Chapter 175
Olivia was drinking watermelon juice and was watching a play, when she heard her father's words, she couldn't hold back herself and burst into laughter.
She laughed and almost choked.
Oscar hurriedly took out a piece of paper towel and handed it to her sister.
Olivia paused a few times, and then she said to Bruce, "Hello, uncle."
Her expression was sweet and polite.
Seeing this, Oscar also laughed.
Bruce's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.
This was an inexplicable matter of seniority.
That cunning and intelligent gaze filled with malice as well as the smile flickering in the girl's eyes, made Bruce even more depressed.
‘'Many of them are scheming and sophisticated” he thought. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
He was accustomed to observing people's expressions.
However, looking at Bruce's dark expression, most people would surely make the wrong impression.
They all thought that Olivia's impolite laughter had offended him.
As a result, despite his elegant appearance, many of the guests looked at Langston with criticism for not teaching his daughter proper etiquette.
Someone said, "Mr.Clements, your daughter still needs to be taught proper etiquette.How can she behave in such a manner on an occasion like this?"
"That's right.This is impolite.Why are you laughing? Is there anything funny? Why don't you apologize to Mr.Tucker?"
Langston scolded Olivia.
Langston would do anything to protect his daughter in front of other people! He could only allow others to praise his daughter, but not judge her!
These sermons sounded like they were intended for ignorant little girls, but to put it mildly, they were calling his daughter vulgar and uneducated! Langston's expression darkened, and he was ready to defend his daughter from these judgmental people surrounding them!
However, Bruce's slender index finger tapped on the table, and he looked at the crowd casually.
His thin lips gently opened, as if he was smiling, "Aren't you guys talking too much here?"
With this statement, Bruce's rage engulfed everyone around him.
Everyone who judged Olivia was terrified and shivered.
Bruce's voice was so cold that it made people tremble.
"We're sorry, Miss Clements.Again, we apologize.We shouldn't have misjudged you unfairly."
They apologized.
After saying that, they even slapped their own mouths to express their apology.
Bruce's expression did not change, but he frowned slightly, indicating that his patience had reached its limit.
His personal assistant who was standing at the side immediately made a gesture to the observing people.
His face was smiling and his tone was irrefutable.
"Everyone, please take your seats."
Flattery didn't quite hit the mark.
A person who didn't offend others would easily end up with a head full of air.
‘'How can anyone dare to say more?'’ the assistant thought.
The people dispersed in a dejected manner.
Originally, Charles wanted to introduce Anderson to Bruce.
If Anderson was lucky enough to get to know him, it would definitely be of great help to him in the future! But, Bruce didn't even look at him.
The assistant on his side also nodded politely, "Mr.Lauren, today, you are the star in this party.Please keep the other guests entertained"
It was a subtle way of dismissing Charles and his son.
Charles didn't dare to offend him, so he left with his new wife and Anderson after an exchange of a few polite words.
It was North who refused to leave.
With great difficulty, she had a chance to get close to Bruce.
Her heart was filled with anticipation.
‘'Is it because Bruce knows my current situation and I am here to support him?” she wondered.
Ignoring so many people, in the end, Bruce chose a table and sat down.
This table was facing the southern view.
Olivia and Bruce happened to be wearing the same color dress and suit! Deep blue, signifying dignity and stability.
At first glance, it looked like a perfect match, as if it they made an agreement as a couple to dress in matching color! This triggered North's jealousy! Clutching her dress tightly, and with anticipation, she stepped forward and asked, "Mr.Tucker, don't you remember me?"
