The Invincible Arthur Gardner novel Chapter 56

Estella Strong was renowned as a celebrity and influencer, active in the entertainment sector as a commercial star, and well-known among the top celebrities for her beauty and influence in government circles.

However, few knew that she also has a vast organization in the underworld. She possesses the network and the power to manipulate the government, making her a highly sought-after asset to compel them to implement policies to her will. Furthermore, her remarkable influence made her close to the city and the country's big businessmen.

Estella was renowned among the wealthy and influential of the city for her powerful network and ability to help criminals evade justice. Many men widely admired her stunning beauty, inspiring awe and admiration. No one could ever resist bending their knees before her.

So when her face appeared in Alicia's live-streaming video, it elicited immediate attention, with many viewers remarking on her beauty.

“Wow, there's Estella!” exclaimed one of them. “What is she doing in there? She looks so gorgeous and stunning as always. I'm completely smitten with her.”

“My suspicions are confirmed,” the other one replied. “This is all just some kind of engineering or maybe they are shooting a movie. Look at Estella, she is playing the role of a very menacing mafia boss. She absolutely fits the part. Her beauty is unparalleled.”

“Oh Estella,” sighed the first one dreamily. “I fantasize about her every night. I'm totally captivated by her. I really hope she does an amazing job in this scene.”

“Do you still think this video is fake?” the other asked. “Mr. Glitzy had also saved Claudina before, and Claudina even mentioned it in her solo concert a few days ago. I'm certain this really happened, so maybe Estella is actually the leader of a mafia organization?”

"Are you guys insane?" the first one scoffed. "How could Estella possibly have a background like that? Can't you see? She is just a stunningly gorgeous woman with an enchanting face, who is adored by many men. You guys are so naive to think this event is genuine."

At the same time, Estella laughed as Arthur remained silent when she asked him to kiss her hand. This was the first rejection in her life she'd ever encountered, and she wasn't going to let it go unnoticed.

She raised her right hand, signaling her men to stand down. Of course, none of his subordinates would accept it if their esteemed boss was treated in such a manner.

"Just give me a few minutes to talk to this ungrateful man," she spoke firmly, her voice instantly prompting dozens of people behind her to become silent and obey her.

"Are you sure you can get away from me, Mr. Glitzy?" Estella said quietly.

Alicia simultaneously drew closer to Arthur and whispered in his direction. "She's Estella, a celebrity. I'm sure you never knew her, seeing how you responded to that girl. But it seems she has another identity than a celebrity that not many people know about," she explained.

Arthur then nodded at Alicia's words. "Yes, I've never heard of her name, and I don't even care about her," he insisted.

Estella was outraged by the man standing before her. He showed no regard for her and even denied her the courtesy of a kiss on her fingertips. She was sure that her beauty would be enough to make any man bow to her will, but the man before her dared to reject her. "How dare he!" she thought indignantly.

"I'm certain you have committed a blunder by conducting yourself thusly in my presence, Mr. Glitzy," she uttered tersely. Her comely countenance still appeared captivating even when she was vexed.

"I'm sure it's me who should be angry here," Arthur declared firmly. "You guys came to invade this place, and now you expect me to be courteous to you? Do you really desire to foster a great animosity between us?"
