Novel & Cerita Beautiful Scandal

"You really just said that." "I really did." He leaned back, crossing his arms. "Alessandro Ricci, by the way. I don't think we were properly introduced yesterday. You were busy bleeding everywhere." "Seraphina Ashford." I paused. "But you probably already know that." "The scandal girl." He waved a dismissive hand. "Yes, yes, I've heard the gossip. BDSM club, compromising photos, stock market chaos. Very dramatic." Heat crept up my neck. "I didn't—it wasn't—"

Bella's Pov I just couldn't shake the rage bubbling inside me. Nix!!! That deceitful, cunning, lowlife bitch. Everyone in the industry has heard about her "shady" dinner with Alessandro. Mind you, I was the one that came up with the plan to meet him, but that witch had to scurry to him first. She must be even more dumb that I thought if she hadn't figured out that I knew she was the one to leak my nudes to the blogs.

He urged. Fabiola swallowed. How can he be so annoying?!Well…she also had nothing to lose. She was going to die soon and she wasn’t popular at all. And he wouldn’t dare blame her for the consequences because he pushed her to. She clicked the send button and took a deep breath. She glanced at Lorenzo who had sat back in his place and was now looking at her as if she was a clown. After all this, Fabiola felt her strength being drained from her body. She had the impression that rich people were most afraid of scandals, especially sex scandals, but this man was not playing by the rules.

Jill shouted that get back to his senses. “Wha–what?” “I asked what did you do to Tatiana?” Molly repeated. Caleb looks at his bleeding arms then at my hands holding a piece of broken glass then at my eyes that shows no emotion. His green eyes stared at mine. I stared back with full of coldness. “What happened to my sweet innocent, mi amor, Tatiana...?” He said in a low voice. I swallow the lump in my throat. “Your sweet innocent Tatiana?” I scoffed. “There’s no sweet innocent Tatiana, Caleb. She’s just your f*cking illusion. That sweet innocent Tatiana you’re saying is dead twenty years ago.”

I had been trying to stop Maggie from being involved with me but it seemed I was the danger in his life. The first scandal in his life happened because he took me to the hotel when I was drunk. He couldn’t bear to leave me out in the streets and he didn’t take advantage of me either. His second scandal was when he assaulted Duncan who was saying things that were dishonorable to me. Now, I had almost killed the same man, unknowingly of course.

Elena’s POV “Because you don’t know what rich people are capable of doing,” my father said tightly, his voice low but trembling with restrained anger. “I saw the headlines, Elena. I heard the way they talked about you — your name dragged across every gossip site like you’re some desperate social climber. You think this is love? This is humiliation!” “I’ll just… go to my room,” Sandra murmured, slipping away with her headphones already halfway in, clearly wanting no part in the storm.

The line went dead immediately , i stared at my phone for a second then sighed and reached for the remote. The TV flickered on and instantly—Chaos. “…breaking news this morning as shocking footage surfaces—” I blinked, trying to focus. The headline flashed across the screen. SCANDAL: BUSINESS HEIR SEBASTIAN EXPOSED My heart skipped. “What…?” I sat up straighter. Clips started playing of me and Valentina at the gala, the slap and her loud and clear confession. My stomach dropped. “Oh my God…” Then another clip of Sebastian being beaten up by me with masks and I could hear the sickening crack of his bones.

The massive OLED TV displayed what I hoped it would: coverage of the chaos I had served on a silver platter the night before. Headlines were already running wild. "Billionaire Engagement Party Ends in Sex Tape Scandal!" "Alexander McQueen Caught in Shocking Elevator Video!" "Bride-to-Be Collapses as Secrets Are Revealed—Lucien & Rueben Also Involved!" And the video clips... oh, they were everywhere. Blurred strategically, tastefully scandalous. I leaned over the couch, resting my chin on Shane’s shoulder, and reached for his glass. "You're drinking already?" I murmured against his skin, taking a sip.

He thought that would be the end of it, but the next day, the video of me confronting Lisa went viral. Of course, the hottest topic was the scandal about David and Henry.

This wasn’t just a fight—it was a scandal. And then, like a thunderclap, a sharp sound echoed through the room. I turned toward the source, my heart leaping into my throat. Killian’s mother stood at the top of the staircase, her hand poised mid-air from the clap. Her face was a perfect storm of fury and composure, her piercing gaze sweeping over the scene before landing on us. Her expression alone could silence a battlefield. She descended slowly, her heels clicking against the marble floor with deliberate precision. Each step seemed to stretch time, the tension in the room growing thicker with every second.
