Chapter 1532
No.1
“Look over here! I represent Tina Jewelry! Would you consider being our brand ambassador?”
“I don’t want to bother you, but could you please sign this? It’ll only take a second!”
A crowd of eager admirers swarmed around her, thrusting business cards and autograph books into her hands. Among them were celebrities, journalists, jewelry executives, singers, and even company owners—each one a recognizable name.
Were these high-profile individuals truly her fans? Had they canceled their appointments just to see her here?
Victoria’s face darkened with fury. Though she had many fans, Isabella’s supporters were influential figures. Even at the peak of her own career, Victoria had never attracted this level of elite attention. Important people usually sent assistants or subordinates in their place.
Victoria’s fans fell silent, recognizing famous faces in the crowd. They quickly pulled out their phones, scrambling to capture the moment.
How lucky to witness so many luminaries in one day!
The scene had flipped entirely. Now Isabella was the one surrounded, while Victoria stood ignored.
‘Did Maxwell arrange all this?’ Isabella wondered, scanning the crowd with a hint of suspicion.
No.2
She responded calmly. “Please reach out to my manager for any professional inquiries. As for autographs…”
She didn’t have a pen. But rejecting these enthusiastic admirers felt rude.
An idea struck her. She accepted the cards, then pulled a lipstick from her bag.
Gasps rippled through the crowd.
“That’s a Guerlain Golden Diamond Lipstick! It costs three hundred and fifty thousand dollars!”
“My god—I heard the case is made of 18-karat gold weighing a hundred and ten grams! Hand-set with a hundred ninety-nine diamonds!”
“She’s signing with a lipstick that expensive? She really is the Diamond Boss!”
“Sign my shirt, Isabella! Please!”
Even some of Victoria’s fans broke away, rushing toward Isabella, begging for a signature worth more than most cars.
No.3
Isabella Montgomery accepted every request without hesitation.
She took the cards with one hand while signing with the other.
Her movements were swift and confident.
That vibrant crimson signature glowed with undeniable brilliance, much like the woman herself.
Victoria Kensington dug her nails deep into her palms.
She never imagined Isabella would steal her spotlight like this.
Her own fans had abandoned her for this upstart.
The humiliation burned.
She had been the center of attention just moments ago.
No.4
What went wrong?
She forced a sweet, concerned smile and approached. "Isabella, we should go. The Gucci team is waiting for us."
"Please be quiet!" An impatient fan waiting for a signature shot her an annoyed glare for interrupting.
Who cared if she was a top supermodel? They preferred Isabella!
The crowd, though initially arranged by Nathaniel, had become genuine admirers.
These were people who usually avoided public scenes.
But since they were here, they wouldn't miss a chance for her autograph.
Victoria's face tightened into a stiff mask.
How dare these minor celebrities and singers speak to her like that?
No.5
Veronica saw the storm brewing and quickly grabbed Victoria's arm. "Victoria, let's head up first. Remember the plan."
The reminder of her scheme cooled Victoria's rage.
A sinister glint flashed in her eyes.
The real victory would come during the shoot.
She would crush Isabella so completely she'd never work in modeling again.
As Victoria walked inside, Isabella watched her retreating figure and smirked inwardly.
You think you can compete with me? How pathetic.
Isabella didn't need to lift a finger to win.
Help always arrived when she needed it.
No.6
Across the street, in a top-floor office, Nathaniel Blackwood and Oliver watched the scene.
Oliver bounced with excitement. "Mommy is amazing! Her fans are so dedicated! Daddy, you must reward them!"
Nathaniel nodded and turned to his assistant. "Dominic, double their payment."
It was money well spent, especially for the one who told Victoria off.
Dominic frowned, perplexed.
This was getting out of hand.
Not only was the young master obsessed, but the chairman was also throwing millions at this woman.
Since when did wife hunting involve such extravagant spending?
Beauty was truly a dangerous thing.
No.7
Sebastian Blackwood couldn't hold his tongue. "Brother, instead of wasting money on this, why not just buy her a gift?"
"Buy her a gift? What could she possibly lack?" Nathaniel countered.
Sebastian was speechless.
After Isabella's identity was revealed yesterday, their deep background check showed she owned countless luxury cars, mansions, and brands.
Some parts of her profile remained mysteriously inaccessible.
"It seems my future sister-in-law won't be an easy catch. Brother, prepare yourself for potential failure."
Nathaniel just smirked. "Failure isn't a word in my vocabulary."
He reached for Oliver. "Momo, come here."
"Yay!" Oliver leaped into his arms.
