Chapter 37
“Don’t wait for me.”
Bella rejected Ryan with a perfunctory smile. “I won’t eat with you.”
Ryan clicked his tongue and said, “Why are you so heartless? Can’t you just have a meal
with me as a show of gratitude for helping you teach Zeke a lesson last time at ACE?”
Bella laughed mockingly. “I remember that Justin was the one who came to my rescue.
You’re not a good friend for stealing his credit behind his back.”
“Ms. Brown, did I offend you? Why can’t you give me a chance?”
Ryan looked at her with intense affection. “Just because you’re with Asher? Will Asher dare
to openly say that you’re his girlfriend? I will!”
“Mr. Hoffman, love isn’t first come, first served, but I have integrity and morals.”
Ryan felt ashamed. His face turned pale in an instant.
“I know that I’m not from an affluent family, but I have principles. When Justin and I got
married, he was the only one I loved. Now that Asher, the CEO of KS Group, is my
boyfriend, I only have eyes for him. I like to make my own choices, so I can’t stand people
forcing my hand. Mr. Hoffman, please show some respect and stop pestering me.’
Bella’s heart ached when she said these words.

Bella took a deep breath, raised her chin slightly, regained her composure, and walked
out.
Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks.
“Justin?!” Ryan’s eyes widened.
Justin arrived too soon. Did he take a rocket here?
eyes. His
At this moment, Justin stood at the entrance of the restaurant, emanating a strong chill
from his body.
The hotel, which was fully air-conditioned, turned into an ice cellar at this moment.
Bella met Justin’s intense gaze.
His eyes were beautiful. The ends of his eyes were slightly raised and red, and his irises
were bright. Bella realized that she was still infatuated with his looks.
However, Justin had only been indifferent to her for the past three years. He had never
smiled at her, let alone shown any affection.
Bella was just too stubborn, thinking that she could change him and gain his love one day
if she put in
more effort. In the end, she was the only one who had changed.
Justin approached her. His eyes narrowed slightly.
When Justin heard that Ryan was with “Anna”, he turned down his afternoon meeting
without hesitation and drove over by himself.
He happened to hear what “Anna” said to Ryan. His heart felt as if it had been hollowed
out, and his chest was indescribably empty.
Later, a hint of anger bubbled in his chest. He was not one to lose his temper randomly,
but when facing “Anna”, his emotions were always difficult to control.
“Why are you here?” Justin stared at Bella’s face.
“I’m working.” Bella turned away and did not bother to speak to him more.
“Don’t you remember what I said? Before we finalize the divorce, we are still legally
married, so you are still a member of the Salvador family. You know very well that the
Salvador family and the Thompson family are sworn enemies, yet you still work in a hotel
owned by them? What are you thinking? Do you want to piss me off, disgust me, or slap

Ryan panicked. Just as he was about to say something, Bella spoke.
“Oh, so that’s what you think.”
Bella slowly lowered her indifferent gaze back to Justin’s handsome face. “In that case,
let’s get our divorce certificate today. I don’t want you to keep haunting me like a resentful
ghost and look at me so viciously whenever you see me.”
“Anna Brown!” Justin suddenly frowned.
“Did you bring your documents? Ask Ian to deliver it to you. I carry it with me at all times,
just in case I’ll get to use it.”
Bella walked past Justin with a mocking smile. She did not miss him one bit.
Justin’s eyes turned red in an instant.
He suddenly grabbed her slender arm with a frightening force, as if he were afraid that
she would run away from him and he would never be able to catch her again.
However, the next second, there was a loud pop.
Bella suddenly felt a sharp pain, and sweat broke out on her forehead.
Justin froze. His heart was pounding.
He actually dislocated Bella’s arm!
