The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson) novel Chapter 1689

“Alright then. I was going to call them, too.”

Drew’s expression suddenly darkened. “I have something important to discuss with you all tonight.”

…

Soon, Axel and Ralph joined the table.

The three Thompson brothers, along with the couple, gathered around the dining table, turning the kitchen into an impromptu conference room.

“Drew, we’re here now. Stop keeping us in suspense and show us what you’ve got,” Axel urged, munching on a drumstick.

Drew retorted, “Ax, why so anxious?”

Axel flung a chicken bone at him, which Drew easily dodged before tossing a file onto the table.

The four of them leaned in simultaneously. “What’s this?”

“Didn’t you all say you wanted to avenge Ash?”

Drew’s eyes turned icy as he tapped the table with his finger. “We have enough evidence inside this folder to bring James down.”

At the mention of evidence, Axel, the prosecutor, and Ralph, the police officer, perked up.

Bella quickly grabbed the file, eagerly spilling its contents onto the table.

The four of them each took a part of the document and read through it. As they read the documents, their expressions grew increasingly shocked and furious.

Justin turned and met Bella’s bright eyes. “Although these pieces of evidence are explosive news, they’re not detailed or comprehensive enough. They can certainly intimidate him. But to convict him, we need a more thorough investigation and more witnesses willing to come forward. As a prosecutor, I think Axel should be more professional in this field than I am.”

Ralph nudged Axel with his elbow. “Hey, Ax. They’re talking about you.”

“Huh? Oh, I see.”

Still getting used to the prosecutor title, Axel was momentarily slow to respond. “But even so, these pieces of evidence are enough for us to call James in for questioning and tea.”

Bella’s eyes flashed with fury. “Questioning? That animal deserves to drink urine, not tea!”

Unusually playful, Justin remarked, “Well, if he’s to drink urine, we’ll need to call Master Jenkins in.”

The mention of their bold and skilled friend from the gang lightened the mood in the kitchen slightly.
