The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson) novel Chapter 1036

Chapter 1036 

Justin suddenly felt his heart sink. 

After several encounters, he realized that his understanding of 

Christopher far surpassed that of his less insightful companion. 

While Bella viewed Christopher as her childhood friend, he did not see 

Bella in the same way. Justin knew that Christopher was the kind of 

person who nitpicked over every detail, held grudges and sought 

vengeance relentlessly. In other words, he was petty! 

Cross him once, and he would make your entire family pay for it. 

It was not an exaggeration, because Christopher was genuinely 

capable of doing it. 

“If you have to rely on schemes and tricks to attain love, then that 

love is no longer pure. It has lost its most primal and sacred essence! 

Asher’s gaze held a mix of paternal love and worry as he observed 

Bella. “The idea of you associating with someone like him keeps me 

restless all day and night. He has no boundaries with anyone and will use any means necessary to get what he wants. We have no idea if he might someday turn those methods against you. Bella, you’re my 

dearest sister and my lifeline. I can’t risk your happiness. I can’t 

afford to lose.” 

Asher’s heartfelt words brought tears to Bella’s eyes. “Ash…” 

Asher gently ran his hand through Bella’s hair, then turned to Justin 

and asked, “Mr. Salvador, since you already suspected Christopher’s 

involvement during your time on the South Island, why didn’t you

inform me then? Perhaps we could’ve found a solution sooner and 

caught him red-handed.” 

2/4 

Justin let out a long sigh, a bitter smile tugging at his lips. “Although I 

detest Christopher, this is purely speculation. No matter how 

reasonable my suspicions seemed, they were merely suspicions. 

Without evidence, I can’t hastily accuse him of being the mastermind 

behind it all.” 

Asher felt a mix of indistinct emotions welling inside him, his 

admiration for Justin increasing. 

This was precisely why, despite Christopher’s numerous efforts for 

Bella, Asher always felt that Christopher could not measure up to 

Justin. 

Despite Christopher’s outward charm, his personality was rotten to the core. However, despite many shortcomings, Justin’s soul 

remained pure and untainted. 

“Besides, Christopher is someone Bella values deeply.” 

Justin concluded, deciding not to elaborate further. 

Bella felt a sharp pang in her heart as if a sharp blade had pierced 

through her throat. “So… Was the reason why you didn’t say anything back then because you were afraid I’d be angry?” 

“Yeah.” 

Justin admitted with a sheepish smile, his charming eyes reflecting a hint of embarrassment. “I was being too timid. That’s not at all like a man should be, right? Initially, I planned to investigate him promptly after leaving South Island, but… I almost didn’t make it back alive. I

shouldn’t have been so reckless.” 

How pathetic. 

In Bella’s presence, this once dignified man seemed to crumble,

fearing even the slightest misstep might upset her and undo all the goodwill he had painstakingly regained. 

“You’re so foolish, Justin. So foolish.” Bella murmured, her eyelashes 

glistening with tears. Her heart was so heavy that she could barely find words to express her feelings. 

Recalling the countless times she had argued fiercely with Justin about Christopher, Bella was flushed with anger. She could not help 

but find it all incredibly absurd. 

Luckily, Justin’s love for her remained steadfast.
