Ch. 581..590
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 581-Ryan held Carrie and got into the backseat of his car while Yasmin got into the driver’s seat. The luxury car pulled out of Tideview Manor.
Ryan continued to hold Carrie in the car, gently stroking her cool, silky hair. His heart ached for her. He originally came to find Justin for a drink, but he unexpectedly walked into such a commotion as soon as he entered the door.
Ryan recalled Linny’s words with a heavy heart as he looked at the scars on Carrie’s arm. His eyes were filled with anger. The blood in his veins appeared to solidify into icy, sharp blades that pierced his lungs, causing vivid and intense pain throughout his body.
The pain he felt was truly unprecedented.
His past emotional trauma with Bella left him deeply hurt. However, that pain was nothing compared to the heartache he felt at that moment.
Ryan took a deep breath to calm himself and rested his chin on Carrie’s head. He slowly closed his eyes, which were reddened with anger.
He thought to himself, ‘Carrie, I said I would protect you, and I have always kept my promises.” “Mr. Hoffman, where are we heading next?” Yasmin asked softly, looking at Ryan through the rearview mirror with her beautiful eyes.
The question appeared to have caught Ryan off guard and left him. lost in thought.
Even though he had just told Bethany that he was going to take Carrie away, it was not possible for him to take this respectable young woman home. Justin would skin him alive if he found out.
“Carrie, should I take you to Justin? Or should I take you to see your sister-in-law? You can stay with her tonight.” Ryan asked softly, lowering his long lashes.
Carrie furrowed her brow and reached to cover her left ear, not giving any response.
“Carrie? Carrie?” Ryan called her several times, but she was unresponsive, as if she had not heard him at all.
She kept crying out, “It hurts… It hurts… “Where does it hurt?” Carrie raised her eyes slowly, Bethany’s palm print still visible on her cheek.
When their eyes met, her doe-like eyes, soaked with tears, shimmered with a captivating radiance that stirred something in him.
“Ryan, I’m sorry… I realize you are speaking to me, but I’m sorry, I can’t hear you…” “Can’t hear? What do you mean you can’t hear me?!” Ryan asked urgently.
Carrie slowly opened the hand that had been covering her left ear in front of him. There was a trace of blood in the center of her palm.
Ryan inhaled sharply. He felt a spasm of pain seize his chest, and his Change S thoughts were completely scrambled. “Yasmin, go to the hospital right away!” 374 Back in Crescent Bay, Justin was led to the room where he used to reside.
Nigel, Matt, Bella, and the personal doctor were all there, including lan, who had already gotten off work for the day.
lan had hurried over without even changing out of his pajamas in the bitter cold after learning that Justin was injured.
The scene became increasingly humorous as lan stood in front of these well-dressed people. He looked so at home in Crescent Bay..
The five people stood around Justin and stared at him speechlessly.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 582-Bella could no longer contain her frustration anymore. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.
She confronted Justin in front of Nigel. “What are you staring at? Don’t you realize the extent of your injuries? Hurry up and take off your clothes!” “In front of so many people?” Justin asked with a hesitant expression on his face.
“What’s the matter? You’re a grown man. What are you afraid of? Is there something on your body that other men don’t have? Or perhaps there’s something other men have that you don’t.” Bella’s beautiful eyes were filled with impatience when she saw how shy he was.
lan shuddered and thought to himself, ‘The young madam is unrelenting!’ In the past, Bella was always gentle with Justin. Now, it was completely different. She was more sharp-tongued.
Justin raised his pale but handsome face. His charming eyes were filled with deep affection as he stared unwaveringly at Bella. He said with a bitter smile, “I didn’t mean that… I just think applying some medicine is a simple matter. There’s no need to make such a fuss with so many people. It’s enough to have you by my my side.”.
Bella’s beautiful eyes widened slightly, and she clenched her fingers in embarrassment and annoyance.
Justin was truly shameless!
