Chapter 487
Bella’s forceful questioning seemed to have ripped off Hunter’s veil
and labeled him ungrateful.
Bella thought to herself; ‘Did you not want to distance yourself from
the Thompsons? Alright, then. I’ll bring up exactly what you didn’t
want to be mentioned and expose the thoughts you didn’t want to see
the light of day for everyone to see!’
Hunter’s lips were pressed tightly together, and though they still held
the semblance of a smile, his gaze toward Bella was not at all friendly.
In fact, his gaze had turned cold.
Hunter thought, ‘This was the woman my brother Steven was so
smitten with? A sarcastic, willful, sharp-tongued shrew?! If Steven married a troublesome woman like that, would our family have any
more peaceful days in the future? Would it not be chaos?!’
The atmosphere became tense and awkward.
Gregory Salvador felt that Bella Thompson was pretty much the bane
of his existence. Every time he saw her, she just had to make trouble.
Hunter’s capability as a lawyer was unquestionable. Gregory always
wanted to take Hunter under his wing, but he had not known Hunter
had such a connection to the Thompsons, which made him very
uncomfortable.
“So it turns out that Mr. Lovett had such a past with the Thompsons
that no one knew about.”

Justin’s words were directed toward Hunter, but his deep gaze never
left Bella. “And it looks like Ms. Thompson is the daughter of your
benefactor. Is this how you repay kindness, Mr. Lovett? By butting
heads with Ms. Thompson over and over.”
Bella could not help but frown as she digested what Justin said.
Was he standing up for her? Was he taking the side of an outsider,
hers, in front of his family?
He had never taken her side, even when they had been husband and
wife. Was he doing an about-face and trying to make it up to her?
Bella thought, ‘That’s not necessary! He must be mad!’
Upon hearing this, Nigel frowned even more deeply.
“Ha! Ms. Thompson, so according to you, I can’t be a lawyer just
because I, as a Lovett, received the kindness of your family? Is that
it?”
Hunter would not just stand there and let himself be mocked. A fake
smile appeared on his face. “I am a professional. In my eyes, there
are only two kinds of people-clients and non-clients. Ms. Bethany
Salvador is my client, so of course, I have to do my best for her.
There’s nothing wrong with that, is there? If you hired me, Ms.
Thompson, I’d fulfill my duties in the same way. This has nothing to
do with any repayment of kindness, don’t you think so?”
Justin’s fist clenched and his eyes darkened at the sight of Hunter’s
secretly smug expression.
“Oh, my! I wouldn’t dare to hire you, O great Mr. Lovett!”

Bella hurriedly waved her hands with a shocked look. “Such an amazing lawyer as you would be a double-edged sword. One day you’d be helping me fight my case, but the next, you’d be helping
others sue me, wouldn’t you?”
As Bella spoke, she poked her face. “You won’t even give my family
the slightest bit of consideration even though my father is your
father’s benefactor, after all. How could a mere girl such as I amount
