The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 834

The atmosphere immediately became tense.

Arnold's eyes widened, as if he had heard something extremely

hurtful to his self-esteem. His face flushed with anger, and it took

him a moment to respond. “Huh?”

“Dr. Larson, have you been in Meridan for too long that your English has
regressed? Do you want me to translate that into French for you?”

Bella's beautiful eyes hid a hint of cunning, and her smile carried an

invisible pressure, suppressing Arnold's free-spirited soul. Few

women could pull off such a commanding smile.

Arnold asked through gritted teeth. “Are you saying that I didn’t

accept him as a patient because I couldn't cure Justin's illness? Is that what
you're implying?”

“Is there any other explanation?” Bella shrugged.

“What a joke!” Arnold slammed the table in frustration. “Ms.

Thompson, have you been out of the country for too long? Don’t you

know that my reputation in Meridan is even greater than that of Dr

Brown? I have solved countless difficult and complicated cases in my medical
career, and I lost count of how many people I have saved

from the brink of death. Even the Grim Reaper takes a backseat when

I'm on duty. Saying my medical skills are not up to par is simply

insulting!”

Bella smiled without saying a word, quietly watching him get angry.

Suddenly, Arnold seemed to catch on. He leaned back, squinting at

her playfully. “Nice try, Ms. Thompson. That's a nice trick, but I'm not buying it. I
won't fall for your schemes.”

“You know, Dr. Larson, I always thought you were more open-

minded.” Bella's tone held a mix of surprise and disappointment. “I mean, despite
claiming that you don't treat the rich, you should know

that Mr. Salvador isn’t just some rich guy. He's a well-known figure among the
country’s top entrepreneurs, and he has done a ton of charity work since taking
over as the President of Salvador

Corporation. He has helped countless people through his foundation.

Surely, you've heard about all that, right?”

Bella added, “And yet, despite knowing all this, you still stick to your so
-called “principles’. Don’t you think you're being a bit too rigid and

inflexible?”

Even as she spoke, Bella couldn't help but be surprised by her own

words. It had been years since their divorce, yet she found herself defending
Justin without hesitation.

Setting aside her emotions, it was a fact that Justin was undeniably

skilled. If one were to look past his emotional flaws, he could be said

to be almost perfect.

Otherwise, Bella wouldn't have silently loved him for so many year

without growing tired. When a woman feels both gratitude and

admiration for a man, there's no easy way out. Unfortunately for

Bella, she felt both for Justin.

That's why she has been obsessed for thirteen years.

“Ms. Thompson, it's pointless no matter what you say,” Arnold insisted, though he
seemed to be swayed by her words. “No matter

what you say, I won't give in. Just the fact that you used your brother to kidnap
me back from abroad says it all. There is nothing to talk

about between us. You rely on your wealth and power and don't even

have the most basic respect for other people. I'm booking a ticket

back immediately, and if you dare to stop me, I'll call the police!”

Just as Arnold was about to leave, Bella calmly took a sip of tea and

sighed softly, “Even Dr. Brown couldn't solve the problem. I thought

you were our only hope, but now...”

Arnold froze in his tracks, his eyes widening in shock. “Who? Who are you talking
about?!”

“Dr Brown.”

“You mean, Dr. Brown is treating Justin? That old doc is so unwise!” Arnold
couldn't help but sigh.

Bella, who was usually calm and collected, couldn't contain her

excitement. She slapped the table suddenly and said, “Hey, don't

insult her like that. Dr. Brown is not old at all!”

“I'm being respectful! Dr. Brown is my idol!” Arnold exclaimed with

admiration. “Although I haven't seen her in person, in my mind, she’s

perfect in every way.”

Bella remained silent, listening intently.

“In our field, achieving Dr. Brown's level of expertise and performing numerous
high-profile surgeries would take at least thirty years! So what's wrong with
calling her an old doctor?”
