Chapter 403: 403: Admiring Olivia Jenkins
Bella also felt an indescribable desolation, along with deep sorrow, stir within her.
Today, Sebastian Thompson also realised how tough his sister’s situation was, and how much she had been wronged.
Although resentment filled his heart, Sebastian had to control himself at the entrance of Beverly Hills; this place was monitored, and the old man could see them clearly.
As long as his sister was standing at the entrance of Beverly Hills, he would stand with her.
Bella was so despaired that she knelt and humbly begged for an audience with the old man, with her sincere brother following her to apologize.
Sebastian knelt along with her, admitted all his mistakes, and promised to repent.
Even so, the old man still refused to meet them and would not let them step into Beverly Hills.
Suddenly, the gate of Beverly Hills opened.
Seeing Michael Marshall’s car, Bella forgot about her numb legs and gave chase.
Michael acted as if he didn’t see Bella. His chauffeur drove off, accelerating away. All Bella could do was watch helplessly as her husband’s car disappeared from her line of sight.
Bella cried out heartbreakingly, “Husband…how could you not even glance at me?”
“Husband, if you ignore us, what will Matthew and I do? Husband, please come back!”
Bella was so heartbroken that tears overflowed from her eyes and slowly ran down her cheeks.
Once Michael’s car had driven away, the door of Beverly Hills was closed ruthlessly. Bella was infuriated, stamping her foot in frustration and completely humiliated.
Sebastian saw the ruthlessness of the Marshall Family and was filled with hatred; he felt sorrow for his sister as well.
Sebastian stopped kneeling and helped his sister up, consoling, “Let’s go back first; what’s done is done. We can’t change the facts.”
Bella leaned against her brother’s shoulder as if she had lost her soul, with an empty look in her eyes.
With her brother’s support, Bella got in the car. Her gaze remained vacant, and tears flowed down her cheeks.
Only after they had left Beverly Hills, did Bella finally speak in a low voice.
“I really can’t accept this! I’ve devoted my life to serving the old man and putting the Marshall Family first, yet they discarded me like trash, it’s too cruel!
Others might think I’m living a luxurious life, but in reality, I’m just a figurehead. None of the Marshall Family’s jewels belongs to me; I only have the right to wear them. I even signed a prenuptial agreement; I have no right to property division. If we divorce, I’ll be left with nothing.
The only valuable thing I have is the title of Mrs. Marshall. I can only use Michael’s supplementary card; apart from investing and saving my own money, I have nothing from the Marshall Family.
I’m worse off than that bitch Olivia Jenkins. At least she got 2 billion from Daniel. If Matthew doesn’t fight for it, how will we mother and son survive? Do we have to continue being at the mercy of others?
Daniel already owns 18% of the Marshall Corporation’s shares, on par with Michael. My Matthew only holds less than 1% of the shares. They’re clearly bullying us mother and son…”
Bella wept inconsolably, leaning against her brother.
Convulsions racked Bella’s body. She truly despised the heartless Marshall Family!
Sebastian also felt extremely upset and didn’t even know how to comfort his sister. He hugged his sister, allowing her to vent her emotions. More and more regret filled Sebastian’s heart.
Bella said fiercely, “I can’t let Olivia Jenkins have Daniel’s child. In the old lady’s will, her shares were left to Daniel’s child!”
