Chapter 164
“Why?” Justin frowned.
God knew how long it took him to mentally prepare himself to say sorry to Anna. He even
had insomnia for a whole week.
Justin planned to wait until the day of his grandfather’s birthday to tell Anna in person, but
when he saw Ryan at her home tonight, he could not wait any longer and wanted to see
her as soon as possible.
He did not know what was wrong with him. He had never been like this before.
His emotions were always easy to control. But lately, Justin gradually discovered that Anna
seemed to hold the switch to his emotions.
“Rosalind should come and apologize to me in person. What does it mean for you to
apologize to me on her behalf? Are you trying to show off your love for her?”
Bella’s eyes were as cold as ice. “If she kills someone, will you go to jail for her too?”
“Anna, I’m here to sincerely apologize to you!” Justin raised his voice, and his eyes were
red.
“I think you’re deliberately trying to provoke me.

Bella laughed out loud. Her clear eyes glinted coldly in the night. “Justin, if you don’t
understand what I’m saying, it’s better for you not to apologize. That word has no

meaning coming from you.”
“Anna, why are you picking on me?” Justin’s tone was harsh.
“You’re the one picking on me. I didn’t ask you to come here. You came here on your own
accord to cause trouble.”
Bella struggled to free her wrist, but her bones ached. “Let go! I’m going back inside.”
“So what if I’m apologizing to you on her behalf? I’ve already humbled myself to this
extent. What do you want for you to be satisfied?!” Justin could no longer control his
anger. He grabbed her shoulders with both hands and shook her.
“Justin, I’ve never wanted your humility.”
Bella thought to herself, ‘What I want is for you to love me, but I know that I will never get
your love. I accepted it and finally let go, so why do you keep provoking me? Am I such a
pushover to you?”
Bella laughed bitterly, and her eyes turned red.
Her eyes were beautiful, and her gaze was scorching, burning Justin’s trembling heart.
“I want you to disappear from my world completely. Just leave. Goodbye.”
Bella pushed Justin away, but he grabbed her wrist again. “How could I disappear? You and
I have been married for three years. Our divorce will be on your record forever. You can’t
erase the past!”
“It’s possible if I want it to be. You might think that we’re divorced, but I think that I’m
widowed.” Bella’s eyes were extremely contemptuous. It was as if he was an insignificant
speck of dirt.
Justin’s eyes flickered. He felt like he had received a heavy blow. There was a buzzing
sound in his ear, and his head hurt.
He took a breath. His hands were trembling with pain as he said, “Anna, if I don’t let you
go, you will always have my name tied to yours! If I don’t divorce you, you can’t even
think about starting a new life!”
Slap-!
Bella tried hard to keep the tears from falling. Finally, she could not bear it any longer and
slapped Justin hard on the face.
This was the second time she hit him, but her mood was completely different from the first
time.
Her heart ached so much at this moment. It felt as if she had been stabbed by his words.
“Justin, if I’d known how despicable you were, I wouldn’t have married you in the first
place!”
Bella quickly got out of the car and slammed the door shut.
She did not even bother to hold an umbrella as she rushed back to the villa in the rain.
Justin’s head was tilted sideways from the slap, and he looked dumbfounded.
After some time, he bent his tall body and held his aching head while trembling. He looked

When Bella got back home, she avoided Steven and ran to her room.
As soon as she ran upstairs, she could not hold it in anymore. She held the wall with her
left hand and clutched her robe with her right hand, panting as if she had been drowning.
She tried hard to suppress her tears.
“Anna?”
Ryan’s worried voice came from behind. Bella gritted her teeth and swallowed back her
tears.
“I’m tired and want to rest, so I won’t send you off. Thanks for your gift.”
“Anna… What’s wrong?” Ryan asked with a trembling heart.
“I’m fine. Goodnight.”
“Anna!”
Ryan caught up with her in long strides, grabbed her thin shoulders with both hands, and
forced her to face him.
He was so strong that Bella felt dizzy from the spin. Her teary eyes were dazed and
irritated.
She looked even more stunning like this.
“You cried?” Ryan stared at her, dumbfounded
“No,” Bella replied coldly, but her red eyes betrayed her.
“Anna, did Justin make you angry? He’s such a stupid and stubborn man. Don’t bother with
him. He’s not worth your tears.”
