Chapter 7

In the ward, the sickly Nigel immediately looked energetic again the moment he saw Bella. His eyes lit

“Anna! Come to Grandpa!”

Bella switched her persona in a split second and sat obediently next to Nigel.

“Grandpa, how are you feeling? Do you have any discomfort?”

“I feel much better now that I can see you!”

Nigel held her hand and asked anxiously, “Anna, this punk told me that you two are divorced. Is it true?”

“Yes, Grandpa. We are divorced.” Bella’s long eyelashes trembled, and her heart felt empty.

“Justin, you imbecile! Why would you divorce such a good wife?! Anna is the best there is!” Nigel struggled to sit up, and he glared at Justin.

Justin was worried about his grandfather’s health and dared not retort.

“Grandpa, please don’t get mad. I didn’t want to continue this marriage, and Justin went along with it.” Bella comforted Nigel in a soft voice and gently patted the old man’s back.

Justin was shocked that Bella did not complain to his grandfather or use his grandfather to get her

revenge on him.

He thought, ‘Was she trying to use an unconventional way to capture my heart and save our marriage? Did she think that I would be attracted to her?’ 1

“Anna, did they bully you at home? Did Shannon treat you badly?” Nigel asked in distress.

“No, Grandpa. Justin and I just have different views. We don’t love each other, so it’s in both our interests to go our separate ways.”

Bella’s bright eyes held a hint of grief. “Don’t blame Justin. We’ve had some wonderful memories. over the past three years, and that’s enough. I don’t have any regrets.”

Justin frowned as he felt a surge of mixed emotions.
