The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge
Chapter 1295

Justin said, "My self-control collapses in your presence, leaving me vulnerable."

Bella's eyes reddened slightly as her warm breath lingered in his ear. Her voice was soft and melodious. "My man did so well today. I shall reward you tonight."

The vital exchange event for Savrow concluded in a bizarre yet dramatic scene.

The public airing of Theodore's scandal-ridden political career elicited widespread societal outrage and had an extremely negative impact. It even drew the President's attention, who mandated a comprehensive probe into Theodore's family and all officials connected to him privately so as to stamp out corruption.

Everyone in the political arena felt threatened, except those who deeply despised Theodore.

The Iversons also suffered collateral damage. Not only was the Iversons' reputation tarnished and their dignity lost, but they also came under scrutiny from the authorities.

As Lance scrolled through Twitter on his way home, he saw people mocking the shoe he left at the venue with the caption, "Everyone deserves a 'Tycoon style' shoe too!"

It infuriated him so much that he threw his phone out, shattering the windshield of his luxury car.

After a tumultuous return home, it was already late at night.

Unable to sleep, Lance called everyone to the living room for a meeting.

Charles, still groggy from alcohol, stumbled in cursing, only for his father to slap him awake.

Christopher sat calmly aside, elbow on the armrest, fist propping his head, watching the drama unfold with interest.

"There's clearly someone behind orchestrating Theodore's scandal! Who could it be? Who dares plot against the Iverson family?!" Lance roared furiously, almost smashing the expensive coffee table to pieces. Having commanded respect for decades, how did Lance reach such a low point? He ruined his reputation and even lost his shoe. It seemed only extreme measures could soothe his fury. "Dad, now that Theodore's arrested, there's going to be serious repercussions for our family."

James brooded, his expression dark and serious. "Our immediate concern should be to sever all ties with him. We also need to quickly destroy any evidence of the benefits we gained through his position that could implicate our family. This situation has alarmed the president, and if it continues to unfold this way, the investigation will soon reach us."

"What? Theodore the leech got arrested? Why?!" Charles' eyes were blurry from intoxication, trying to understand the situation.

"You brainless fool, full of nothing but booze! All you do is drink and chase after women. You're not even a fraction of the man your brothers are! How did I even end up with such a useless son like you?!" Lance had completely lost his patience with Charles, and his words, spoken in anger, were harsh and humiliating, cutting deep.

Charles was especially sensitive about comparisons to Christopher and accusations of impotence.

Now, his own father was mercilessly hitting all his sore spots.

"My current predicament is all thanks to Bella!"

With eyes red and breath heavy with rage, Charles blurted out, "If it wasn't for that self-righteous quack of a doctor who operated on me, how could I have ended up so pathetic?! It's all that bitch's fault!" "Who did you just call a bitch?"

Christopher's lips parted slightly, his cool, pale voice breaking the silence as he fixed his gaze on Charles, his eyes glinting with a chilling, bloodthirsty menace. "I dare you to say it again."

Charles' heart skipped a beat. He stumbled back nervously onto the sofa, his tone diminishing in strength. "Anyway, it's all Bella Thompson's fault! She was the one who operated on my leg. Why did my lower half stop functioning? She must've sabotaged me!"

In the past, Charles would have never feared Christopher.

But now, disabled and fallen from grace both in the company and with their father, Charles was all bark and no bite, not daring to confront Christopher head-on anymore.

"Pfft! Charles, Dad said your brain is full of shit, and here you are, eager to prove him right."

Christopher adjusted his glasses, a scornful smile playing on his lips. "If Bella really wanted to harm you, she would've simply made you a high-level paraplegic. So, what you're saying is that in order to harm you, she healed your leg only to render you impotent? Heh... Keep those brain-dead comments within the family, please. Don't embarrass the Iverson name elsewhere."

"You!" Charles was so furious that his face turned red.

"Enough! Stop buzzing around like a fly!"
