âIf not? Should I wait for a rabid dog like you to bite me before I hit you?â Bella glared at Bethany and
dusted off her hands.
âRabid dog?! How dare you call me a rabid dog?!â Bethany was livid.
Just then, the door to the boutique opened.
Bella raised her long eyelashes and suddenly met a piercing gaze.
The next second, Justinâs tall build appeared in the store under everyoneâs shocked gaze.
Bella and Justin were both startled to see each other at the boutique.
Bella immediately averted her gaze, as if he were a mere stranger.
Justin pursed his thin lips. His eyes were dark, and he felt very anxious.
âJustin!â
When Bethany saw Justin, she thought that he was her savior, so she got up and ran to him with tears
in her eyes. She quickly complained before Bella could say a word. âAnna is crazy! She actually hit me!
Justin, you have to stand up for me!â
âI hit her. Her cheek should still be warm from the slap.â Bella admitted it with a contemptuous smile.
âWhat are you doing here?â Justin looked at her with cold eyes.
âWhat do you think?â
Back then, Anna would look at Justin with sparkling eyes that were filled with hope.
At this moment, Justin could no longer find the light of desire in her eyes. She was like an emotionless
doll.
Justinâs chest tightened as complicated emotions filled his heart.
âJustin! Anna actually asked me to hold a press conference to apologize to her hotel employee. I didnât
agree to it, so she threatened me and even hit me!â
Seeing that Justin was indifferent to her being slapped, Bethany cried with all her strength. âJustin!
These people witnessed it! Anna bullied me!â
âAnna, is it not enough that the video online caused a negative backlash for Salvador Corporation?
Now, you want us to hold a press conference?â
Justin frowned, and his voice was deep and cold. âDonât you think youâre going overboard?â
Steven could not bear it anymore. He was about to step forward to argue with Justin, but Bella grabbed
him and pulled him behind her.
This move infuriated Justin. Since their divorce, his ex-wife has been giving him the cold shoulder, so
Justin felt like he finally had an opportunity to vent his anger.
âI donât feel like Iâm going overboard. I feel like Iâm seeking justice.â Bellaâs eyes were as dark as the
muzzle of a gun.
âHa! I donât care whether youâre seeking justice or working for Asher. I wonât let you get your way.â
âThen thereâs nothing to talk about. Iâm leaving.â
Bella raised her eyebrows proudly, put one hand in the pocket of her trousers, and left without
hesitation.
âWait, wait!â
Thinking that the photos were still with Anna, Bethany was so anxious that she started sweating.â
Justin, Anna photoshopped indecent photos of me in an attempt to smear my reputation! That way, she
can force me to apologize. You canât just let her leave!â
Justinâs eyes turned cold, and he strode over to block her path.
âGive me your phone.â
âWhy should I? Who do you think you are?â Bella sneered, feeling annoyed.
Justin quickly grabbed the phone from her hand.
Bethany saw this and secretly rejoiced.
Sure enough, Shannon was right. Justin would help them clean up their mess, no matter what. He was
indeed a useful tool.
âJustin! Give it back to me!â
Bella was so anxious that her breathing was unsteady. She stretched out her slender hand and clawed
at Justin like a little monkey.
However, she accidentally tripped on her sky-high heels and fell firmly into the manâs warm and
hard chest.
When Bella fell, Justin subconsciously wrapped his arms around her thin waist.
Bella was ashamed and furious. Her cheeks were as red as ripe cherries.
Through the smooth and delicate fabric of Justinâs shirt, Bella could feel the shape of his pectorals.
They were so damn perfect.
Justin narrowed his dark eyes and focused on Bellaâs phone.
He held Bellaâs waist with one hand and her phone with the other.
He remembered that her lock screen password was â0923â, but he did not know if she had changed it
since then.
Justin quickly pressed four numbers with his thumb and unlocked the phone.
