Bella’s heart sank as the sound of the jade bracelet shattering echoed in the bathroom.
The delicate pieces scattered on the floor, and her mind raced with the pain of the broken gift.
That bracelet, a token of Nigel’s affection, meant more to her than anyone could understand.
The fact that Rosalind had destroyed it out of pure spite only added fuel to the fire that was already burning inside Bella.
Her wrist throbbed where Rosalind had pulled her, but the emotional pain was far greater than any physical discomfort.
The bracelet was irreplaceable—its loss felt like a personal blow, a reminder of how cruel and vindictive people could be when their pride was hurt.
Bella’s almond-shaped eyes, sharp with anger, flashed as she glared at Rosalind.
“You think you’ve won, don’t you?” Bella’s voice was low, controlled but seething with fury.
She wasn’t going to let Rosalind’s petty actions affect her more than they already had.
Bella had learned to hold her composure in the face of adversity.
But this was the breaking point.
Rosalind, still clutching the broken bracelet in her hand, stood there smirking, her eyes filled with satisfaction.
She had taken something from Bella, something that had cost her nothing but had immense value to Bella.
It was a small victory in her eyes, but a cruel one nonetheless.
“You really think you can hold onto everything, don’t you, Anna? You’re just a parasite in Justin’s life.
You’ll never have him.
Not after everything you’ve done,” Rosalind hissed, her grip tightening around the pieces of the bracelet.
Bella took a deep breath, steadying herself.
“You’re wrong.
I don’t need Justin’s love, and I don’t need your petty games.
You can’t take what’s already lost.
And this?” She gestured to the broken bracelet, “It’s just a thing.
It doesn’t change anything.
”
Rosalind’s eyes flared with rage, but Bella didn’t care anymore.
She had already decided that she wouldn’t let anyone—especially someone as vile as Rosalind—dictate her emotions.
Bella stepped past her, leaving the broken pieces of the bracelet behind.
“I’m done here,” she said coldly, her voice final.
Without looking back, she walked out of the bathroom, leaving Rosalind fuming in her wake.
