The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge -
Chapter 450
Bella squinted her eyes and looked at Justin with curiosity.
“This face… Why does she look so familiar?” Someone inquired.
“Oh! I recall now, isn’t she the mistress of Headlines’ director, the man who was exposed as a cheaterduring a live broadcast?”
“It’s surprising that she is still alive. If I were her, I would have dug myself a hole a long time ago. Howcan she still face the world?”
“Well, I would rather die than live like this. But why is she here?”
Xena’s hands trembled as she took a deep breath. “Everyone, I’ve come this time to act as a witness toa crime, to repent, and to apologize for my actions. I would like to apologize to Ms. Thompson, thegeneral manager of the KS World Hotel. My name is Xena Gordon, and I work as a journalist forHeadlines. My stupidity and greed for money drove me to disregard professional ethics and morals. Ibribed. Ms. Thompson’s employees to steal Ada Wang’s wedding setup designs and sell them to othermedia outlets for publicity. As a result, Ms. Thompson breached her contract, causing the termination ofthe collaboration with Ada Wang.”
Everyone was stunned. They had not anticipated the complexity of the story surrounding Bella and AdaWang’s contract termination. The twists and turns were astonishing!
People looked sympathetically and understandingly at Bella. Being known as Alexa had bestowedunprecedented grace on Bella.
Everyone thought that Bella was as beautiful and pure as an angel. It seemed as though she would bebetter off residing in an ancient temple, shielded from the burdens and perils of the world.
“Ms. Gordon! Are you saying you were manipulated by someone ?!”
“Who bribed you?”
“What caused you to have a car accident? Could it be that the person. directing you was afraid youwould reveal their identity and thus wanted to keep you quiet?”
Reporters swarmed in, quickly encircling Xena. Conspiracies began to emerge one after the other.
Xena closed her eyes and took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes again, she raised her handand pointed straight at Bethany.
“It was Ms. Salvador who ordered me to do it!”
Bethany’s ears filled with a deafening buzz, feeling like everything had turned blank. She felt her visionblurring.
Five nights ago, in a quiet hospital room, Xena leaned against the bed, tightly clutching the sheets. Shelowered her gaze, looking subtly at the strikingly handsome man sitting in front of her with anoverwhelming sense of oppression. Her hospital gown was soaked in layers of cold sweat.
As he sat in the chair, Justin’s sharp features maintained an expressionless demeanor. Ian stood off tothe side, giving Xena a cold stare.
“Thank you for saving my life, Mr. Salvador,” Xena said cautiously, her voice trembling.
“Do you know why I saved you?” Justin asked in a chilly tone as he toyed with a silver lighter in hispalm. Xena was afraid to say anything.
“Because you still have some value to me.” Justin snapped the lighter shut with a crisp sound, his longlashes downcast. “With a single word, I can either restore you to normalcy or render you a cripple for
the rest of your life. I can even make you vanish into thin air.”
“Mr. Salvador! Please tell me your orders.” Xena was terrified, her whole body turning weak. “As longas I can help you achieve it, I will do my best! I will give you my all!”
Justin’s dark eyes narrowed as he held an unlit cigarette between his fingers.
“Identify Bethany Salvador as the culprit and restore my wife’s innocence.”
