The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge


Chapter 1156

The other three were stunned. Their jaws dropped.

Bella grabbed Justin's hand. “Justin, it's been twenty years. Where did you get the evidence from?"

Justin clasped her hand and spoke with a low, hoarse voice."

Remember when I told you that I was going to track down the maid who once served my mother?"

Bella nodded obediently.

"Perhaps people have a premonition before disaster strikes. Before Shannon had her accident, that maid tried to flee the country. lan sent someone to catch her in time, and then I used a little persuasion."

Justin took a deep breath and continued, "In order to save her son, she revealed some truths in her panic. It was even beyond what Shannon confessed in that recording."

He was fundamentally kind-hearted. If not for being pushed to extremes, how could he have used a child's life as a bargaining chi

Bella believed that even if the maid remained stubborn to the end, Justin wouldn't harm the maid's son.

It was beyond him. If he did, how would he differ from people like Christopher?

"Shannon murdered my mother. Shannon poisoned my mother with her own hands." Justin's eyes were bloodshot, and he tried his best to restrain the surging hatred in his heart. His hand, which was held tightly by Bella, felt like solid ice.

"Poisoned with her own hands..." Axel and Ralph were shocked, their cheeks stiffening. Ian's body staggered as if struck hard by a heavy blow.

Bella felt like she couldn't breathe. It was as if her chest was crushed by a giant stone. If it were anyone else, they would have gone insane, but Justin didn't lose his mind. The more composed he appeared, the more her heart ached.

Ralph asked urgently. "Mr. Salvador, what exactly happened?"

"The maid confessed. She followed Shannon's orders to switch out my mother's antidepressants, but she only replaced them with ordinary supplements that wouldn't be lethal. However, perhaps Shannon sensed a thaw in the relationship between my mother and Gregory during that period. Afraid of trouble, Shannon switched the supplements with a small dose of poison. Over time, the poison would accumulate, causing cardiac paralysis and sudden death."

Justin's broad shoulders trembled subtly. Each word he uttered f chilly and infused with deep-seated hatred.

Bella's eyes welled up with tears, her palm lightly caressing his back

"How did the maid know such intricate details?" Axel asked eagerly for information, possessed by his instincts as a prosecutor.

"She saw it." Justin tightly grasped Bella's hand, as if only by touching her so directly could he maintain his composure. "She said that two days before my mother's suicide, she noticed that every time she replaced my mother's medication, Shannon would sneak in while she wasn't looking and switch the medicine. But she never mentioned it to her or dared to ask a single question."

"That's because if Mrs. Salvador had died of cardiac arrest, the maid responsible for Mrs. Salvador's care would have been taken away for investigation."

Bella's mind raced, calmly analyzing, "By then, no matter what the maid said, it would be futile because the medicine was under her care. Since she switched it, she would bear all the blame alone. She
had already thought of this at the time. But she was already trapped, with no way out, so she had to walk that path to the end."

Justin paused, his handsome face growing paler. "But on the day of the incident, there was an unexpected turn of events. That is, my mother, who originally went to the garden for a walk, found that she
had forgotten her camera, so she turned back to the room..."

"And then she happened to see, Shannon switching the medicine?" NQ

Bella's heart sank heavily.

Justin lowered his gaze and nodded. "Yes. The maid had been hiding outside the room, eavesdropping on the situation inside. Bece of her close relationship with Shannon, her nerves were on ed that period. She couldn't have a single night of peaceful sleep.

Ralph gritted his teeth fiercely. "Hmph! Let her make up for the sleep in jail!"

"The maid said that although she couldn't see what was happeningm inside at the time she faintly heard a heated argument between my mother and Shannon. She said my mother had been like an emotionless person since coming to the Salvador family, but that was the first time my mother kcom exploded in such anger, even frightening the maid."

"And then?" Bella stared at him without blinking.
