NovelStartDrew's resolute words sent a chill down Axel’s and Ralph's spines.
Drew could be ruthless and heartless when he wanted to. Even after all these years, his persistent estrangement from Wyatt
showed just how stubborn he could be.
“Drew, there's no need to be so extreme.”
Bella shook her head calmly. “If she sincerely repents and is willing to break free from Christopher's manipulation and cto our
side, | don’t want to make things difficult for her.”
Bella's words caught Drew off guard. “Bella, do you mean...”
“If she’s willing to turn against Christopher and even cwork for me, I'll gladly accept her and find her a position in one of the
group's subsidiaries. She won't have to live that kind of debased life at Pivotage anymore.”

Even Justin was surprised upon hearing Bella's words. “Bella, is that really what you want?”
Axel also frowned. “Even though she helped Drew and provided us with sevidence, it could be a trap set by Christopher and
her to gain our trust. She could be a double agent.”
“If that were true, she would've caused a bigger commotion when Drew infiltrated Pivotage and pretended to resolve it. Then Drew
would have owed her a bigger favor. But she didn’t do that. She genuinely meant to let Drew escape safely and give him pieces of
evidence against Christopher. She was looking for the best possible way to handle things.”
As she spoke, her bright eyes turned toward Drew. Her gaze becthoughtful. “What Yvonne gave Drew was her token of
goodwill and a trump card from Christopher. If she were merely trying to curry favor, she wouldn't take such risks.”
Drew's expression remained indifferent. However, a complex emotion also flashed in his eyes.
Reviewing the documents again, Ralph wondered aloud, “These pieces of evidence are pretty thorough, though. With the internal
power struggles in the Iverson Group being public knowledge, why hasn't Christopher released these to bring James down directly?
Wouldn't holding back like this only allow more complications to happen over time?”
Just as Bella was about to explain, Justin suddenly spoke coldly, “Bella just mentioned that this is Christopher's trump card. As the
eldest son of the Iverson family, James still holds sshares in the Iverson Group. This is his last remaining value. Christopher
intends to use this final leverage at a critical moment to force James to transfer his shares to him, just like he did with Charles.”
Bella looked up at her man. Her eyes brimmed with affection.
“Damn! All those underhanded tricks to climb to power. Yet, no matter how high he gets, he’s still despicable!” Axel spat angrily.
“Exactly! We can’t let that snake have his way.”
Bella then raised her chin with a determined smile. “We need to take James down. We're doing this not only to avenge Ash but also
to turn Christopher's trump card into a worthless one. It’s the faces the trouble he’s brought upon himself.”
Justin's large hand gently caressed the curve of her waist, his gaze fixed on her proud profile, his heart utterly captivated. “Bella,
no matter what decisions or choices you make, I'll support you unconditionally.”

Axel gave Drew a meaningful pat on the shoulder. “Drew, for the sake of our revenge plan, we need you to keep using your
charm.”
Drew lowered his sharp eyes, his lips curling into a faint, enigmatic smile as he turned and left.
After discussing important matters with her brothers and enjoying delicious fried chicken, the couple went upstairs to rest.
Justin was preparing the bathwater in the bathroom while Bella was lighting aromatherapy candles and decanting red wine when
she received a call from Roza.
“Master, how have you been lately?” Roza asked cautiously, afraid of stirring up her emotions.
“Well, a lot of things have been happening, but...”
Bella turned to look at Justin. He was kneeling by the bathtub, meticulously adjusting the water temperature. Upon seeing this, a
wave of warmth filled her heart. “Everything's been fine. And with my man by my side, I'm doing okay.”