Nigel let out a cough. “Perhaps Justin has a point. We’ve all gathered here in a hurry, and frankly, there’s nothing we can do to help. So let’s have Dr. Hunt and Bella stay here. Bella also has some medical knowledge and can assist Dr. Hunt if necessary. The rest of us should step aside.” The old man indeed had the foresight to set things up for his grandson.
“You’re right. Bella’s got some medical knowledge too. She’s been by my side looking after me lately,” Justin acknowledged.
Justin gave Bella a deep look, his smile growing more pronounced.” So, Dr. Hunt, you can leave the medicine here and take the night off. I only need Bella around.” Everyone turned their gaze toward Bella, each with an intriguing smile on their faces. Bella was so mad that she almost slapped Ju Eventually, Nigel and the others left, leaving Bella alone wit The room fell into an eerie silence.
“Take off your shirt.” Bella sighed heavily as she instructed with a cold tone.
“Okay.” Justin complied and took off his shirt without saying a word. When he tried to remove the shirt that was torn to pieces by the whip, he inadvertently moved too vigorously, causing a pull on the wounds. at his back. The pain caused him to wince and groan in pain.
Justin had done this intentionally. In reality, this slight pain did not bother him at all, being a seasoned soldier who had faced countless bloody battles.
Since he knew he could not regain Bella’s love at the moment, it would be good to gain a little sympathy from her..
“Don’t move. I’ll help you.” Feeling anxious, Bella firmly pressed down.
on his hand.
Justin’s heart skipped a beat as he placed his hand on top of Bella’s.
The warmth of his palm gradually seeped into her skin and into the depths of her heart, like soft ripples.
“Alright, I’ll listen to you.” Bella was slightly stunned. She pursed her red lips and withdrew her hand from his large palm. “I have nothing to do with you. Why do you listen to me? Lie down.” Justin calmly turned over and laid face down on the bed.
Bella noticed that his shirt was stained red with blood. Some he gruesome wounds had already scabbed over and adhered to the fabric. Seeing this made her heart clench, and her eyes turned more crimson than the blood he shed.
“What’s wrong? Did my injuries frighten you?” Justin asked with concern after noticing her hesitation.
“It’s nothing. Stop moving around.” Bella took a deep breath, picked up the scissors from the bedside, and carefully cut away the fabric clinging to the wounds on Justin’s back.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 583-Suddenly, Justin’s eyes darkened with a hint of red.
At this moment, Bella once again gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity, causing his heart to skip a beat.
She took the disinfectant and ointment from the medical kit left by Dr. Hunt and skillfully cleaned his wounds.
“Bella,” Justin called out to her softly.
Bella maintained her elegant composure but applied the ointment with a bit more force as a warning.
Justin felt the increased pain and furrowed his brow, but he persisted. “Bella, you remind me of someone, an old acquaintance.” Bella was earnestly tending to his wounds and casually asked, “Who?” “I don’t know.” “Don’t know? How is that possible?” “Yeah, how is it possible? But I really don’t know.” Justin laid on his side. His misty, starry eyes were dazed as he stared at the moon outside, lost in his memories.
Before him was a determined and stubborn woman.
“Back then, when I was a soldier in the peacekeeping force, I met her on the battlefield.” Bella’s hand, which was gripping the sterilized cotton, trembled Chap 3 violently at Justin’s words..
Her heartbeat intensified dramatically at that moment, and her face.
was pale with fear.
The room was so tranquil that she could hear her heart beating.
loudly. If this continued, she was afraid that she would reveal her identity with her abnormal reactions.
Fortunately, Justin had his back turned to her, so he could not see her currently exposed expression.
“That time, our brigade received the impossible mission of rescuing hostages trapped in a terrorist hub in Kridor. We had to transfer them to a safe house and escort them to the embassy in East Kridor.” He continued. “We had less than a hundred soldiers, but we attempted to take down a well-armed terrorist organization equipped with heavy firearms. Honestly, it was a suicide mission. At that time, I had no desires or attachments, so I never thought about coming back alive.” Justin laughed self-deprecatingly. He had a bitter smile as he continued, “If it weren’t for encountering that little dove, I think I wouldn’t have lived until now. She did her best to pull me back to the camp, and if it weren’t for her encouragement, I would have given up.” “Little… Dove?” Bella’s voice trembled.
