The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge
Chapter 1353

When Steven spotted Bella and Justin, along with Asher and Arnold, coming to get him, he found it hard to hold back his emotions.

Tears started welling up in his eyes as he thought, 'Why me? Do I really deserve all this kindness and care?'

"Steve." Asher's gentle smile erased all doubt as he said, "Thank you for your hard work. We're here to take you home."

"Mr. Asher..." Steven's throat tightened. He was almost unable to speak.

Out of nowhere, Bella surged forward like a speeding arrow, taking Steven by surprise before Justin could even react. She stared at Steven with bloodshot eyes.

Justin felt his heart race and was extremely nervous. He thought she had calmed down, but her emotions flared up instantly when she saw Steven.

"Why did you plead guilty?!" Bella exclaimed angrily, her usually calm face now flushed with intense anger.

Steven felt like he had been stabbed in the throat. His parched lips quivered. "Ms. Bella, I'm sorry."

Bella's eyes turned red with tears. With a sudden movement, she angrily raised her hand and slapped him hard!

"Bella! Please stop!"

"Bella!"

Steven stood still as tears welled up in his eyes.

Her hands formed a fist and punched his shoulder. "Why did you plead guilty? Have you lost your mind?! We're the ones who did it, so we should take responsibility. Who are you to act like the hero?!"

"Ms. Bella... I was scared something would happen to you." Steven felt choked, struggling to speak. "You and Mr. Salvador have finally gotten back together. I didn't want either of you getting into trouble again..."

Justin felt a sharp pain in his heart, the intense emotion taking him by surprise.

Bella suddenly broke down in tears. But she did not feel grateful at all. "Steve, do you really think I'll be thanking you? Not a chance! This was all thanks to Asher's backup plan... What if it failed? You would've ended up in jail!"

She continued, "You keep saying it's for us, but have you ever thought that you are no longer alone? You have Amelia now! If you really end up in jail, what will Amelia do?! Have you ever thought about her at all? Have you?!"

'Amelia...' Steven felt a surge of icy electricity shoot through his brain and jolt all of his limbs, sending waves of pain pulsing through his heart.

"I hate you so much! I hate you so much!" Bella wanted to continue beating him, but fortunately Justin stepped forward just in time. He reached out and hugged her tightly from behind, offering warm comfort. Justin reassured her. "Bella, don't be angry. Steve is released now, and it's all over."

He continued, "I understand how worried you are about him. You are so worried that you don't know what to do. But it's been days since Steve was detained, and he must have gone through a lot. Maybe you could let him take some time to rest before coming to apologize to you?"

Justin's gentle persuasion gradually eased Bella's anxiety.

Asher and Arnold exchanged a knowing glance.

Despite Bella being the one who caused chaos, it was ultimately Justin who could keep her grounded.

Outside the door, the car was waiting.

A few people were about to escort Steven into the car.

Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat, and he abruptly turned around. The next moment, he eagerly called out with pale lips.

"Amelia... Amelia!"
