Chapter 238
“Mrs. Solloway, I appreciate your kindness.”
Bella smiled and said, “But I am a divorcee, my current status is a little awkward. Besides,
I have no plans to be married for a while, so I’d better not string along your son.”
“What are you talking about? What’s wrong with a divorcee? Even if you’re divorced, you
are still a thousand times better than other young ladies out there who only have a
superficial appearance!”
After hearing this, Bethany’s cheeks flushed. She gritted her teeth angrily and resented
Bella. Bella was like the bright sun in the sky. With her presence, everything else was
overshadowed.
The golf cart left, and Bella managed to escape successfully whilst leaving a huge mess
for the Salvadors to clean.
“Chairman Salvador, I think it’s better to forget about the cooperation on the Baxim
project this time. We will cooperate with you on future projects if there is a suitable one.”
Mayor Solloway and his wife left in a hurry.
If something went wrong with any of the projects he was overseeing, he would be in
serious trouble.
Just as Gregory was in a state of shock, he discovered that Justin had disappeared entirely

Bella changed out of her youthful and beautiful golf attire in the locker room and turned
back into a noble and glamorous young lady. She flipped her black hair and strutted out of
the locker room with her high heels.
As soon as she turned the corner, she ran into a towering figure that sent chills up her
spine.
Bella felt her heart flutter slightly as she calmly looked up to meet Justin’s cold gaze,
without showing any fear.
“Mr. Salvador, when did you get into the habit of squatting around women’s locker
rooms?”
“Bella, I will not give you the Baxim project.”
Justin felt a lump in his throat as he stared at her soft and alluring lips, which aroused a
secret desire in his heart. “This project belongs to the Salvador family. I won’t let you
interfere with it.”
“Well, but what can you do? Salvador Corporation’s negative reputation is the talk of the
town. Because of the Quarrys’ case, the prosecutor will definitely start investigating
Salvador Corporation. You can’t sign a contract during the investigation, right? Even if you
want to keep this project, there is nothing you can do about it.” Bella smiled
contemptuously.
“Bella, you keep saying that we have nothing to do with each other after the divorce, but
what are you doing now?”
Justin suddenly turned around and put his long arms on the wall, directly trapping Bella
under his heaving chest. “Are you only satisfied and happy if you keep fighting me? Do
you just want
to defeat me? Is this how you want to vent your grievances?”
“Oh, so that’s what you think too.”
Bella’s red lips curled up, and the cold light from her eyes made his heart flutter. “Since
you think so, why did you pretend to be a good person and defend me earlier? Don’t you
know that this sanctimonious appearance of yours is disgusting?”
‘Disgusting?’ Justin gritted his teeth. He felt the anger swelling inside him, but he could
not control it.
In addition to anger, there was also frustration.
No matter what he did, this woman’s razor-sharp words never failed to stab him in the
heart. “Bella, don’t force me to retaliate.”
Justin held her gaze and closed in on her charming and beautiful face. “Don’t think for a
second that just because we have been married for three years, I will show mercy to you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwhen it comes to business. I will treat you the same as everyone else!”
Bella blinked and did not seem flustered at all. Instead, she was a little excited. “That’s
right, Mr. Salvador. If I make a move, you should too. Otherwise, this game of chess will be
boring. Oh! By the way, let me tell you a secret.
She tiptoed up to his ear and chuckled.

Justin was filled with resentment and anger, but the moment he heard her chuckle, his
cheeks and ears flushed, making it difficult to shake off the heat.
“I submitted the evidence of Zephyr’s crime to the prosecutor. I also released the
information to the media. To be honest, you should actually thank me. This way, your
arrogant stepmother’s attempt to join the board of directors will be in vain.”
Justin’s mind was spinning. He felt like his heart had been stabbed by a dull knife.
“Business is like a battlefield, Mr. Salvador. If you don’t put your best foot forward, you will
lose miserably. To show you the same respect, the next time I take action, I assure you, it
will definitely be even more ruthless than this time.”
As soon as Bella stopped speaking, she also stopped smiling. She pushed him away and
turned to walk away victoriously, leaving behind a dumbfounded Justin.
Justin stood there as his eyes turned red.
He felt suffocated.
