The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge
Chapter 377

Chapter 377

Bella attended the fashion event today, not to show off or flaunt her status as the Thompson heiress but to accomplish two things.

First, she wanted to respond to the accusation of stealing the project from the Salvador Corporation in an interview with the media. She wanted to set things straight and put an end to the rumors.

Second, Bella wanted to present Ada with a gift, but in truth, she was keeping an eye on Bethany, making sure she had the upper hand in the situation. Bella refused to allow the scheming woman to ruin things for her.

Ada and a dashing middle-aged man in a tailored brown tux walked toward Bella.

"Ms. Thompson, let me introduce this man to you."

Ada introduced, "This is Vincent Anderson, the CEO of AX Jewelry. He's a good friend of mine.

"Vince, meet Ms. Bella Thompson, the general manager of KS World Hotel. She's a talented young lady."

Vincent, a native of Inalia, hailed from a royal lineage.

This was not his first visit to Savrow or the country of Orealm. He had fallen in love with this country a long time ago.

"Pleased to meet you, Mr. Anderson. Welcome to Savrow."

Bella smiled and extended her hand to Vincent.

"I'm pleased to meet you too, Ms. Thompson. It's an honor to have you at our show," Vincent responded, shaking her hand.

Ada glanced at Vincent and then Bella. Something appeared strange between them.

They should be meeting each other for the first time, but Vincent and Bella behaved like they had met before.

The press was stunned.

Vincent, born into privilege and with royal blood in his veins, held himself above all.

Nevertheless, he smiled warmly at Bella, like she was his daughter.

Bella was something else. Still, she was a beautiful young lady, so it made sense that she was popular among the men.

"What a coincidence, Ms. Thompson. Fancy seeing you here."

Holding onto her fancy train, Zoe strutted her way toward Bella.

Zoe looked like an innocent angel with her smiling eyes and cute dimples.

Bella narrowed her eyes, her icy gaze falling on Zoe.

She proceeded to give Zoe the cold shoulder. Bella said to Vincent and Ada with a smile, “ Let's chat over there."

The snub drove Zoe mad. Her eyes turned bloodshot, and her blood ran cold.

Her brother was Ryan Hoffman! The nerve of Bella to look down on her!

Vincent and Ada shared the same idea. Just as the trio were about to leave, Zoe said with a fake smile, "That's a beautiful set of jewelry you have there, Ms. Thompson. The red beryl goes well with the rose gold. I was drawn to your jewelry from afar."

All eyes were on Bella.

Bella curled her lips composedly. "Thanks for the compliment."

"But I doubt these jewelry pieces are the work of AX." Zoe pointed out with sinister eyes.

Everybody squinted for a good look, and Zoe was right.

While Bella's jewelry was exquisite, the experts could tell that it was not AX's design.

That was a major faux pas for the brand, and it happened right in front of AX's CEO, Vincent Anderson.

"Today is AX's show. It's inappropriate for you to wear the works of other designers, Ms. Thompson."

Zoe lifted her chin, revealing the taunt in her eyes. "For a woman of your status, with the support of Hatchbay's KS Group, it shouldn't be difficult to comply with and respect the brand. You are attending the brand's event. Maybe you're wearing your own design, Ms. Thompson? Are you trying to promote your brand through AX's show? Well, you're the businesswoman who beat Mr. Salvador, and you're all about the business. That's good marketing,"

It was just the right amount of sarcasm.

The press whispered among themselves and glanced at Bella.