“Yeah. I don’t know the name of the girl who saved me. She was wearing a white coat at the time and wore a mask that covered most of her face, only revealing a pair of beautiful and bright eyes. She was also a medical staff member, so I simply gave her a nickname.” thatike that nickname, Bella thought.ht THE her h B so woke up from my coma, she had already left the camthe camp.

If you had found her, who knows? You might have had a fling in the army back then,” Bella chuckled coldly.
“Bella, please don’t mock my lifesaver like this.” Justin raised his eyebrows slightly and suddenly became serious. “Although I only had a brief encounter with the little dove, she holds an irreplaceable place in my heart. I swear, my feelings for her are only gratitude and respect. There aren’t any romantic feelings between us. You can beat me, scold me, or trample my self-esteem into pieces, but I hope you can respect her.”
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 584-Bella was stunned. Her erimson lips parted slightly, and her heart swelled in her chest for a moment.
She had thought that she was the only one. She thought that the shared hardships and life-and-death experiences on the battlefield were etched into her heart alone. Little did she know that Justin had never forgotten her and had been searching for her. He had never given up on his pursuit.
If it were any other woman, considering his capabilities, it would be impossible for her to remain untraceable for so many years.
Unfortunately, the little dove he desperately searched for was none other than “Anna Brown”, the young heiress of KS Group who once married him.
After parting ways with Justin at Kridor, Bella erased all traces of he whereabouts. Moreover, she had used a false identity when working with Doctors without Borders at the time. At that time, she wanted to avoid her father discovering her whereabouts and forcibly bringing her back to Hatchbay.
Her mischievous and cunning nature, coupled with her many tricks, made it impossible for Justin to locate her, despite his extraordinary abilities.
“Bella, why aren’t you saying anything? Was I too harsh just now?” When Justin noticed that Bella had kept silent, he panicked. He softened his tone and spoke gently. “I apologize if I misunderstood you. I was just eager to express my stance. The little dove is my lifesaver, and I truly have no inappropriate intentions toward her.” Upon hearing these words, Bella’s almond eyes darkened, and her lips. curled coldly. “Indeed, at that time, you were passionately in love with Rosalind. To be with her, you had repeatedly argued with your grandfather. You even neglected everything for her, becoming depressed.” “How could you spare a thought for another woman in your eyes at that time? Even if it was the little dove who saved your life, you wouldn’t have regarded her as a woman, would you?” Each word carried a sting as it touched on the sensitive topic, piercing Justin’s heart.
Unable to bear it any longer, Justin abruptly sat up from the bed, startling Bella with a soft exclamation.
Immediately, their eyes met, his gaze burning with intensity and entwining with hers.
Bella took a breath, and the cotton in her hand fell off.
Justin seized the opportunity to clasp her hand tightly. The f his grip caused her delicate fingers to gradually redden under the pressure.
“Justin! What are you doing? It hurts!” “Bella, I’ve indeed made too many mistakes in the past, and I regret it vvery much. I’ve been repenting and constantly trying to find a way to make amends with you. I know you won’t forgive me easily or accept rme. So, I’m prepared to pursue you forever, until the day my heart stoops beating.” Chapte Justin’s voice was dry, and a tinge of painful determination surfaced in his eyes. “You chased after me for thirteen years, and I’m ready to chase after you for the rest of my life.” Justin continued, “Bella, whether you accept it or not, you won’t be able to shake me off in this lifetime. I am yours!” Bella’s eyes widened in amazement, her chest heaved, and her heart pounded wildly.
How could she not have noticed that this man was so shameless, clingy, and persistent? Now he claimed to be hers and even wanted to offer himself to her. However, she found him undesirable. He was old, blind, and second-hand goods!
