Chapter 662
“Carrie slowly looked up, her clear eyes meeting Bella’s gaze.
She did not say one word.
However, Bella could read the answer in Carrie’s eyes.
“It’s not every day Carrie falls for a boy and stands her ground for him, Bella. Just give her a break. If being with Ryan makes her happy and comfortable, let them get along and see where it takes them.”
Justin looked over and offered words of comfort with a hint of
pleading in her ear.
“I can tell that Carrie has feelings for him. I’m not trying to break them
“I get it. I understand.”
Justin let out an understanding smile. His usual stoic expression
beamed only for her. “But don’t forget that Carrie has you and m
His response was brief but strong.
Bella felt butterflies and looked away.
Such was Justin. There was no bullshit with him. He kept his words
short but effective.
Apart from Wyatt and Celeste-the star of the night-the whole family
sat at Bella’s table.
Justin stubbornly would not leave the seat beside Bella. Despite the
angry and contemptuous stares, he remained unfazed and still.
He was unashamed and unapologetic.
“Your seat isn’t here, Mr. Salvador.”
Ralph narrowed his eyes at Justin’s composed face and snapped at
him as if he were interrogating a suspect. “The table here is for our family and close friends. Who are you to sit here?”
It was silent at the table as all eyes were on Justin.
Faced with scrutiny, the man merely curled his lips and looked deep into the eyes of the woman, who had remained indifferent to the
situation.
“My seat is next to wherever Bella sits.”
Bella nearly choked. She turned her head and snapped an angry look at Justin, who did not seem to think that his comment was
inappropriate.
“Tsk!” Ralph averted his gaze and downed his drink..
“Hmph! I don’t know what the house rules are for the Salvadors, but here, we don’t let our dogs near the dinner table.” Sasha’s words were
biting.
Sasha crossed her legs and sank her back against the seat while tapping the table. She sure looked like a mafia boss.
Justin tensed his jawline.
No one would be happy to be called less than a human.
Although he loved Bella and wanted to leave a good impression on
her family, there was no reason for the Thompsons to trample on his
dignity.
“Enough. Grandpa Nigel is here tonight. At least show him some
respect. Let’s just enjoy dinner.” Bella stood up for Justin, as her family had gone out of line.
“Ms. Bella.”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson)
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. 🙄...
