The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge novel Chapter 482

Chapter 482 

“Am I getting married, or are you getting married? I’m talking business with Ms. Thompson. It is rude of you to butt in.” 

Ada glared at her agent. “I chose to work with Ms. Thompson 

because I have the utmost trust in her. I’m glad to accept her 

suggestions, so keep your thoughts to yourself.” 

Once Bella and Ada signed a new agreement, Bella entrusted her 

team to see Ada’s party off while she passed the assignment details 

to her employees before leaving for the day. 

She saw Asher’s Rolls Royce waiting outside the office entrance. The 

chauffeur opened the door for her with respect. 

“Ash! What brings you here to pick me up?” Bella got into the car and 

sought Asher’s attention by clinging to his neck. 

“I heard that you gave Steve a week-long vacation.” Asher stroked her 

head. 

“Yeah. He’s been tired lately. It’s a much-needed rest for him.” 

“Is that so?” 

Asher narrowed his eyes, seeing through her. “Trouble seems to 

follow you lately, and you need help. Why did you dismiss Steve in a time of need? Did you have a lover’s squabble?” 

Bella furrowed her brows. “What are you trying to say, Ash? We’re not 

dating. What do you mean by a lover’s squabble?” 

“Ah, I guess the guy doesn’t get to bring home the girl, then.” 

“What are you talking about, Ash?” Bella’s eyes widened. 

“Steve’s feelings for you are clear to us,” Asher said with a faint smile. 

“Us?” 

“Aunt Mila too. She mentioned it to me a few days ago because she 

couldn’t bring herself to tell you.” 

Bella was speechless. Everybody was aware of Steven’s little crush 

on her. 

As if things were not awkward enough as they were. 

“Aunt Mila was worried that Steve’s feelings for you might be an 

inconvenience to your life since you spend every waking minute 

together. She doesn’t feel comfortable that you are living with him in 

the Savrow villa,” Asher said while holding his sister’s hand. 

Mila’s observation of Bella’s love life was out of concern because 

Bella was like a daughter to Mila. 

For all Mila knew, Steven could give in to his primal urges and get handsy with Bella. 

“I have faith in Steve’s character. He will never overstep his 

boundaries, but I have to ask why you gave him a long vacation out of 

the blue.” 

“Honestly speaking, I’m giving Steve a chance to reflect on his 

actions.” 

Bella did not need anything from her brother. Her expression turned solemn. “I have noticed his feelings for me, so I told him to take the week off to get into the right mindset. It’s a wake-up call for him. 

“If he can’t move on, I can’t keep him by my side anymore.” 

Asher scowled. “That’s harsh. Are you really going to drop him if that 

happens?” 

“I’m doing this for his own good.” 

Bella sighed miserably. “A man is not in the cards for me anymore. Things will never happen between us. It will hurt and pain him to work alongside me, knowing his feelings will never be reciprocated. I know the heartbreak of having the one that got away. I don’t want the people I care about to ever go through that. Steve is a nice guy. He shouldn’t be wasting his time with me. He deserves better.” 

Feeling for Bella, Asher gave her a big hug. 

His phone rang. 

Without pushing his sister away, Asher answered the phone with a 

stern voice, “What is it?” 

“Mr. Thompson, Bethany was just released without charge. H Lovett got her out.”
