Chapter 309
A lot of things happened lately, but today, the dust finally settled.
Bella triggered a butterfly effect by using Memphis to completely overturn the Gold
Corporation.
Although Salvador Corporation was affected, Justin did not marry Rosalind yet, so many
considered him a victim in this relationship. He had just become a laughingstock.
In the general manager’s office, Bella played two rounds of video games while Steven
peeled grapes for her and reported on several important events.
“Mr. Ralph said that Jean is about to go for her first trial. So far, no competent lawyer is
willing to defend her because the evidence is solid. No one wants to lose a case that
cannot be overturned. It’s quite certain that she’ll be sentenced to 20 years in prison.”
Steven leaned down considerately and fed a juicy, peeled grape to Bella.
Bella swallowed it in one gulp, narrowed her cat eyes, and licked her red upper lip. “Mmm!
It’s so sweet!”
Steven could not help but smile. He thought that she was sweet.

to convey them to me? Sigh…” Bella sighed helplessly, feeling a little frustrated.
Her seventh brother, Ralph, was similar to her youngest sister, Amelia. They were both
considerate and burdened by their identities.
Ralph was only three years older than Bella. He has cared for her as much as her four
brothers
have since Bella was a child.
“Mr. Ralph has an inferiority complex. He couldn’t blatantly pamper you.” Steven was a
bystander, so he could clearly see the relationship between the Thompsons.
“Ralph is overthinking it.”
Bella shook her head. “To me, he’s the same as Asher, Axel, Drew, and Declan. I love them
and
admire them the same.”
“By the way, Memphis is now in lockup, so Mr. Axel and Mr. Ralph arrested several gang
members from the casinos and loan shark companies and locked them up with that
scumbag.”
Steven gritted his teeth and looked cold. “Memphis can pay back what he owes them.”
Bella smiled and said, “They’re so thoughtful. I’ll cook a feast for them tomorrow as
thanks!”
“Also, I heard that the debt owed by the Gold family is almost paid off.”
Bella’s finger stopped mid-air as she frowned slightly. “Did Justin help pay it back? Hah!
How kind and generous of him!
“It’s not Justin. It’s Shannon.’
Bella pursed her lips and said nothing.
“That’s strange. Rosalind’s reputation went down the drain, so she’s of no use to Shannon
anymore. Shannon is not a kind person, so why would she clean up the mess for the Gold
family?” Steven asked, expressing his doubts.
“Rosalind may not be of use anymore, but she probably has something on Shannon.”
Bella smirked. “They’ve been in this act for so many years, so how could Rosalind be
clueless about Shannon’s dark past? As you said, Shannon is not a philanthropist, so she

family fill this black hole.”
“Hmph! She deserves it!”
Steven peeled another grape and put it to Bella’s lips. “I heard that Rosalind paid the
hospital bills and left her father alone to go abroad to avoid the limelight. I think she won’t
be coming back to Savrow anytime soon. Rosalind did not even care about her poor
daughter. I’ve done as you requested and sent her to an orphanage in Savrow that KS
Group has sponsored. The girl is living well in a new environment, so you can rest
assured.”
“What a pity.” Bella swallowed the grape.
“Pity?”
“It’s a pity that Rosalind and Justin didn’t get married. They are both selfish and cold-
blooded people, so they belong together.”
As soon as Bella quit the game, she found that a player named “Rose” had sent a friend
request. The player was at quite a high level in the game.
Bella did not think much about it. After all, as the number one slayer in the game,
“Lucifer”, she had many friend requests every day. Since she liked roses, she added
“Rose” as a friend.
