The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge



Chapter 2418

Inside the room, Justin lay tied to the bed, bound tightly with ropes. A towel was stuffed in his mouth as his entire body convulsed violently, wracked by the excruciating torment of drug withdrawal. It felt like thousands of ants gnawed relentlessly at his flesh and bones.

He would no longer take the drugs.noveldrama

There were countless times when he felt an overwhelming urge to give in, to take just one dose and end it all. His iron will was reaching its breaking point.

But in the end, he endured. Justin curled up tightly, his crimson eyes shut firmly.

Justin remembered when he was young, his mother had told him time and again to be a person of integrity and dignity. He could not disappoint his mother or those who believed in him. He absolutely could not fall into depravity!

Outside the door, Ian checked his watch. Seeing that the time was right, he unlocked the door and entered, locking it again behind him.

When he turned around, he was startled to see Justin standing stiffly in the living room. His handsome face was ashen, damp, and disheveled black hair clung to his forehead. He exuded a feeling of defeat and frailty.

"Mr. Salvador, how did you untie the ropes?" Ian's chest ached as he asked in a hoarse voice.

"You didn't tie them tight enough. Next time, make them tighter." Justin collapsed weakly onto the sofa. Leaning back, he looked up to the ceiling. His throat moved painfully as he swallowed.

He had endured this time. But what about the next endless torment after that? How could he continue to endure this?

Suddenly, his phone rang.

'Who could it be at this hour?' Justin leaned forward with great effort, picked up the phone from the coffee table, and saw the name "Bella" flashing on the screen.

His chest rose and fell heavily. Without delay, he answered, his voice low and steady. "It's late, Ms. Thompson. What's the matter?"

"Mr. Salvador, I'm sorry for disturbing your rest." Bella's trembling voice began with an apology.

Justin pursed his lips together. "It's fine. Speak."

"Yvonne may be in danger. My brothers are either unreachable or out of the country... I don't know what to do..."

"Where are you? I'll come to you." Before she could finish, Justin shot up from the couch, though he swayed violently.

"Mr. Salvador!" Ian reacted quickly and rushed to support him.

Justin felt dizzy, but his voice remained calm and reassuring as he spoke to Bella.

"Don't worry. I'll come to you now. We'll talk in person."

After ending the call, he instructed Ian to prepare the car.

"Mr. Salvador, you're incredibly weak right now. Every time you have an episode, you need at least a full day and night of rest to recover. Can you really do this?" Ian was frantic, seeing Justin struggle to even stand.

"My condition doesn't matter." Justin closed his eyes briefly. When he opened them again, his gaze was resolute. "But right now, I must reach Bella as quickly as possible. I owe her that much."

There was one thing he kept hidden, growing quietly in his heart.

Even if he owed her nothing, he would still rush to her side without hesitation to protect her, no matter the cost.
