Chapter 857 Justin's words, though devoid of any profanity, felt like a sharp blade piercing through Bella, leaving her with a bloody wound.
“Justin, I've never trampled on your dignity. After our divorce, wasn't it you who ccrawling back every time, unable to accept reality?” Bella's eyes subtly reddened, yet she defiantly flashed a smile that could infuriate even the calmest soul. “Your dignity is something you willingly discarded. How dare you have the audacity to blme for it now?” She thought to herself, ‘I shouldn't have chere. | shouldn't have bothered about his condition! Justin, you deserve to wallow in your own misery!” Justin's breath hitched. Suddenly, he felt dizzy, and his towering figure swayed slightly.
“Hey! What the hell are you doing?!” Swoosh! Before Justin could speak, a pebble, aimed with precision, struck Justin at the back of his head.

Meanwhile, Arnold stormed toward Justin, aiming to grab the collar of his shirt.
However, Justin's reflexes were lightning-fast.
He deftly dodged to the side, leaving Arnold to grasp at thin air as he stumbled forward several meters. With his naturally long limbs, he resembled a mantis poised to strike.
Bella, who had been quite furious, could not help but stifle a laugh at Arnold's comical mishap. She pressed her lips tightly together.
Justin's brows furrowed, his hands reaching to rub the back of his neck. A hint of sinister allure now tinged his handsfeatures.
“Is that all you've got? Sneaking up on someone from behind?” “Sneaking up on someone from behind? I'd rather do that than resort to assaulting women in the dark!” Arnold dusted himself off and got up from the ground, still shaken by Justin's reaction earlier. “You're already divorced, yet you still resort to violence? You're the mighty president of the Salvador Corporation. Is that all you've got?” “What exactly is your relationship with her?” Justin stared at Arnold with cold eyes.
This feminine-looking guy dared to lay hands on him for Bella, so Justin thought that he must also hold Bella in high regard.

“I chere specifically for your condition this time,” Bella said calmly, her gaze steady as she looked at Justin, devoid of any extra emotion, like a doctor examining a patient.
The distant look in her eyes only fueled Justin’s irritation.
“I'm not sick,” Justin responded coldly.
“Don’t act tough. You know better than anyone whether you're sick or not.” Bella spoke solemnly. “Previously, you suffered a severe head injury. Although | performed surgery on you, it wasn't entirely successful. Whenever you get emotional, your body will tremble involuntarily, and your actions will becuncontrollable. Over time, you may start hallucinating and even lose consciousness. If it gets serious, you may becparalyzed. Do you really want to end up like that? Arent you afraid of how devastated Grandpa would be if he found out?” Arnold looked at Bella in disbelief.
Justin's brain surgery... She was the one who operated on him?! How unbelievable!
