Divorced CEO's Forgotten Wife Strikes Back (Riley and Bryce) novel Chapter 237

Chapter 237 Truth Came Crashing Down

Bryce stood frozen, his expression a storm of conflicted emotions as he stared at Bella.

Bella’s heart sank. The man who had always rushed to her defense, no matter what, just stood there in silence.

He didn’t even take a single step toward her.

Was this change just because she wasn’t the one who saved him?

But he’d said he loved her!

If he loved her, did it really matter whether she was his savior?

Bella was quickly shoved into a car.

Riley turned to Lara and Vince. “What about you two?”

“We’re taking this guy to the police station too,” Vince said, jerking his thumb at Garrett, who was still bound and trying to slip away.

“Alright, let’s all head to the station,” Riley said.

Vince and Lara loaded Garrett into their car.

Riley and Sebastian climbed into theirs.

“Riley!” Bryce called out, his voice desperate as she moved to Ret in.

Riley didn’t look back, getting into the car without a pause.

Sebastian’s cold glare as he followed spoke volumes–Riley was off limits.

As the car disappeared from view, Bryce’s hands tightened into fists. God, he used to be the one closest to Riley!

There was a time when she only had eyes for him. But now? She couldn’t even bring herself to look his way.

He turned to face the river, its waters raging just as violently as they had on that day years ago.

Through the haze of that desperate moment, when the waters had nearly claimed him, he remembered her voice–strong and unwavering. “Don’t be afraid… I’ll save you. You’re safe with

me!”

Those words had been his anchor, a beacon of hope when death seemed certain.

In that moment, gasping for life, he’d made a promise: if he survived, he would find a way to repay his savior.

So how had it come to this?

His savior had been by his side all along, through three years of marriage. And what had he done?

Regret surged through Bryce, vast and overwhelming, ast memories of the past flooded back.

“It shouldn’t be like this. It shouldn’t…” he murmured, his voice breaking.

Riley handed over all the evidence against Bella to the police.

Bella was detained, as the law required.

In the police station, Bella glared at Riley, her eyes blazing with resentment. “You think you’ve won, Riley? Your pathetic evidence won’t hold up in court!”

“That’s for the judge and jury to decide,” Riley said coldly.

At that moment, Vince and Lara arrived with Garrett. The

“Don’t blame me for your downfall!” Bella shot back. “You got greedy with your fifty–million–dollar demand. You pushed me into a corner–what happened next is on you!”

“You’re calling me greedy?” Garrett shot back, barely restrained by the police nearby. “I only asked for fifty million dollars, but you? You’re after Bryce’s entire fortune! Why else would you pretend to be his savior? If you really cared for him, why didn’t you fall for him when he was a nobody? You only latched onto him after he made it big!”

Bella froze, speechless, as her gaze darted past Garrett to Bryce, who had just entered the station. Panic seized her. “Bryce, don’t listen to him! I chose to be with you because I love you!”

She couldn’t afford to lose Bryce’s support, not now, when Riley had evidence tying her to the border fire.
