Bella can’t help but smile widely, looking at Henry’s annoyed expression.
Flashing him with another broad smile, Bella walked into the ward room without waiting for his response. However, her smile instantly vanishes when she meets a few pairs of eyes staring at her.
‘Oh, crap!! Why are they all here? Did they know I will come today?’ Bella asks herself while looking at her grandpa Butler, Nick, as if trying to ask him, “What’s going on? Why are they gathering here?”
When Bella saw Nick’s innocent expression, she could only give him a slight nod before calmly entering the room and heading toward the seating area.
Bella feels like her luck was running thin today. She deliberately visited her grandfather during working hours. Still, all the uncles and aunts who managed the Donovan Company were now gathered in this room.
‘Did something happen to grandfather?’ Bella wondered while quickly glancing at the patient’s bed at the end of the room.

Bella couldn’t see his grandfather’s face clearly but knew her grandpa was okay. She feels slightly relieved.
eShe politely smiled at all her uncles and aunties in the oroom, still looking at her sharply. They all had similar pexpressions – shock and disbelief to see her appear in e the room as if she had just returned from the dead.
n’incle, Aunty, it’s nice to meet you all here.” Bella eetected them politely and flashed her sweet smile.
wewever, no matter how much she smiled, it never iterea reached her eyes, and the welcoming emotion e put out on her face never sincerely came from her art. SheShe really hated them for what they did to her.

with a thick mustache stood up from his chair. His sharp eyes looked at Nick, then turned to Bella.
The man didn’t rush to continue to speak, but he scanned Bella from head to toe as if he wanted to eat her alive. Bella silently swallowed, looking at the man she once respected but not anymore.
“You, do you have no shame? Why do you still dare to appear before us after what you did?” The man continued in a disgusted tone. “Get out of this room before I drag you out!” he roars.
Bella didn’t say anything. She only stared at her first uncle – her grandfather’s oldest child. He runs the company as the CEO; his name is Jacob Donovan.
She feels puzzled; why did he blame her!?
The room fell silent again. No one said a word.
However, shortly after, a woman with short bla stood beside Jacob Donovan
“Brother Jacob, keep your emotions in check. Don your blood pressure rise because Bella…” The woma said softly.
“Emma, stop defend her!! You know… this

She is a useless woman. How dare she accept the v divorce without telling us anything!?” Jacob snapped.
cJacob can’t hold his anger when he remembers a few ayears ago, because of Bella and Tristan’s sudden volivorce, their business was on the verge of bankruptcy. even now, their company has not recovered.
knownow, brother. But you can’t be angry with me thetherglright!?” Emma said weakly. Before Jacob could ntintenue his anger, Emma said, “And what’s the point scoldinging Bella now!?

anything, even though she wants to help her. Her first uncle would be even more fuming if she said
something now. She doesn’t want to be blamed again if her uncle suddenly dies of a heart attack. She decides only to listen.
“Jacob, your blood pressure… Please stop.” Another woman in the room tries to calm Jacob – she is Jacob’s
wife.
But the stubborn Jacobs is still angry at Bella. He blamed her because the Donovan Group suffered so much loss after Sinclair Corps no longer continued their collaboration – with their primary business, a Construction company – in various projects in this
city.
Bella remained silent. When her uncle and aunt argued, she took the opportunity to move near M
When Nick’s eyes flashed with guilt for putting B a situation like this, Bella answered with a faint sm and whispered, “Nick, don’t worry about me. I’m stronger than before.”
“Glad to hear that, miss…” Nick replies in a hushed
tone.

“But, Nick. Why didn’t you ever tell me about the company? Did they are good now!?” She asked again.
Before Nick could answer Bella, another loud voice
echoed in the room.
“Brother Jacob,” the younger uncle finally chimed in, staring at Jacob with concern. “You have to listen to what Sister Emma and Sister-in-law say. If you are still venting your anger, you might be rushed to the emergency room!”
Jacob narrowed his eyes, looking at his younger brother, Thomas. “You seem to be going soft on her now, Thomas? Did this good-for-nothing girl send you some money she got from Sinclair!?”
“Hahaha, I wish she would send half of her money to me, but unfortunately, she is not…” Thomas laugh then slowly turns his gaze to Bella.
Thomas’s laugh vanished instantly, and his calm expression turned sharp. “Why did you come here. Have you run out of money, and then you come back here again to beg for money?”
Bella listened to their verbal abuse with a calm, indifferent expression. Still, now she felt she needed

to answer them.
However, a loud ‘bang’ sound was heard when Bella
wanted to say something.
All eyes now looked towards the entrance.
