being called "Slapping Master" or "Censor Master" in the past, but now they've cup with such a bizarre

nickname... Isabella was truly upset by the unscrupulous netizens. Aggrieved, she voiced her complaints to her

new manager, Danielle.

Danielle ruthlessly retorted, "What a great opportunity this is! It's like spontaneous popularity, something others

can't even dream of, and it's all positive for you. To add fuel to the fire, she liked and replied to the comment.

In a fit of frustration, Isabella gulped down the remaining half cup of latte.

Suddenly, a soft laughter echoed from the side.

Immediately. Isabella glared in that direction.

Alexander immediately pretended to be engrossed in a document as if he wasn't the one laughing.

"Hey!"

Alexander cleared his throat and said, "Danielle probably wants to shape your image like this. In this way, most

people wouldn't dare to mess with you, nor would they dare to approach you with any shad business."

Isabella was taken aback. "What? Is that so?

Alexander nodded. "She also wants to use your situation to establish an unshakeable image for the agency.

suggesting it will never fall apart. This way, any artists joining your agency in the future will naturally inspire

more trust among the public, making it easier to win over win situation."

of such a peculiar reputation.

After sthought, Alexander added, "If you really don't want to, just tell Danielle directly and let her

handle it."

Isabella paused before asking, "Can | do that?"

Alexander nodded earnestly. "No one can force you to do something you're unwilling to. If she can't handle it

properly, | will."

reputation wouldn't be shattered, thus becoming idols worth pursuing.

Sfans were rather audacious, even going so far as to demand their idols to confront the negative rumors

about them head-on and clear their own names.

However, those celebrities with real scandals could only try to pacify their fans. Who would dare to hee such

challenges at that time? They all acted like turtles hiding in their shells.

During that time, numerous jokes and scandals surfaced.

Isabella spent the entire afternoon giggling to herself. Finally, Alexander had to attend a meeting, but hi couldn't

take her along because she was too distracting

"Huh? | don't need to go? Then L..."

"Can you

tout the files on my computer?" Alexander requested before he took off.

Isabella nodded in agreement and stayed in the office.

Throughout the day, Isabella mainly assisted by flipping through sdocuments, searching for contracts,

typing on the computer, and responding to messages on Alexander's phone for him. Since documents, contracts,

mobile phones, and computers were all deemed important, especially after the incident with Hannah, Alexander

made sure no one else could access them. Unexpectedly, despite everything, Isabella ended up being the only

person allowed to cclose to thos things.

Surely, Ms. Gates will have a fit in prison if she knows about this.

Isabella couldn't help but laugh. She was just about to leave after tidying up when suddenly, an email

notification popped up on Alexander's computer screen.

Before, Isabella had helped Alexander manage his emails. Seeing that this email was from an unknown source,

she directly opened it.

As soon as she opened it, Isabella froze.

Alex, I'll be returning to the country in half a month. Can we meet up?

Isabella blinked, quickly realizing that it must be a message from Alexander's first love, Eleanor

She released the mouse and scratched her head, regretting her hasty decision to click on the email. It had led to

an awkward situation.

A while later, Isabella found herself staring at the email again.

It was odd. Wasn't she supposed to feel happy?

After all, due to the so-called destiny, she couldn't initiate the divorce herself. She could only break free if

Alexander was the one to initiate the divorce.

So, her ongoing plan had always been to play the obedient wife as she patiently waited for his first love to

return. She was biding her tfor their inevitable entanglement, for Alexander to be consumed by guilt. Then,

This was the exit script she had planned for herself.

She should be happily preparing for the countdown, right?

She realized what was wrong.

Life had been too comfortable for her. She had grown accustomed to the lifestyle at the Quirk manor ar

considered it her comfort zone. The idea of breaking away from these established routines was unsettlin for her.

However, it wasn't a big deal. The mere thought of an alimony exceeding two hundred million, along wit various

investments, and the path already paved in the entertainment industry, made Isabella's expressic instantly

blossom with joy as she looked at the email. Darling. I'll be waiting for you.

Isabella made a heart with her fingers at the email, then stood up and left Alexander's office.

After all, Alexander's meeting was taking a long time. She decided to head downstairs and relax for a bit. She

hadn't had enough of her latte earlier.

The place where the assistant bought her latte was the leisure bar within the corporation.

Since it wasn't teatime, there were few people who chere to sit and rest.

She had just gone to the front desk to place an order when the staff recognized her. They respectfully told her

she could sign the bill later. Suddenly, a woman's voice echoed from behind.

"Ms. Jeannet?"

Isabella was startled. Someone from the company wouldn't possibly address her like that. Only those in the

entertainment industry would call her that.

Upon turning around, she saw someone that she didn't expect to see.

In a not so distant seating area, there were five women of radiant beauty. They all exuded an extraordinary aura

and were adorned with jewels as they sat sipping their tea. However, the way they glanced over was arrogant,

their gaze filled with a hint of disdain and condes The person who called out to her was the woman in the middle,

Ruth Aguilar.

She was the wife of Gordon Gonzales from the third group in the show-Gordon was a beloved old actor.

Aside from their initial introduction, Isabella never really had a proper conversation with Ruth. After all, Ruth was

preoccupied with keeping an eye on her husband and the most beautiful Cleopatra, Rebecca Yancey, who was

ostracized by the wives of men in the entertainn The two groups had never crossed paths, so naturally, there

was no other interaction.

Isabella thought it was a serendipitous encounter, and since Ruth had called out to her....

A glint of mischief flashed in Isabella's eyes as she courteously went over to greet the ladies.

Ruth didn't stand up. She merely nodded and introduced Isabella to the ladies beside her. "This is Isabella

Jeannet."

Ruth introduced Isabella to the others, but they merely acknowledged her with a haughty nod, showing no

intention whatsoever of introducing themselves.

Isabella didn't feel any anger from being looked down upon. On the contrary, she was trying hard to suppress her

laughter because she understood why they were treating her that way.

They were unaware of her true identity, and had probably assumed all along that she was a young mistress. kept

by sdirector of Quirk Group.

In fact, Isabella and Alexander weren't exactly in a secret marriage. It was just that families in business preferred

not to disclose their private lives.

Therefore, even for Christopher, fans wouldn't have known that he was the third son of Quirk Group. However,

his identity would still circulate within the industry.

As for Isabella's identity, it remained a mystery within the entertainment industry. All that was known was that

she wasn't a lover of Christopher, nor was she just a high-society debutante out for a lark. Ruth was aware of

Christopher's identity. If Christopher was willing to bring along a newcomer, then he or

she undoubtedly had a significant connection with Quirk Group. However, she hadn't expected that the

newcomer would be the CEO's wife. After all, which CEO's wife would participate in a variety show? Isabella

assumed that after exchanging greetings, she could leave. However, to her surprise, Ruth said, "Please, have a

seat."

"Huh?" Isabella was shocked. "Won't | interrupt your gathering?"

"No. Actually, we are here to see you. Since we've already run into you, we might as well just tell you that we

need your help," Ruth stated directly, her gaze leaving no room for refusal. Curiosity piqued, Isabella asked,

"What's going on?"

"Aren't you the Justice Upholder? We hope that in the next showdown, you'll help us take down Rebecca! We

want this homewrecker to lose all standing and reputation in the entertainment industry."