“Forever? Mr. Salvador, this can’t be the first time you’ve made such a commitment to a woman, right? You said it with such ease that it sounds so smooth and natural.” Bella suppressed her thumping heart. Her eyes were red as open his fingers one by one.
“Back then, when you were sweet-talking Rosalind, did you ma such promises?” ed She continued, “Do you remember how many times you said in fron of me that your wife could only be Rosalind? You said it yourself and swore an oath. How can you discard the woman you swore to love with all your heart? Who would believe your so-called promises anymore?” Bella laughed mockingly, with tears welling up from her red eyes.
Justin felt that he had hurt her too deeply.
Even if he regretted his actions and tried his best to make amends, the memories of Rosalind would always be on Bella’s mind.
He felt incredibly tormented, like a nightmare he could not wake up from.
Justin looked into Bella’s emotionless eyes and felt a heart-stabbing pain.
When she pried open his hand, he felt as if each finger was being broken one by one, causing him to feel immense pain.
“Once, we were legally married. You were my man, but you never tr belonged to me. Now you’re babbling about all these irrelevant things. Do you think I’ll be moved? Do you think I would cherish such nonsense? If you want to be shameless, go ahead. If you want to pursue me for a lifetime, that’s your business. Just stop telling me that.” Bella felt bitterness on her tongue. Her voice inexplicably choked up.
“Fine, I won’t say it anymore. I won’t say it again.”
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 585-Jussim could not bear to see. Bella like this. He quickly keelt on one keem Tront of her.

“Cough, cough…” Bella’s ears were numing red, and she cleared h throat lightly.
She did not say whether she forgave him arot She only lowered her eyelashes and gazed at the strong and handsome man kneeling before her.
In her heart, she was secretly delighted!
“What happened to you tonight? How could you be so cowardly and just stand there being beaten by your father?” Bella raised her eyebrows, anger raging within her. She couldn’t help but poke at his forehead.
She said in a harsh tone, “You’re already 30 years old. Can’t you fight back or resist? Is this a father and son relationship, or more like a master and slave?” “Do you feel sorry for me?” Justin squinted his sultry eyes.
ac “You saved my life, and you’re my patient. As a compassionate doctor, it’s only reasonable for me to care about your well-being.” Bella retorted stubbornly.
“So, you do feel sorry for me.” Justin’s eyes were tender, and a smile played on his thin lips. “A beating in exchange for a word of concern from you. I think I’ve made a profit.” “Huh?!” Bella laughed in frustration.
‘This man! If he has time, he should go to the hospital and check if there is brain damage or cerebellar atrophy!’ Bella thought.
On the other hand, Ryan rushed Carrie to the nearest hospital as fast as he could.
He held Carrie tightly until they saw a doctor. His charming eyes were crimson as a storm brewed within him.
Ryan always treaded between the gray areas of society, so he would normally stay calm in the face of calamity.
It was rare for him to be so anxious and worried about a woman.
Yasmin followed closely behind her boss. She looked at Ryan’s tense and handsome back with a faint smile of satisfaction on her lips.
Carrie was truly an angel. She turned the ruthless and bloodthirsty Ryan into someone with a heart and emotions.
“TL “Mr. Hoffman, all the doctors have gone home for the night. If you go to the emergency department, we can find a doctor for you.” The nurse recognized Ryan. Despite his imposing figure, she trembled and panicked.
“If I don’t see the best doctor in your hospital within ten minutes, I’ll fucking tear this place down and build a nightclub!” Ryan glared at her with bloodshot eyes, his roar echoing through the entire hospital lobby. “Why the fuck aren’t you looking for him now)
The nurse was so scared that her face turned pale, and she hurriedly went to call a doctor.
All medical staff kept their distance from Ryan. Even the patients moved farther away, afraid that they might not be able to survive his tyranny.
