Chapter 457 The Bracelet Must Be Worn
Isabella hadn’t expected Seth to pick her up during such a busy time. She quickly grabbed her purse and headed out.

Isabella approached from a distance and called out, “Mr. Shaffer?”
The man turned around, casually tossed his cigarette, and extinguished the ember with his black leather shoe. Then, he gave Isabella a once-over.

Isabella thought he was still holding a grudge and instinctively covered her wrist.

The dress she chose had a bit of black gauze at the wrist, which could mostly conceal the bracelet. She guessed Seth hadn't seen it
As he followed her movement, the man looked over and caught a glimpse of the sparkling light leaking out.
He hummed lightly, slowly approached, and grabbed Isabella’s wrist.
Isabella sighed, thinking he was going to take it back, but Seth simply lifted the gauze and glanced at her. “It’s not something that needs to be hidden. Why are you covering it?”

Once they were in the passenger seat, the surroundings were quiet, with only the faint Sound of the air conditioning.
The car headed toward the Zeus Hotel. Along the way, they passed many luxury cars, all heading in the same direction.

Just as she was thinking, the car slowed down.
Seth didn’t go to the parking lot but stopped directly in front of the hotel entrance.
As soon as the car door was opened, someone came up to take the keys.
Isabella walked to Seth’s side and intended to just follow him in, but Seth unexpectedly offered his arm to her.

Isabella glanced around and noticed that they were already attracting attention. D*mn, she was going to be targeted. The guy next to her was indeed bad news.
Just as she was feeling down, Mandy came over and called out to her, “Bella?” Isabella hadn’t expected to see Mandy. When she saw Jerry next to her, she
immediately understood.
“The ceremony hasn't started yet, Mr. Shaffer. Can | borrow Bella for a moment?” Mandy

As she followed Mandy to the ladies’ lounge, she heard chatter as soon as she entered.
“Ariana’s gemstone was also cut from the ‘Redemption, right?”
“Given the relationship between the Years and the Shaffer Families, it must have been a
gift from Mr. Shaffer, right?” Isabella raised an eyebrow and looked inside. Ariana was standing in the middle of the crowd, showing off the gemstone necklace
around her neck. From a distance, it looked to be at least five carats.
