Chapter 354
In front of all the attendees, Bella left the banquet hall with Ada Wang as if they were long- lost friends. The entire venue fell into an awkward and suffocating silence.
Justin stared intensely at Bella’s delicate figure with red
eyes.
Last time, she snatched his project. This time, she snatched his guest.
He thought, ‘Bella, you’re not at all like a wealthy heiress, but rather like a bandit who forcefully takes what she wants! You’re really something!’
Justin instinctively covered his chest, feeling an emptiness inside, as if Bella had also taken something on the inside.
At the entrance of the Salvador Hotel, a few reporters remained gathered.
Logically, Ada would have already checked in, and after the banquet, she should have gone straight back to the presidential suite to rest. These reporters waiting here seemed to be wasting their time and should have gone home long ago.
However, the number of reporters did not seem much less than before the banquet started, which was unusual. The reason being that these reporters were all tipped by Steven under the pretext of “a guarantee of shocking news”.
Some reporters had become impatient and complained about waiting.
“Why are we waiting here in this freezing weather? What other big story could happen tonight?”
“I guess KS Group isn’t going to give up and wants to make some last-ditch effort.”
“What can they do if they don’t give up? This is Savrow, not Hatchbay. A foreign behemoth can’t necessarily suppress a local top dog. Anyway, the Salvador family is the top dog in Savrow, and KS Group is just an outsider. They’re bound to face difficulties. Moreover, how could Bella Thompson compete with Mr. Salvador?”
“Tsk, you’re spot on! Mr. Salvador might be a fool in matters of the heart, but in business, he’s top-notch. KS Group can’t hold a candle to Salvador Corporation in Savrow!”
Suddenly, a loud honk startled everyone. The reporters turned to look in the direction of the headlights, only to see a dark green, top-of-the-line Rolls-Royce slowly approaching. It smoothly came to a halt in front of the hotel entrance.
Seeing this fancy car, the reporters thought another celebrity had arrived and began vigorously taking photos.
When the car door opened, Steven, dressed in a well-fitted suit, descended. The flashes abruptly stopped, leaving the journalists disappointed. Although this man was quite handsome, good looks alone couldn’t make headlines.
“Ah! Ada Wang! Ada Wang is coming out!” Someone in the crowd shouted. The reporters’ attention once again focused on the hotel entrance.
Steven had opened the door to the backseat. His gaze was focused in the same direction
everyone else was staring.
Bella and Ada strolled side-by-side as the camera flashes became frantic.
“What?! Ada Wang left the Salvadors’ party for Bella?!”
“The banquet hasn’t even started yet, but their guest of honor has already been stolen away. Mr. Salvador must be so embarrassed!”
“OMG! This is a huge headline! The competition between Salvador Corporation and KS Group is truly sensational. Hurry, take pictures!”
