later, Justin rushed over to Bella’s villa.

He lowered the window and looked at the warm lights inside. When he thought of Ryan and Anna together at this hour, Justin felt that his heart was stuffed with cotton.

Justin frowned and clutched his phone in his sweaty palms.

On his phone screen, Anna was wearing a sexy silk robe, showing off her perfect curves.

In the past, Anna would only wear loose cotton nightdresses, which looked like maternity clothes that did not show off her figure at all.

Now that they were divorced, she completely let loose and transformed into a sexy temptress, seducing men everywhere she went.

Justin’s chest heaved as he lowered his eyes to look at the photo again. Then he reached out and tugged on his meticulously knotted tie.

He felt a little too warm.

In the villa, Ryan’s face turned green when he saw Bella slurping the spicy instant ramen.

He was raised in a wealthy household with a health-conscious mother who doted on him. Ryan drank his first sip of Coke when he was 15 years old and ate his first bite of fried chicken at 18 years old.

A high-born man like Ryan had never been exposed to commoner food like instant ramen.

“Aren’t you going to eat it? It won’t taste good if it gets cold.” Bella asked casually.

“I… I’m just so happy that I’m at a loss for words…” Ryan held a fork and smiled dryly.

“Really? It’s just a bowl of noodles. If you like it that much, I have a box of it. You can take it back when you leave.” “No, no… It’s okay!” Ryan gritted his teeth and bit the bullet. ‘This is just another hurdle to chase my future wife!’ Thus, he picked up his fork, stared at the red noodles, and took a big mouthful.

“Cough cough cough cough cough…” Ryan choked on the mouthful of chili pepper that went straight down his throat, making his eyes water and his tongue numb.

He glared at Steven fiercely. Steven had such innocent puppy-dog eyes, but he had an evil smile that revealed his bad intentions.

“You can’t eat spicy food? You should’ve told me earlier… Is it too spicy?” Bella thoughtfully poured a glass of water for Ryan. At this moment, the doorbell rang.

“Why do we have so many guests tonight? I’ll go check it out.” Steven walked to the entrance and pressed on the video intercom.

The moment Justin’s handsome face appeared on the screen, Steven took a step back and looked stunned.

“I’m looking for Anna.” “Steve, who is it?” At this time, Bella and Ryan, who was still choking with a red face, walked out.

When the two of them saw the man on the intercom, they were both stunned.

“Why is he here? Did you tell him?” Bella reacted quickly and glared at Ryan.

“Ahem… Anna… Ahem… I had no choice. That jerk Justin threatened me!” Ryan had tears in her eyes. He clutched his chest and still had not recovered from the intake of so much spice. “He said… Ahem… He said that if I don’t tell him where you live, he’ll cut off all ties with me and…” “What else did he say?” Bella frowned.

“He also said… Ahem… He’ll delay finalizing your divorce for as long as possible. That way, Asher and I won’t be able to be with you.” Bella thought, ‘Justin, you’re so despicable!’ Bella’s eyes were red with fury. She clenched her fists and rushed over to the intercom. She pulled Steven behind her and said coldly into the intercom, “Who told you to show up at my door? Leave now! Otherwise, I’ll call security!” “Anna, come out.” Justin frowned slightly. His tone was a little irritable.

Bella sneered. “Who are you to tell me what to do?” “Ryan, come out now!” Justin shouted at Ryan. His charming eyes were bloodshot.

“No way!” Ryan knew that his best friend was a good fighter. At that moment, he was terrified for his life.

“Ryan Hoffman!” “Ryan is my guest. He came here to give me a gift. Since I accepted his gift, there’s no reason for me to kick him out.” Bella’s voice was deep as she said, “Mr. Salvador, you’re not welcome here. Please leave!” Justin’s eyes were burning with rage. As soon as he opened his mouth, Bella had already turned off the intercom.
