Reborn Through Fire

Chapter 40

Chapter 40 Business Trip It was not until she boarded the plane that Kisa remembered why Athadale sounded so familiar. It seemed that Gilbert’s business trip was to Athadale, which was quite a coincidence. But it was a good thing Athadale was so big that she would not run into Gilbert.

It was Ariella‘s first time attending a brand event. She was both excited and nervous, repeatedly confirming the time and place with her agent before leaving. “Ugly, this event is very important to me. Don‘t make any mistakes. Or I won‘t spare you.” She warned Kisa as she looked into a small mirror to touch up her makeup.

Kisa nodded submissively. “Don‘t worry, Ariella.” As a nanny–type assistant, she was just taking care of Ariella‘s food, clothing, and living, so she figured nothing would go wrong, and Ariella was just overly nervous.

After a three–hour flight, the plane finally touched down at Athadale. As soon as they got off the plane, Ariella tugged at Kisa and asked nervously, “How does my makeup look?” Kisa had no words. Ariella was wearing a mask and a hat that concealed her makeup. But Kisa still smiled and replied, “Very good, Ariella. You are the prettiest.”

Ariella looked good with a pretty face. Although not carrying herself with ease and confidence as Sharon did, she was still very conspicuous in the crowd but just did not get as much fame. When she heard a satisfactory answer, her confidence was boosted, and she walked with her head held high.

Just then, two bodyguard–like men approached her. “Hello, are you Miss Kelley?” Ariella hurriedly nodded and asked with a bit of excitement, “You are?”

“The Mullen Group sends us to pick you up, Miss Kelley.” The event Ariella was attending this time was a jewelry exhibition held by The Mullen Group. Since The Mullen Group sent these men, Ariella figured it made sense. “Now, please come with us to the hotel for a rest. Mr. Mullen will host a banquet to

welcome you at the Regina Clubhouse at eight o‘clock in the evening. Someone will come to pick you up then.” Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

Ariella was too excited to speak. She just nodded her head. Kisa whispered a thank you to the men.

The hotel room arranged by The Mullen Group was a top–notch luxury suite. Ariella had never been treated like this in all her years of playing a bit–part actress. She had been in a state of excitement, either sitting on this soft couch or lying on that chaise longue or standing in front of the floor–to–ceiling windows dancing and looking out at the neon lights outside. Kisa was unpacking the luggage. Ariella brought a lot of clothes with her this time. It was only a three–day business trip, but her luggage size looked as if she was coming for a long stay. While hanging the clothes in the closet, she asked Ariella, “Which outfit are you going to wear to The Regina Clubhouse later?”

“Ahh, I almost forgot I have to meet Mr. Mullen of The Mullen Group later.” Ariella suddenly remembered it and rushed to her closet to choose her dress. “I heard that the young boss of

The Mullen Group is rich and handsome, so I have to dress up well tonight. Maybe if he likes me. I won‘t have to worry about anything in the future,” she said with a longing look on her face. Seeing Kisa say nothing but just hang the clothes, Ariella frowned. “Say something. You are like a mute all day.” Kisa quickly smiled and flattered her. “You are so pretty. The young boss of The Mullen Group will surely be attracted.” Ariella was flattered and broke into a smile. “Of course. Don‘t worry. When I become rich, I will not forget you, Ugly.” Kisa just let out a smile, thinking that Ariella might have a bad temper, but she was at least easy to coax. Someone picked them up at 7:45 pm, and they arrived at The Regina Clubhouse at 8:00 pm Anthony, the young boss of The Mullen Group, had reserved the entire second floor of the clubhouse. Kisa and Ariella were led to the door of the largest private room on the second floor.

“You two may go in now, as all the other guests are already here, just waiting for Miss Kelley.” As soon as she heard this, Ariella got nervous and tugged at Kisa‘s arm. “Take a look at my makeup. Is it okay? Do I look good in this outfit?” Ariella was wearing a long slim dress, outside covered with fur, hair coiled into a simple bun with a pearl headdress. She looked elegant. Of course, the premise was that she should not open her mouth. Kisa smilingly said, “Ariella, you don‘t have to be nervous. Remember that you are the best looking.” Ariella exhaled. “Then why don‘t you hurry up and push the door for me?” Kisa grabbed the door handle and pushed it open at once.
