After finishing his meal and putting down his chopsticks, Michael Marshall glared coldly at Bella Thompson.

“Daniel almost had a car accident today, did you know that?”

Bella’s eyes widened in surprise as she shook her head at Michael, “I didn’t know.”

Bella’s elation was instantly extinguished by Michael’s questioning; it was as if a pail of cold water had been dumped on her head, chilling her to the bone.

Michael’s words cut like a keen blade straight into Bella’s heart. His face was cold and ruthless. “Do you know if your brother knew about it?”Rread latest chapters at novelhall.com

Bella shook her head again, her eyes lacklustre, “I’m not sure, but I can call him in front of you.”

Michael was silent, his narrowed eyes watching Bella intently.

Bella didn’t avoid Michael’s scrutinizing gaze, she dialed her brother’s number and put the call on speaker.

“Sis, why are you calling me so late? Is there something you need?”

“Sebastian, I heard that Daniel almost had a car accident today. Do you know anything about this? Was it your doing?”

Without hesitation, Sebastian replied, “Sis, I didn’t do anything. I’ve been at home all day, trying to recuperate. I’m going to listen to you from now on. I dare not stir up trouble anymore.”

“Husband, you heard it all. My brother and I truly had no idea. We’ve taken our lesson to heart and we truly have changed.”

Michael’s piercing gaze remained locked on Bella, as if trying to see right through her.

Michael’s expression grew somber, a hint of menace noticeable in his features.

Just a moment ago, he had heard James Marshall’s name from Sebastian.

Unexpectedly, these siblings seemed rather close to James, and even appeared to be well aware of his ambitions – seemingly they hadn’t been idle.

It seemed that this pair of siblings had been concealing many things from him, they were crafty and ambitious.

He suspected they might even be plotting schemes behind his back.

Michael remained silent, his eyes riveting on her with such intensity that it appeared like sparks might fly. Bella felt a prickle run from her scalp down her neck, causing her pupils to involuntarily contract.

“Husband, don’t you believe me?”

Michael spoke slowly, his soft voice carrying an intimidating force, “Daniel said that he went to visit Joseph Charles’ grave today. He also said that when his mother was alive, she told him that she had been wronged.”

In that instant, Bella felt as if her heart was lodged in her throat, her eyes involuntarily widening.

A slight twitch at the corner of her mouth, Bella’s face twisted reflexively and she felt as if her breath had been snatched away.
