The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 315
Bella gracefully tilted her head up, maintaining eye contact with Justin as she walked closer. At that moment, it felt like every
drop of blood in his body seemed to converge at the tip of his heart. His throat tightened, and the muscles in his body tensed
even further. It was as if every part of him was urging him to be with Bella, longing to reach out to her right then.
Zoe, noticing Justin’s reaction, furrowed her brows slightly. She held onto him tightly, as if guarding a precious treasure. Her
overwhelming sense of possessiveness was triggered. She could sense that Justin not only knew this beautiful woman but also
cared deeply for her!
Just when Justin thought Bella was approaching him, she unexpectedly turned like a gentle breeze, gliding past him.
“Christian!” Bella called out, leaving the bewildered Justin behind her.
“Oh! My sweetheart!” Christian, walking from the other end of the corridor, saw Bella as if encountering a long-lost friend. She
waved at Bella with immense excitement and greeted her with kisses on the cheek. It was evident how close the two of them
were.
Everyone, including the three men and Zoe, was left speechless.
Having been Christian’s protege for three years, Zoe knew Christian as a solitary and somewhat arrogant person. Christian
rarely shared compliments and often had a sour expression.
‘How did this woman effortlessly earn the rare sight of a smile from her mentor?’
“My dear, I never expected to see you in Savrow! OMG... If only I had known, I would have cleared my schedule to have dinner
with you!” Christian joyfully embraced Bella.
“You still have rehearsals to prepare for. I wouldn’t want to disturb you.” Bella spoke fluent French, her tone soft and intimate as if
it were her native language.
Bella used her identity as Sharon in her interactions with Christian, who had not only ordered more than one custom dress from
her but had also developed a close personal relationship with her. It could be said that Bella had a magical charm. Anyone who
collaborated with her would eventually become her friend.

As Justin watched Bella chat happily with the internationally renowned pianist Christian, memories of the past flooded his mind.
His shoulders shuddered slightly, and suddenly, everything he thought about the world turned upside down.
He remembered the early days of his marriage, when Bella’s eyes used to light up with joy, much like Zoe’s. Bella would come
across interesting things, chatting away like those young girls.
However, he often neglected her, not sparing her a single glance. Gradually, Bella became quieter, transforming into a silent
presence at Tideview Manor, standing by his side.
In those three years, Bella had no social life, and the arts and scholarly pursuits gave way to the mundane daily chores. Justin
found her uninteresting, thinking she fell short in every aspect compared to Rosalind. He believed marrying Bella was a
regrettable mistake.
Little did he realize, he nearly destroyed Bella with his own hands.
His emotional abuse had turned Bella into a docile and submissive woman, someone who walked on eggshells and settled for
compromises. The deep affection Bella once had for him. was like the Titanic colliding with an iceberg. Even the flame-like fervor
of their romance ultimately became a heartbreaking disaster.
“Mr. Iverson, come over!” Bella’s eyes sparkled as she looked beyond Justin towards Christopher. She waved at him with a
cheerful smile.
Christopher hastily adjusted his tie and the corners of his clothes and said, “I’m coming!”
A hint of nervousness appeared in his usually composed features as he strode toward Bella with determined steps.
Justin clenched his fingers tightly, bitterness piercing through his chest, while Ryan was seething with jealousy.
Just as Christopher and Justin brushed past each other, Christopher suddenly halted. He smirked and adjusted his glasses as
he glanced sideways, directed at Justin, who exuded the triumphant mockery of a victor.
Christopher’s contemptuous gaze was like a sharp blade, cutting into Justin’s heart and leaving it in a blurry mess. Justin
watched helplessly as the man walked to Bella’s side and stood shoulder-to-shoulder with her.
Justin witnessed everything unfold and yet felt powerless. ‘Is this all I can do? Can I only be a useless bystander? Is there no
way to stop their relationship from developing further?’

In the midst of this tension, Bella introduced Christopher to Christian, the renowned pianist.
Bella grinned. “Christian, this is my friend, Christopher. His mother is a big fan of yours, so he’s hoping to get a signed album
from you as a memento for her.”
“Of course! I would be happy to!” Christian graciously complied, displaying an unexpected warmth.
Not only did Christian provide a signed album, but she also asked her manager to capture the moment. As the trio posed for a
photo, a bitter taste filled Justin’s heart. The scene was a mix of complex emotions, rivalry, and an underlying sense of
powerlessness for Justin.
