Chapter 273:
Then, a sharp, mocking voice cut through the air. “Looks like just about anyone can enter the Harper Group’s automotive design competition these days p>
Brenna turned to catch Isabella’s sneering profile. She hadn’t seen Isabella for so long and had almost forgotten about her.
She arched an eyebrow in quiet amusement. Had the Barrett family not gone bankrupt yet?
Today, Isabella chose a bold black suit dress that hugged her curves perfectly. Her striking figure turned heads, drawing the attention of every man who passed by.
Brenna’s eyes narrowed as she observed Isabella. She recalled that at the last welcome banquet, Isabella’s figure had been rather modest in terms of her chest.
Could it be that Isabella had gotten implants after the banquet?
A playful grin tugged at Brenna’s lips as she noticed Isabella’s now noticeably larger chest.
In no time at all, Isabella had stolen the spotlight, her figure drawing admiring glances from men and envious stares from women. Isabella flourished under the attention, soaking it in.
Brenna took another look. Isabella’s makeup was impeccable, and her neck was adorned with a necklace that screamed luxury, likely worth a fortune. Given the Barrett family’s rumored financial troubles due to the Harper family’s suppression, Brenna wondered how they managed such extravagance for Isabella.
Lately overwhelmed with her own matters, Brenna hadn’t kept track of the Barrett family’s financial situation. She made a mental note to look into it later.
Noticing Brenna’s gaze, Isabella instinctively crossed her arms over her chest. Her voice was a mix of discomfort and anger as she asked, “What are you staring at? Haven’t you seen such a perfect figure before?” However, Brenna’s eyes revealed a hint of admiration that didn’t escape Isabella’s notice. In response, Isabella tilted her head proudly and let out a dismissive scoff.
The envy among the women was undeniable, making her pleased with herself.

She could still recall the embarrassing incident when her lack of curves had been highlighted at the last banquet. Determined never to feel that humiliation again, she had sought the most dramatic enhancement the very next day.
Brenna moved closer to Isabella, her voice calm yet cutting. “You’ve had some enhancements, haven’t you p>
Isabella immediately understood that Brenna was mocking her with the question.
A mix of displeasure and embarrassment bubbled up within Isabella as she replied defensively, “You’re talking nonsense!” Her gaze drifted to Brenna’s attire—a sophisticated deep blue sleeveless top draped elegantly over…
Her outfit was paired with a shimmering gold necklace that hugged her smooth neck. The pendant looked vaguely familiar to Isabella, though she couldn’t quite place where she had seen it before. Brenna’s ensemble was completed with a pair of sharp, perfectly tailored trousers, and her wrist was adorned with a delicate bracelet featuring a teardrop pendant, which complemented her poised demeanor.
Although Brenna’s outfit had no visible labels, it exuded a quiet elegance that made Isabella’s branded clothes seem less impressive.
