The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge (Anna and Justin) novel Chapter 353

Chapter 353 

Ada felt a surge of surprise and excitement, almost at a loss for words! She had pleaded with everyone she knew to help her get a piece of jewelry designed by Alexa, but so far, nothing has 

worked out. 

In a surprising turn of events, Bella presented her with Alexa’s brooch as a gift. Thus, Ada was thrilled. 

“No, no, no… Ms. Thompson, I appreciate your kindness, but this gift is too precious. I really can’t accept it,” Ada expressed. Despite genuinely liking it, she hesitated out of pride and politely declined. 

“The brooch once consoled my wounded soul, but now I have completely emerged from the shadows, and in the future, I will never tread the same path again.” 

Bella smiled lightly, her gaze incredibly resolute. “So, this gift is more of a beautiful wish. It once helped me overcome my sadness, and I hope this little thing will bring you the best of luck in the future.” 

Justin’s pupils contracted. He felt a piercing pain, as if his chest had been struck. His heart ached and went numb. 

The fleeting hidden joy from moments ago was ruthlessly extinguished by Bella with a bucket of icy water, chilling to the core. 

“Oh! Well then… Ms. Thompson, I’ll accept your generous gift. Thank you so much! I really appreciate it.” Ada exclaimed, cradling the brooch that Bella had once again bestowed with sacred value. Her grin was so wide that she could not close her mouth. 

Goodness, was this still the aloof international superstar? What a drastic transformation! 

“Why?!” Bethany could not contain her anger as she turned to Shannon and said, “Mom, our family has spent a fortune to set up this stage. Why should we let this wretched woman show off here? It’s just a worthless brooch. We can afford to give her the same! You should think of a solution to get that bitch out of here!” 

“A solution? Why should I bother coming up with a solution?” 

Shannon’s eyes darkened as her lips curled into a sinister smile. “Bella is a jinx. Just now, that bastard used Ada to mock me. Now, he’s getting what he deserves.” 

Though Bethany felt annoyed, she could not help but be suspicious. 

Before the divorce, Bella used to be terrified of Justin, like a startled bird. A slight furrow in his brows would make her feel troubled for days. Now, after the divorce, it seemed like she had completely turned the tables, toying with Justin at her fingertips. 

If Bella had displayed this skill earlier, Rosalind might not even be in the picture. 

“Ms. Bella Thompson!” 

Zoe finally became indignant, thinking herself righteous as she stepped in front of Bella. With a fake smile, she said, “Of all the times you could present Ms. Wang with your gift, why choose tonight at the Salvadors’ welcoming banquet? Are you trying to steal the limelight?” 

When Justin saw Zoe unnecessarily defending him, his eyes darkened. 

“If presenting a gift is stealing the limelight from Mr. Salvador, I think that you might be underestimating Mr. Salvador’s charm, Ms. Hoffman.” 

Bella narrowed her beautiful eyes. “The Salvadors are the hosts of this welcoming banquet. Mr. Salvador is right here to witness everything, and he hasn’t objected to anything. Ms. Hoffman, don’t you think that you are overstepping your boundaries as a guest?” 

Zoe was so enraged that her eyes seemed ready to spew fire, but with so many people watching, she could not afford to lose her composure. 

Bella let out a faint sigh and said apologetically to Ada, “Ms. Wang, it seems I’m not very welcome here, and I understand completely. After all, Salvador Corporation and KS Group have always been business rivals. My appearance is indeed abrupt. Since I’ve delivered my gift, I won’t intrude any longer. I’ll take my leave now.” 

With that, she turned to leave.
