Under the influence of alcohol, Justin vented all his resentment.
Justin was an extremely self-disciplined and restrained man. When he was shot on the battlefield, he
did not even wince. However, he could not bear it anymore.
âMr. Salvador, youâre angry not because you were beaten or because I almost died from a gunshot.
Youâre only angry because you think I lied to you?â Bellaâs heart throbbed in pain as an overwhelming
feeling of disappointment engulfed her.
Justin was startled. He pursed his thin lips in silence.
âJustin, we are already divorced, so why do you care about this? Itâs meaningless.â
Bella sneered. âYouâre mad that what originally belonged to you has become someone elseâs. You hate
the feeling of losing control over me. Thatâs all. Mr. Salvador, for the sake of your health, letâs just cut to
the chase and talk about compensation.â
âIf you want to settle it in private, thatâs fine too.â
Justin closed his eyes. When he opened them again, they were bloodshot. âTell me who that man is
and your relationship with him. Then we can settle this privately.â
âNo,â Bella said without thinking.
âThen leave Asher and cut off all contact with the Thompson family. If you do that, Iâll agree to a private
settlement.â
âHah! Dream on!â
Bella thought, âThis man is so shameless to push his luck!â
Bellaâs cherry lips parted. They looked so beautiful that Justin was a little dazed.
Justin narrowed his eyes slightly, wondering if he was attracted to her because he had not sobered yet.
At that moment, he just found her so sexy.
up
Coming from a wealthy family, Justin had seen his fair share of beautiful women. He was confident that
he could resist all temptations.
However, he found it difficult at this moment.
âSince youâre not serious about negotiating compensation, I will get my secretary to resolve this issue
with you. I wonât disturb your rest. Goodbye.â
Suddenly, Bella felt a tug on her arm. Justin found strength from nowhere and pulled her into his
arms.
Bella slammed into Justinâs solid and heaving chest.
âJustin! Youâ¦â
The next second, Justin kissed her lips.
âJustin⦠Let goâ¦â
Bella was so anxious that her forehead was sweaty. She punched his broad shoulders with her little
fists.
After three years of marriage, Justin had never taken the initiative to hold her hand, let alone kiss her.
Now, Justin was kissing her as if he were out of control.
At this thought, a wave of anger rose in Bellaâs chest. Her eyes were red, and she bit Justinâs lips.
âOw!â Justin felt the pain and let go of her.
âAsshole! Scumbag!â
Bella was furious and ashamed. She raised her hand and slapped Justin in the face.
Her handprint was clear on Justinâs handsome face.
Justinâs eyes were burning with anger, but when he saw the tears in her eyes and her swollen lips, his
heart clenched, and his mind went blank for a while.
âJustin! What do you take me as? You trampled on my self-esteem when we were married, but now
youâre harassing me after we got divorced! What on earth do you want before youâre willing to let me
go?!â
Bella was shaking with anger. She wiped off the smeared lipstick on her lips with the back of her hand.
Her voice was trembling as she said, âYou can give up on the thought of keeping me as your mistress
and doing whatever you please with me! The next time this happens, I will crush you!â
After saying that, she glared at him with hatred, turned around, and left angrily.
Justin clenched his teeth as he endured the pain in his chest from that hateful glance.
He thought, âWhat the hell was I thinking? I kissed her. I must be crazy!â
As soon as Bella left, Ryan came into the ward.
âJustin, did you quarrel with Anna just now? You two were so loud that I could hear you outside.â
When Ryan saw Justinâs bruised lips, he immediately shrieked. âAh! You⦠Whatâs wrong with your lip?
Did you⦠Did you⦠Fuck! Youâre such a scumbag! You have a fiancée!â
