The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson) novel Chapter 1248

Some people were devastated, while others basked in triumph.

Christopher came over and pretended that he had just found out about the news. He sat upright, waiting anxiously in the living room.

“Damn, right after we sent Justin away, here comes the snake, Christopher! What curse has befallen our little sister to deserve this? Was she a traitor in her previous life?!”

Axel and Asher were on the second floor, looking down. Axel was fuming, while Asher gave Christopher a cold stare, his hand gripping the railing tightly with veins popping out.

"The dinner was such a significant event, but the most favored young master of the Iverson family chose not to attend. His eagerness to show up when Bella got into trouble is suspicious.” Axel continued, “Hmph! Based on my extensive experience as a prosecutor, I’m convinced that what happened tonight is undoubtedly connected to Christopher! Maybe he’s colluding with Zoe and using that wicked girl to his advantage!”

“I think so too. But Christopher is cunning and skilled at manipulating others to do his dirty work.” Asher’s cold, piercing gaze remained fixed on Christopher’s face. “He’s already made sure to cover his tracks before putting his plan into action. I’m afraid he has already gotten rid of the evidence. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have shown up here so confidently tonight. He probably thinks he has nothing to worry about.”

“Damn it! It’s like a wolf walking into a chicken coop on New Year’s!” Axel exclaimed in frustration. “As brothers, we have three heads and six arms combined. Are we just going to stare at this demon without taking any action?”

At this moment, Wyatt arrived with Celeste and Quentin to see Christopher.

“Uncle Wyatt, Madam Celeste.” Christopher quickly stood up and bowed. His gentle and polite appearance was exactly what the elders liked.

“Mr. Iverson, my daughter is not feeling well and cannot entertain any guests.”

Celeste noticed the disapproving expression on Wyatt’s face and decided to step in. “I’m sure you’re aware of the unpleasant incident at the banquet tonight. We’re not in the mood to entertain any guests. Please leave.”

Celeste’s sudden order to leave made Christopher visibly upset. His eyes darkened, and he clenched his fists unwillingly. But he maintained his composure and said, “I heard that Bella is not doing well and was having trouble sleeping and eating, so I rushed here overnight to see her.”

He explained patiently, “Uncle Wyatt, please don’t worry. When I was in Sentania, I knew several renowned doctors in the industry. If the local doctors can’t do anything, I can invite them to Hatchbay for a consultation with Bella.”
