Chapter 2016

Isabella let them go on for a while before revealing, “I wasn’t the one who bought it. A friend of mine
gifted it to me.”

“How very generous! Who is this friend?”

“That’s more than generous. That’s a whole statement by itself!”

“Isabella, are you sure this friend of yours is just a friend?”

They all cast playful looks at her while speculating about the identity of this friend.

Isabella smiled, satisfied with the attention she was drawing from them. She said nonchalantly, “We're
just regular friends right now. It’s not what you girls are thinking.”

Her friends exchanged looks with one another, concealing a deep glow of envy and faint hatred
underneath their eyes.

What kind of common friend would gift such an expensive gift?

They were sure that Isabella had managed to land a wealthy benefactor, and it did seem like she was
very fond of this secret benefactor of hers.

“Isabella, I'm so jealous.”

“Me too, I hope I can find someone as benevolent as this friend of yours one day.”

“Oh, don't say that. I’m sure you’ll find someone for you one day,” she said with a self-indulgent air.



In this circle, there was nothing more satisfying than knowing that you had things better than others and
that you were the subject of their envy.

That was when she spotted Isabel from the corner of her eye.

The first thing she spotted was Isabel’s curly hair that fluttered like wings with every step she took She
wore a bright red dress that strapped itself nicely around her figure. Its design was immaculate and
perfectly complimented her build while highlighting her fair and beautiful skin. Coupled with her blessed
features, she looked like a princess who had stepped out of a fairy tale, thus it was impossible to not
notice someone radiating such a fine aura around her.

She immediately drew the attention of countless photographers from countless media outlets, and
lights flashed all around her as pictures were taken left and right. Isabella's eyes darkened instantly.
Even the jewel on the necklace she wore around her neck seemed to dim for an instant.

When Isabel passed her, she still made a point of greeting her with a polite, friendly smile. She acted
as if they were close friends.

This was not surprising considering how she had always made a point of being friendly with Isabel in
public. It was to a point where some media outlets speculated that the two were close friends behind
the cameras and flashing lights.

Now that they had media attention on them, Isabella made sure to keep up the charade.

In the past, Isabel may have played along, but circumstances had changed now since Isabella
breached the unspoken contract of neutrality with her actions. The last thing she wanted was to keep
up appearances with Isabella.

She walked right past Isabella without acknowledging her at all.



The atmosphere suddenly grew awkward.

The media reporters and photographers were just as flabbergasted by what they were seeing.

The few emerging actors who were with Isabella were floored by this as well.

Everyone was aware of what happened between Isabel and Isabella a few days ago and that things
might be tense between them. Still, it was jaw-dropping to see that Isabel would not even bother to
greet Isabella for the cameras.

How very bold!

The smile on Isabella's face was wiped away instantly, transforming into an ugly scowl.

The photographers were experts and immediately snapped a picture of her reaction. They were
ecstatic to have captured her reaction which would surely garner plenty of traffic to their sites.

This was all the fuel the netizens needed to kick off yet another storm of debate. The reporters were
already composing their next viral headlines.

The gala was primarily an award show dedicated to some of the most successful TV shows and actors
of the recent period.

Although the awards themselves were not prestigious in terms of overall career development, it was
still going to provide a respectable boost to the reputation of whoever took home the awards.

The venue was filled with allocated seats with the names of the celebrities and actors written on them.

When Isabel entered, the ushers escorted her to her seat in the front row.



The center section of the front row was reserved for some of the most prestigious and senior members
of the entertainment industry. Isabel was assigned to a seat slightly left of the center.
