The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 538
Just as Bella stepped into the hospital room, Steven received a call
from Declan.
Steven answered, “Mr. Declan.”
“Steven! As Bella’s secretary, why didn’t you report Bella’s
whereabouts to us immediately?”
Declan bombarded him with questions. “Why are you and Bella now at the Deux Hospital? Is she looking for Justin?”
On the other end, Asher’s steady voice followed, “Dec, calm down.”
In reality, Declan had a gentle personality. However, when it came to Bella’s matters, he instantly became aggressive.
Steven was greatly surprised and blinked. “Mr. Declan, how
know?”
After all, Bella kept her visit to see Justin confidential!
“Satellite tracking.” Asher sighed helplessly. “Declan is about to
employ tactics for capturing wanted criminals. How hard is it for hir
to find Bella?”
Steven was rendered speechless.
“Declan, don’t worry. Knowing Bella’s personality, she won’t come
back even if you scold her and hit her.” Asher said in a laid-back
manner, “We’re all adults. Let her go.”
“I will dispatch a team of security guards to surround the hospital and

keep an eye on the situation outside the room. Steven, I need you to
watch closely tonight. If Justin does anything to Bella, you must
inform me immediately,” Declan instructed.
“Yes, Mr. Declan!” Steven felt the pressure emanating from the young
colonel. He was almost ready to stand at attention.
Declan declared a chilling warning, intense anger evident in his voice.”
If Justin dares to harm my little sister, even a little bit, I’ll make sure
he never walks out of that hospital alive!”
Justin happily applied the ointment and took his medicine since Bella
was willing to accompany him.
Although the hospital dinner was bland and lacked variety, Justin felt
like he was enjoying a feast because Bella was by his side. He
thought this simple meal was the most delicious thing he had eaten

in years.
Seeing him devour the food like he hadn’t eaten in days, Bella found it
somewhat amusing.
She decided to order a portion as a late-night snack for herself.
The result was a rather unappetizing meal. But she stuck to her
principle of not wasting food and finished it.
“You should eat more nutritious foods to rejuvenate your body.
Perhaps something soupy and comforting,” Bella casually suggested.
“Great, can you make them for me?” Justin looked at her with
anticipation.

“I used to make them for you all the time, but you never appreciated them,” Bella sneered, pushing the meal box aside.
She picked up her pajamas and toiletries and headed toward the
bathroom. “Wilma is good at cooking. Have her make something for
you.”
With a slam, the bathroom door closed.
Justin felt a lump in his throat upon hearing those words. Bitterness
lingered in his heart. It seemed that starting from scratch again and
trying to reclaim what was lost was indeed an arduous journey.

Bella emerged from the bathroom wearing a peach-colored silk
pajama set.
Even without makeup, her skin was still as translucent and tender as
a peeled lychee.
She had a youthful innocence that made her look more like 18 than
her actual age of 24.
Justin’s thin lips pursed slightly. His usually steady heartbeat surged
in response to her presence.
“What are you looking at? Never seen me without makeup?” Bella sprayed her face with a mist, feeling the dryness in the room.
“I have, frequently in the past,” Justin replied calmly, trying to suppress the turmoil in his heart. “It’s just that I got emotional just
now.”
“You got emotional just by looking at me? Well, I only saw the lust in your eyes.” Bella spoke sarcastically as she walked over to
the sofa

and took a seat,

Justin was momentarily speechless
This woman had already reached the pinnacle of cursing without using any vulgar language. If she were to scold him, it would be
the epitome of eloquence.
“Those who trespass my territory shall be killed without mercy.” Bella lay horizontally on the sofa. She wore a silk eye mask and
covered herself with a blanket. She quickly adjusted herself into a comfortable
position and declared, “I’m going to sleep.”
“Come and sleep in the bed,” Justin gently suggested.
“Justin, we’re divorced. Do you still fantasize about sharing a bed
with your ex-wife? Are you asking for death?” Bella asked coldly.
“No, you’ve misunderstood.” Justin couldn’t help but smile bitterly. ” I’ll give you the bed.”
“Say one more word, and I’ll leave immediately. Since you’ve taken your medicine, there’s nothing that can hold me here.” Bella
dismissed him, completely in control.
This time, Justin didn’t dare to say anything more.
Finally convincing her to stay the night, he couldn’t afford to ruin this tranquil moment.
The lights were switched off, and the room fell into peaceful silence.
Justin was not sleepy at all. He lay on his side and stole glances at Bella without blinking.

Under the soft moonlight, Bella looked like a perfectly proportioned
sculpture lying on her side. Even with her back turned towards him,
she looked beautiful.

“Still looking? If you keep looking, I’ll leave,” Bella suddenly said, as if
she had eyes on her back.
“Sorry for disturbing your rest.” Justin’s heart trembled.
Now, he was truly cautious, humble, and timid.
“No, it’s just that when you’re asleep, your breathing isn’t like this. I
can instantly tell whether you’re asleep or not,” Bella said.
As soon as the words were spoken, both of them were stunned.
Bella suddenly felt a faint, indescribable pain in her heart. She curled
up her slender body, clutching the edge of her clothes tightly.
She was a little angry with herself. ‘How deeply in love was I that even
the slightest details of that man became familiar to my heart?’
Justin’s eyes widened in astonishment, a profound sense of guilt rising within him.
The pitch-black room seemed to make the air thin, making it hard for
him to breathe.
For the past three years, every night, he slept soundly. But what about
Bella? How did she endure those lonely and desolate nights?
“Bella, I was too much of a jerk in the past.” After a while, he
expressed remorse again, his voice deep and hoarse.
“Let it go. It’s all in the past. I just hope that none of us repeats the
same mistakes.”

“Bella, I’m serious.”
Bella closed her eyes, gently interrupting him with a smile. “If you liked me, you would have liked me a long time ago. Why wait
until now? Even if you like me now, it’s just a change in your taste. I’m not a fool. How could I take your momentary whims as
solemn vows?”
