Isabelle said coldly, “She has the designs, but I have a brain!”
She’d get back the honors Tonya stole one by one.
“Bella, you’re a genius designer. You’ll finally be the center of attention again after this contest.” Glenda’s eyes reddened.
Isabelle held her hand tightly.
“You’ll be busy with the designs every day from today on. How about we go shopping today?” Glenda suggested, thinking they were already
out, anyway.
Isabelle shook her head. “I want to go to a jewelry exhibition.”
“A motivated woman is scary,” Glenda thought. Then, as an idea occurred to her, she smiled cunningly, “OK!”
She drove to the CBD of the city and stopped in front of the office building of Supreme Jewelry. Isabelle was confused. “Why did you bring me to my arch–enemy’s company?”
Glenda was a man–crazy girl. Her eyes brightened. “Aren’t we gonna flatter Mr. Levine? Let’s start by knowing him. I can’t wait to see him ever since you mentioned his striking looks! The SJ Group has a jewelry exhibition today. I want to see him!”
“Why are you so crazy about good–looking men?” Isabelle was mad. “And this man is my arch–enemy! How can do this to me?”
“It’s too soon to criticize me. Maybe you’ll drool over him too later.”

Isabelle didn’t know what to say.
Just then, a line of limos stopped in front of the towering building. In the middle was a Rolls–Royce. When the car door was opened, he got
out.
He buttoned his suit jacket elegantly with a cold aura. His profile was eye–catching.
Isabelle couldn’t take her eyes off his gorgeous face. After their meeting at the club, he remained so charming.
Numerous women came to see him and screamed. His thick eyebrows knitted as the security guards tried to disperse them.
Glenda screamed the most loudly. “Shit! I can’t believe my eyes! He’s so damn gorgeous! Bella! Support me.”
Hearing the name Bella, the man stopped abruptly and turned his head with an intense look in his eyes.
Isabelle looked at her arch–enemy, who was several meters away, and snorted, “Why are you attracted to him? He isn’t even as good–looking as my nominal husband!”
A faint smile appeared in the man’s surveying eyes.
“What? He’s even more charming than Mr. Levine?”
Isabelle sized her tall arch–enemy up. She’d never seen Warren’s face. “They’re about the same height!”
“You think your husband is good–looking because of that?” Glenda rolled her eyes.
“Not just that. They also have similar figures and bearings…”

Staring at the man, Isabelle suddenly fell silent. Something was wrong.
Why were Warren and this man similar in these aspects?
The man had entered the building under his bodyguards‘ protection. Isabelle pressed through the crowd to catch up to him and find out!
Hiding behind the security guards, she snuck into the building too.
When the exclusive elevator of the CEO came, Warren strode in!
The security guards stopped Isabelle. “Miss, why are you intruding?”
“I…” The doors of the elevator were closing. Anxious, Isabelle called out, “Mr. L! What are you doing here?”
But her arch–enemy, who was standing with his back to her, didn’t turn around.
“Mr. L!” Isabelle called out again.
The man still pretended not to hear her.
Watching the elevator go up, Isabelle sighed and patted her head. Since her arch–enemy didn’t respond when she called him L, they couldn’t possibly be the same person.
What was she thinking?
“Bella! Why are you here?” Glenda finally found her and quipped, “You act like you dislike your arch–enemy, but it turns out you’re more attracted to him than me. You even followed him into his office building! Tsk.”
Isabelle was lost for words.
She didn’t want to tell Glenda that she thought her arch–enemy was her

nominal husband just now!
Isabelle pushed her out of the building. “I came in for the jewelry exhibition but got disappointed. Let’s go shopping!”
“Come on! Each piece is rare and precious here!” Glenda said, pointing to the showcase. “Mr. Levine is a jewelry tycoon. I think you’re jealous!”
With a serious look, Isabelle said. “I’m not as famous as him now, but when I make a comeback, I’ll take him down!”
***
Out of the elevator, the man stood by the window on the second floor and watched when Isabelle said those words.
Take him down? He smiled wickedly. How?
His assistant also chuckled, thinking his boss must like the idea of Ms. Spencer taking him down!

Downstairs.
“OK. Let’s go shopping. Do you need to tell Tara about it?” Glenda reminded her.
Isabelle hurriedly called Tara.
When the two girls were buying coffee, Isabelle’s phone rang. She answered. “Ms. Spencer, I’m Mr. L’s assistant. Please friend him on Line. He wants to talk to you.”
She was puzzled. Why did Warren’s assistant call her?

Isabelle friended Warren immediately. He had a black profile. It was perfect for his aloof bearing. A message came soon after!
L: “Are you looking at another man behind my back?”
Isabelle was shocked.
What the hell? How did he know? She looked around nervously.
Looking at her through the window on the second floor, Warren smiled as his trick worked.
L: “Are you going shopping?”
Isabelle was about to type “Yes” when he sent her a document.
Isabelle got mad as soon as she opened it!
Curious, Glenda leaned in to look at the document. “Damn! What a wonderful husband! You’re only going shopping, but he already sent you a document, reminding you not to have coffee, fried food, or chili… How considerate! He spoils you like a daughter. If only I had such a charming husband doing this for me too!”
Isabelle first stared at her, then at the document.
Angrily, she had a big mouthful of coffee and said, “Bite me!”
Warren frowned as she threw away the cup of coffee with a pout.
“What a naughty girl!” Warren said with a smile before leaving.
His assistant wondered, “Do big bosses all praise their wives like this?”
In a mall, Glenda wanted to call Sue Davis, another friend of hers, to join them.

But she couldn’t reach her on the phone.
Glenda frowned. “Since you came back alive, Sue has never contacted us. What has she been doing? Are super stars also so busy?”
After a moment of silence, Isabelle said, “Her update on Twitter says she’s been playing a drama. Maybe she didn’t look at her phone. Let’s take a rain check!”
“OK.” Glenda nodded and took her to the Hermes store.
They had many new arrivals. Isabelle took one randomly. The sales assistants used to deliver limited editions to Isabelle’s home.
“This is a luxurious, customized product worth 120 thousand dollars. Ms. Spencer.” A salesgirl walked over. She recognized Isabelle.
“How can you let her touch that dress with her dirty hand!” a haughty voice said from behind.
