Ian noticed the somber look on Justin’s face and leaned forward, speaking earnestly. “Mr. Salvador, everyone in this world is constantly changing. You need to keep a close eye on Mr. Grant and be ready to fight back if necessary. While you can return his kindness, that shouldn’t ever become an excuse for him to manipulate or intimidate you!”
After a moment of silence, Ian added, “Actually, there is one thing in this world that I believe will never change.”
Justin looked up and asked, “What is it?”
“Young Madam’s love for you.”
Justin’s long lashes trembled slightly, and an obscure emotion churned within his chest.
…
Three days had passed.
Bella had been transferred from the intensive care unit to a regular ward. Fortunately, after a comprehensive examination, no lasting complications were found after she regained consciousness. However, both her hands had been badly affected by frostbite and were now wrapped in bandages following treatment.
She tried to make light of it, joking that her hands now looked like pig trotters.
Asher, who had rushed back from the Sentania and stayed by her bedside, could not muster a smile.
“Ash, why did you come back?” Bella tried to sit up, but Asher gently pushed her back down. “Where’s Arnold? Have you found him yet?”
Asher’s gaze shifted, his voice hoarse. “No. I tracked him down twice, but he left before I got there. He’s avoiding me on purpose.”
Hearing this, Bella felt a pang of sorrow.
Her brother—the best man in the world—gave his all for her and the Thompson family. Yet, when it came to simply loving someone, why was it so difficult for him?
Perhaps their family was cursed with some ancient, unbreakable cycle of heartbreak.
“Bella, this time, you really went too far.” Asher’s deep concern and lingering fear finally gave way to an uncharacteristic flash of anger as he looked at his beloved younger sister. “At the end of the day, Justin is just a man! You’re the Thompson family’s heiress! Was breaking up with him really worth risking your life over? When you lost the will to live, did you even think about us, about Dad, or about your mother’s spirit watching over you from above? She’s always watching you. Seeing you like this—disregarding your own health—do you think she can rest peacefully?”
At that moment, Steven walked into the room. Seeing Asher reprimand Bella for the first time, Steven felt a wave of discomfort wash over him.
“Ash, now I truly see how strong you are. You’re a born leader. I really admire you.” Bella looked at her injured hands, and her eyes reddened as a lump formed in her throat. “And I... I’m just a nobody.”

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. 🙄...
