Chapter 3

The Rolls-Royce drove to Yara Park, which was the Thompson family’s residence in Hatchbay.

The car stopped in the middle of the red carpet that was laid out at the front entrance. In the center stood Axel Thompson, Bella’s second brother. He opened the car door for Bella and greeted her.

“Welcome home, Princess!”

Bella looked stunning under the bright lights in the mansion. She had taken off her sneakers and changed into stilettos earlier in the car. When she got out of the car, she looked like a proud queen.

“Ax, how have you been?”

“I’m fine, but I’m feeling much better now that you’re back! Are the fireworks nice? My birthday gift for you has gone viral online!” Axel’s handsome face was filled with excitement.

“Yeah, I saw it. People are saying that you’re a filthy rich bastard trying to win over someone’s heart. That’s quite an achievement, huh?” Bella clapped her hands and smiled brightly at Axel.

Axel ignored her mockery and hugged her tightly.

“Bella, you won’t leave again, right?”

“Where else will I go now that I’m divorced?”

Bella patted her second brother’s back and sighed in relief. “Well, I’ve let everyone down. I thought I could win him over if I put all my effort into this marriage. But in the end, I failed miserably.”

Only God knew how devastated she was at the moment. She wanted to cry, but she held back.

Bella swore that she would never shed another tear for Justin after she left Tideview Manor because

he was not worth it.

“That asshole! How dare he cheat on my sister?! I’ll start a thorough investigation on Salvador Corporation tomorrow and get your fourth brother to assassinate Justin when he’s free!”

When Asher heard this, he lowered his eyelids and said, “Amen.”

“Ax, don’t create trouble! You’re a public prosecutor!” Bella laughed bitterly. “Can you be a little more ‘peace and love’ like Ash?”

“What the fuck! Your eldest brother only became a saint after he stopped being a mobster!” Axel tugged on his tie angrily. “Anyway, I won’t let this go! I won’t stand by and watch Justin bully my sister. The Salvadors are on my radar now.”

Bella held Asher and Axel’s hands as she walked into the home she had not returned to in a long time.

When Wyatt Thompson, the chairman of KS Group, heard that his daughter was back, he could not hide his joy and paced around the study excitedly.

“Wyatt, I’m back!”
