Chapter 23
“Justin, have you found out what happened?” Gregory asked with a frown as he comforted his wife.
“I found out. The person who exposed this news is the newly appointed general manager of KS World Hotel, Bella Thompson.”
Justin lowered his eyelids, deliberately avoiding the loving couple in front of him.
In his memory, Gregory had never shown such tenderness to his mother or to him. Perhaps Gregory had already forgotten what Justin’s mother looked like.
“The Thompson family from Hatchbay?!”
Shannon covered her mouth and exclaimed, “That’s the richest family in Hatchbay! How could my sister’s family offend them?!”
“We have never had any interactions with the Thompson family because our forefathers had a deep grudge against each other. Wyatt Thompson’s great-grandmother swore an oath that no one in the Thompson family could ever marry a Salvador. Anyone who disobeys this will be disowned by the Thompson family and will not be allowed to inherit anything.”
Justin did not care about this because the person he wanted to marry was Rosalind, not Bella Thompson.
However, after hearing what his father said, he felt a slight chill in his heart.
“OMG! The Thompsons must be targeting Gold Corporation so that they can indirectly target us, especially since Rose will be marrying Justin soon. They are so petty!” Shannon angrily clenched the silk handkerchief in her hand.
“Justin, you should see Ms. Thompson tomorrow and find a way to stop her from attacking the Golds. This isn’t just their problem now. It’ll also affect our family’s reputation!” Gregory’s tone was extremely stern.
“Oh, Greg, don’t be so stern with Justin. He has always been an obedient child.” Shannon massaged her husband’s shoulder and spoke in a soft voice.
“I’m only saving the Gold family for Rose’s sake. It has nothing to do with anyone else, Aunt Shannon.”
Justin’s charming eyes were deep and cold. After saying that, he turned around and left.
Shannon turned pale with anger.
She was the wife of Salvador Corporation’s chairman, but Justin still called her Aunt Shannon. What an insult!
“Stop! Why are you still calling her Aunt Shannon? Shannon is know your manners?!” Gregory stood up and yelled.
my
wife and your mother. Don’t you
Justin stopped, but he did not turn around. “You can have several wives, but I will only have one mother. So don’t make things difficult for me.”
Asher went to Savrow to see Bella that night. During dinner, they talked about Michael Gordon and the Gold family.
“Dad already knows your strategy, and he didn’t object. He only said we shouldn’t let them get away with it if what happened was true and the evidence was conclusive.” Asher helped his sister cut up her
steak.
“Wyatt is such a scumbag when it comes to women, but he’s very capable in other aspects.” Bella ate a piece of medium-rare steak and squinted her clear eyes while chewing.
“That’s why our three stepmothers are so devoted to him. Apart from being a playboy, Dad is a good person. He hasn’t mistreated any of his wives.”
“Right. No one will ever know the woes of the dead anyway, since stories are only told by those who are alive.” Bella lowered her eyelashes and stabbed her fork into the steak.
Asher stared at his sister’s eyes, which were gradually turning red. He stroked the top of her head and said, “I know that you no longer hate our stepmothers. You just can’t let go of the past, and you still feel that it’s unfair for our mother. But Bella, have you ever thought that maybe Mom would have stopped blaming Dad a long time ago?
“How can I not resent him? I’m sure his wives are just putting up with him. No woman will be able to
share her husband with other women…”
Bella’s breath hitched.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson)
I am reading this book from last year. Its very long story but at start i find enjoyable.Still there is no closure , dragging the story and the writer is running out of ideas. Its frustrating that they don't upload chapters regularly....
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. 🙄...
Why is it taking so long to update chapters....
