Chapter 83 Opening Gifts in Public

The Swanns had a special license plate that was easily remembered.

When the car stopped, Bryan hurried forward to it.

The other guests were envious of the Swanns since Bryan welcomed them in person.

Bryan pulled the door open, and Liana put on her best smile to make an entrance.

Bryan’s face darkened immediately. His brows were furrowed, and his tone sounded distressed.

“Why are you here?”

Liana went out of the car slowly under the envious gazes of the other guests. She looked at Bryan

arrogantly and said, “Why couldn’t it be me? Thank you for welcoming me personally. I’m honored to be

at your birthday party.”

Bryan glared at her and snapped, “You wish! I’m not here for you.”

After hearing Bryan’s harsh words, the guests around looked at Liana differently.

The crowd began to whisper.

“I thought the person Bryan wanted to welcome was Liana, and I was jealous just now.”

“That’s an egg on Liana’s face. Queen Liana got her just deserts.”

“Queen Liana? Does anyone still call her that on our campus BBS after Catherine came to our school?”

Liana heard the gossip about her, and she trembled with rage. She gripped the hem of her dress and

almost tore it with her bare hands. She was about to step forward to scold the gossipers when she

heard other comments about her.

“That’s right, but Liana’s dress looked premium! Her family must be loaded.”

“Agreed. That set of jewelry on her must cost tens of millions. Her family is so affluent.”

“Did you see her dress? It’s one of the Haute Couture designs of Monored this year. Only the client

who spent the most at their shop has the right to buy it.”

The comments on her dressing improved Liana’s mood. Her efforts to dress up today paid off. She

thought the initial gossipers were just a bunch of dumbasses who were jealous of her beauty,

As the person he held the car door for was not Catherine, Bryan sulked and gave the crowd the cold

shoulder.

His face seemed to have a warning label that said, “Do not talk to me!”

No one dared to approach him.

Even David stood afar from Bryan and did not try to talk to him.

Bryan was depressed and having uneasy thoughts that perhaps Catherine had stood him up. He did

not liven up until he heard the rumbling sound of a motorcycle engine. He looked back, and a drop-

dead gorgeous figure was in sight.

Riding on the road in a silver-black motorcycle was a rider dressed in a black outfit that fit her fantastic

body shape.

Bryan was not the only one who was attracted to the figure. All people present locked their eyes on the

rider as well.

The motorcycle fishtailed, skidding steadily to a stop in front of the crowd. The rider turned the

motorcycle engine off before taking off her helmet.

Everyone gasped when the rider revealed her face. Their breath was taken away.

She was drop-dead gorgeous and cool!

David subconsciously wiped the drool on the corner of his mouth. He mumbled, “Oh, man. Catherine is

just incredible.”

Catherine wore a tight black leather jacket that fully showed her perfect figure.

There was vitality in her beauty. When her long leg swept over the motorcycle as she stood up, many

people could not help but scream in excitement.

Thrilled. Bryan dashed to her before stopping in front of Catherine, grinning like a child.

“Boss, you’re finally here! I thought you would not come.”

Catherine smiled faintly and replied, “I’d promised I would be here.”

“Of course, you will!” Bryan nodded vigorously. “I knew you would not break your promise. Boss, I hired

a chef to cook spicy food for you today. You can try it later!”

Bryan was like a child asking for candy, looking forward to Catherine’s response.

His birthday party was held for Catherine in particular, and it would be regarded as a successful party

only if the party could perk Catherine up.

Catherine

gave a little nod and said, “Okay. I’ll try later.” She did not refuse and even promised to try. That was

the biggest reward for Bryan.

Bryan was overjoyed and led Catherine into the house.

Catherine seemed more like the protagonist of the party than Bryan was.

Everyone watched as Bryan and his group of followers surrounded Catherine and led her

inside the house, their faces full of envy.

“Bryan is too nice to Catherine. I wish I could be her!”

“I envy her. Her clothing today matches her perfectly.”

All Liana could hear were endless voices praising Catherine, which exasperated her. She was well-

dressed and wore jewelry worth tens of millions of dollars, but people still valued Catherine and that

motorcycle more than her, Liana could not put up with that.

Liana stomped her feet fiercely. She felt that Catherine must have seen her dress up and wanted to win

against her by dressing like that. She thought Catherine was conniving and had deceived her.

The party officially started. Accompanied by Bryan, Catherine walked around the area to eat various

items and was ultimately a little stuffed.

“The food is quite tasty,” Catherine made a casual remark.

Bryan was so proud of himself and nearly jumped for joy when he heard Catherine’s praise.

“Thank you, Boss.”

Halfway through the birthday party, the guests got bored. Therefore, they asked Bryan to open the

birthday gifts and show them what they were.

Bryan was too happy at the moment to refuse any request.

Then, the gift-opening segment that everyone was looking forward to, began.

The rule was that the guests could voluntarily hand their gifts to Bryan to open them.

Bryan was a Duncan and had a high social status in Casier. Many people longed desperately to curry

favor with him.

In the past, gifts would be set aside in a pile and probably never be opened. It was a rare opportunity to

show their sincerity, and they hoped Bryan would remember them if he was impressed by their gifts.

One by one, the guests handed their gifts to Bryan. There was a wide range from high-end accessories

to the most popular action figures.

Someone even prepared a sports car as a gift for Bryan. However, all of these were nothing to Bryan.

He just thanked the man and put the car key down.

When it was Liana’s turn, she smiled triumphantly. It was her idea to have the gift-opening segment.

She had already found out what Bryan liked, and winning Bryan over would help her become one of the

Duncans in the future. She had to succeed.

“Bryan, this is my gift for you. See if you like it.”

Liana opened her gift in public and handed it to Bryan.

Someone recognized the gift and exclaimed aloud.

“Oh, my goodness. Is this the latest game Storm being developed? I’ve watched the trailer. But it isn’t

released yet. Why does Liana have it?”

The exclamation also drew Bryan’s attention.

Bryan loved playing video games. Storm was the largest and most acclaimed game developer in the

world. Even Bryan was one of its loyal fans.

A look of satisfaction flashed across Liana’s face as she enjoyed the crowd’s gasps. Her painstaking

efforts to get this thing was not in vain.

Catherine stared crossly at the game card in Liana’s hand. It seemed that the right time had come for

her to do a cleanup.
