The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge (Anna and Justin) novel Chapter 1348

Bella was speechless. Even in a moment like this, Arnold still had the mood to wink at her.

All of a sudden, it hit her. Why was Justin so silent? Did he know that Asher would show up?

Bella gazed at Justin, her beautiful eyes slightly widening. “Justin, did you ask Ash to...?”

Justin’s deep gaze flickered, and he leaned in towards her, whispering, “I’m really sorry, Bella. I didn’t intend to hide this from you. I simply told Ian to inform Asher before we arrived here. I didn’t expect him to come along. It just shows that he’s worried about Steven, but even more worried about you. But… What’s the deal with Dr. Larson accompanying him? Do they have some kind of connection? Why are they always showing up together?”

Bella looked puzzled, pursing her lips and raising her fingers. Amidst Justin’s confusion, Bella admitted, “I called Dr. Larson here.”

Justin couldn’t believe it. It seemed that she had also been hiding it from him. Together, they had come up with a hundred plans. Luckily, they were both aiming for the same goal.

“Just because of a secretary, is it really necessary for the Thompson family to make such a big deal?” James mocked Asher with contempt. “But it doesn’t matter now. Steven has already admitted to everything. Didn’t Chairman Thompson mention in an interview before that when you make a mistake, you must own it, and when things go south, stand tall? Well, those words are coming back to haunt you!”

As the heads of the four main families, James and Asher always found themselves at odds in the business world.

Without fail, James ended up on the losing end whenever KS Group set its sights on a project. Despite his preparations, he could not compete with Asher.

It was frustrating that their family connection held him back before, forcing James to feign harmony with Asher. Now that the pretense was gone, James could finally vent his anger.
