Chapter 2133


    Two days passed in the blink of an eye.


    The coordinator in charge of the jewelry exhibition approached Isabel.


    Amanda had justnded in Southboro from Westchester and promptly joined Isabel along with Ca.


    Isabel spoke with the coordinator for some time and acquainted herself with the procedure of the exhibition and the parts in


    which she would be involved. After that, she went to get her makeup done and put on the jewelry they provided for her. With


    everything ready, she attended the exhibition.


    It was only after she arrived at the exhibition that she realized the sheer scale of the exhibition. It was farrger than she had


    expected.


    The venue was enormous and d in brilliant lights, and all sorts of expensive pieces of jewelry were put on disy everywhere.


    The attendees were not limited to the Southboro locals; the wealthy from all over the world had alsoe to attend the premium


    event.


    She was equally shocked when she found out that she was the only celebrity modeling at the exhibition.


    It was a great surprise after what happened with rice since many businesses had made a point of steering away from her.


    Besides, even if the episode with rice did not happen, there were still many names in the industry who would easily deserve


    an invite over her, thus it was astounding that she could even be shortlisted at all.


    Why did they decide to invite her specifically?


    Perhaps the owner of thepany was a big fan of hers.


    As surprised as she was, she made sure to keep her wits about her. She straightened her back and strode into the venue with a


    confident smile. She exuded fine elegance befitting the precious jewelry strapped around her neck while her smile was subtle


    and filled with charm.


    She paced calmly across the venue, every step filled with gravity and grace.


    As soon as she approached the stage, she drew the attention of everyone in the venue.


    People began to murmur amongst themselves, "Who is she? What family is she from? Howe | haven''t seen her before?"


    Someone supplied, "I think she''s Isabel Ross, a celebrity actress."


    "She has such an impressive presence. | thought she was some richdy from some noble house."


    Isabel was unaware of these discussions. She was focused solely on representing the jewelry house as well as she could,


    considering they took a gamble on her and had given her such a big stage.


    She subtly raised her chin upward to show off the ne curtaining her corbone.


    She swung her arms gently as she walked, allowing the bracelets to dance with every step she took, the countless gemstones


    d on its surface glittering under the ceiling lights.


    It did not take long before the attendees began enquiring with the staff about the pieces she was wearing.


    When she was just about to step onto the stage, she noticed two familiar figures. She halted briefly, her eyes turned cold and


    menacing.


    Directly at the foot of the stage, less than three meters away from her was none other than rice. She was dressed with refined


    taste as usual, and next to her was Isabe who was d in all sorts of expensive jewelry and diamonds. Both of them were


    seated on a high chair, and they looked at her with tant hostility and concealed shock.


    They must not be expecting Isabel, of all people, to model for the jewelry house.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Isabel threw them an indifferent look and promptly resumed her gait. Keeping her cool about her, she calmly stepped onto the


    stage. The way she ignored them only further upset rice and Isabe.


    Isabe turned to rice, her face stark with disgust and disbelief. "Why is she here?"


    rice snorted contemptuously, then she reached for her phone and texted her secretary.


    She instructed her secretary to contact the jewelry house and find out why they had approached Isabel, of all people. This was to


    be further supplied with a veiled threat of whether they hoped to resume business in Southboro.


    The jewelry house was an international brand with countless outlets spread across the world. With that said, Southboro was one


    of the premium markets, and no business would want to lose ess to a market like Southboro.


    Isabel waspletely unaware that rice was already plotting against her. She walked onto the stage and began to conduct


    the exhibition ording to the procedure the coordinator had briefed her on.


    Meanwhile, the coordinator of the exhibition was standing backstage with a handsome young man dressed in a tailored suit with


    matching leather shoes.


    It was at that point when the phone of the coordinator suddenly rang. He threw a nce at the man beside him.


    The man was staring at Isabel and barely acknowledged the coordinator.


    The coordinator took two careful steps backward and proceeded to answer the call.
