Chapter 972
“Didn’t have a good relationship? How thick of a skin must you have to say this in front of Bella?”
Justin stood out without hesitation at this moment. His eyes narrowed, and he did not conceal his disdain. “You are merely my
father’s second wife, and I am not your son. You were never Bella’s mother-in-law in the first place. But even so, Bella respected you during the three years she lived with the Salvador family and always satisfied your unreasonable requests. She endured you and Bethany’s bullying. Why aren’t you speaking of those now?” NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Bella felt a lump form in her throat. The upsetting past resurfaced in
her mind, causing her fingers to curl.
Although Justin did not look at her, he understood her bitterness and
held her hand with a force she could not resist. “Also, Bella married
me because she loved me. Is there anything wrong with loving
someone? She did not do anything wrong. I was the one who m
mistake. I didn’t see through Rosalind’s true colors and kept co
with her while married, hurting Bella’s heart. I didn’t know my own
feelings. I fell in love with Bella long ago but did not know it.”
At this moment, the camera flashes erupted again.
The president of the Salvador Corporation protected his former wife
in front of all the media, and he even admitted that he had an affair!
Shannon’s expression changed. Even Bethany was dumbfounded, her
mouth hanging open.

They did not expect that for Bella, Justin was willing to throw away
his image, reputation, and identity!
They had underestimated Justin’s love for Bella.
He was willing to shatter to pieces himself if it meant she remained
unscathed; he was willing to be covered in filth for her to remain pure.
Bella’s lips trembled, and she stared at Justin’s back, standing as firm
as a rock in front of her. For a moment, her emotions surged, making her almost teary-eyed.
What moved her more than saying “I love you” a thousand times was that Justin understood her grievances and wanted the best for her.
“I’ll make it clear one more time, and hopefully the last time.”
Justin’s sharp gaze swept across Shannon and Bethany, finally
passing over the crowd. “In our divorce, I was in the wrong, and it has
nothing to do with Ms. Bella. If any media dares to write anything
against Ms. Bella, even one word, I will investigate it thorough
make the rumor-mongers pay a painful price!”
His words stunned everyone.
Shannon and Bethany shivered. They tacitly stepped back, not daring
to provoke further.
“Awesome.” Ralph was impressed and clapped as a sign of respect.
Asher and Axel nodded as well, expressing their agreement.
Drew, watching from a distance, curled his lips. He turned around and lit a cigarette, revealing a satisfied smile.

“This brat is looking more and more like my brother-in-law.”
At this moment, a reporter was caught in the moment and asked loudly, “Mr. Salvador! Since you and Ms. Bella are divorced, why do you still interact so much? I’ve been following both of you for a while. When Ms. Bella encountered several difficulties, you always stood out to help her. Do you treat her so well because she was your ex- wife, or do you still have lingering feelings for her?”
“Yeah! Mr. Salvador, what is your relationship with Ms. Bella now?” The other reporters echoed.
Just as Bella was at a loss for what to do, Justin’s eyes reddened, and he said clearly, “Once, she was my ex-wife. Now, I am hers.”
As his words fell, he turned around to look at Bella. Tears filled his
eyes when their gazes met.
