The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Axel was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He wanted to say more, but Bella glared at him, so he shut his mouth.

“What?! I’m going to beat that bastard on your behalf!”

Steven was angry and wanted to settle the score with Justin, but Bella stopped him. “Forget it. You can’t beat him. He used to be in the peacekeeping army, so you’ll just become his punching bag. Besides, he didn’t mean to dislocate my shoulder. He’s just careless and doesn’t know how to control his strength. He’s always been like this.”

“Ms. Bella, why does it sound like you have known him for a long time?”

Bella was stunned for a moment. She pursed her red lips and said nothing.

Steven still did not know about her relationship with Justin. She did not mean to hide it on purpose, but she was just too lazy to explain herself.

It was in the past anyway, and she did not plan to get back together with Justin.

Back at the villa, Axel made coffee for Bella while scolding Justin for being a jinx.

“I’m sorry, Axel.” Bella’s long eyelashes trembled guiltily.

“Huh? Why are you apologizing to me?”

Axel was surprised and raised his hand to touch his sister’s forehead. “Do you have a fever? What nonsense are you spouting now?”

“No, I just felt sorry for using you to keep my secret. Since Asher is on a business trip in Inalia, I can only ask you for help. I’m afraid that you think I’m treating you as a prop…” Bella’s voice became softer as she spoke.

“Silly girl, what are you talking about?”

Axel felt distressed and came over to hug Bella. He avoided her injured arm and pulled her slender body to his chest.

“Mom gave birth to the four of us before you so that we could protect you. The next time you get married, the four of us will also accompany you!”

After saying this, Axel felt that it was not right to assume this and quickly added, “Even if you never get married, we will still be at your beck and call. We’ll protect you and be your backers for the rest of your life!”

Bella’s lips twitched as she thought, ‘Accompany me when I get married? Then I might as well be a

nun…’

Justin’s mood was affected because he had injured Bella. He could not concentrate on his meetings all afternoon and did not listen to the reports by the senior executives. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

His lips were bruised, and his face was gloomy. However, no one dared to ask him what happened. They did not even dare to breathe loudly.

Although Justin was Gregory’s illegitimate son, everyone in the Salvador Corporation respected him.

Gregory’s eldest son from his first wife was frail and had been recuperating in Regarton. His illness had worsened in recent years, and he had to rely on someone to push him around in a wheelchair. Gregory’s second wife, Shannon, gave birth to two daughters. Her eldest daughter was 25 years old,

and her second daughter was 20 years old. None of her daughters were capable enough to be the heirs of the Salvador Corporation.

Therefore, Justin was the only successor to the Salvador Corporation. He was outstanding and commanding, so those who initially opposed his succession dared not go against it anymore.

“Mr. Salvador, the Walter Group Hotel we have an eye on in the western suburbs has been acquired.” The senior management reported the situation cautiously.

“By whom?” Justin immediately returned to his senses and focused on the matter at hand.

“KS Group. Walter Group transferred that hotel to them. In the future, it will be the second branch of KS World Hotel in Savrow.”

Justin’s body stiffened, and his eyes darkened.

“Why didn’t you tell me sooner?”

“We have been negotiating the acquisition and almost got a deal, but Ms. Thompson from KS World Hotel came out of nowhere and intercepted our project. It was truly unexpected.” The senior management’s face turned pale with fright.

“Almost got a deal? I think it’s almost time for you to retire.”

There was no emotion in Justin’s eyes. His deep voice was oppressive as he said, “What did I tell you before? That hotel is in a strategic location. It’s only a 600-meter walk from Universal Studios, which will be built in two years. I wanted you to acquire it as soon as possible, even if we had to pay double. But you were so hesitant and timid. That’s why the project was intercepted! Now, KS Group has benefited from this. How will you or your team bear this responsibility?”

The senior manager lowered his head and wiped his sweat. His legs trembled under the table.

“You’ll be transferred to Fenn’s branch next week. If you repeat this mistake, I won’t care that you’ve worked here for a decade.”

After Justin finished speaking, he strode out the door, leaving everyone with stunned expressions on their faces. They felt as if they were walking on thin ice.

Justin was angrier than usual today.

“Could it be… Revenge?”

On the way back to Tideview Manor, Ian glanced at the rearview mirror worriedly while driving. After Ms. Gold attacked Young Madam, Mr. Thompson stopped all our project cooperation and exposed the Gold family’s product issues. Could this all be Mr. Thompson’s intentions? Although the Gold family deserves to be in this situation…”

Justin suddenly raised his eyes and looked sharply at the rearview mirror. Ian was so flustered that he almost choked.

“Stop at the tailor shop in front.”
