Chapter 1168

When Stella was looking around for the location reception, she heard Sophia’s voice from behind her.

She said, ’Excuse me, Ma’am. The reception is over there.”

Stella’s dark green dress was remarkable under the night lights. With her excellent figure, she looked elegant from the back.

Thinking that Stella was a noble lady from one of the wealthy families. Sophia’s tone was polite and gentle. “Allow me to show you the way.’

Stella slowly turned around and pushed back the hair on her shoulders.” Thank you,” she said with a smile.

Sophia’s expression immediately changed when she saw the familiar face.” Stella? What are you doing here?”

Stella showed her the wedding invitation and said, “Can’t you tell? I’m here to celebrate Albert and Hylda’s union.”

Sophia almost grabbed the drink beside her and threw it at Stella, as she hated her. Thousands of people criticized Sophia after the incident at the press conference, causing her to lose the opportunity to enter Vinci Rivera and come into contact with top celebrities. As a result, she wanted to kill Stella for this.

However, Sophia felt that God was on her side when she thought of Stella being divorced from Keegan and becoming an unidentified illegitimate daughter. “Quit fooling around. I know you’re not here to congratulate the couple. I heard you lost everything after divorcing Keegan, making things difficult. So, you’re here to grab a meal, aren’t you?”

Sophia’s voice quickly attracted a huge crowd. As the Kane family’s previous granddaughter-in-law, Stella was the talk of the town. She lost her status as a noble lady and was exposed as the true illegitimate child in the Jewell family. She was then reduced to playing minor roles in movies.

Stella’s life was full of ups and downs. Those who used to envy her now felt pity for her.

“Oh my God, is that Stella Jewell? What has she become? Did the divorce affect her that badly? What is she even wearing? It looks so out of fashion.”

“I knew people were exaggerating about her appearance the last time she was on TV. Look at those dark circles under her eyes. Her pores are so obvious too. Were those people blind?”

“She used to be pretty. But now… I think she had the money for skincare when she was still in the Kane family. Now that she’s divorced, she lost all that.”

“Her dress looks so cheap. I remember her being bejeweled at every party and event we had in the past. Her necklaces alone would cost tens of millions of dollars, not to mention her custom-made dresses.’

“She’s so lucky. I can’t believe an illegitimate daughter experienced what it’s like to marry into the Kane family.”

Xianna saw Stella’s sorry state, and her heart burst with joy when she heard what the people were saying. ‘Serves you right. Don’t think I forgot how you screwed me over with that bracelet, bitch,’ she thought.

Xianna’s father hit her for the first time ever due to that incident. Hylda helped her out by taking that bracelet to the jewelry convention and selling it to recover some losses. Even so, Henry’s company still had not recovered from the unwise use of the money.

Sophia’s uncle then married into the Moore family, and Sophia began dating her current boyfriend. This caused a shift between Sophia’s and Xianna’s statuses in the circle. Consequently, Xianna had started following Sophia around.

She sized up Stella’s outfit and smirked. “Mrs. Kane- Ah, I mean Ms.Jewell. Wait, no. You’re not really part of the Jewell family anymore. But… Sophia’s a generous person. I don’t think she’d mind if we called you by that last name, right, Sophia?”
