The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson) novel Chapter 20

Chapter 20 

Bella woke up and vomited again the next day. 

“Bella, I remember that you used to be able to hold your alcohol. How did you get so drunk last night?” Axel hurriedly handed her a glass of water to rinse her mouth and brought over some hangover medicine. 

“I haven’t touched alcohol in the past three years… So naturally, I’d get drunk after drinking so much all of a sudden last night.” 

Bella knew that Justin did not like women who smelled like alcohol, so she gave up drinking in the three years since she was married to him. 

“I know you’re drunk, but those who don’t will think that you have morning sickness.” Axel teased 

her. 

“Ha… If I was really pregnant with Justin’s child, what would you guys do?” There was a hint of grief in Bella’s eyes. 

“What else can we do? We’ll help you raise the kid, of course! No matter what, that kid is innocent.” 

Although Axel hated Justin with all his heart, he was still righteous. This was probably his professional ethics as a prosecutor. 

“Don’t worry. I won’t carry his child. He’s not worth it!” Bella sneered and drank some water to clear 

her throat. 

Axel said, “By the way, do you remember what happened last night?” 

“I remember finding trouble with Zeke Gold. I think Justin came over at some point, but I don’t remember what happened after.” 

“You really don’t remember?” 

“I think I saw another handsome guy who came to help me out. Ugh! I was too drunk at the time. Otherwise, I would’ve asked for his number!” 

“That’s Ryan Hoffman. ACE is his new club.” 

Bella lost all interest when she heard this infamous name. “Never mind. I’m not interested in him.” 

“Did you know that Justin dragged you into the men’s bathroom after that?” 

Bella’s eyes widened. “What?!” 

“I don’t know what you two did in there. When I came in, you were hugging him and blowing your nose on his shirt.” Axel shook his head when he thought about that embarrassing scene. 

Bella gasped. 

“If I didn’t arrive in time to take you away, that jerkface might have…” 

“He won’t. Justin is not like Ryan.” Bella held her forehead in frustration. 

“Why are you defending him?!” 

“I’m not. I just think he’s a decent man. He’s just heartless to me.” After Bella said this, she could not help but feel heartbroken. 

“Oh, but that jerk actually asked me if I would marry you. He even told me not to play with your feelings. She said that you’re a regular girl and can’t bear being hurt again.” 

Axel sneered. “He’s so full of himself! Why does he think that he can stick his nose into your business?” 

“Wait, why did he mention this to you for no reason?” 

“That’s because he mistook me for Asher, so I just played along and told him not to touch my girl. That jerk is probably angry.” Axel was smug. 

“What the hell!” Bella was infuriated and punched Axel’s handsome face. 

Steven prepared a delicious and hearty breakfast because he knew that Bella was hungover. 

Bella went downstairs wearing a pink silk nightgown. Her long hair was hanging loose on her shoulders. Although she was wearing a bra, she still looked sexy. 

Steven blushed and quickly looked away, not daring to take a closer look.
