lan rushed over with red and teary eyes, appearing as if he had just cried.
As Justin's most loyal secretary, lan had witnessed his boss carrying a heavy burden of hatred throughout their journey, enduring hardships and obstacles to reach this moment. When the judge announced the verdict, he burst into tears outside the courtroom, crying as if he were a baby.
"Is everything outside taken care of?” Justin asked with a faint smile, his hand around Bella.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlan nodded enthusiastically, his voice still trembling with excitement. "Yes, everything is settled. By the way, my phone has been ringing non-stop. Almost all the famous media outlets across the country have sent interview invitations to you!" "I never accept any interview invitations," Justin replied calmly.
"I knew it! So, I politely declined them all on your behalf!" His excited emotions still unsettled, lan continued, "By the way, considering the recent events, would you like to hold a press conference? After all, your mother's identity is now fully exposed, and your previously less-than-ideal status as an illegitimate child is now proven false. So, what do you think? Should we hold a press conference to clear your mother's nand yours?" Bella lifted her head and gazed deeply at the exceptionally handsman, her gaze carrying a hint of complexity.
"During this period, Bella has worked hard for me, and I haven't had much tto accompany her properly. Now that the big revenge is over, I don't have the mood to hold any press conferences. I just want to be with Bella. I would like us to go out and relax." Justin rubbed her forehead against Bella's intimately as they both smiled.
Indeed, they were delighted. Everything seemed so clear and bright. Even the air around them felt sweet.
"It's not like that... We managed to bring Shannon down this tbecause of your meticulous efforts. I didn't do much," Bella shyly pressed her cherry lips together, unwilling to take credit at a moment like this.
"Bella, if it weren't for you and your family setting aside past grievances to help me, my path of revenge wouldn't have been so smooth, nor would it have ended so perfectly. I owe you and your family forever. In the future, if any of your family members need help, I will spare no effort to assist them." Justin pledged each word solemnly, his gaze sparkling like stars in the dark sky. Bella's beautiful almond eyes curved into crescents as she tiptoed to peck Justin's lips, causing a tingling sensation in his chest. The desire in his eyes surged, and his large palm, resting on her slender waist, restlessly caressed her.
"But I heard that Chairman Salvador is already preparing to abandon Shannon and will issue a statement on behalf of the corporation in the upcoming days. I wonder if he will acknowledge your mother's identity." As lan thought about Shannon, that wicked woman, who had arrogantly held onto Mary's status for so long, he felt a deep-seated resentment.
Justin's expression darkened instantly. "I don't need Gregory to acknowledge my mother's identity. She's only my mother and has no relation to the entire Salvador family or Gregory. I don't want my mother's nto be associated with that man's name. It feels like an insult to my mother." Bella sighed softly, her heart aching.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven though they had avenged Justin's mother, she would not cback to life. He had let go of his hatred, but the pain in his heart would never heal.
That meant he and Gregory would never reconcile.
"Although I won't hold any press conferences or issue any statements, I'll establish a charity foundation in my mother's nto care for women and children who have suffered hardships in society. This foundation belongs only toand my mother, with no relation to the Salvadors." "Once you establish the foundation, I'll be the first to donate." Bella held Justin's large palms with her soft hands. Facing each other, she playfully shook his arms from side to side, exuding a girly innocence. "I'll donate a lot, but not in the nof the Thompson family. I'll donate in my own name." "Bella, you don't have to do it. Your intention to do so is more than enough." Justin loved her so much that he wanted to give her everything he had. How could he possibly use his wife's savings to get money? How dare he try to freeload off Bella when he has not even married into their wealthy family? "Hehe! Actually, I'm here to tell you both sgreat news!" lan's face lit up as if he had just relieved years of constipation. He was smiling with relief. "Just now, right at the courthouse entrance, a group of righteous individuals beat Hunter up. He was bleeding from his head and passed out. The court's security personnel had to take him to the hospital." Bella's eyes turned icy as she shook her head. "He brought this upon himself. He can't blanyone else for this." "Hunter has been doing all sorts of despicable things these years, trying to please various powerful figures, committing countless atrocities behind the scenes, trampling on the rights of ordinary civilians, exploiting legaloopholes to exonerate those wealthy merchants, and aiding and abetting them in their wrongdoing. Now, his own demons have finally consumed him." Justin's expression turned stern. "This is the consequence of associating yourself with villains and being complicit in their deeds." "And that's not all!" lan's eyes sparkled with excitement.
"I've heard that now, in the whole of Savrow, the bosses of more than a dozen law firms have united to ne the report Hunter's numerous crimes of abusing power and being an accomplice to the wealthy to Ministry of Justice and the Bark Association. The Ministry of Justice has already initiated an investigation against him, and the Bar Association will revoke his lawyer's license soon! Hmph! That Hunter guy, who can't even keep his mouth shut when he's eating shit, is finally experiencing the bitterness of defeat. Everyone is turning against him now." Bella and Justin exchanged a smile.
People like Hunter, who have committed so many wrongdoings, do not even need their intervention to take him down. There are plenty of people queueing up to take him down.
"By the way, lan, did you see Axel when you cover from there?" Bella noticed that everyone was present except for the great hero, Axel.
"Ah, I didn't run into Young Master Axel, but I did meet Ms. Roza!" "Roza? She's here?!" The couple exchanged surprised glances.
At this moment, Axel held a large bouquet of vibrant sunflowers, symbolizing victory. He grabbed his colleague who brought him the flowers and urgently asked, “Um, that girl who asked you to handthe flowers... Where did she go?!"
