The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge
Chapter 2292

Chapter 2292

In an instant, Bella burst into tears, each tear brimming with joy and warmth, streaming down her checks uncontrollably.

She knew it... She had always known!

The moment she laid eyes on Jace, she knew he was Hugh!

Even if Jace was cold and emotionless and kept her at arm's length, that familiar, close bond could never be mistaken

"Young Madam... Why are you crying?" Wilma quickly pulled out a handkerchief and hurriedly tried to wipe away her tears.

Bella forced herself to calm down, her voice low and steady. *Ralph, who else have you told about this?"

Ralph, experienced after years of handling cases, was composed. "This is no small matter. I only told you. I haven't informed Dad or my mom yet."

"You've done well. For now, this must remain between us. We absolutely can't tell Dad or Aunt Mila.* Bella's eyes gleamed with concern, her heart constricting anxiously. "I'm worried our enemy will replace out, and even more worried the person controlling Hugh will hurt him if his identity is revealed!"

Ralph's tone grew even more serious. "Bella, don't worry. I've thought of that too. When I go back, I'll keep it from Mom for now and try to stabilize her emotions. Otherwise, with her temperament, she'll turn the world upside down searching for Hugh. Who knows what kind of chaos that might cause!"

He paused, then asked in confusion and concern, "Since Hugh didn't die... Who saved him after he fell into the sea? What did he go through? And why has he changed so much?!"

"Hugh has likely lost all his memories. He doesn't remember us at all." Bella's mind flashed back to the gruesome scar on his body, and her heart twisted in sharp pain. "I've seen the injuries on him. If it weren't for someone saving and treating him, he never would've survived on his own. Someone must have rescued him, healed him, and then..."

"And then turned him into this cold, heartless person? When I faced him in combat, it was like fighting a killing machine!" Ralph's voice trembled with restrained grief. "Who on earth did this to him?!

Steven and Wilma looked at Bella with deep concern.

Bella leaned back, feeling weary, and closed her eyes, trying to clear her mind.

Whenever Hugh appeared, it was always in the midst of Christopher's schemes. But now that Christopher has passed, Hugh continues to show up and stand in her way.

This can only mean one thing: the person who had been controlling Christopher was also controlling Hugh. It was that mysterious "Boss" who had turned him into this!

"Could it be the drugs?" Bella murmured, slowly opening her eyes while lost in thought.

Ralph's voice immediately sharpened. "Bella, what are you saying? What drugs?"

"Justin became this emotionless machine after taking the drugs given to him by that 'Boss' under

Christopher's orders. It seems somewhat similar to Hugh's condition."

"Are you saying that... Hugh might have taken the same drugs, which turned him into this?" Ralph asked urgently. "What exactly are those drugs?"

"Arnold once mentioned the drugs irreversibly damage the brain's neural pathways."

Ralph sounded distraught. "Even if we do replace Hugh, what can we do? He's already been brainwashed! Would he even come back home with us?"

'Home...' Bella's heart ached as she took a deep breath.

"Ralph, don't worry. No matter what it takes, I will wake Hugh up. I will bring him home!"
