Lovely Substitute Bride novel Chapter 59

The banquet hall's entrance was noisy, and everyone stopped their actions and looked over.

Hearing Tina's voice, Tiana turned to look at Conor immediately.

On the other side, Tina had already forced her way in.

Dressed in a bright red formal attire, she raised her head and swept her gaze arrogantly over everyone.

A few people in the banquet hall quickly recognized her and their faces turned ugly.

"Isn't this... Conor's new love? "

"Isn't she being too daring? She knows the Conor's wife is here, but she's still so arrogant."

"The new love appears together with the old love. Tonight's show is really exciting."

A few people discussed softly. In an instant, everyone present knew of Tina's identity.

Tina could not see the deep meaning behind their gazes, but was instead satisfied that she had become the center of attention.

She raised her head, and found Conor in the crowd, and immediately walked over.

" Conny."

Tina directly held onto his hand, and said with a smile.

"Am I late?"

Conor frowned slightly, but did not push her away.

"Why are you here?"

"Didn't you tell me to come here?"

Tina retorted, and said "I heard from you that today is Uncle's sixtieth birthday, so of course I need to come."

The banquet hall was extremely quiet with no one spoke, but their gaze was fixated on Conor and the other two.

Tim, who was still standing on the stage, looked carefully at Tina.

In the past few days, he had heard some rumors regarding Conor.

But the marriage to the Kaal Family had been forced from the start, and adding that he felt that he owed Conor, he did not interfere even if the rumors outside were a little unpleasant .

Today, with so many of his relatives and friends present, Tina, who behaved so improperly, had caused such a ruckus on the stage, and would made the whole Johnson Family lose their face.

He coughed lightly and asked.

"Conor, who is this? Why haven't I seen her before?"

"A friend of mine."

Conor did not want "Tina" to know the people of Johnson Family, so he passed his words down lightly.

But Tina would never let go of this opportunity to curry favor with Conor's father.

"Uncle, I am Tina."

Tim glanced at her indifferently.

"Since you're Conor's friend, then just stay."

Then, he raised his glass and ignored her. "Everyone, continue."

After he finished the wine, it was time for his birthday celebration.

Tim thought that it was too noisy, so he left the banquet hall to the young man and went to the courtyard with his friends.

Tiana hesitated as she turned her head, only to see that Tina was about to pester Conor to dance.

At this time, Nathan walked over and invited her to the courtyard.

"Yuki, shall we go together?"

Tiana then retracted her gaze.

"Alright."

Watching the two figures that left away, Conor felt furious and pushed Tina aside, wanting to follow them.

Unexpectedly, Tina suddenly extended her hand out to stop him, and looked towards the direction where Tiana disappeared.

" Conny, just dance with me. Isn't my sister being taken care of by that Mr. Nathan?"

Conor's expression turned even worse. But she didn't notice it and continued, "I've never attended a ball before. When I was in the orphanage before, I didn't even wear a dress. I always dream of dancing with you in a ball."

The thing that Conor could not bear the most was Tina mentioning the past.

As long as she spoke of this, he would feel that he had not taken good care of "Tina" and made her wait for so long.

He retracted his gaze and helplessly gave in.

"Elder Linden, what is this?"

The man called Elder Linden stroked his beard and carefully opened the wooden box.

"A snuff bottle from in the 1720s! I spent a lot of money to get it! "

Everyone present was very interested in antiques and came over when they heard that it was from the Qing Dynasty.

The snuff bottle in the box was extremely colorful. Although it had a beautiful shape, it did not look like it was old. Instead, it looked like it had been made recently.

With hundreds of years of history, it shouldn't be so bright.

"Wait, Elder Linden, is your snuff bottle fake?"

"Yeah, this color is too bright. Doesn't the seller deceive you?"

"Impossible!"

Elder Linden was initially proud of himself, but when he saw them say that the snuff bottle he brought was fake, he was so angry that his face turned green.

"It's true! I got it in secret. "

"Have you looked for the appraiser?"

Elder Linden was startled and uncertainly shook his head.

"But I think it's true, it's true!"

But no matter what he said, the others just didn't believe him.

Elder Linden's face flushed red.

"Tim, you do believe me, right?"

Tim was in a difficult position. He had studied antiques but the snuff bottle in front of him, no matter how he looked at it, seemed to be fake.

When Elder Linden saw his expression, he angrily slapped the table.

"None of you believe me!"

He reached out to put away the box on the table, but a figure suddenly approached him.

Tiana leaned forward slightly, and revealed a gentle and shallow smile.

"May I have a look?"
