Chapter 52
Bella’s eyelashes trembled, and her chest felt stuffy.
She looked straight into Justin’s eyes with a fiery gaze. Her clear and beautiful eyes held
such fury
that Justin wanted to avert his gaze. He was shocked to see such a powerful and intense
stare-down coming from her.
After a while, Bella laughed. She looked at him like they were strangers.
“Oh, so you’re here to vent your anger on behalf of your beloved fiancee, huh? I bet
you’ve been holding it in for quite some time now. Are you going to explode if you don’t
confront me today?”
Bella thought to herself, ‘Justin, you’re really something. After three years of marriage, I
didn’t ask you for anything. Even if you don’t appreciate all the good things I did, you
shouldn’t repeatedly use such insulting language to belittle me! What’s more, I no longer
belong to you. Actually, you’ve never let me belong to you. I’m like a stray cat that has
been standing outside your door, waiting for you to take me home. I looked forward to that
day with all my heart, but in the end, you abandoned me and resented me. Why should I
let you trample all over me?!’

get through this disaster, right? Zeke Gold harmed the interests of KS Group, bribed my
employees, falsified evidence, and framed others. The evidence is conclusive, so you can’t
save him even if you want to.”
Bella’s eyes suddenly became sharp. The smile on her red lips was so charming that Justin
was momentarily dazed. “You’re angry that you can’t change the situation, so you can
only find fault with me by mocking me with my private life. You just want to humiliate me
to vent your anger. But I don’t want to play by your rules. I’ll fight for what I want, and I
won’t ever look back. I don’t care what other people think of me. That includes you, Justin.
If I want the Gold family to go bankrupt and want the Gold siblings to pay for what they
have done, I’ll do whatever I want. No one can stop me!”
Justin’s muscles tightened under his suit. His strong arms were tense, and the veins on the
back of his hands were bulging.
He thought, ‘Just look at her! Now that she has a backer, she’s so confident and sharp-
tongued!’
Justin knew what she said was wrong, but he could not tell her how he felt.
He was not angry because she used the Thompson brothers to punish the Gold family.
He was mad that she smiled so sweetly at Axel.
“You’re shameless!”
Justin’s breathing became heavier as he spat out those words.
“Am I shameless? I’m just glad you didn’t describe me as an abandoned woman.”
Bella tried her best to smile frivolously to spite him. “But even if I am shameless, what
does it have to do with you? Who do you think you are? I can do whatever I want. You have
no right to tell me what to
do.”
She did not want to continue the conversation, so she turned around and left in a huff.
Unexpectedly, Justin grabbed her arm, which happened to be her left arm that had only
recovered a few days ago. He used a frightening amount of force as well.
“Ouch! Let me go!” Bella was in pain, but she did not dare to struggle for fear of another
dislocation.
“Anna, you know exactly who I am.” Justin’s throat was hoarse, and his eyes were intense.
It was like they were at a betting table. His desire to win forced him to rack his brains to

cards.
Bella laughed in exasperation. “I do know who you are. You’re just my good-for-nothing ex-
husband!”
“Anna!” Justin’s eyes instantly turned red.
“Justin Salvador! Let her go!”
Suddenly, a tall man stood in front of Bella to shield her as he shoved Justin away fiercely.
“Steve, I’m fine. Mr. Salvador just wanted to chat with me.” Bella comforted Steven
without any fear.
“If it was just a chat, why would he touch you? He even yanked your injured arm! You were
just complaining about how uncomfortable it was before going to bed last night. It’s all his
fault!” Steven glared at Justin warily.
Justin’s heart trembled. He curled the fingers that touched her.
Bella looked at Steven, who was still fuming, and felt that he should not have said so
much in front of
Justin, lest Justin think that she was just acting pitiful.
“Are you Asher’s secretary?” Justin recognized Steven at a glance. His face was dark.
