The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 168
Bethany’s carefully made-up face froze. Her heart trembled in fear.
“Also, are we that close? Don’t you think it’s inappropriate for you to hug me like this?” Ryan’s eyes were cold as he forcefully
pulled out his arm.
“Mr. Hoffman, I’m sorry. You’re my brother’s close friend, so I think of you as my brother too. I have no other intentions...”
Bethany was afraid that Ryan would hate her, so she quickly explained herself.
“You’re his sister, not mine. Watch your behavior next time.”
Ryan replied coldly, turned around, and left.
Anna had given him this suit. He could not bear to wash it, let alone allow others to get it dirty.
Bethany clenched her fists reluctantly. Her nails dug into her palms until they were almost bleeding.
Suddenly, Ryan stopped walking. He put one hand in his pants pocket and looked at Bethany with squinted eyes.
Bethany quickly flashed a bright smile. Her heart was beating with excitement.
She thought, ‘I knew it! Ryan only seems cold on the outside. He must have feelings for me.’
“I really don’t understand girls’ fashion these days.”
“What?” Bethany was startled.
“I’ve heard of lipstick, but I thought it’s supposed to be used on the lips, not the teeth. I guess. I’ve learned something new today.”
Ryan laughed jokingly and walked away gracefully.
Only then did Bethany return to her senses. She hurriedly ran to the bathroom and bared her teeth in the mirror.
That was when she saw lipstick sticking to her front teeth.
“Ah!” Bethany shouted in shame, wanting to smash the mirror.
Ryan opened the door and walked into the study. He sat on the sofa with his long legs stretched out, looking leisurely.,

“That third sister of yours is a real hooligan, molesting me the first moment she sees me. Tsk, tsk! Why are these women so
unrestrained? I’m sure Anna wouldn’t do something like this.”
Justin was reviewing the documents that Ian sent over. When he heard this, he looked up at Ryan coldly.
“What are you doing here?”
“I’m here to see if you caught a cold from standing out in the rain all night.” Ryan narrowed
eyes, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, and held it between his lips.

Justin was irritated and glared at Ryan with hostility.

Indeed, Justin had been married to Anna for three years, but he had to stand and wait for her outside in the rain and even get
slapped.
Looking at it this way, Justin thought that Ryan was indeed better off than he was.
The more he thought about it, the more ridiculous it seemed. He became infuriated.
Ryan crushed the cigarette butt in the crystal ashtray, stood up, and walked to Justin. He put his arms on the edge of the table
and looked at him with narrowed eyes.
Justin met his oppressive gaze calmly.
“Justin, I’m going to pursue Anna and make her mine.”
Ryan’s eyes were bright and sharp. He wanted to cut-Justin open and take a closer look to see what was so great about him.
Justin treated Anna so badly. He neglected her for three years and forced her to get a divorce. Justin was a horrible husband.

Ryan was unconvinced.
Justin’s breath hitched. His knuckles turned white from gripping the pen too hard. “Don’t forget. She’s already with Asher.”
“I don’t care, as long as she’s not with you.’

Justin’s blood surged to his head, and his breath trembled.
“Asher and Anna aren’t married, so what if they’re together?”
Ryan slowly approached Justin and raised his eyebrows. “You’re the obstacle here. Grandpa Nigel’s birthday is coming soon,
and you’re about to marry Rosalind, but you still run over to Anna’s house and stand in the rain so pitifully. Why did you do that?
Were you trying to reenact ‘The Notebook”?”
Justin felt a bitterness in his heart. “I have my own reasons for seeing her.
))
“Justin, I don’t care what your reasons are. You have a fiancée, so you shouldn’t bother Anna anymore,” Ryan said bluntly.

“I won’t do that again.”
Justin took a deep breath and frowned. “But I want to remind you that if you really like her, you shouldn’t cause her more trouble.
Everyone in the Thompson family likes her very much. They’re looking forward to her marrying Asher, so your presence may
create more obstacles for her to marry into a wealthy family.”
“What the fuck?! Do you think the Thompson family is the only wealthy family around? What about my family?”
Ryan raised his eyebrows and blurted out in anger. “Also, there is no way she will marry Asher!”
“What did you say?”
Justin keenly noticed something strange. He suddenly leaned forward in his chair and asked, Why did you say that?”

“I have my reasons for saying this. I don’t think that she’s in that kind of relationship with Asher. I don’t think she likes Asher.
She’s probably using Asher just to make you angry. If I were her, I would also find a new lover to provoke you and show you that
even if you divorced me, I’m still desirable to other men!”
