Bellaâs voice was soft, but it was like a thunderclap that rang in everyoneâs ears.
Nigel and Gregory gaped their mouths open, completely stunned.
Rosalind suddenly felt like her body was frozen. Her face was ashen. Shannon and Bethany were not
much better either.
Who would have thought that Justinâs pushover ex-wife whom everyone thought came from the
countryside was actually the daughter of the richest man in Hatchbay and heiress of KS Group?
âMom⦠Is this true? This bitchâ¦â
Bethany timidly pulled Shannon, but Shannon shook her off irritably. âShut up!â
Justinâs body was frozen in place. Thousands of emotions surged in his heart, and the overwhelming
confusion and shock were too much to bear.
How was it possible that his wife of three years, who had taken great care of my grandfather as a
caregiver, was actually Wyatt Thompsonâs daughter?
Justin took a deep breath, walked up to Bella, opened his red eyes, and stared intently at her familiar
yet estranged face.
Bella pursed her lips and turned to look away. She felt guilty and annoyed, so she did not want to meet
his overly piercing eyes.
âIs it really you?â Justinâs voice was hoarse.
âYeah,â Bella replied coolly. Her eyes were blank.
âSo, you were the one who went against the Gold family before, and you made me climb ten floorsâ¦â
âMr. Salvador, thereâs no need to get into the details. Itâs all me. I am Bella Thompson, the general
manager of KS World Hotel and Wyatt Thompsonâs daughter who has never shown her face in public.â
Bella interrupted him with a cold voice, âBut donât get me wrong. As the top management of the hotel, I
did everything based on the interests of the hotel, and I had no intention of targeting you. As for why I
found a substitute to meet you at that time, I guess youâve already figured out why. I concealed my
identity so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. We can part ways amicably, so I didnât want to see you
in person.â
Bella paused and lowered her eyelashes sadly. âI did lie to you about this, and Iâm sorry for that.â
She had lied to him again. This time, her deception was more outrageous than all the previous ones
put together.
However, Justin was not as angry as he imagined he would be.
Instead of hating her for lying to him, Justin actually wanted to know why.
Why did this billionaire heiress willingly change her identity and work as a lowly caregiver for
his grandfather? Why was she willing to marry him despite the grievances she suffered when she knew
that he did not love her?
âSo⦠You, Asher, and Axelâ¦â
âThey are all my brothers from the same mother.â
After Bella explained herself, she ignored him and walked toward Wyatt.
Justin took a cold breath. His heart shrank, and his chest felt crushed.
At this time, Steven hurried over after hearing the news. When he saw Wyatt and Bella together, he
was shocked for a moment before he figured out what happened.
âChairman Thompson, Ms. Bella.â
âSteve, hold Asher. Heâs drunk. Iâm afraid Bella canât support him.â
Although Wyatt was so angry that his chest was about to explode, he did not want to lose his temper in
front of the Salvadors, so he suppressed his anger for later. He would deal with his rebellious daughter
after they left.
Steven rushed forward and put his arms around Asherâs waist to support him. Justin wanted to help,
but Bella coldly refused.
âMr. Salvador, you donât have to worry. We can manage it ourselves.â
Justin pursed his lips. His arms paused in midair awkwardly.
Bella ordered in a serious tone, âSteve, please contact the director of Thompson Hospital and tell him
that Asher may need a gastric lavage.â
âGastric lavage?! Isnât he just drunk?â
âAsher is not drunk.â
Bella raised her eyes and swept her sharp gaze across the Salvadors. âItâs clear from his reaction that
he was drugged!â
Everyone was shocked.
The three scheming women panicked, especially Bethany.
Her legs under her heavy dress were already trembling.
Wyattâs handsome face turned to frost.
From the beginning, he felt that something was wrong with Asher. His son had a high
tolerance for alcohol, so there was no way he would get drunk and lose his composure at Old Master
Nigelâs birthday party. Sure enough, there was something fishy in this.
Steven helped Asher to the car first.
