The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Axel and Declan left the room and closed the door behind them to give Bella and Arnold some space. "Arnold," Bella cried out to him.

She was at a loss for words, as it did not seem appropriate to comfort him or talk about Asher.

The brief silence felt like a lifetime.

"I'm sorry, Bella." Keeping his head down, Arnold allowed tears to trickle down his cheeks.

Bella shook her head and comforted him. "Arnold, don't put the blame on yourself. You don't need to apologize to anyone.

"You simply fell in love with Ash. There isn't anything wrong with loving someone."

"It's all my fault."

Arnold hung his head low like a sinner, his fighting spirit gone. "Aunt Mila is right. I destroyed Ash. Everything wouldn't have happened if I had taken her advice. I'm unforgivable, Bella. I was selfish. I'd rather take the fall for everything than put Ash through this. I want everything to go back to how it was. But it's too late."

Bella felt a lump in her throat.