“Carrie, is it still hurting?” Ryan’s heart was burning with anxiety.
Carrie’s nightgown was soaked through due to Ryan’s sweaty palms.
Carrie just frowned, silently shedding tears.
Each drop of tear hit the man’s chest, and it hurt him so much that flames of anger surged in his eyes. He gritted his teeth, almost crushing his molars.
“Mr. Hoffman, you’ve forgotten. Ms. Carrie was slapped by Bethany, and her hearing is now severely affected. She probably didn’t mean to ignore you.” Yasmin anxiously reminded Ryan from the side.
This reminder struck a chord. Ryan felt like returning to Tideview Manor to kill Bethany.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 586-“If anything happens to Carrie, I swear I will gouge out that bitch’s eyeballs and stuff them back into her ears!” Watching Carrie’s small face turn pale due to pain, Ryan’s heart felt like it was pierced by an icicle.
He couldn’t help but lower his eyes and kiss her sweaty forehead.
After Ryan created a scene, Carrie was admitted to the ENT department within 10 minutes.
The doctor nervously conducted a series of examinations for Carrie as Ryan and Yasmin watched from the side anxiously.
“Doctor, what’s the situation?” Ryan asked because he couldn’t hold back any longer.
“The external trauma caused her eardrum to be perforated The doctor answered truthfully. “I encountered several cases every week. Most of them were caused by slaps. Some severe can even lead to lifelong complications like tinnitus.” Ryan’s and Yasmin’s faces changed dramatically.
When Ryan heard the words “lifelong complications”, his heart shrank in fear.
“Doctor, can it be treated? Can she fully recover?” Yasmin asked anxiously, showing concern for Carrie as if she were her sister.
“Don’t worry, both of you. I can see that the extent of this young lady’s eardrum perforation is not too serious. With prompt medical treatment, a full recovery should be possible.” Ryan’s eyebrows furrowed, and his voice deepened. “Should be?” “I’m certain that it can be cured. As long as the surgery is performed and proper medication is administered, it will definitely heal. We just need to make sure there is no excessive exertion or exposure to water during the recovery period.” The doctor was frightened by Ryan’s stern gaze and dared not be ambiguous.
“That had better be the case.” Ryan stood in front of Carrie, encircling her trembling body in his arms.
His gaze was cold as he glanced at the doctor and said, “Otherwise, this will be your last patient in your career.” The doctor nodded obediently.
Ryan bent down and patiently patted Carrie’s back. His lips. approached her uninjured right ear, gently consoling, “Don’t be afra I’m here, and I won’t let anything happen to you. I will ensure you return safely to Justin.” Yasmin watched this heartwarming scene from the side. She was usually cold and indifferent, yet watching this made her tear up.
“Ryan… I just heard that I have to undergo surgery.” Carrie.had adapted to her condition and could vaguely hear the words spoken.
She was terrified, and her slender arms immediately embraced Ryan’s sturdy waist..
Ryan’s heart immediately softened. He spoke gently. “Yes, you need a small surgery. It won’t hurt at all.” “I don’t want to… I don’t want surgery… I don’t want to be hospitalized! I don’t want it!” Ryan’s heart throbbed violently as a surge of hidden passion came over him. His fingertips caressed Carrie’s back, and a burning desire flickered in his eyes.
“Don’t worry. It’s just a minor surgery. I’ll be with you the entire time until you’re completely healed.” Ryan reassured her with unwavering confidence.
Carrie resisted with a tearful voice, “But I don’t want to! I’d rather become deaf than stay in this place!” Yasmin keenly observed Carrie, who seemed to be particularly afrai of the hospital. It seemed that she had some hidden trauma.
“Carrie, are you sure? Do you really want to become deaf? If that happens, you won’t be able to hear anything I say to you in the future.” Carrie bit her cherry lips, hesitating.
Ryan got down on one knee in front of Carrie. He took her slightly cool hand and clenched it.
