Chapter 792
Gregory’s gaze fell upon Shannon. It was devoid of any warmth or
emotion.
Bella suddenly changed the subject. “Madam Shannon, did you
secretly instruct Mr. Harry to take advantage of the birthday party and attack Aunt
Celeste, which led to the previous incident?”
“It wasn’t me! Harry acted on his own. I had nothing to do with it!”
Shannon desperately clung onto Gregory’s suit, tears blurring her
vision as she defended herself.
“Greg, I have no reason to harm Celeste,” Shannon insisted. “I am the
matriarch of the Salvador family. What move would I have against
someone like her, who is merely Wyatt’s mistress?!”

“Shannon! That’s enough.” Gregory’s tone was stern as he interrupted.

family.”
Bella’s eyes flashed with anger as she confronted Shannon.
She raised her finger and pointed directly at Shannon’s tearful yet sinister face. “If you
dare to insult Aunt Celeste again, I’ll slap you
too!”
A tense silence fell over the room as everyone exchanged uneasy glances.
Logan, who was observing from the sidelines, shook his head

disapprovingly. “Ms. Thompson’s behavior hardly resembles that of a young lady. She’s too
unruly and willful.”
Ryan shrugged nonchalantly. “It’s because she’s been spoiled by everyone. Her father,
siblings, and even Justin spoil her! It’s no
surprise she behaves so recklessly. You should know that Justin has
never spoiled a woman in his life. Ms. Thompson is the only
exception. No other woman enters his eyes.”
Zoe intuitively caught the underlying message in the words, feeling a
slap to her pride.
Justin’s gaze shifted to Bella. He found her fierce and aggressive
appearance irresistible, causing his heart to race uncontrollably.
Shannon froze in fear, fully aware of Bella’s reputation for following through on her
threats.
“Bella… All of this is merely your speculation! You’re slandering me without any
evidence!” Shannon protested, convinced that Bella had
no concrete evidence to support her accusations.
Bella smirked, leaving Shannon speechless and embarrassed.
“Could your defensiveness be a sign of guilt?” Bella’s smirk lingere as she reclaimed the
necklace, her tone teasing.

again. We’ll have answers soon enough. Try to be patient.”
Shannon’s nerves coiled at the thought of Harry being in the hands of the cops.
“Well, I’ll leave you to your business” Bella said, heading for the door

with everyone watching her.
Justin clenched his fists, his intense gaze following her every move. Despite the urge to
follow, he suppressed the restless feeling in his
heart, resisting the impulse.
Just as Bella was about to leave, Claire stopped her.
“Ms. Thompson, next time you should handle your family matters at
the right time and place. At least give Chairman Salvador and Mr.
Salvador a heads-up, so nobody feels awkward.”
“Awkward? I didn’t feel that.” Bella shrugged, smiling casually. “Next
time, toughen up a little, then you won’t feel awkward so easily.”
