Chapter 102
“Of course,” Bella said while rummaging through her bag.
When Stella saw the bag, her breathing quickened.
She secretly peered at Keegan. He was slowly sipping the wine and did not seem to notice the bag.
‘I suppose he doesn’t even spare a glance at the things other people gifted him, so how would he know
what the bag looks like? After all, he doesn’t even notice that I change my clothes three times a day back
home,‘ she thought.
At that thought, Stella felt a little reassured.
Bella rummaged through her bag for a while and took out only a pen. She lifted her head a little and
apologetically said, “Sorry, I forgot to bring a paper. Why don’t we do this another day? Or, I could get Mr.
Snyder to pass you my autograph on my behalf after this?”
Marshall smiled, “If it’s possible, could you sign it on my hand?”
Stella’s eyes twitched.
‘Don’t tell me Marshall is really Bella’s fan,‘ she thought.
However, Vermont was blunter, “I didn’t know you were interested in all this, Marshall.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMarshall smiled coolly.
“It’s a rare opportunity to meet Ms. Young,” he said as he reached out and revealed half of his lower arm.
His words instantly gratified Bella’s sense of vanity. She stopped hesitating and grabbed the pen. Then,
she signed her autograph on Marshall’s wrist.
Marshall kept staring at the hand Bella used to write.
Marshall’s eyes were different from Keegan’s upturned eyes. He had amorous eyes, and it looked like he
was gazing lovingly at his lover even when he was looking at trash.
The beautiful scene did not last long. Before Bella finished signing her autograph, someone ripped her
hand away and slapped her.
“You bitch. Who do you think you are seducing?”
Bella was dumbfounded after getting slapped. Her vision darkened for a second before she saw the
person who slapped her. It was Keegan’s sister, Aurora.
Bella lost her footing and fell onto the table next to her. Then, the pyramid of wine glasses instantly
toppled over.
“CRASH!”
The wine glasses shattered all over the floor.
Bella fell onto the floor with wine and glass shards all over the hem of her dress.
The banquet was cut short by the loud crash. Everyone turned to look in their direction.
Aurora was furious, so she still had not realized that she had gotten in trouble.
She pointed at Bella’s nose and shouted, “You stupid actress. You’re seducing everyone. You can’t get
popular without men, huh?”
She wanted to hit Bella again, but Marshall quickly stopped her.
“What are you saying? Ms. Young was just giving me her autograph.”
“Her chest was practically on your arm. She was clearly seducing you! I’ve seen plenty of tricks from
these actresses. Let go of me, Marshall! I’m going to teach her a lesson today!”
‘No one can stop Aurora when she flips out; I’ve gone through it firsthand. It seems like Bella’s going to
suffer today,‘ Stella thought.
The very next moment, Aurora was slapped.
Stella was startled. She slowly turned to look at Keegan.
Keegan had a stiff expression, and his usually conniving gaze toward Aurora was now icy.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAurora looked shocked. “Keegan… You slapped me because of this bitch?”
“Shut up!” Keegan looked furious.
He turned to Vermont and said, “Take her home.”
Then, Keegan bent over and carried Bella out of the venue.
Stella stared at his worried silhouette. Suddenly, she lowered her gaze and chuckled.
‘I was looking at a joke when I’m the biggest joke myself,‘ she thought.
Vermont quickly got someone to take Aurora away. Soon after, the scene was cleaned up.
The evening continued as if nothing had ever happened.
Stella was the only one drowning in the crowd’s gossip and chatter.
‘My husband left me behind with another woman in his arms. This is what happens when we come from
families with unequal statuses. I used to think that the saying was a load of bull, but I think it makes
sense now,‘ she thought.
She took the wine glass on the table and drank it with a stoic expression.
It burned her throat, but she did not feel the pain. After downing three glasses, she felt a fire in her
stomach.
Just as she was about to grab her fourth glass, an outstretched hand gently held her wrist.
