Chapter 64
Chapter 64
The ruler of the Tucker Clan, who controlled the world economy, had personally arrived, so how could the surrounding guests be concerned about the little brawls amongst children? They all gathered in a circle to welcome him.
However, the special assistant following behind Bruce Tucker knew his boss was becoming agitated, so he gently waved his hand and refused to allow these visitors to proceed.
The entire dinner hall was deafeningly quiet as Bruce was the subject of a variety of stares.
They could not see the bottom of the man's deep gaze, which was as frigid as a frozen pond.
The startling aura on his body persisted, paralyzing all of the guests in the dinner hall to the point that they felt threatened and their hands sweated.
A piece of pink paper, by chance, fell from the sky.
He carefully twisted the paper in his hand.
He performed this basic movement, yet it was still quite lovely for the people to see.
This was the regal demeanor that radiated from him.
He was inherently unreachable and unattainable, like a deity.
Bruce dropped his gaze and studied what was written in the paper.
"It was rather simple.It was just a lovely girl's smiling face.You cannot predict the weather, so always pay attention to the signals in your body.”
‘‘It was simply a simple statement that had been left behind by a note.But why was it that looking at it made people feel uneasy?’’ Bruce thought.
As a result, his face darkened even more.
The guests in the dinner hall exchanged glances, unsure who would make a noise to shatter the odd mood.
Eleanor, on the other hand, boldly rose up and asked, "Uncle Bruce, don't you think the person who sent the love letters has no shame at all? Isn't it cheap to flatter my brother so modestly in order to please him?"
"Huh?"
Bruce lifted his thin and tightly pursed lips slightly, his extremely beautiful face appeared to be smiling his extremely pretty face seemingly smiling, as he stared at Eleanor.
The stare was so icy that it seemed to have a touch of murderous intent.
Eleanor, on the other hand, was unable to comprehend it.
It was almost as though she had been pushed to keep talking, "I have never seen a young lady quite like her.She folds paper cranes and cooks.Who cares about this nonsense, anyway?"
Eleanor gazed at Olivia with pride and arrogance as she spoke.
She sounded as though she was saying, "You are done!"
Olivia ignored her and raised her head to speak, only to meet with Bruce's deep, inquisitive gaze.
Her boss should be quite displeased with her.
After all, the Tucker Clan was linked to the Tubman Clan, and this birthday feast was disrupted partly by Eleanor.
Olivia could even sense Bruce's rage on his face.
However, Eleanor appeared to be much more relaxed.
"Write a love note, fold the stars, and cook breakfast with your own hands?" Bruce said carefully.
"That is correct.You are basically giggling your way to death.You have no shame.I am curious as to how your folks educated you."
Tucker cut off Eleanor's sarcastic comments before she could finish her sentence.
"I am sorry, but I am also interested in such a lovely lady.’’ He said it in a serious tone.
Every syllable was crisp and clear.
It was as though a tsunami had broken through the calm ocean, leaving everyone speechless.
Olivia was even more taken aback.
She jerked her head back to look at Bruce, only to notice a slight smirk on his face.
His piercing stare penetrated the sea of people in front and settled gently on her.
This was a holding position.
Olivia's quiet heart was suddenly illuminated by a ray of light.
A small ray of light found its way into the gloomy nook that had been purposefully ignored.
Although Eleanor’s action was heinous, it was smart in that it forced Olivia to acknowledge that she had done it previously.
After her good intentions were misunderstood and mocked, it became a laughing stock.
Even Leonard, who thought she was a shame because of her rage and humiliation, was among those who laughed at her.
Bruce, on the other hand, was defending her despite the fact that he had nothing to do with the situation.
‘‘What did he want to achieve? It was something that vanished when it was stomped” Olivia thought.
She was bullied and humiliated by a large number of individuals.
"She is not worth it,'' someone finally stood up and exclaimed.
Olivia smiled gently.
Langston, who had been dragged over by Elliott to do his ideological job behind the banquet hall, ran over at this exact time. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
When he saw the paper on the ground, his face turned exceedingly ugly.
‘‘I did not bring my daughter here to be humiliated by others, but to only congratulate Elliott on his birthday!’’ he angrily thought.
Langston was fuming.
He looked Eleanor in the eyes and grasped Olivia's hand, saying, "Let us go, okay? They do not care for us, to hell with them.Come on, let us go home.’’
Finally, the Tubman Clan arrived.
Elliott drew Langston aside and urged him, "Calm down, Langston.Eleanor's wrongdoing will be remedied by me."
Elliott became so enraged after saying that that he banged on the cane in his hand.
His cheeks was flushed as he looked at Eleanor.
"Bring this stupid girl back to me and I will talk to her!"
"Today is your birthday, Dad.You need to calm down.” Elian took a step forward to assist the elderly guy and then turned to face his wife.
Mrs.Tubman promptly pulled Eleanor away, who refused to fight.
"An unpleasant one or two!" Elliott was really enraged.
When he returned his gaze to Langston, he noticed that, despite the fact that the other person did not address him and departed immediately, it was apparent that those who had just interrogated him had no space for maneuvering.
Elliott made several concessions and pledges in attempt to persuade the Clements Clan to abandon their plans to annul the marriage.
The assurances amounted to little more than allowing Olivia to marry into the Tubman Clan without being mistreated, including Maggie, who had been bothering Leonard, which made the old man devise a plan to get rid of her.
Olivia's position could not be jeopardized by anyone.
With Eleanor's uproar, Langston realized that dismissing the strangers was a good idea.
Olivia may be embarrassed in public by what Eleanor did to her.
‘’What would happen if she were to marry someday?’’ he wondered.
‘‘Who cares about his daughter if she was genuinely harmed and the Tubman Clan was clearly protecting his own family?’’
As a result, Langston did not care if the situation was appropriate or not, and just responded, "Elliott, let us pretend what I just said did not happen."
Elliott did not respond with a nod or a shake of the head.
Instead, he fixed his attention on Leonard and whispered, almost as if he were sighing, "Little brat, you will probably realize how foolish you are when you think about this in the future."
Leonard was deafeningly silent.
Eleanor had arranged for the love note to soar all over the sky, and he was close enough to see it.
He was mocked by his friends who remarked, "Oh, you do not like her at all? Her parents are stunning, and they still gaze over you.They must be treasured!"
Leonard had always had a good face, and when he heard this, he instantly rejected.
As a result, he did not say anything the entire time.
And now he could not comprehend what Elliott was saying.
The incident passed swiftly, and the hotel waiter immediately swept up the papers on the floor.
The birthday feast had to go on, however how awful it was.
Furthermore, when the official birthday feast was conducted, all of the Tubman Clan's juniors were required to bow to Elliott in order to celebrate his birthday.
Eleanor enraged the old man and was compelled to return, so she was not present.
No one dared to get in Olivia's way this time.
Olivia had intended to thank Bruce for his assistance, but now that they had all assembled, Olivia remained prudently silent.
However, someone who was not frightened of death was looking for her.
"I have worked it out, Sister."
Maggie approached Olivia and sat in the chair directly in front of her.
"Sister, I will not go against you anymore” she said as she gave over a glass of wine and weakly smiled.
