Chapter 446
The entire venue fell silent for a moment, followed by explosive gasps.
‘Alexa… Bella is Alexa?” Justin experienced a brief buzz in his head before going
completely blank for several seconds. It was as if even his soul had left his body, leaving
him feeling weak from head to toe.
‘Bella is Alexa!’ Justin thought to himself. ‘She is the illustrious jewelry designer who is
highly regarded. So she had spent the entire time watching me embarrass myself. She
must have been overjoyed, secretly laughing at my efforts to meet Alexa, only to be
rejected.’
Justin was completely taken aback. His lips trembled, and his breath was heavy. His eyes
turned an unimaginably intense shade of red. He could not decide whether he was more
angry or shocked.
“Bella, you deceived me again. You actually deceived me again!”
She clearly had an unparalleled talent, but she had kept it hidden from
him for the entire three years of their marriage. She played the role of a housewife who
toiled at home without displaying any of her talent
or brilliance.
“Why would she degrade herself in this manner? Was she making fun of my ignorance in
some twisted way?’ Justin clenched his teeth, and the pressure caused his molars to ache.
His heart throbbed faintly,
prompting him to raise a hand instinctively to cover the area around
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthis heart. Is it amusing to toy with me like this, Bella? How did you expect me to fall in
love with you when you have never been honest
with me?”
“Alexa?! The heiress of KS Group is Alexa?! This is truly sensational news!”
“Could it be a lie?”
“Diamond necklaces can be faked, but can her identity be faked?
Besides, Sliva is here to confirm her identity!”
Even those who normally maintain dignified facades could care less about appearing
sophisticated at this time. Everyone took out their phones and took pictures of Bella like
paparazzi!
Given that Alexa was looking this hot and stunning, it would be a shame not to take a few
pictures to show off later. Otherwise, tonight would be a complete waste!
Christopher calmly observed the crowd that had gathered around. Bella. She was like the
moon, surrounded by many stars. He casually adjusted his glasses, and his smiling eyes
revealed a hint of
indulgence and playfulness.
No other woman could excite him as much as Bella. She was the only one who made him
realize that the existence of love was not as dull
and silly as he had previously assumed.
The scene became somewhat chaotic. In their eagerness to get
closer to the spectacle, everyone crammed closer and closer to Bella.
Seeing the situation, Christopher was worried for Bella’s safety if it
continued. He stood up, intending to walk over and help her break
free.
A cold gust of wind swept past him out of nowhere. Christopher’s
eyes widened as he noticed Justin rushing over with quick strides,
pushing his way through the crowd. He clenched his fists in frustration. His gaze was
piercing, and he yearned to rip Justin apart.
Bella was taken aback when Justin suddenly assumed the role of her protector, standing in
front of her like a human shield. She couldn’t help but ask, “What are you doing?”
“There are too many people. I’m afraid you might be in danger,” Justin replied without
turning to face her.
Bella scoffed with disdain. “Steve is close behind. Not to mention that my hotel’s security
is excellent. We can easily handle this minor situation. There is no need for you to be the
hero here.”
“Bella, you deceived me again,” Justin said slowly.
Justin shifted his gaze, his dark eyes intense. “Do you not have anything to say to me
about your deception?” he asked in a trembling voice that only they could hear.
Bella laughed with a mocking look in her eyes. “Does it hurt to be deceived by me? Don’t
worry, you’ll slowly get used to it.”
Justin took a deep breath and let out a soft cough. She infuriated him.
The uproar sparked by Alexa did not die down until Steven dispatched
a squad of bodyguards to restore order.
“OMG, you are Alexa… How is this even possible?” Ada Wang walked
toward Bella, her mouth covered and her words incoherent. Tears
streamed down her excited face.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I did not conceal my identity on purpose. It is just that these titles do not mean much to
me. I simply enjoy making jewelry and do not want
to be in the spotlight or draw too much attention.” Bella maintained
her usual gentle demeanor with Ada Wang. “I know you are a big fan, and I am honored to
have your and everyone else’s affection.”
Such grace, such charm!
“I’m sorry, Ms. Thompson. No, Ms. Alexa. Please forgive my rudeness. earlier.”
Ada Wang was regretful. She wished she could go back in time and change her cold words
and dismissive attitude toward Bella! It is like missing the forest for the trees!
“I am both Alexa and the general manager of KS World Hotel. My dual identity cannot
make up for the breach of hotel confidentiality. So, I have never held it against you, and
there is no need for you to blame yourself.”
At that moment, Bella was about to reveal Shannon and Bethany’s
true colors.
“God’s Tears’ is one of Alexa’s relatively obscure private works and has rarely been
publicly exhibited. Besides Alexa, no one in the world. possesses it.” Sliva’s sharp gaze
was fixed on Bethany. “So, without a doubt, the one Ms. Salvador gave to Ms. Ada is a
counterfeit.”
Sliva added, “Daring to replicate works by Alexa is a serious
infringement on Alexa’s reputation and creative rights. Alexa ensures
that each of her pieces is insured for a high value. You are not legally
inept, Ms. Salvador. You should be well aware of the potential
consequences and penalties, right?”
