Upon hearing that long-forgotten name, Steven froze for a moment as his mind turned blank.
After a while, his eyes widened in shock, and anger surged in his chest. He took several deep breaths before managing to calm himself.
“Ms. Bella, please don’t mention her name again. That name is like a curse! Just thinking about all the harm she caused you back then makes my blood boil…”
“Those old wounds are in the past,” Bella interrupted calmly. “Let’s focus on the present. Somehow, Clarice reminds me of Rosalind.”
It was ironic, really.
Although Rosalind had been Justin’s childhood friend, someone who grew up alongside him, Bella understood Rosalind better than anyone else in the world.
After Old Master Nigel arranged for Justin to be engaged to Bella, Bella had spent years mimicking Rosalind’s every move in a desperate attempt to win Justin’s favor.
Bella copied her mannerisms, her fashion sense, even her soft, gentle way of speaking.
For those three years, Bella lived in humility, enduring endless compromises and sacrifices. She had been so consumed by the relationship that she had nearly lost her sense of self.
Thankfully, those days were long gone.
She had reclaimed her identity and vowed never to become someone else for anyone ever again.
Steven blinked in surprise. “You suspect there’s some connection between Clarice and Rosalind?”
“I don’t want to jump to conclusions, but aside from their voices and appearances, their mannerisms are eerily alike. Physical features are easy to alter, but habits and personalities are etched into one’s soul. Those are much harder to change.”
Steven nodded in agreement.

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. 🙄...
