The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 342

Steven was deeply aware of Ralph’s harbored prejudices against him. Ralph thought that every man who showed excessive attention to his sister had bad intentions.

“Ralph, you’re too cautious. Steve is not a stranger,” Bella said helplessly with a smile.

“He may not be a stranger, but he’s still a man,” Ralph retorted. His eyebrows furrowed slightly. He cast a cold glance at Steven and added, “You should find a female secretary tomorrow. I don’t like the idea of you having a male secretary.”

Bella waved her hand dismissively and squinted her eyes. “Come on, you’re such a suspicious cop. You see everyone as a potential criminal.”

“It won’t hurt to stay vigilant and alert,” Ralph replied.

Ralph assisted Bella into the car and closed the door. As Steven bowed to him before leaving, Ralph stopped him.

“As Bella’s secretary, you’re with her 24/7. While supporting her, remember to maintain your boundaries,” Ralph instructed.

Ralph’s gaze carried a chilling fierceness. “What doesn’t belong to you won’t ever be yours. Don’t harbor any inappropriate intentions or cross the line. Unlike my older brothers, I won’t tolerate your presence around Bella. I was born with a suspicious mind, and I’ve witnessed too much evil in this world. So, I never assume the best in people.”

In an instant, he felt his breath hitch as a rough and powerful hand firmly seized his collar. He was effortlessly pulled out of the car as if he weighed like a feather.
