The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 531
“Bella, tell me the truth. Have you fallen for that bastard again because of this incident?” Mila asked worriedly.
“No.”
Bella answered firmly. “I’m not so stupid to jump into a pile of shit. I just don’t like owing him anything.”
Inexplicably, she felt a trace of paniq, but it quickly vanished.
“That’s good, then. If you want to get back together with him, you probably won’t have any home to come back to.”
Mila cast a chilly glance at her. “Do you want your family or do you want a scumbag? You choose.”
Bella rubbed at the goosebumps that had risen all over her arms in fear.
“Bella! Mila!”
Right then, Sasha knocked on the door and strode in. “They’ve just delivered the gowns for Celeste’s birthday party. Hurry up
and come take a look! I’m not too good at fashion. After all, I even wore pants to my wedding.”
“Sure, sure! We’ll head over right away!”
Bella hurriedly dragged Mila off to look for Celeste, afraid she would ask further questions.
Chapter 531
2/3

The three women arrived at Celeste’s room, only to find a wheeled rack crammed full of gorgeous evening gowns.
Every single one was limited edition and fresh off Paris Fashion Week’s runway. They were so dazzling!
There were also rows upon rows of custom-made high heels on the floor. A few of them were topped with sparkling diamonds,
making them look extravagant.
If she had been any other woman, she would be shrieking in delight by now. One could buy a house just by scraping off a few of
the
diamonds and selling them.
But Celeste, clad in a plain and ordinary light purple sweater, sat on the sofa at a loss.
“What’s wrong, Aunt Celeste? Your birthday is coming soon. Wh aren’t you happy?” Bella sat beside Celeste and put an arm
arou in a bossy manner.
“Bella, can you ask your dad nicely to call off the party?”
Celeste sighed helplessly. “I’ve been going back and forth on this with him for half a month now. I said it was fine to just have
everyone gather at home. I’m not used to eating outside food anyway, and it’ll be so tiring and expensive to entertain so many
guests. But Wyatt won’t listen, so what should I do?”
“Wow! Celeste, you’re showing off, aren’t you?” Sasha teased.
“If we didn’t know you, we’d probably assume you were trying to subtly show off and make us jealous.” Mila put an arm around
Sasha’s slim waist and joined in on the teasing.

Bella’s eyelashes trembled slightly, feeling uncomfortable.
When she was young, out of consideration for her feelings, Celeste made herself invisible at home after getting together with her
father. She only saw her bustling around in the dining hall during mealtimes.
At the time, Bella could not remember much but knew Celeste was her mother’s love rival, so even at a young age, she was very
protective of her mother and clashed with Celeste often. She often
caused huge uproars at home and even said a lot of terrible things
about Celeste to her face.
Bella always thought that Celeste had too little self-respect. How could she shamelessly cling to Wyatt, despite knowing he had a
family and more than one woman by his side?
It was not until later that she learned the whole story from Asher and Axel after she grew up.
Back then, Bella’s mother had contracted lupus, and Celeste had
donated bone marrow to her without hesitation.
That was two decades ago, when medical technology was not as
developed as it is now. Donating one’s bone marrow was not
completely risk-free, and Celeste had gotten long-term after-effects from it. From time to time, she would feel unbearable pain.
