Chapter 1136
Bella seethed with intense rage, her fingers tightly clenched in
frustration.
This despicable woman had a silver tongue and was truly adept at distorting facts and twisting the truth. Despite her clear intention to commit murder, she shifted the blame onto Justin, hoping to sow discord and strain relations between Justin and the Hoffmans, all to garner Logan’s support for herself.
“Justin, this issue concerns the reputations of two influential families. You must not treat it lightly!”
Suddenly, Shannon took on the role of a concerned matriarch, expressed her concern for the younger generation, and emphasized the need to consider the broader implications. “We understand that you’ve always felt indebted to Ms. Thompson because of the divorce. Naturally, you’d want to help her seek justice…”
“Seek justice? Mrs. Salvador, how did you come up with such
accusations?”
Liam became increasingly dissatisfied as he questioned Justin with furrowed brows. “When have we ever offended you that you’d take it out on us? Are we supposed to be your punching bags? Don’t
overstep your boundaries!”
Liam’s words sparked resentment among the Hoffman family members. Their gazes toward Justin were hostile.
“Oh dear, Mr. Liam, you’ve misunderstood. There’s no bad blood
between Justin and the Hoffmans. In fact, Justin is best friends with
Ryan.”
Shannon’s lips curled into a sly smile, and her cold gaze turned
toward Bella. “It’s Ms. Thompson who holds a grudge against the Hoffmans. Everyone in Savrow knows that Ms. Thompson and Ms. Hoffman are always at odds. Given Ms. Thompson’s recent accident and their nearly losing the competition to the Hoffmans, it’s understandable that she feels unsettled. Justin, your desire to help Ms. Thompson seek justice is perfectly justifiable.”
Everyone was stunned.
It was obvious to everyone that Bella and Zoe were not on good terms. But to seek revenge by directly tarnishing the Hoffman family’s reputation was a despicable tactic.
Wyatt’s face turned pale, his lips pressed into a thin line. He did not even want to interact with the despicable and shameless Shanno
Just as Justin and Asher were about to speak, someone else spoke
up first.
“Shannon, it’s surprising that after all these years, you still haven’t
learned your place.”
The timid Celeste stepped forward, and her clear eyes were sharp.
“Over twenty years ago, you enjoyed causing trouble, and now, two decades later, you’re still resorting to such despicable and malicious actions. You’re not fit for upper-class society! But you’ve chosen the wrong target this time. Bella has always been dazzling. Her numerous acts of kindness earned her widespread respect in the Hatchbay
community. Your attempts to tarnish her reputation won’t succeed.
I’m also not the same Celeste you once manipulated. You can insult
or degrade me with that venomous tongue of yours, but don’t even try thinking of harming Bella the same way!”
The revelation left everyone shocked.
Celeste, known for her gentle nature, had spoken with an unexpected aggression, making it probably the harshest thing she had ever said.
She did not step forward to defend herself but chose to do so because she could not bear seeing Bella bullied by this vile woman.
“Aunt Celeste…” Bella’s voice was choked with emotion. She was on
the verge of tears.
“Heh! Mrs. Thompson, when have ever spread rumors about you? You shouldn’t spew nonsense like that.”
Shannon shrugged, feigning innocence while delivering cutting remarks. “Every word I’ve spoken is the truth, isn’t it? It was you wh failed to uphold your moral standards by succumbing to the
temptation of forbidden drugs, resulting in you pissing yourself and tarnishing your reputation. Who pressured or forced you into doing that? If you were truly innocent back then, why didn’t you present evidence to clear your name? Why did you choose to disappear from the entertainment industry completely?”
She continued, “And now, do you think you’re different because you’re the esteemed Third Madam of the Thompson family? Especially since you’ve given birth to a daughter for Chairman Thompson? Do you think that everything has changed? Is that why you’ve seized this opportunity to come forward, hoping to exploit the Thompson family’s power to seek revenge and vent your frustrations? Hahaha…

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson)
If you are about to start reading this “ongoing” book….don’t. It’s a great read but mo regular updates and leaves you hanging. Took me months to get to chapter 2370 (this app only has it to chapter 2368….learned to search different links to read ahead a bit). These ongoing books are just not worth the time since their author (s) take days/weeks to upload new chapters. Again great sultry, long drawn out at times, but not worth the frustration of no new updates....
No update in 6 days!!! Really??? I’m about over this story and ready to move on, the wait is to long....
Pls update regularly or least let us know why it's taking so long...
Ok I was thinking last night. I really hope the author hasn’t been affected by hurricane Helene. Not sure where they are located but I hope everyone is safe...
It’s been 87 years since the update with only 2 chapters. 🙄...
