The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson) novel Chapter 2472

The board meeting concluded, and the members dispersed.

News spread like wildfire. Grant Salvador had secured his presidency, while Bella Thompson had officially joined the board of directors.

After the meeting, Bella accompanied Nigel back to Crescent Bay. Justin, however, stayed behind to handle company matters. With Ian following closely, he strode toward the chairman’s office. His starry eyes were sharp, and his presence was unwavering.

“Hey, hey! Bella’s on the board now. Does that mean she’s siding with Justin to take down our new president?”

In a secluded corner, hushed voices whispered. “I heard they haven’t been seen together for a long time. They probably broke up. But at the last press conference, Bella openly went against President Grant. She looked ready to stand by Justin’s side. So, are they together or not?”

“For people like them, business comes first. Even if they broke up, they can still be allies. No one turns their back on benefits.”

“But I thought they were true love…”

“True love? In a family like that? Don’t make me laugh! Besides, I don’t think Bella joined the board for Justin’s sake.”

Justin’s steps faltered. His brows drew together, and a shadow passed over his gaze.

“Think about it. Who holds the real power in Salvador Corporation? Grant. Even after that massive PR crisis, his position is unshaken. That means both Chairman Salvador and Old Master Nigel are protecting him. Justin’s already out of the running with no chance of inheriting the corporation.”

Oblivious to the impending storm, the employee continued with growing excitement.

“Bella broke up with Justin. She has her own family’s interests to consider. In the end, she’ll align with the stronger side. Unless, she’s hopelessly in love. But that wouldn’t make sense, right? They already—”

“Ahem!” Ian cleared his throat loudly to interrupt the conversation.

The gossipers froze. Their bodies stiffened against the wall, and their faces drained of color as they held their breath.
