The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Bella said, "Was it James' scheme?!"
Justin explained, "It could be a possibility. This incident indirectly caused the Iverson couple to split up. Mrs. Iverson blamed
Christopher, who wasn't well-liked at home anyway, and he got sent off to Sentania for fifteen years with nobody caring for him.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Iverson's health declined over time, and Christopher received almost no financial support from the Iverson
family either. Living in Sentania was tough for him."
Bella was somewhat surprised and asked, "Are you defending your enemy?"
Justin smiled faintly and said, "No, I'm just stating the facts. Even if he is my enemy, I won't twist the truth."
Bella was moved, and she wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a peck on the lips.
It was this integrity and openness that Christopher could never compare to.
"So, do you think he wouldn't hold a grudge? If I were him, I'd also spare no effort to come back and avenge my mother, no
matter the cost," Justin said, his gaze deep and distant.
"But that still doesn't justify what he did." Bella continued shaking her head. "Besides, if he wanted revenge, he could have
targeted the Iverson family. Why did he have to harm you, Asher, and Camilla? How could he not know that Edward was my
brother-in-law when he was in Sentania? He claimed to love me but shamelessly went after my family behind closed doors. Just
because my brother didn't approve of him, he conspired with Maxwell and tried to secretly get rid of him."
She continued, "If things didn't go his way, he'd make sure everyone else suffered along with him. He's willing to hurt anyone
who doesn't do as he says, even if it's someone related to the person he loves! How many more people does he want to hurt
before he's satisfied? He's too selfish and heartless!"
Justin blinked slowly as he struggled to find the right words. It felt a little silly to join Bella in cursing Christopher.
Bella fell silent for a moment, then suddenly said, puzzled, "Back then, Christopher was young and had no one to help him. How
did he manage to rise up and expand his business then?" Justin's eyes lit up. "That's a good question. Bella, I've also been
puzzled by this and have been secretly investigating."
"Even you, who came from the Salvador family, only managed to reach your current position with your grandfather's strong
support. How could Christopher not have someone supporting him behind the scenes?"

Bella's lustrous eyes flickered with
suspicion. "There must be someone high-ranking and powerful backing him up in Sentania that's using him
for those risky deals they Celibe
openly engage in. They even
manipulate him into drug trafficking, controlling elections, and killing anyone who stands in their way."
Justin couldn't look away from Bella. His heart raced as he leaned in,
unable to resist kissing her
passionately. Every word she said
ignited something within him. It was
like they were totally in sync.
"Mm..." Bella let out a soft gasp, gently pushing him away. "If we figure out who's supporting Christopher behind the scenes,
maybe we could bring him down and remove him once and for all!"
Justin felt a surge of jealousy
welling up inside him. This girl was completely fixated on figuring out how to deal with Christopher. Although he knew she was
seeking justice, she seemed to not give any thought to anything else and
probably never had the time to think
about him.
He replied, "Bella, I'm thinking the same thing as you. I'm now looking into this from a different perspective to see if there's a way
to take down Christopher."
"When I have time, I'll contact Camilla and Edward to see if there's a way to solve this," Bella said, feeling relieved and filled with
fighting spirit.

Justin smiled fondly and held onto her small waist. "It's getting late. Do you want to go to sleep?”
"Well, I still feel full," Bella said as she patted her round belly.
"Should we go rowing?"
Bella raised her eyebrows, teasing him. "Do you believe everything I say? It's so dark outside. Let's not drown in the lake."
"Then... Shall we go back to the room and do some other activities to help with digestion?" Justin said as his breathing became
heavier, his low magnetic voice carrying a seductive tone. Bella's heart skipped a beat, feeling shy in his embrace. "Um... Let's
just go rowing..."
Justin did not know whether to be happy or upset. Is she getting bored of me? It seems that I'll have to unlock some new tricks.
