âDid you hear that? This woman actually wants me to apologize to that housekeeper. Hahahaha⦠Did
you get hit in the head?â
Bethany covered her stomach and laughed out loud. Her two plastic friends behind her also trembled
with laughter.
âBeth went to your hotel to spend money, but your hotel staff broke her necklace and provided such
poor service. Why canât Beth reprimand your staff to vent her anger?â
âThatâs right! You still have the nerve to come over and ask Beth to apologize⦠Do you think that you
own the hotel? Why are you so hung up over it?â
Steven narrowed his eyes and thought, âIf these two bimbos knew that all of the KS World Hotels in the
country belonged to the woman in front of them, they would probably be so frightened that they would
cut off their tongues.â
âArenât you afraid that this incident will affect the image of Salvador Corporation that your brother
worked so hard to maintain? Arenât you afraid of disgracing the Salvador family?â Bella glanced at
Bethany.
âHmph! Donât try to scare me. Iâm not the president of Salvador Corporation, so I donât care!â
Bethany rolled her eyes disapprovingly. âBesides, itâs Justinâs duty as president to worry about the
company and bear all risks, including handling such matters. Otherwise, whatâs the use of him sitting in
such a high position? Since my father asked him to be president, he would have to show everyone
some achievements, right?â
The store attendants around were stunned to hear this.
Bella could not help but sneer.
On the surface, the Salvador family looked harmonious. In fact, they used each other secretly and had
their own agendas.
Bethany looked down on Justin. To her and Shannon, Justin was an âillegitimate sonâ who would clean
up their mess. Shannon and Bethany seemed useless and cowardly, but they were despicable.
When Bella married Justin, she had already seen through the Salvador familyâs true colors. If she had
not been deeply in love with Justin, she would not have been able to stay with them for so long.
âMs. Salvador, even if you donât consider Salvador Corporationâs image, you should consider your own
reputation, right?â
âStop trying to scare me! Anna, donât think that Iâm afraid of you because you have Mr. Thompson as
your backer. The Salvador family isnât weak either!â
Bethany put her hands on her hips and yelled. âWhereâs the security guard? Kick this bumpkin out of
my store! This woman lowered my boutiqueâs standards!â
The two security guards rushed over and wanted to drag Bella out.
Bella still remained seated and motionless. Stevenâs eyebrows twitched when he saw the security
guards approaching Bella, so he kicked them down effortlessly.
After all, Steven had a black belt in Taekwondo, so he was more than qualified to deal with these two
security guards.
Bethany screamed in fright, but the store attendants around her blushed with excitement.
They all thought that Steven was handsome and even wanted to find an opportunity to get his number.
âMs. Salvador, since youâre so clueless, I have no choice but to show you something else.â
With that said, Bella took out her phone and beckoned to Bethany. âHere, let me show you something
interesting.â
Bethany did not want others to think that she was timid, so she went over to the woman whose smile
made her heart tremble.
She came close to the phone screen and was shocked, angry, and ashamed when she noticed what
was on it.
Bella calmly showed Bethany a few photos.
Bethany thought, âWhat happened?! Iâve asked those two people to delete the photos. How could this
beâ¦?â
Bella stopped showing the photos to Bethany and put away her phone with a calm expression. âMy
request is very simple. Make a public apology to my employee, and I will delete all these photos. If you
insist on being stubborn, you probably know what Iâll do next.â
Bethany was so angry that her lips were trembling. She panicked.
Shannon had raised Bethany to be a proper elite lady so that she could marry into a wealthy family like
the Hoffman family. If these photos got leaked, her reputation would be ruined. Ryan would not like
Bethany anymore.
Thinking of this, Bethany was infuriated. She quickly reached over to grab Bellaâs phone.
Bella raised her eyebrows and dodged easily.
Bethany fell on the sofa in embarrassment. Her eyes turned red with anger, and she raised her hand to
slap Bella.
Slap-!
The crisp slap made everyone gasp in shock.
Bellaâs stunning features were as cold as ice, and her wrist strength was terrifying. Bella struck
Bethany with a backhand slap.
âAh!â
Five red fingerprint marks suddenly appeared on Bethanyâs oval face.
All this happened in the blink of an eye.
It was so fast that no one knew how it happened.
Steven secretly cheered and thought, âThatâs what you get for trying to hit Bella!â
Bethanyâs two friends, who had previously said they would support Bethany, were so frightened that
their faces turned pale. They even hid in the back for fear of getting implicated.
âYou! How dare you hit me?!â Bethany stared at Bellaâs face in shock while her cheek was numb with
pain.
