Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 188

Amidst the rising sounds of gasps, a curious man who wasn't much of a gossip lover, couldn't resist, so he leaned over and weakly asked, "Who is it?"

The woman who had spoken earlier wore an expression of disbelief. "Are you really that clueless? I already said it's a big shot from Seldvale. The hint was almost too obvious. Since you peeled the eggs for me, I'll tell you... this big shot is..."

She paused, building suspense, and then lowered her voice, satisfied, "Stephan!"

Stephan was a big shot who controlled the global economic lifeline! Just mentioning his name made some people show awe, while others had faces full of reverence and admiration.

He was a far-off existence for them.

The man who asked the question muttered, "Is that true? But I've heard that Mr. Russell never shows interest in women…"

"Your idea of not being interested in women doesn't mean he's not playing around behind the scenes."

That made sense.

The crowd nodded in agreement and then began discussing Abbie's looks, each commenting, "She's really beautiful."

Before Abbie's fame, her photos were pretty, but compared to her current stunning appearance, she felt like a completely different person.

The saying "being nurtured by wealth" was no exaggeration.

"Abbie's offline event is in Khogend, and I heard two more events are coming up. Let's go and check it out. Who knows, we might get an autograph or a photo!"

"Yeah, that sounds great!"

While gently petting Cloud's sleepy head, Felicia didn't join in their conversation. She quietly listened, but as she thought about Stephan's unpredictable temper, she wondered if the rumors were true.

Spending money for a woman's favor...

She paused for a moment, then suddenly thought, if that was the case, could it be that he had been bothering her multiple times after the herbal medicine incident because they had... a relationship? Maybe he couldn't explain it to that actress, so he was so angry.
