The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson) novel Chapter 1466

Justin asked, “Were you peeking again?”

Bella pursed her lips and held the coffee cup in her hands. “Yeah. I was worried you might be in trouble.”

“Was I cool or what?” Justin put his hand on her head and tousled her hair.

Bella leaned closer for a kiss on his cheek. “You were so cool.”

Justin hooked his arm around her waist, his breath brushing against the tip of her nose. “I couldn’t have done it without you today. If you hadn’t put the squeeze on the press as the representative of KS Group, I doubt I could’ve stopped the media all across the city from attending the press conference. Gregory resents me for foiling his plans, but he can’t stand the humiliation the most.”

“Justin.”

After much contemplation, Bella persuaded him. “Promise me that you will try not to get into it with your father once Shannon’s case is over, okay?”

“Are you feeling bad for me?” Justin lifted her chin, his lips curling.

“I’m serious.”

Justin said, “When Shannon gets what she deserves, I promise I won’t go after Gregory so long as he doesn’t bother you and your family.”

Then his phone rang.

He took it out for a look, and a complex of emotions filled his eyes. “It’s Grandpa, Bella. He wants to see us.”

While on the way to Crescent Bay, the pair grew a little worried.

They knew that Nigel always had a soft spot for them.

However, the timing was a little suspicious. Maybe Nigel had found out that Justin ruined Gregory’s press conference. For all they knew, Gregory would have spilled the beans to Nigel, and Nigel was having none of it.
