Chapter 93
Bella’s eyes were distant and determined.
“It seems that Rosalind has taken such good care of you that you’ve become more thick-skinned.”
“This is between the two of us. Don’t involve anyone else.” Justin’s chest was filled with anger.
“If you don’t want me to say unpleasant things, please stay away from me. I don’t want to have
anything to do with you besides finalizing our divorce. Goodbye, Mr. Salvador.”
Justin was so used to Anna’s sparkling and eager eyes that he was shocked to see her cold stare at this moment. He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and the heat around his body gradually dissipated.
“I won’t let you leave!”
Bella parted her red lips slightly and sneered. “Who the hell are you to let me do things? Am I your pet dog? Why should I listen to you?”
“You don’t have to belittle yourself like that. I don’t think that you’re my dog.” Justin frowned in displeasure.
“Belittle myself? Haha! Justin, are you stupid or naive? Can’t you hear what I mean by that? I hate you, so stop pestering me!”
Bella’s eyes were red. She wanted to withdraw her hand from his.
Unexpectedly, Justin was equally stubborn. The more she struggled, the harder he held on to her, completely ignorant of the strength he was exerting.
“Ouch…” Bella hissed in pain.
She held her forearm with her left hand and crouched down as a thin layer of sweat broke out on her
forehead.
Justin finally realized that something was wrong and quickly let go of her.
He lowered his eyes and was shocked to see that his palm was bloody.
He grabbed onto her wound earlier. He was so eager to take her away that he forgot about the
untreated wound on her wrist.
Justin was too careless.
“I’ll take you to the infirmary to bandage it now.” Justin’s voice was deep and hoarse. His eyes were
heavy with guilt.
“Leave now, or I’ll call the police.” Bella backed away angrily.
“Anna…”
“Get lost!”
Bella could not bear it anymore and yelled at him. Her heart was like her hand, scarred and in pain.
They had been married for three years, but Justin ignored her and did not even touch her.
Now that they were divorced, he pestered her and harassed her to no end.
How ironic was that?
Justin’s soul shook when Bella yelled at him. His handsome face was frozen.
“You want me to get lost? Why didn’t you say this when you insisted on marrying me back then?”
“Because I loved you back then.” Bella’s eyes were red as she laughed angrily. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Justin felt a stabbing pain in his heart. His breathing became heavy.
“When I love you, you can do whatever you want to me. Now that I don’t love you anymore, all of my tolerance for you is gone. Did you think that you could still enjoy the benefits I provided after our divorce? No, Justin. I don’t love you. You’re worthless to me.”
Bella raised her chin angrily, turned around, and left without hesitation.
“Anna, if it weren’t for Grandpa, do you think I would be willing to look for you? Do you know how much Grandpa misses you? He’s anxious that he can’t contact you.”
Justin’s eyes also turned red. He retorted with hurtful words. “You keep saying that you’re doing this for Grandpa. Are you going back on your word now? Do you think that Grandpa is senile, and you can fool him?”
Bella took a deep breath and clenched her fists.
Nigel was undoubtedly someone that Bella missed. It became an unbreakable bond between her and Justin.
Bella was a loyal and righteous woman who would keep her promise, no matter what. She promised to only finalize the divorce after Nigel’s birthday, so she would not go back on her word, even if it was extremely painful to her.
“I didn’t go back on my promise. I will find the time to visit Grandpa in the next two days.”
“Now.”
“What?”
“Come with me to see Grandpa now. He hasn’t had a good night’s sleep for five days. Without won’t even eat properly.”
you,
he
Justin seemed to have reached the limit of his patience. His breathing was restrained and unsteady.” Don’t disappoint him, Anna.”
In the end, Bella compromised.
When she took care of Nigel in the nursing home, her motives were indeed impure. At that time, Bella did not expect to marry Justin. She only hoped to do something for Justin and have more
opportunities to see him.
After interacting with Nigel, she fell in love with the cute old man.
Although Nigel was old, he was still sharp, wise, and strategic. Even if he was no longer in charge of the Salvador Corporation, he could still remotely monitor some of the company’s major decisions and provide guidance when necessary. He was a good mentor to the younger generations of the Salvador family.
Bella secretly learned a lot of skills while staying with the old man. She also taught what she learned to Asher and put it to use when managing the hotel.
Therefore, Nigel was not just her grandfather but also her mentor.
