The Divorced Heiress Revenge Chapter 611-With downcast eyes, Asher glanced at his watch emotionlessly. “Mr. Iverson, I know my sister. She would never spend the night at a man’s house. She never once did. Yet, last night, she stayed at yours. You owe me an explanation.” “You won’t let her spend the night out, but you supported her secret marriage. You let her marry a jerk without being acknowledged and let her go through hell at her in-laws’ home for three years behind your father’s back.” Christopher sat across from Asher with a smile.
Asher’s breath hitched as he pursed his lips. “It’s not the same thing. Don’t try to turn it against us. Bella married Justin because she once loved him so much. She made that choice herself. As her brother, I respect her wishes, even though I disapprove of them. But you’re different, Mr. Iverson.” Christopher tensed his jawline, and his expression was no longer calm.
“I know Bella doesn’t feel the same way about you. Your pushiness on the matter will only annoy Bella and make me see you in a different light.” Aggression was reflected in Asher’s eyes.
Christopher pushed his gold-rimmed glasses up and smiled faintly.
He swallowed hard to fight back the fury.
“I only invited Bella here last night. My mother and I wanted to see her, and we had a pleasant dinner together. Justin later called Bella, and God knows what he said, because Bella passed out from rage.” Christopher was livid just thinking of last night’s incident.
Asher scowled.
He could tell the man was not lying, but Asher would not put all his faith in Christopher’s words.
“Even so, it is not right for you to keep Bella at your place for the night without informing us. Bella is the apple of my father’s eye, and she is precious to me too. Bella might not mind what happened last night, but I won’t let it slide.” Asher slowly rose to his feet and walked along the hallway to the entrance, looking intimidating. “Mr. Iverson, our parents are close, and you may have feelings for Bella, but I should make things clear for you on behalf of my father. You can be friends with Bella, but I am against you getting involved with her romantically. My father won’t approve of it either. You’ll never be associated with my family.” The words, though not hurtful, were humiliating.
In other words, Christopher could forget ever marrying or dating Bella.
As Asher made his way out, Christopher said with a smile, “Mr. Thompson, Bella will marry me one day, and I look forward to the day you attend our wedding.” “You must be dreaming to think Bella will marry you.” Asher scoffed and waltzed out the door.
The moment the door was closed, Christopher’s smile froze.
“When have I ever needed your approval to do anything? What a joke.” Just then, Christopher’s phone rang. It was his secretary calling.
“Mr. Iverson, I have two things to report to you. First, Ms. Zoe Hoffman just returned from abroad.” Christopher curled his lips. “And the other thing?” “You asked me to investigate Justin’s medical history. I have not gotten the specifics, but Justin was badly injured last month and was treated at Deux Hospital. He was discharged two days later.” “I don’t need to know the specifics. It’s enough for me to know that he was badly injured.” The man raised his brow with intrigue.
“What do you plan to do now, Mr. Iverson?” His secretary asked cautiously.
“I want him dead,” Christopher said menacingly.
The secretary sighed and lamented, “We are not in our territory. Otherwise, you would have killed Justin a long time ago.” “It’s fine. He’ll die in my hands sooner or later. I have patience.”
