The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 2339

"Justin, you bastard! If anything happens to Ms. Bella, you'll regret it for the rest of your life!"

The frigid night air was biting, with the temperature plunging to a bone-chilling minus 20 degrees Celsius.

The blizzard in the mountains grew fiercer, cutting across Bella's face like a bone-scraping razor-cold and sharp. The frenzied shadows of the trees, the howling wind around her, and the unspeakable eerie atmosphere added to the suffocating sorrow already weighing on her heart.

Bracing against the piercing wind and trudging through the snow with the support of her cane, Bella moved forward, each step deep and uncertain. She had no destination in mind and no idea where she was headed.

Her heart was broken, in a state of despair. The plummeting temperature lowered her willpower, leaving her with no motivation to keep going.

Adrift in the savage mountain wilderness, a person without the will to live on was no different than a lamb before being slaughtered. One wrong step and nature's merciless hand could easily swallow her whole.

"Justin... I hate you... I hate you so much..."

Bella forced her numb legs to keep moving as she muttered hoarsely, her eyes reddened, and tears frozen at their

corners.

She had planned to use this climb as a chance to revisit the places they'd been, to return to the cave where they had once sought refuge from a landslide, reliving their shared moments of peril.

But now, it was all a dream, turned to dust.

They had no more chances.

"Bella... it's time to wake up."

Shivering uncontrollably, Bella squeezed her eyes shut, ice crystals gathering beneath them.

"He truly doesn't want you anymore... To him, you're no longer important..."

She choked on the final words, tears escaping as she spoke. Helplessness, resentment, and pain gnawed at her heart, torn and tattered.

Suddenly, as she staggered forward, Bella's foot slipped, and she tumbled down the slope.

She rolled multiple times, her body collecting snow until she resembled a snowball before crashing heavily against a massive rock at the base of the hill.

"Ah!" Even though she was wearing a down jacket, the dull pain shot through her entire body, paralyzing her and making it impossible for her to get up from the ground.

For a long time, she laid there staring at the pitch-black sky, utterly alone.

At last, she gritted her teeth and tried to rise, only for her frozen legs to refuse to cooperate.

As despair set in, her gaze faltered.

The giant rock before her was the same one she had sheltered behind during a storm when she was eleven and lost in the mountains. It was the same place where she had first met Justin as a boy, the place where their fateful bond had begun.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

After wandering around, she ended up back here.

Bella leaned weakly against the rock, curling into a pitiful ball. She laughed through her tears.

As soon as the private jet landed, Justin got into his sports car, speeding alone toward Mount Jaglee National

Forest Park

The wind howled in the blizzard, and the road conditions were poor with low visibility.

He raced along the highway, the tires skidding dangerously several times, narrowly avoiding serious accidents by the sheer force of his driving skill.

Just three kilometers from Mount Jaglee National Forest Park, another black sports car roared from behind, racing alongside him and matching his speed.

Justin's palms glistened with sweat as he clutched the steering wheel. He sensed danger. The sinister air clung to his nerves like frost.

He suddenly glanced over. His eyes widened in shock.

The window of the car beside him rolled down.

In the raging cold wind, Justin saw a handsome face, chiseled but ice-cold.

It was Jace!

Justin pressed his lips together, his chest rising and falling rapidly, his temples throbbing intensely. The very next moment, his eyes suddenly widened in shock.

Jace, his expression as calm and composed as a still pond, maintained a firm grip on the steering wheel with one hand.

His other hand was raised as he aimed a gun at Justin's head!
