Bella yawned tiredly and said, “Memphis must harbor resentment towards me and Rosalind, given hiscaptivity.”.

She continued, “But if I show him a little kindness while he’s on the brink of mental collapse, I’mconfident he’ll be profoundly grateful to me and channel his hatred towards Rosalind. At that point, he’llput all his energy into seeking revenge against her.”

Steven complimented, “Ms. Bella, you’re so intelligent.” He added, “I can’t wait to see them fight!”

A week later.

Bella finished a thorough inspection of the restaurant and returned to her office, feeling satisfied. It hadbeen almost six months since she took over the hotel, and every aspect of the business was thrivingwith an increase in profits.

During the recent evaluation, the hotel not only successfully retained its star rating but was alsoawarded the title of “Most Popular Hotel of the Year.”

Bella, however, had her sights set higher. She aspired to win the prestigious “Best Hotel of the Year”title, which had been held by the Salvador family for five consecutive years. With Bella on board, theThompson family had a chance to claim the coveted title and steal the limelight.

Bella surprised Steven by accepting interviews from three well-known media outlets and making publicappearances, which was quite different from her usual discreet approach. She had her reasons fortaking such bold actions. Bella realized that relying solely on being Wyatt’s daughter would not earn thetrust of everyone if she wanted to become the CEO of KS Group.

In order to establish herself, she understood that she couldn’t remain a silent leader in the shadows.She had to step forward into the limelight and showcase her achievements to the people of KS Group.

When Wyatt entrusted her with the hotel’s management, it was akin to handing her a ladder. Bellaseized this opportunity and intended to make the most of it.

Bella achieved another significant victory in her pursuits. She was with Steven and about to ask foranother cup of coffee when she remembered that Steven had left to handle an important matter. Aweek had passed, and with Rosalind’s birthday banquet approaching in just two days, Steven had notyet returned.

Bella closed her eyes and lightly tapped her fingers on the table. She was confident that her strategywas right on target. Therefore, she remained calm and patient.

Just then, Bella received a phone call. On the screen, she saw that it was her beloved disciple, RozaWalker.

She quickly answered with a smile, “Roza, what delightful news do you have for me this time?”

Roza greeted her on the phone, “Master!”

Roza spoke in a sweet and friendly tone, “I have baked some homemade pastries and have the

finest tea ready for you. Would you like to drop by my place today for a treat?” She had set aside herusual cold demeanor and opted for a gentler approach.

Bella saw through Roza’s scheme. “You want me to check out Rozabela’s new haute couture designsagain, don’t you?” she responded.

Roza playfully objected and said, “Come on, Master, don’t expose me!”

Bella offered Roza heartfelt encouragement, saying, “Your talents are exceptional! You no longer needmy guidance. You’ve become an inspiration to numerous aspiring designers and have carved out asignificant reputation in the fashion industry. Trust your instincts. If I meddle too much, it mightovershadow the essence of your work. Believe in yourself, Roza!”

“Thank you, Master. Without you, I would not have achieved what I have today.” Roza remained ashumble as she was in her unknown days. Deep down inside, Bella remained her inspiring role model.

Roza hesitated for a moment before she continued, “Master, actually, there’s something else I need toshare, but I’m afraid it might upset you.”

She added, “Just an hour ago, that bitch, Rosalind, showed up again, pestering me for clothes. Shehad her eyes set on the silver off-the-shoulder dress hanging in the design room. Honestly, she has noshame!”

Bella asked casually, “Did you give it to her?”

Roza’s voice softened. “Well, that’s why I am here to apologize to you, Master.

Bella reassured her, “I completely understand. Much like me, you do everything with a purpose andreason. You have your own goals.”

Roza’s disdainful snort cut through the air as she recounted the scene. “That dress she borrowed, ahigh-end design, mind you, is so last year-already out of fashion. And the fit? Oh, it’s a disaster. Thebust and waist measurements don’t suit her figure at all, but she insisted on flaunting the dressanyway!”

A cold laugh escaped Roza’s lips. “I made it crystal clear to her that each haute couture piece I createis unique and precious. She’s allowed to borrow, but if she dares to alter any of my designs, even with

a safety pin, I’ll make her compensate five times the price!”

Bella chuckled, her eyes slightly narrowed. “Won’t there be issues with wearing such an ill- fittingdress?”

Roza responded with a shrug. “Whether there’s an issue or not is not my concern. After all, it’sRosalind’s reputation at stake. Don’t you agree, Master?”
