The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge (Anna and Justin) novel Chapter 2119

Christopher locked gazes with Bella yearningly, a teardrop threatening to fall from his eyes.

“For the innocent and kind boy I had once known as Chris, I will always offer him my best wishes even if he doesn’t say anything.” Bella kept a stoic face. “But now, I can’t grant your wish. Even if I do wish you a happy birthday, it doesn’t come from my heart.”

Christopher chuckled, not at all angry at her remarks.

“Do you still remember the birthday gift you got me back then? I didn’t take anything with me when my dad drove me out of Savrow. I only took your gift with me to Sentania. Do you still remember what you got me, Bella?”

Bella clenched her fists without a word.

Of course, she still remembered.

“Soapbox car racing was all the craze at school. The kids at school owned one soapbox car, but I didn’t. I was constantly picked on and left out because of it.” Christopher murmured softly, his eyes sparkling with the joy of yesteryear. “You got me the soapbox car I always wanted for my birthday that year. It was red in color. Do you remember?”

Bella’s heart sank.

The gifts she gave him were never superficial.

She went out of her way to protect the delicate boy’s fragile ego.

“But I know it wasn’t a coincidence. You simply took pity on me.” The affection in Christopher’s eyes was solely for her. “Even so, I was happy because the gift came from you.”

“My feelings for you have never been sympathy or pity. I simply hope that my former friend can be happy.” Bella’s voice was strained with emotions.

“I wish we could go back to the past, but we can’t.” Christopher shook his head, his expression grim.

“This little catch-up is over. Let’s get straight to the point.” Bella’s voice was icy.

“Bella, am I right to say that this is your setup?” Christopher grinned dotingly. “You came up with a plan when you ran into me at the hospital and approached me in the name of visiting. You kept an eye on my every move and paid off that nurse. You got her a clean slate and planted her close to me.

“Knowing that I’m cautious and suspicious, you took your time to make your move. You sent the nurse to deliver my meds to clear my doubts. Just yesterday, she switched my meds and colluded with Ralph to arrest me on the spot. I got to give it to the love of my life. Your little scheme is airtight, and I’m proud of you.”

“What do you mean by colluding with Ralph? Ralph is a police officer. It’s only right that he arrests suspects.” Bella curled her red lips. “Slandering the CEO of KS Group should be added to your charges. Our legal team can nail that on you. You got caught with your pants down. The drug test proves it. Don’t even try to deny it.”

“I don’t use.” Christopher firmly refuted.

“Ha. Tell that to the police and see if they believe you!” Bella expressed her disgust. “I thought you were just evil, Christopher. I can’t believe you’re a coward too. You don’t own up to the things you do.”
