Chapter 64
Bella did not wear a cumbersome gown. Instead, she chose to wear a black suit that she
designed herself. She had a brooch made of yellow diamonds pinned to her chest, made
by the top jewelry designer, Alexa.
She confidently strode to her seat, looking clean-cut and outstanding among the elite
ladies.
The elite ladies were merely pampered princesses, but Bella was a domineering queen.
When Rosalind saw that the thorn in her side had become the center of attention, she was
fuming.
In addition, the other elite ladies around Rosalind looked at Bella in amazement and
started to whisper about her.
“OMG! Who is she? She’s so elegant!”
“She’s really young. Otherwise, I would’ve thought that she’s the big boss of some
conglomerate. Her confidence is unbeatable!”
“Have you seen her brooch? That’s the most exclusive collection from Alexa, ‘The Twilight
God’! Three years ago, someone offered $100 million to get it. Alexa even scoffed at that
number!”
“The Twilight God?!”
Anyone in the jewelry industry knows about the famous designer, Alexa. Her creation,
“The Twilight God” also caused a sensation when it was exhibited three years ago!

Just now, Rosalind was so angry that she did not notice what Bella was wearing. Now that
she took a closer look, she was so jealous that her teeth chattered.
“Hah! Anna is really good at taking advantage of Mr. Thompson.”
Jean was jealous. At the same time, she admired Anna and dissed her daughter. “I gave
you the best of everything and trained you so that you’d marry well, but in the end, you
can’t even compare to a country girl! If your aunt hadn’t given you the opportunity to get
close to Justin, how could you have captured Justin’s heart with your mediocre skills?”
“Mom! I’ve already won. Why are you still saying such demoralizing things to me?!”
Rosalind clenched her fists tightly. Her eyes were red. “So what if Anna hooks up with
Asher Thompson? The Salvador family is no worse than the Thompson family! What’s
more, Anna is a
divorced woman. Justin will never go back to her. He’s mine for the rest of my life!”
“Don’t be so smug if you didn’t get your marriage license with him.”
Jean was worried. “Justin is clearly colder toward you. Even I can tell. Moreover, Nigel still
refuses to accept you. He’s doing everything possible to delay Justin and Anna’s divorce.
That means there is still a possibility for them to get back together. If you think you can sit
back and relax now that Anna doesn’t live with Justin anymore, you’re an idiot!”
Rosalind knew that Justin was not as nice to her as before, but she did not get to see Justin
these days, so she could not seduce him.
Bella passed by the back row, emitting a faint fragrance as she walked past Shannon and
Bethany.
“Mom, where is that country bitch going to sit?” Bethany asked nervously.
Shannon could not keep a smile on her face. She thought that Anna was already lucky
enough to get a seat. She did not expect Anna to walk to the first row, where the bigshots
were gathered.
Justin watched as Bella walked to his side. His heart skipped a beat.
However, Bella did not even glance at him. He was like a stranger to her. She sat down
gracefully in Asher’s seat.
“Asher asked Ms. Brown to attend on his behalf?! I don’t even know about this!” Ryan was
shocked and confused.
Justin took a deep breath, frowned deeply, and glanced at the woman who was two meters
away from him.
Bella’s red lips curled up into a faint smile. Her face was bright and gorgeous. She looked
so aloof and unattainable.
Bella did not bother to look at Justin, treating him like he was invisible.
“Fuck! It turns out that she has ‘The Twilight God’ this whole time!”
Ryan slapped his thigh. “I tried every means to get ‘The Twilight God’ as my mother’s
birthday gift three years ago. I even offered $100 million for it and begged Alexa to sell
me the brooch. But Alexa didn’t even care. I can’t believe Anna has this brooch! Wow…
Asher must really love her to put so much effort into her! He has my respect!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJustin’s heart trembled when he heard this.
He understood the feeling of putting in the effort to get a rare piece of jewelry for the
woman he loved.
Justin took half a month out of his busy schedule to rush to Feranco just so he could
prepare a birthday gift for Rosalind. After receiving many cold shoulders and being
rejected many times, Justin continued begging the designer to make “The Flaming Heart”.
He had never given Anna a gift throughout their three-year marriage.
Now that Anna was with Asher, that man doted on her and gave her such an expensive
gift.
Justin frowned and lowered his eyes. An inexplicable sense of bitterness filled his heart.
Seeing that Asher was so kind to his ex-wife, Justin just felt uncomfortable.
It seemed that Justin was indeed a useless ex-husband.
With all the guests present, the auction officially began.
As the representative of the Hoffman family, Ryan took to the stage to deliver the opening
speech. He was wearing a YSL haute couture suit that made him look even more
charming.
Bethany’s mouth gaped open as she fawned over him. She looked at her “husband” and
had already started to make a list of names for their future children in her mind.
With thunderous applause, Ryan walked off the stage. He grinned and flashed his pearly
whites. Then he raised his eyebrows and winked at Bella.