With unprecedented patience, he coaxed her, “Consider it for me, okay? Be good and have the surgery. Otherwise, Justin and Bella will surely skin me alive. Carrie, please have mercy on me, okay?” Ryan’s pitiful act worked like a charm.
Sin Carrie wiped her tearful eyes and nodded slowly.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 587-Bella had just applied medicine for Justin when Matt entered.
“Young Master Justin, how are you feeling?” “Very well. Thanks to Bella.” Justin said this as he looked affectionately at Bella.
Bella subtly shifted her body to the side. This man was once as cool as a monk in deep meditation. Yet now he seemed to be emitting desperate vibes, seizing every opportunity to flirt with her.
“Ms. Thompson, I’m really grateful to you.” Matt was about to bow and express his gratitude to Bella. However, Bella swiftly moved to his side, using both hands to help him up.
“Uncle Matt, please don’t be so polite. It’s what I should do.” “Ms. Thompson, you are still so kind to our young master.” Matt was not someone who liked to meddle in others’ affairs, but he couldn’t help but try to set them up at this moment.
“Don’t get me wrong. I am dedicated to taking care of Justin because he is a very important person to Grandpa Nigel.” Bella smiled faintly and said, “Everything I do is for Grandpa Nigel.” Matt smiled awkwardly. On the other hand, Justin displayed a pampered expression. He was seemingly accustomed to Bella’s sharp -tongued remarks.
In fact, he found amusement in it. No matter how cruel her words 373 were, her actions were always caring for him.
“Young Master Justin, if you are feeling well, please visit the study.
Old Master has something he wants to discuss with you,” Matt suggested.
Justin raised an eyebrow in surprise and said, “Alright.” Then he turned to Bella and said softly, “Wait for me. I’ll be back soon.” “Hmph, who’s waiting for you? I’m leaving right now. Goodbye!” Bella raised her chin arrogantly and brushed past Justin.
Though he felt the urge to grab her hand and keep her here, he restrained himself.
He watched her leave the room with a melancholy expression, lips pursed.
Meanwhile, Matt felt a mix of joy and regret when he noticed J attention fixed on Bella.
“Uncle Matt, do you find me quite ridiculous now?” Justin sneered bitterly.
Justin had always regarded Matt as a family member since he was young, so he did not feel the need to be embarrassed.
“I don’t think so, Young Master Justin.” Matt’s gaze carried the warmth of an elder as he spoke softly, “I also want to congratulate you for finally realizing your true feelings. Now that you are single and Ms. Thompson is single, you have a chance. I hope this time, you can love her as much as she once loved you. Ms.
Thompson is an amazing woman. Please don’t disappoint her again.” After finishing his words, Matt bowed deeply to Justin.
Justin felt a lump in his throat, and his lips trembled signay. Some tears welled up at the corner of his eye, but he managed to hold them back.
“Uncle Matt, do you think there is still hope for me to win Bella beck?” Justin asked, and his voice choked with emotion.
Upon hearing these words, a sudden image flashed in Marr’s mind He recalled when Bella’s legs were dripping with blood. When she was sent to the emergency room, she held his arm and pleaded for him to keep it a secret from Justin.
His pupils trembled, as if he were struck by lightning.
“Young Master Justin, the road ahead may be difficult. But please, no matter what, don’t give up on Ms. Thompson,” Matt advised, Justin entered Nigel’s study alone. As soon as the door closed Bella’s delicate figure emerged at the corner of the stairs, and slowly crept into the corridor.
She transformed into a mischievous kitten. Her footsteps were light and agile as she approached the study’s door.
Bella looked left and right, then slowly pressed her elf-like ears tightly against the door. Her dark eyes glanced around playfully.
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 588-In the study, Nigel sat on the sofa. Nigel poured a cup of water for his grandson and personally brought it to him.
“Thank you, Grandpa.” Justin hurriedly took it with both hands. His demeanor was rather upright and solemn, showing no sign of weakness or illness.
