The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge
Chapter 326

Chapter 326

During dinner, everyone indulged in delectable dishes and savored the Lafite wine from

Wyatt’s collection, carefully curated for over a decade. The ambiance retained its harmonious tone, justas it had before.

In reality, for the two tycoons, this meal served as a nostalgic gathering, reminiscent of times over twodecades ago. The significant change lay in the addition of children, adding to the joyful scene undertheir roofs.

Lance had a specific purpose in mind this time-replaceing suitable wives for his two unmarried sons.Throughout the banquet, Charles occupied the seat directly across from Bella, while Christopher satbeside her.

The dining table was wide, so the one sitting beside Bella was closer to her as opposed to someonesitting across from her.

Charles observed with a sense of helplessness as his younger brother attended to Bella with theutmost care and attention. Dark flames flickered in his eyes, and the fork in his hand was nearlydeformed.

‘What a bad start! This little bastard took advantage of the ideal circumstances. He’s at the right placeat the right time, with the right people!’

Christopher, having learned from their previous encounter, knew Bella’s fondness for seafood,especially crabs and shrimp-a delicacy she couldn’t resist.

So, throughout the banquet, Christopher barely touched his plate. Instead, he patiently peeled theshrimp for Bella. He continuously offered the succulent morsels to her, while everyone discreetly

observed their interactions.

Bella reveled in the feast, showing no restraint in front of her family, and enthusiastically devoured herfood. Christopher’s long lashes were downcast, a smile gracing his lips. His slender, fair fingersexpertly peeled open shrimp shells and delicately placed the plump, deshelled shrimp onto Bella’splate.

For a man from a wealthy family, such actions might be considered beneath his stature. However,Christopher appeared wholly engrossed, oblivious to onlookers, and savoring every

moment.

Bella displayed no signs of embarrassment, nor did she decline his offer. Instead, she graciouslyaccepted each delectable offering, appreciating everything he did for her.

If it were just the two of them, she would undoubtedly reject him. However, with Lance present, thedynamics changed. Given this golden opportunity to expose his vulnerabilities, she couldn’t let it slipaway.

As Christopher peeled each shrimp, meticulously wiping his fingers with a tissue after each one,Charles couldn’t help but sneer. He knew his younger brother had a cleanliness obsession. He wouldn’teven wear the same piece of clothing twice. Yet, for Bella, he willingly broke his own rules. It seemedChristopher had decided to go all-in to compete with him.

“My girl is becoming more and more outrageous. You must excuse her behavior, Lance.” Wyatt wassomewhat embarrassed by Bella’s behavior.

“Oh, Wyatt, don’t say that. We’re all family here, so there’s no need to feel embarrassed. Bella’sgenuine nature is just like yours when you were young. I like it. I wish I could carry her back home right

now in a grand procession and make her my daughter-in-law! Hahaha!” Lance, after holding back allevening, finally revealed the purpose of his visit.

Wyatt merely smiled in agreement, not delving further into that particular topic.

On this side, Bella finally felt satisfied. She covered her small mouth as she let out a burp. Christopherturned his head. His deep gaze focused on her, tenderness swirling in his eyes.

“Wipe your hands,” Christopher said as he pulled out a tissue and handed it to her from under thetable.

“Um, thanks.” Bella smiled, gracefully dabbing her lips.

“Bella seems to have a hearty appetite tonight,” Charles said with a gentle smile.

“Oh, I’m sorry. The dishes at home are just too delicious. I couldn’t resist…” Bella began.

“No, no, Bella, you misunderstood me. I don’t mean it as an insult. I just think that you’re different fromthe other wealthy young ladies I’ve encountered,” Charles said warmly.

Charles leaned forward and said sincerely, “I appreciate your genuine nature. I replace you adorable andreal.”

‘Hmm, being real just because of a meal. Hasn’t he met any women who eat regular food?’ Bellathought to herself, but she politely responded, “Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Charles.”

“I noticed you haven’t had much to drink. You must be thirsty. Have some red wine,” Charlessuggested, smiling as he stood up, intending to pour wine for Bella.

Unexpectedly, at that moment, Christopher interjected with a cool tone and a mocking smile. ” Seafoodshould be paired with white wine. How can you suggest red wine? Charles, it seems you have been

living with your head in the clouds, unaware of even such common knowledge.”
