The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 2000



Asher's pupils contracted violently, and his eyes were painfully red.

He had thought those agonizing memories were buried deep in his heart over time. Ever since he and Arnold were officially together, he had not touched the cherished relics of his ex lover.

However, when Bella angrily accused him and demanded that he burn the photograph to prove his loyalty to Arnold, the pain in his heart was excruciating, as if he were being torn apart. It felt like burning his flesh and soul, not just a photograph.

Bella stared at her brother, whose sorrowful expression revealed everything he could not bear to do it.

Asher still harbored feelings for his old love. Even though that person had been dead for years, he still held a significant place in Asher's heart, so much so that it caused this normally composed man to be anguished and flustered.

"Bella, since I have been with Arnold, I have not touched these things. I have let go of him." Asher's eyes were red, almost pleading. "Please don't do this. He was my savior, after all..."

"But you loved him. Calling him your savior is just a pretext to keep him in your heart." Bella shook her head in disbelief. "If Justin were with me because I looked like his old love, even if he fell in love with me later, I wouldn't be able to accept it. I can endure his indifference when he doesn't love me, but I can't accept that our love has always been shadowed by someone else. It's not pure. It is unfair to the one being used as a substitute. I absolutely cannot accept such a deceptive love.

"You feel such a heart-wrenching pain at the thought of burning a photo. But Ash, have you ever thought about how much it would hurt Arnold if he knew you were in such pain over an old love? He is alive in front of you, yet he can't replace someone who has been dead for so many years. How could someone as proud as him endure such a blow?"
