Chapter 430
The fake Alexa jewelry necklace Bethany acquired from Zoe worked
wonders.
Bethany braced herself, apprehensive about being discovered when presenting the
necklace to Ada as a gift.
Nevertheless, Bethany had figured out a backup plan if she were discovered. She could
save her ass by saying that she was scammed by a friend because of her limited
knowledge of jewelry.
Alexa’s apprentice must have fine-tuned his craftsmanship because Ada did not suspect
that the necklace was a copy. Ada happily wore the necklace right away, reluctant to take
it off.
In the end, Ada signed the contract with Bethany.
That was not the only thing. With Shannon putting in the good word about Bethany,
Gregory finally pulled her to the core of the business and promoted her to higher
management. She could join the meeting
with the senior executives at last.
That night, Shannon and Bethany enjoyed a celebratory drink on the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbalcony.
“Your dad will hand over the management of the hotel to you after Ada’s wedding. Make
an impactful first impression, my dear. In time, you will be on the board of directors, and
that’s when you and I will get rid of Justin.”
Shannon held her daughter, her eyes sparkling as if bearing
glimmering hope. “I can’t count on your sister, but my future is in your

hands.”
“Don’t worry, Mom. Once I make it to the top, I will seize control from
Justin. The Salvador Group will be ours.”
Beaming with pride, Bethany clinked glasses with Shannon.
The butler’s voice came from the door.
“Madam Shannon, Ms. Bethany, we have received an invitation.”
The mother and daughter exchanged glances before walking out of
the balcony.
Bethany asked, “Who is the invitation from?”
“A Mr. Lovett, the secretary of KS World Hotel’s general manager.”
KS World Hotel? Was the invitation from Bella?
“Got it. You’re dismissed.” Shannon took the invitation card and
closed the door.
She opened the envelope and pulled out two invites to a charity.
jewelry auction.
Shannon pursed her lips, her expression obscure.
“Mom, we haven’t heard anything from Bella in a while. Why did she
drop these invites out of the blue? Can it be a trap?” Bethany asked
worriedly.
“Ha. We have nothing to be afraid of. Ada has signed the contract.
with you, and there’s nothing she can do about it.”

Bethany exclaimed, with her finger pointing at the TV. “That’s the iconic fashion magazine.
It’s the dream of many celebrities to grace. the cover of the magazine. I can’t believe
Bella is co-organizing the charity with Mint. That’s unexpected. It’s said on the news that

Bethany assumed that KS World would hit rock bottom after losing Ada, but Bella
managed to secure a partnership with Mint. She got her hands on everything.
Jealousy drove Bethany to clench her fist, digging her nails into her
palms.
“Hmph. She might be hosting a huge event, but she lost. It’s just. damage control now.”
Shannon gritted her teeth. “We will appear unladylike if we decline the
invitation. Nothing is stopping me from going. She doesn’t scare me.
“We can also keep an eye on her, in case she tries something with
Ada and ruins things for us.”
Bella enjoyed a nice chat with the editor-in-chief of Mint magazine.
She carried on the conversation in a foreign language with ease.
She changed into tight athletic wear to go kayaking at the back of the
villa when Asher dropped by for a visit.
“Ash!”
