What was Bella saying? She seemed to hint that Linny’s death was closely related to Shannon and Bethany.
Justin stared at Bella's discolored, seething face, his hand slipping
around her waist.
Feeling her shudder, Justin pressed his palm against her skin, his
warmth offering assurance and encouragement.
He stood down, not because he did not want to risk his reputation.
Justin understood that Bella needed to stand up to Shannon and
Bethany to overcher resentment and trauma.
Shannon's and Bethany’s faces contorted with horror.
They tried to control the narrative by bringing the press into it. Yet now, they might be shooting themselves in
the foot.
“What are you saying, Ms. Thompson? Don’t tellyou think we
killed Linny,” Shannon pressed with bulging eyes.

“Did | say you killed her? | said nothing of that sort.”
Bella shrugged, her expression taunting. “I said nothing. Why were
you in a hurry to deny everything? Did you have something to do with Linny’s death?”.
The journalists exchanged glances before putting Shannon and
Bethany in the spotlight.
Shannon glared at Bella, wishing she could bite her head off.

Goddamnit! The bitch set her up again.
“Just because you are members of the Salvador family, you boss around, yell, and torture the domestic help.
Don’t try to play the good guys now. Your presence is a nuisance to the living and the dead. | don’t see a
problem telling you karma would get to you one day.” A storm of emotions was brewing in Bella's eyes.
Justin looked at Bella in awe.
His woman sure was intelligent and witty.
Despite knowing that Shannon and Bethany were responsible for Linny’s death, they had no proof. Accusing
Shannon directly of murder could backfire, leaving Bella vulnerable to a slander lawsuit
For this reason, Bella chose to keep her speech vague.
Bella’s words were sure to hit a nerve with Shannon and spark a
media firestorm. With a well-placed strike, Bella got even with
Shannon and Bethany and threw a wrench in their plans.
Shannon hated Bella’s guts, but more so herself, for getting caught
Bella's wordplay.
“That's a big accusation to make, Bella!”
Bethany freaked out, knowing the image she worked so hard to build
was gone. She lashed out, “I know you don’t see eye-to-eye with me
and my mother, but that doesn’t give you the right to make false
claims about us. That's slander. | can sue you.”
Her voice trailed off.

Justin's steely gaze sent chills down Bethany’s spine. She felt like an
invisible knife was held against her throat.
“I'm only giving you facts. | have insights because | lived with you at your family hfor three years.” Bella
grimaced sternly.
The crowd was shocked.
What was that supposed to mean?
It made no sense that the heiress of the Thompsons lived in the
Salvadors’ residence for three years.
The press, Shannon, Bethany, Justin, and the Thompson brothers
behind Bella were stunned.
“Bella, you-"
Bella’s statement stopped Justin from saying anything further. “I
know better than anyone the shitty things you did throughout the
years because I'm Justin's ex-wife. | was once a member of the
Salvador family.”
