NovelEnglishChapter 114 He reached out to grab my wrist, and his eyes looked a s if they were burning. However, because of the crowd here, he only muttered, "Why do you have to be like this?" I was silent. I did not want to be like this here too, but I was mad.
"Cpass this gift with me." Seeing that I did not say a word, he restrained his emotions and spoke coldly.
"I don't think Miss Reed hopes to see us there together. Go and accompany her. I'll be there in a while." I flung his hand away with force as I finished talking.
However, he was gripping my hand so tightly that it hurt. He looked atand solemnly said, "Don't cause a scene." I was so angry that I was close to laughing. "Theo, do you think ofas someone who unreasonably causes you trouble?" As I was too angry, my voice was a little loud and the people next tostarted giving sideways glances. "Wanda, be aware of the occasion," he whispered.
I looked up and said, "I've never understood appropriate etiquette nor do I know how to be aware of the occasion. I'm just a wild girl from the countryside. I can't even begin to compare with Miss Reed." "You..." Theo's face got even gloomier and colder.

"Alright." I just wanted to leave. I forcefully broke free from Theo's grip and left with Tyler.
I did not look back at him. If Tyler was the devil, then Theo was someone scarier than the devil.
After walking a few steps, I realized the gift box was still in my hands. I told him, "Let's go say goodbye to President White." "You can go. I'll wait for you here." Tyler was full of smiles tonight. It was rare for him to be so patient.
I went to the second floor where President White was.
When she saw me, Petra smiled kindly and was still enthusiastic. "I didn't attend to you well tonight. Please forgivefor that, Miss Lane." I was no longer the sas before. I becpolite and courteous. "You're too kind, President White. Here's a little gift, to show our respect. I wish you a happy birthday and for you to be happy forever!" Theo was the one who bought the gift. It must be something out of the ordinary.
"Thank you, Miss Lane. You're very considerate." Petra received the gift. She kept an elegant and calm smile o n her face.
Grayson, who was holding onto Cindy and chatting with others, saw me. He softly said something to Cindy before walking over.
Cindy looked atand her face was somewhat gloomy. She turned and left.
"You must be Wanda," Grayson said as he arrived in front of me. This was a man of dignity. Although he was in his 40s, his figure was still tall and straight. He was an attractive man, indeed.
Seeing the kind smile on his face, my heart was shaken and I felt like could not speak Hexooked very familiar but was not at the stime. I could only nod and smile. "Yes. Nice to meet you, Mr. Louis."

This woman here looks exactly like you when you were young. There's sstubbornness in those bones." "I know. I had that feeling too when I first saw her. If it weren't for the DNA test, I would've thought that she was the one," Petra chuckled as she spoke.
"You're a pretty good kid." Grayson looked atand asked kindly, "Can I call you Wandy?" I nodded lightly. It fett like Nhad experienced this exact sscenaa long tago, especially listening to his gracious voice. It was like deja vu. "I heard you grew up with your mother. Is she..." Grayson was about to speak.
"Mom, Dad, both of you are the protagonists tonight. Don't keep hiding in the corner. Everyone's looking for you guys." Cindy walked over, reached into the crook of their arms, and said coquettishly.
Grayson looked atand apologized. "I'm very sorry, we're a bit busy today. I'll talk to you another day." He held Petra's hand and they headed toward the crowd downstairs after he finished talking.
Cindy and I were the only ones left. We stood in the corner where no one noticed us.
