Chapter 278 Retaliation By The Divorced Heiress
- Under Justin's sullen visage, a tempest of feelings was building. In contrast, Bella's thoughts were not as convoluted. She cursed her misfortune in her head. "It feels like stepping on dog shit to meet this scumbag in such a romantic and beautiful place," Bella thought to herself. Rosalind was just an unsightly sight, clinging to Justin in the process. Even simply looking at the woman damaged Bella's eyes. Christopher's towering stature leaned over to her at that precise moment. "Don't panic, I'm here," he whispered as his lips lightly touched her ear. Bella's ear quivered, and she uttered a confused curse. What's the big deal about, she wondered? Simply handle it when the time comes.
- Let's punish them like dogs if they act like dogs. Rosalind softly remarked, "Ms. Thompson, I didn't expect to meet you here," putting aside her earlier combative demeanor. "Is this gentleman your new boyfriend?" she said. Together, you two seem very lovely. Bella didn't seem interested in conversing with the cunning woman, as her eyes stayed neutral. Bella did not respond, but Christopher grinned and said, "Thank you for your compliments. But right now, I'm not Bella's boyfriend.” Justin's visage froze, and his fist clinched as soon as he heard Bella's comment, even though Bella looked unaware of it. Not right now, he thought to himself. Is it going to happen soon or later? Has she moved on that quickly, or is this guy trying to get my attention by making it seem like they're dating?
- Rosalind felt the tension in Justin's body as she put her hands around his arm. Despite everything, she understood he still hadn't let go of Bella. Rosalind was relieved that Bella seemed to have found a new love interest. She took comfort in the knowledge that "at least one of them has fully moved on from their three-year marriage." Rosalind couldn't help but ponder Bella's apparently idyllic love life. Which household does this young master belong to? She wondered to herself. In addition to being attractive, he has a pleasant attitude. "Is Mr. Salvador here to accompany his fiancée to enjoy the flowers?" Christopher inquired, breaking the ice.
