Chapter One Hundred and ThreeThe more Max struggled, the more the two officers tightened their hold, causing him both pain and frustration."Are you people insane? Do you even know who you’re arresting? Let go of me!” Max shouted, turning to Bella, “Bella, help me, please. Don’t just stand there watching!”Bella, who had just been feigning weakness and sadness over her “best friend” going to prison, now looked at Max with utter indifference, her gaze filled with sarcasm and disdain."What are you talking about, darling husband? If I helped you, wouldn’t that make me an obstruction to law enforcement?"Max looked at Bella, bewildered. “What?”Seeing Max’s confusion, Bella had no patience to explain further. She raised her voice to address everyone present. “Ladies and gentlemen, honorable court, I am truly grateful that you all remain here so we may proceed with the next hearing immediately.”Bella glanced at Pearl, then at Max. “Yes, Max. You are indeed the next one after your little

Chapter One Hundred and FourThe next trial was also the trial of Max. Bella entrusted her lawyer to handle the case, including the divorce, as she felt she had fulfilled her obligations and wouldn’t have much time to concern herself with her ex-husband going forward.She also heard from her lawyer that her ex-husband had been shouting constantly in the holding cell, demanding to see her. He didn’t hesitate to play the pitiful card to try to earn sympathy from those around him.The thing that amused Bella most was that he kept claiming he loved her, blaming her for not letting him touch her and for her illness that prevented her from conceiving. He argued that he was forced to find another woman to bear him a child to “save” their marriage. According to him, he cheated only to preserve their marriage.Bella felt amused, unable to comprehend how he could be so shameless and oblivious to the wrongness of his actions. Even setting aside the infidelity, his plan to take over her father's

Chapter One Hundred and FiveIt wasn’t as if Bella just realized the difference between her and that man now; it was just that now she was truly serious about the matter. Bella didn’t spend too much time waiting for Levi—whenever she wanted to see him, all it took was a phone call, and he would always answer as if he were waiting just for her call.Before Levi arrived, Bella had thought of simply being straightforward and saying that their relationship was over; after all, she had never been polite with him. However, when Levi walked in, Bella felt anxious and flustered. Levi was always a strikingly handsome man, and wherever he appeared, he became the center of attention. Fortunately, the café wasn’t crowded now, and her table in the corner went largely unnoticed.“It’s rare for you to invite me out like this; you seem to be in a great mood,” Levi said, pulling out a chair to sit down. His smile was gentle and affectionate, yet his gaze seemed as if it wanted to devour her.Bella tri

Chapter One Hundred and SixAfter that meeting, Levi didn’t call or message her, which made Bella feel relieved. Bella never really knew what this man was thinking or what he would do next, so when he didn’t agree to her proposal, she felt a bit anxious."I thought he might do something… like harassment. I feel so lucky," Bella said as she sat in her new office, specifically the deputy director’s private office.Ever since Pearl was thrown into prison and Max was held in custody, the entire company was in chaos for days; no one could have expected that their director would be detained and soon face imprisonment.Bella brought one surprise after another because most people in the company didn’t know that she was the chairman’s daughter and the legal wife of Director Cooper. They only knew their director was married, but he had a rather ambiguous relationship with his personal secretary.Lauriel was particularly shocked. When she learned Bella’s true identity, her face turned pale, and

Chapter One Hundred and SevenEveryone in the courtroom cast curious glances at Bella.

Chapter 16

Chapter One Hundred and EightBella was still thinking about the court case and didn’t realize there was someone else in her office."Mr. Martin, you should knock before entering," Bella said with a professional smile.Henry chuckled lightly. "I did knock; you just didn’t hear it. How’s work lately? Any difficulties?"Henry’s tone was gentle and friendly, but Bella found it a bit awkward. Ever since Henry returned to the country and took over the position of director, he often came to her office to chat. However, having not seen him for a long time, Bella still felt distant from the man in front of her."No issues. I’ll get used to it soon enough. What brings you here, Mr. Martin?" Bella asked, her tone clearly conveying a sense of distance from Henry."You don’t need to be so formal and serious with me. After all, we’re family…" Henry said lightly but hesitated when mentioning her divorce. "I heard you got divorced…"Bella’s divorce and her lawsuit against her ex-husband and his mist

Chapter One Hundred and NineIt took Bella several seconds to react. She frowned slightly and looked straight at the man in front of her."Hey, you’re—"“Mr. Karter, I didn’t expect you to visit my home at this hour. Since it was unannounced, I am genuinely surprised. Please forgive me for not being able to welcome you in the best way possible,” Mr. James, initially startled, quickly regained his composure and smiled warmly at the man.As soon as Mr. James finished speaking, Bella became even more surprised. Her father knew Levi? No, the fact that her father knew him wasn’t the issue; it was her father’s deferential attitude towards him that was.Bella knew Levi was influential in elite circles, but she had always treated him as an equal. She had never lowered herself before him, and Levi had never shown any issue with that. Yet, her father—an influential figure in the business world who had never bowed or tried to curry favor with anyone—was now acting so humble in front of Levi. Thi
