Chapter 688
“Just hitting you isn’t enough. I’m going to sue you and take legal action against you. I’ll make you pay
for your despicable actions.”
Bella showed no hint of fear. Her voice was icy and cold. “You are spreading false rumors and causing
trouble unnecessarily. Without knowing the truth, you fabricated stories and defamed my family. You
even slandered Aunt Celeste’s reputation. Don’t think that just because you’re a journalist, you can say
whatever you want. Just because the people you’ve harmed before chose not to make a fuss, do you
believe you’re untouchable? Tonight, I will thoroughly change your mindset. I’ll let everyone with
malicious intentions know what the consequences should be.”
Everyone was awed by Bella’s imposing attitude. Clearly, she was the one in the wrong for striking him.
But she was so beautiful and valiant, it made it hard for others to hate her even if she comm
crime.
“Fabricated stories?” The enraged journalist burst into mocking laughter. “Only the younger journalists
don’t know what happened the TS Gem Channel anniversary celebration. The rest know exactly what
happened. Even if the internet wasn’t as advanced at that time,

“Is that so? You may have your memories, but do you have evidence?” Bella’s tone remained calm,
and her gaze was cold and intimidating.

“What’s the matter? You were quite articulate when asking questions just now. What happened? Cat
got your tongue?” Bella glanced at his press pass. “Alright, adults should be responsible for their words
and actions. The legal department of KS Group will be contacting you.”
The man was visibly shaking in fright.
After saying that, she turned and escorted her family toward the car.
“Bella, you really don’t need to do this for me.” Celeste held onto the
edge of Bella’s clothes. Her eyes were red, and her face was pale.
“What are you talking about, Aunt Celeste?” Bella gazed at her
reassuringly. “If a dog comes to bite you, as your family, I must help
you fend it off. It’s too inconvenient for Aunt Mila and Aunt Sasha to get involved. I’m young and
unafraid of stirring up trouble. I have no
reservations.”
At that moment, a series of exclamations erupted from the crowd!
A man wearing a black mask and a baseball cap suddenly ch
out of the crowd, shouting,
“Celeste! You shameless woman! How dare you show your face?!
to hell!”
In the midst of chaos, the man wielded an iron rod, swinging it
directly at Celeste’s head.
“Watch out!” Amelia’s heart stopped in fear as she shouted.
Although the bodyguards were well-trained, this man was no pushover. With swift and precise
movements, he caught them off
guard.

menacing man closed in, she turned and tightly hugged Celeste, shielding her from the attack.
“Bella!” Both Mila and Sasha exclaimed in shock.
Bella’s heart pounded wildly as she closed her eyes, ready to endure
the impending blow.
Bang-!
“Ugh!”
The sensation of pain did not follow.
Instead, what followed was the familiar sound of a man’s labored
breathing. The sound was like an explosion in Bella’s ears.
She was shocked.
“Justin!”
Justin had taken the blow for her.
Bella slowly turned to face him, tears pouring out of her reddened
eyes.
