Chapter 3
The Rolls-Royce drove to Yara Park, which was the Thompson family’s residence in Hatchbay.
The car stopped in the middle of the red carpet that was laid out at the front entrance. In the center stood Axel Thompson, Bella’s second brother. He opened the car door for Bella and greeted her.
“Welcome home, Princess!”
Bella looked stunning under the bright lights in the mansion. She had taken off her sneakers and changed into stilettos earlier in the car. When she got out of the car, she looked like a proud queen.
“Ax, how have you been?”
“I’m fine, but I’m feeling much better now that you’re back! Are the fireworks nice? My birthday gift for you has gone viral online!” Axel’s handsome face was filled with excitement.
“Yeah, I saw it. People are saying that you’re a filthy rich bastard trying to win over someone’s heart. That’s quite an achievement, huh?” Bella clapped her hands and smiled brightly at Axel.
Axel ignored her mockery and hugged her tightly.
“Bella, you won’t leave again, right?”
“Where else will I go now that I’m divorced?”
Bella patted her second brother’s back and sighed in relief. “Well, I’ve let everyone down. I thought I could win him over if I put all my effort into this marriage. But in the end, I failed miserably.”
Only God knew how devastated she was at the moment. She wanted to cry, but she held back.
Bella swore that she would never shed another tear for Justin after she left Tideview Manor because
he was not worth it.
“That asshole! How dare he cheat on my sister?! I’ll start a thorough investigation on Salvador Corporation tomorrow and get your fourth brother to assassinate Justin when he’s free!”
When Asher heard this, he lowered his eyelids and said, “Amen.”
“Ax, don’t create trouble! You’re a public prosecutor!” Bella laughed bitterly. “Can you be a little more ‘peace and love’ like Ash?”
“What the fuck! Your eldest brother only became a saint after he stopped being a mobster!” Axel tugged on his tie angrily. “Anyway, I won’t let this go! I won’t stand by and watch Justin bully my sister. The Salvadors are on my radar now.”
Bella held Asher and Axel’s hands as she walked into the home she had not returned to in a long time.
When Wyatt Thompson, the chairman of KS Group, heard that his daughter was back, he could not hide his joy and paced around the study excitedly.
“Wyatt, I’m back!”

When Wyatt Thompson, the chairman of KS Group, heard that his daughter was back, he could not hide his joy and paced around the study excitedly.
“Wyatt, I’m back!”
Bella walked into the study with her two brothers. She no longer had to act demure, like she did when she was living with the Salvadors. Now, she simply lay on the sofa, lifted her legs, and kicked off her high heels.
Asher sat down next to her and started to give his sister a foot rub.
“Can you sit properly? Did you join Doctors Without Borders or the militants?”
Wyatt deliberately kept a straight face. He was always at odds with Bella. He would miss her when she was not around, but when she was at home, he would always get agitated.
“Are you showing signs of Alzheimer’s? I used to sit like this all the time!”
Bella raised her eyelids and looked up at the wall. Her heart trembled when she saw the “poem” she had written more than ten years ago hanging there.
Unexpectedly, her father actually framed it.
The first line of the poem was: Were you trying to emulate Henry VIII with all your wives?
The second line was: Here’s hoping that your heart doesn’t go into overdrive!
The final line was: One day, you’ll pay your penance.
This was the wedding “gift” that Bella gave to her father when he got married for the third time.
Wyatt Thompson had four wives, which had become the talk of the town.
Bella was dissatisfied with her father’s polygyny, so she went abroad and joined Doctors Without Borders, helping the world in her own way.
“The first thing you do after three years of being out in the wild is curse me to get Alzheimer’s. How considerate of you!” Wyatt shouted angrily.
“Thanks for the compliment, Daddy!” Bella pretended not to understand Wyatt’s sarcasm and smiled
sweetly at him.
“Dad, now that Bella is back, some things should be expedited.” Asher put on his sister’s shoes and said seriously, “I decided to give up my position as CEO of KS Group to Bella.”
Bella narrowed her eyes and stared at her eldest brother’s handsome side profile.
“You!” Wyatt was so angry that he did not know what to say for a moment.
“I only promised to run KS Group for 3 years. Now that the three-year period is up, I’m going back to the church. As you know, being a CEO isn’t my ambition. My lifelong dream is to become a pastor.” At this moment, Asher radiated such holiness and determination that his decision seemed unquestionable.
“Fine, if you don’t want to be CEO, then Ax can take over!” Wyatt was forced to choose his second son.
“No, no, no, no, no! I’m a public servant, so I can’t hold such positions in a conglomerate. Otherwise, I’ll get suspended!” Axel quickly deflected this responsibility. His face turned pale with fright.
Wyatt was vexed. What was the point of having so many sons if none of them were willing to take over the family business?
His health was deteriorating by the year, and he had long planned to retire. But none of his children were capable enough to inherit his business empire.
Wyatt had an old-fashioned belief that his heir should be one of his sons.

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....
Do u have plans to update more chapters or the story just end on Chapter 2270? It's been a while that no more chapter has been loaded yet. ty...
Pls update...
Please update. Thanks and more power!...
