Chapter 783
What Bella wanted most was for Justin to vanish from her life
altogether.
Although it wasn’t verified, the evidence that Ryan brought up carried
considerable weight as circumstantial evidence.
The situation suddenly became more complicated.
Fortunately, only members of the Salvador and Hoffman families
were present.
If these allegations were made public, Zoe’s reputation would have been completely
ruined.
After all, as Zoe’s elder brother, Ryan couldn’t be so heartless.
Since they couldn’t reach an agreement and Ryan was unwilling to budge, Logan had no
choice but to leave and investigate further at
home.
Logan stood up, leaning on his cane for support, and said, “Ryan, Zoe! Both of you, come
with me!”

clear voice echoed through the room as Bella descended the stairs with a smile. She
moved with such grace and confidence, almost as if
she owned this manor.
Her presence seemed to even overshadow Shannon, who was the actual lady of the
house.
Shannon’s expression turned sour once more.
“Well, I’m sure you must have plenty to catch up on with Mr. Salvador. We won’t disturb
you any longer, Ms. Thompson,” Logan said, clearly displeased. Bella’s unexpected
appearance had disrupted their plans.
Bella said with a smile, “Oh, Mr. Logan, don’t get the wrong idea. I have nothing to talk
about with Mr. Salvador. He was just throwing a fit. After all, he has never talked to me
during our 3 years of marriage. Despite being married to him for 3 years, I never quite
understood
what was going on in his mind.”
Hearing Bella openly admit her past identity as Justin’s ex-wife,
Logan was stunned and speechless.
Having just entered the room, Justin overheard her words, and his
face darkened with frustration. ‘Damn it, why does it seem like I can
never do anything right in her eyes?’
“Mrs. Salvador, shall we have a chat?” Bella’s tone was cold as she
looked at Shannon.
“Sorry, Ms. Thompson, it’s late and I need to rest. I don’t have time to
chat with you. Let’s discuss this another day.” Shannon was hesitant,
as she was aware of Bella’s intentions.
“You may not have time, but I do. I have plenty of free time.” Bella raised her eyebrows,
smiling confidently as she approached everyone. “The night is young, and we can discuss
our matters
slowly. I’ll keep you company until dawn.”
Shannon’s expression darkened, her attitude becoming firm. “I’m old and can’t keep up
with you. Please leave!”
Justin and Ryan both changed their expressions, their fists clenc When it came to Bella

seeing her bullied was absolutely unacceptable.
“I wanted to talk with you privately. After all, family matters should stay within the family.
But since you’re being unreasonable, don’t blame me if I speak my mind.” Bella’s smile
faded, replaced with a chilling glare in her eyes. “At the last birthday banquet, when Aunt
Celeste was attacked by the assailant and Mr. Salvador was seriously injured, you must
have had something to do with it, right?”
Everyone was stunned, their gaze involuntarily turning to Shannon.
The Hoffmans, who were about to leave, paused at Bella’s words,
attention piqued.
“Ms. Thompson, you were once my daughter-in-law. I know you don’t like me, but do you
have to be so cruel?” Shannon’s heart raced. Her palms were covered in sweat, but she
forced herself to stay calm.
“Alright, alright… Then let me rephrase it.” Bella smiled again, but it was sinister. “The
assailant who attempted to harm Aunt Celeste and ended up seriously injuring Mr.
Salvador is someone you know. Isn’t that right, Mrs. Salvador?”