He held the cup in his right hand, supporting the base of the cup with his left hand. He elegantly sipped the tea, displaying the refined manners of a noble young man.
“Justin, does your injury still hurt?” Nigel asked with concern.
“It’s nothing serious, just superficial wounds.” In reality, Justin was somewhat affected by his old injuries.
He often felt congested in his chest, but he concealed it exceptionally well.
Justin smiled brightly and said, “Grandpa, don’t worry. Your grandson.
is not that weak. I’ve been a soldier, after all.” “If you’re not that weak, why didn’t you resist? Your father clearly attacked you under the instigation of that vixen, Shannon. It was unreasonable. Why didn’t you snatch the whip from him and slap it across Shannon’s face?” Nigel asked indignantly.
This was the question he wanted to ask Justin when he called him.
over this time.
Justin lowered his eyes, gazing at his reflection in the cup.
Unexpectedly, he remained silent.
After a while, Nigel frowned and asked with a heart-wrenching voice, Child, you are my grandson, the bloodline of the Salvador family. Do you still feel that you owe something to the family?” Justin’s sharp eyebrows twitched. He pressed his thin lips tightly together, a bitter expression settling on his face.
When he was 5 years old, he and his mother, who was on the brink of death due to illness, struggled to survive.
They suffered countless hardships in the filthy and foul-smelling slums.
One night, amidst a raging storm, a luxurious car forcefully intruded into his dark world. The dilapidated roof was leaking from all sides The wooden door was effortlessly pushed open from the outside without a key.
At that time, the young Justin sat by the bedside, feeding water to his nearly lifeless mother.
Back then, Gregory was young, handsome, and full of vitality.
He wore a meticulously tailored suit. When he stepped into the room. with his handmade leather shoes, not a single drop of water stained them.
The young Justin looked at the man, who seemed like a god descending from the heavens. He only had one thought amid his astonishment.

I made you suffer so much when you were young. Grandpa feels guilty.” “Grandpa, you’re not wrong. What you did back then was for the greater good. I understand that you had your reasons,” Justin said.
Justin was blaming Gregory. Nigel saw through Justin’s thoughts and sighed in frustration.
“I didn’t resist because of my elder brother. Before he left Savrow to recuperate in Meridan, he specifically instructed me not to strain my relationship with Gregory for his sake.”
The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 589-Justin slowly lifted his deep eyes, a glint of darkness flashing. “I have tolerated him up to my limits. But this is the last time. I won’t tolerate it again.” Nigel’s heart was filled with bimerness Memories that he could not bear to remember played vividly before his eyes. His weathered face was covered in the melancholy haze of sadness.
“Grandpa, I’m sorry. I spoke without thinking. I shouldn’t have brought up your heartbreaking past.” Justin felt a sense of quilt in his heam and grasped his grandfather’s rough and dry hands tightly with his warm palms. “I know that if it weren’t for that incident, your preferred her would surely have been my elder brother. He grew up under your affectionate care, the grandson you placed great expectations on.” “Justin…” “Grandpa, I owe you and Grant.” Justin felt a tingling sensation in his nose and smiled gently.
a grandfather who genuinely cares for me is something wouldn’t have dared to dream of when I was a child. I have no right to exped anything else.” “Justin, listen to Grandpa!” Nigel let out a low growl, his trembling hands pressing firmly on Justin’s broad shoulders. They locked eyes, and his gaze was intense. “In my eyes, you are all equal. I love all my grandchildren equally. As for the things you said, I couldn’t care less! Let me make it clear, you little rascal! Even if your elder brother comes back healthy, nothing will change.

She struggled to catch the conversation clearly.
Justin’s voice was like a mosquito buzzing, but Nigel’s voice resonated with vigor. Bella managed to pick up bits and pieces of what he said.

Her ears turned red, and she struggled angrily, attempting to break free from his embrace.
Justin’s gaze deepened, and his hand, tense with veins, slowly explored upward.
Closing his fingers, he gripped the thinnest and softest part of her waist.
