The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

The swan's white wings fluttered, creating ripples across the mirror-like lake surface.

Mrs. Iverson's emaciated face froze. Her eyes were red and swollen, staring intensely at Bella's firm expression.

"You... You're already married? You have a husband? When did this happen? How is this possible?!"

"Mrs. Iverson, I have no reason to lie to you. It's true."

Bella's voice was gentle, but her stance was unyielding. "My husband and I have known each other for over a decade. I've loved him since I was a child. I've always dreamed of becoming his wife. We've gone through many hardships together, and now we're finally together. I've achieved my heart's desire. So, I will never love another man for the rest of my life. I'm sorry to disappoint you."

"This can't be... It's impossible!" Mrs. Iverson's emotions were on the verge of breakdown as she gripped Bella's fair and delicate hand tightly. "You grew up with my Chris. You've always been so good to him, and he's completely devoted to you. He's vowed to marry no one but you! Chris has told me so much about what happened between you two. He never once mentioned... that you were already married!"

The more Bella listened, the colder she felt inside. Her heart pounded like a drum.
