Justin said those few words calmly. His heart was numb.
However, that sentence was like a nuclear bomb that landed on Rosalindâs head. She was stunned,
and her cheeks burned, as if she had been slapped.
Gregory and Shannon were also dumbfounded. Only Bethany could not help but smile sinisterly.
After what happened tonight, Bethany finally saw Rosalindâs true colors. Rosalind used her as a
scapegoat, so Bethany did not want Rosalind to marry into her family.
The wedding was only postponed. If it was up to Bethany, she would cancel the wedding and beat
Rosalind to death.
âJustin⦠Do you not want me anymore?!â
Rosalind was shocked. She held Justinâs arm tightly as tears streamed down her face. âIs it because
Anna happens to be Wyatt Thompsonâs daughter? Is that why youâre going to abandon me? Do you
regret divorcing her?!â
âWhether she is Anna Brown or Bella Thompson has nothing to do with us.â
Justin slowly and resolutely pushed her hand away. His stunning eyes were cold. âI warned you not to
cause trouble for her again, but what did you do? You repeatedly framed and slandered her, and even
pushed her to the forefront. I donât understand why you hate her so much.â
âNo! Justin! I just wanted you to see Annaâs true colors. I didnât want you to be bewitched by her again!â
Rosalind rushed forward in panic, but Justin took a step back. She missed him and almost fell to the
floor.
âShe has been lying to you from the beginning! Youâre going to ruin our relationship of more than ten
years just because of a wicked woman with ulterior motives⦠Donât you feel sorry for me?!â
âShe lied to me, but she never harmed anyone.â
Justin thought of Bellaâs bright smile, which was once only for him, and felt regretful. His eyes were red
as he said in a cold voice, âThatâs it. You and I should take a break to calm down and think about
whether we are truly suitable for each other.â
Rosalind watched the man leave. She felt like someone was strangling her throat, and she could not
breathe.
How could this happen? How did they end up like this?!
Her dream wedding was gone just like that. Rosalind refused to accept this and swore to marry Justin
at all costs.
After more than ten years of strategizing, Rosalind would not allow that bitch, Bella, to ruin her plans.
âHmph! My grandson is a devoted person in relationships, but heâs not a fool. He can still
differentiate right from wrong! Ms. Gold, I thought you could at least keep up the act until Justin marries
you before you show your true colors. I didnât expect you to expose your devious thoughts so
soon.
Nigel became angrier as he spoke. The tip of his nose turned red. âItâs all your own doing that you two
end up like this. You have repeatedly twisted the story, sowed discord, and bullied Anna!â
âOld Master, the young madamâs name is Bella now, not Annaâ¦â Matt reminded Nigel in a low voice.
âOh, what does it matter? Itâs all the same!â Nigel did not care.
Rosalindâs fingers were intertwined. She was so angry and embarrassed that she did not know what
to do.
Bethany, who was on the side, shrugged her shoulders and wanted to laugh. She felt relieved that
Rosalind had been punished.
âLetâs go, Matt! I need a drink and some food!â
âUm⦠Old Master, youâve drank a lot today during the party. For the sake of your healthâ¦â-
âIâm happier now than when I was at the party. Just do as I say. Donât be such a nagâ¦â
Nigel muttered and left with Matt.
The air in the living room was tense.
âGreg! Greg, you must persuade Justin to change his mind! The news of their marriage is widely
known, so how can he cancel it now? It will only embarrass our family!â
Shannon was furious. She shook Gregoryâs arm frantically, acting just like Rosalind. âYou are Justinâs
father, so he will definitely listen to you! Rose has waited for him for so many years. How can he just
back out of the marriage so easily?â
Gregory usually doted on his beloved wife, but at this moment, he felt annoyed by her. His tone
became a little colder as he said, âIs this the first day you know Justin? Heâs stubborn and never goes
back on his word. He is never impulsive and always thinks through the consequences before acting on
