Chapter 716
Justin gradually understood something since he fell in love with Bella.
Bella was like a porcupine. She always wore a frowning face to him. and acted tough, with spikes, but in reality, she had a soft heart that
was sincere and kind.
He no longer had anything that could attract her. He could only shamelessly pester her to drag it out, cherishing every moment.
In the past, she was the one who suffered grievances and seized every second to be by his side.
Now, it was his turn.
In the end, Bella could not leave the ward and decided to stay.
“Don’t misunderstand me. I didn’t stay because of you. It’s because
I’ve promised Grandpa Nigel and Carrie.”
Bella steadied her mind and sat up beside the bed. “I’ll rest next door
tonight. Call me if you need anything.”
Justin quickly grabbed her hand. “Bella, sleep here tonight.”
“The couch is uncomfortable. I can’t sleep.” Bella wanted to pull her
hand away, but he held it firmly.
“We will sleep in the bed.” Justin’s voice was low, as if he were
coaxing her.
“Justin, do you have no shame?” Bella regretted not bringing a tape
measure along in her pocket. She would like to see how thick this.
man’s skin was!
“Don’t misunderstand, Bella. If you’re unwilling, I won’t force you,
though I really want you…”
Amidst his words, Justin could not help but lean towards her, fire
burning in his body.
Want her? In his dreams!
“You stink! Don’t come near me!”
Bella moved backward to hide from Justin, pinching her nose in
disdain. “I don’t want to sleep in the same room with you. I’m afraid
I’ll faint in the middle of the night due to the stench.”
“Do I stink? It’s not that bad.”
Justin picked up the hem of his sleeves and sniffed. “When I was in
the army, the conditions were terrible at the camp, and I could barely
shower once a week. It was much worse than this. After I returned to
the Salvador Corporation, I could bathe every day. I wasn’t used to it
at first.”
Bella’s eyelashes fluttered.
His past, the hardships he endured… Aside from himself, Bella was probably the one who understood it the best.
Bella did not look down on Justin, but the knot in her heart was hard
to unravel. Even though he held sincere feelings for her now, she could not persuade herself to take a step toward him.
She once admired him, throwing herself at him like a moth to a flame. When he destroyed all of her love and passion, it was truly difficult to
reignite her heart.
“Bella, I’ll wipe my body quickly. Wait for me.
Justin was afraid that Bella would find it unacceptable to share

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. 🙄...
