Chapter 251 She's an Ugly Duckling

Lia saw that Bella was struggling to choose, so she picked up a simple brooch and said, "I think this one looks

nice. He doesn't like anything too flashy, right?"

Bella liked that one too, but when she saw the price, she started to get anxious.

It was eight grand!

"Maybe we should look at sother options?" Bella suggested

Lia noticed the price as well and gasped tically. "Eight grand just for a brooch?"

The sales attendant's smile started to falter. "Well, we're a branded store, so the prices won't be cheap. If price is

a concern, you can check out other regular shops." Was she looking down on them?

Lia nudged Bella with her elbow and whispered, "You should've guessed the prices wouldn't be cheap when we

walked in. Besides, he probably wouldn't want it if t were cheap, right?"

Bella sighed deeply and said, "Alright, I'll take this one. Please wrap it up. Thank you."

When she swiped her card, Bella felt her wallet get significantly lighter. All the money she had worked so hard to

save was nearly gone.

Seeing Bella's glum expression, Lia couldn't help but gloat. "A woman who drives a luxury car is getting upset

over a few thousand dollars spent on a brooch? No one would believe that! He spent 1.5 million dollars on you,

so don't cry over such a small amount, okay?" Bella sighed again. "I already bought it, so there's no use crying

over it. By the way, how's your new stucoming along?"

Lia paused before replying, "It's going well. I've already paid Leonard for the rent, and | just got the keys to start

the renovation. | told him | wanted a long-term lease, and he agreed. | was initially hesitant about renting from

him, but he's actually been a huge help." Just then, Lia's sharp eyes caught sight of Dominic. He was with a

woman at a luxury watch counter. Lia's eyes widened as she exclaimed, "What's going on? Isn't that Dominic?"

Bella stopped in het tracks and followed Lia's gaze

It was indeed Dominic.

Even from such a distance, Belle couldn't mistake him. Among all the men she had met, Dominic was the only

one who had a unique air when dressed in a suit. He was serious and dignified, exuding effortless elegance.

But now, he was lowering his head and carefully putting on a pricey watch on the wrist of the woman beside him.

The scene was particularly jarring

Bella didn't recognize the woman. The woman was tall and had curves in all the right places, and her long black

hair was styled in perfect waves. She wore a chic beige trench jacket paired with sheer tights that highlighted

her legs and a pair of matching beige high heels. She looked stunning

There was no denying that the woman was beautiful. She had delicate yet elegant makeup on her face, giving

her a sophisticated air without being flashy.

At that moment, Bella felt a wave of insecurity wash over her. It felt like someone was squeezing her heart

tightly, and her breath was caught in her throat. She knew she wasn't good at dressing up and didn't have great

taste in clothes. She was an ugly duckding right

now

She didn't have the courage to approach them. She and Dominic were together now only because of Dominic's

say-so. If one day, he decided that things between them should end, it would only take one word from him. Bella

had no right to object-

Lia couldn't hold back her anger when she saw Bella frozen in place. "Belle, | never took you for a coward! He's

cheating on you, and you're just standing there? Just because you like him doesn't mean he can treat you like

this!

Bella pursed her lips. "It's fine. Let's go. No need to make a scene and ruin everyone's mood,"
