The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge
Chapter 1352

"You just found out, huh? You don't know much about my family background, and yet you still want to be with me?" Bella playfully flicked Justin's head. "I have three stepmothers, and each one is more formidable than the last."

Justin looked at her with a wry smile. Bella's family history was incredibly intricate, enough to boggle his mind. It required quite an imaginative mind to consider the possibility that Sasha might be the daughter of the leader of the Southern Star Syndicate.

"Bella, you shouldn't talk about Justin like that. Besides those who are close to us, Mr. Jenkins has never revealed Aunt Sasha's identity."

Asher was in a good mood after sorting out Steven's issue. He even kept up his friendly tone with Justin and stopped addressing him as "Mr. Salvador".

He continued, "After all, the world is a scary place, filled with dangers and dark forces. Mr. Jenkins only does it to protect his one and only daughter."

Justin slightly puckered his lips, feeling warm in his heart. He knew that deep down, Asher was very much like him-seemingly tough but actually affectionate.

Bella nodded in agreement. "Well, that's true. Although Mr. Jenkins strongly dislikes Wyatt for deceiving his beloved daughter and even threatened to break their father-daughter relationship, I know he truly cares for Aunt Sasha."

Suddenly, she clenched her fist and thumped it into her palm, letting out a sigh of regret. "I've heard that poop tastes like sweet potatoes. That bastard Hunter ran so quickly, I didn't even have the chance to ask him about it. I'm really curious!"

Justin, Asher, and Arnold were speechless upon hearing this.

The day had yet to begin, but for Steven, it had already been a long one, as the night had been quite eventful.

Before Bella and the others showed up, Steven was still a suspected criminal at the mercy of others.

But now, Superintendent Donald personally came to release him. Not only that, he even greeted Steven with a warm smile and kind words as he escorted him out of the cell. Steven was absolutely shocked. He had been locked up the entire time and had no clue about the dramatic showdown that had taken place at the police station that evening.

"Mr. Lovett, the case has been thoroughly investigated. The evidence is clear, and you're proven innocent." Superintendent Donald beamed with a huge smile on his face, looking like a golden retriever. "We've withdrawn the confession, and Mr. Iverson has also agreed to a settlement. You're free to go now."

"Mr. Iverson... agreed to a settlement?"

How could that be possible?

Superintendent Donald chuckled. "Mr. Lovett, you have quite the influence. Even Ms. Thompson and Mr. Salvador took notice of you. Thanks to you, I got to meet them in person. It would've been tough for me to meet such important people otherwise."

Steven's eyes widened in shock. "Ms. Thompson and Mr. Salvador?!"

Superintendent Donald continued with a flattering smile on his face. "I really went all out to support you this time. I immediately informed the higher-ups about your situation. When the Iverson family accused you, I ensured that they quickly uncovered the truth to clear your name! I truly didn't intend to cause any trouble for you. So... Please go back and put in a good word for me with Ms. Thompson and Mr. Salvador. If you ever need my help again in the future, I will do my best without any hesitation."

Steven clenched his jaws as he slowly turned his icy stare toward the deceptive and hypocritical person in front of him. It was unbelievable that someone so selfish and shameless could be the chief of the police department.

Oh my goodness, the people of Savrow were all two-faced!

"You don't need to wait for me to return. I'm Ms. Thompson's secretary, so I can respond on her behalf right now."

Steven's cold and stern gaze struck him like a bolt of lightning in the face. "Someone like you who only cares about money and abuses power is a piece of trash, just like the Iversons. If you think you can form a relationship with Ms. Thompson, think again!"

Before Steven left the police station, he stopped by the bathroom to freshen up.

He did not want Bella to see him looking all worn out and low-spirited because he was worried it might make her feel uneasy.
