The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 711

Justin’s worries just melted away.

“Thank you, Bella.” He expressed his gratitude, his voice whimpering.

Although Bella appeared unfazed, a wave of emotions stirred within her.

As an important meeting was happening at Salvador Corporation, Gregory left ahead of the rest.

Since Bella was revealed to be the miracle doctor, Dr. Brown, she became Justin’s attending doctor.

Justin’s follow-up treatment rested on her shoulders.

She asked Justin a few questions about his well-being before wheeling him off with Ryan and Scott for

further checkups.

Bella, Nigel, and Matt stayed behind in the ward.

“You look like you have a lot on your mind, Anna. Is there something bothering you?” While no one was

around, Nigel asked with concern.

Snapping out of her thoughts, Bella replied in a vague manner, “No. Nothing, Grandpa Nigel.”

“You can fool others, but you can’t fool me, Anna.”

Nigel looked troubled. “Is there something more to Justin’s injury?”

“Grandpa Nigel…”

“Don’t keep it from me. You know me. Just tell me the truth. I can

handle it.

“If you can’t be honest with me, I won’t be able to sleep or eat well

because I’ll obsess over it.”

Bella felt torn. After much hesitation, she turned to Matt. “Please give

us a moment, Matt.”

Taking the hint, Matt walked out of the ward and closed the door

behind him.

“Did you say Justin has surgery complications, child?” Nigel asked in

a trembling voice, his heart sinking.

“Yes, and it’s all my fault. It’s all my fault, Grandpa Nigel.”

Bella hung her head low in shame and clutched her fingers tight. “|

expect better from myself, but I have a lot more to learn.”

“Don’t blame yourself, Anna. Without you, Justin and I probably would have to say goodbye forever.”

Nigel put his coarse hand over hers and looked at her seriously. “But

there’s one thing you must promise me. Keep Justin’s surgery

complications a secret. The less people know about this, the better.”

“Scott and I are the only ones aware of Justin’s medical condition.

Scott and I are close. He can be trusted not to breathe a word to

anyone.”

With furrowed brows, Bella asked, “Justin needs sedatives when he

acts up. We don’t have any other treatment plans for him. Besides, I have no idea when and where he

would have his outbursts. We can only keep it a secret for so long. What if-”

“Then we’ll hide the truth for as long as we can. At the very least, this

has to wait until it’s decided that Justin becomes the heir of the family business and inherits most of the

shares and assets.”

Nigel clenched his fists, his gaze deep. “The successor to Salvador Corporation can only be Justin and

no one else. If someone holds his illness against him, he won’t be the successor and will possibly lose

his position as president.”

Confused, Bella fell into contemplation before probing. “By right, the firstborn son would take over the

farmily business, Grandpa Nigel.

Justin’s eldest brother, Grant, should inherit Salvador Corporation.

But I heard that Grant is in poor health and recuperating abroad. I thought you had chosen Justin as

the successor because his brother

wasn’t in the best of health. That doesn’t seem to be the case now.

What’s the reason you want Justin to take over the family business instead?”

Nigel swallowed hard and clammed up.
