Drew asked, “Grant’s uncle? Bella, what does this person have to do with you?”
Bella gazed up at the moon; her eyes were cold and unwavering. “I’ve always suspected that Lucas and Grant were secretly close; perhaps they are secretly collaborating on some unfathomable conspiracy.
“I believe he’s a key breakthrough point. Getting close to him and uncovering his whereabouts could finally expose Grant’s true colors and the secrets he’s been hiding.”
“Bella, you could have lived a carefree and happy life,” Drew said as he looked at her sadly. “But for Justin’s sake, you always put yourself in the line of danger.”
“I can’t just sit still. A calm and peaceful life doesn't suit my free-spirited soul,” Bella replied softly. “Right now, looking at the Salvador family, it’s clear the only real obstacle is Grant. If we can’t expose his true colors, he’ll continue to guilt-trip Justin under the guise of being his savior.
“On top of that, he would secretly play the victim to win over Chairman Salvador. If this continues, Justin's position would be in danger. It’s like walking on thin ice. Besides, Justin is too kindhearted and overvalues loyalty. He’ll always end up suffering for it.”
Looking at Bella’s determined expression, Drew felt his eyes well up with tears.
Bella was a determined and resilient person, willing to push herself to the limit and endure difficulties. But she could not bear to see her loved ones suffer, not even the slightest.
She brought the conversation back on track. “Lucas was secretly swapped out of Savrow’s Fifth Prison by Grant. The man serving his sentence in his place is Jonah Ziegler, who has been made a scapegoat. The fact that this has gone unnoticed for so long shows they have insiders within the police and that the prison staff have been thoroughly bribed.”
She continued, “If we try to investigate publicly through the officials, it’ll only lead to more problems. If this scandal leaks, it will spark a massive scandal across the justice system in Savrow. The higher-ups would surely pressure them, ultimately leading to a cover-up. The scapegoat would likely lose his life, and we’d lose any chance of catching Grant off guard in the future.”
Drew’s expression grew solemn as he nodded. “I understand.”
“Grant went to such great lengths to protect Lucas, which means this man is extremely important to him.” Bella frowned, deep in thought. “But the Fowler family has long since fallen. What value could a convicted murderer like him, who’s spent years rotting in prison, possibly offer Grant? That’s the question I need to figure out.”

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. 🙄...
