The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge
Chapter 1519

The sky was gray today, with a drizzle falling from the first light of dawn.

However, it was perfect weather to visit the deceased at the graveyard.

Bella and Justin visited Mary again. They even went so far as to tidy up the gravestone and add flowers.

Though Mary was buried six feet underground, the couple's attentiveness and longing would accompany her to her grave. "Bella and I avenged you, Mom. Shannon's been handed the death penalty. You can finally rest in peace after 20 years." Justin took Bella's hand and held it tightly. "Justice has been served. Rest easy."

The couple put their heads down in front of the gravestone.

Footsteps drew close.

"It's Grandpa Nigel!" Bella cocked her head and beamed.

Justin hid his emotions behind his eyes.

Several feet away, Matt pushed Nigel, who was in a wheelchair.

A bouquet of white lilies rested on Nigel's lap. They were Mary's favorite. Before her passing, Mary always made sure Tideview Manor was decorated with fresh lilies.

Even Nigel, Mary's father-in-law, was aware of her preference. Yet Gregory, the husband, had no idea.

Oh, the irony.

"I'll help you, sir."

Matt was about to help Nigel up when the old man propped his arms on the armrest and rose to his feet.

Justin and Bella were taken aback. They were relieved as Nigel stood firmly on his feet.

Nigel solemnly approached the couple with a bouquet in hand. He looked at Justin kindly. "I hope you don't mind if I visit your mother."

Justin shook his head, and his breath hitched.

Bella pursed her lips as tears filled her eyes.

Nigel's health had been on the decline in recent years. He would need a wheelchair for important events, but to pay Justin's mother respect, he ditched the wheelchair and stood before the gravestone. With a sigh, Nigel presented the flowers and hung his head low. "My family had let you down, Mary. I need to apologize for that. I know the apology means nothing now that you're gone.

"Don't worry. So long as I'm alive, I will take good care of Justin. I won't let harm and hurt come in the way of your only son and my favorite grandson."

Justin looked at Nigel in tears.

He did not feel Nigel owed him anything, and the hardship he endured was not a major issue for him.

On the contrary, if Nigel had not taken Justin under his wing, he would have lost his life to Shannon a long time ago.

"I heard that Shannon appealed to the court?" Nigel asked with a frown.

"Yes, Grandpa Nigel, but she's just grasping at straws," Bella replied while taking Justin's arm.

"It's good that she was found guilty."

Nigel grimaced at the thought of Shannon's crimes. "I even thought that I would make her pay and suffer more than Charles if the law didn't come through. Don't keep your problems to yourselves. Just let me know. I'll sort things out for you. I'm not retired completely. I still hold sway in the company."

"Thank you, Grandpa."

Justin curled his lips with gratitude. "You have done enough for me. I don't want you to be worried about me."

Nigel said with intrigue, "It's never enough, silly child. It's far from enough."

"Dad."

Gregory's unwelcome presence intruded on the otherwise beautiful moment.

Bella turned to Justin with concern.

Justin pulled a sour look, his teeth gnashing. "Shameless!"

"Don't turn things ugly in front of Grandpa Nigel, Justin," Bella murmured, squeezing his cold hand.

Justin took a deep breath and fought back his rage.

"What are you doing here?" Nigel looked at Gregory peevishly.

Gregory pressed his lips together and replied in a hoarse voice, "I miss Mary, Dad. I came to see her."

"You didn't talk about her for the past twenty-odd years. Don't pretend like you care now."

Nigel sneered at the callous man. "You're not just a disgrace to Mary, but to me too!"
