SIGNING IN: BEING SHOWERED BY HEAVENLY BLESSINGS FOR FIVE YEARS novel Chapter 920

Chapter 920: Chapter 918: MAINLEY BANQUET 6 – EATING MELONS ON THE SPOT

Tiana looked at the person causing trouble and didn’t feel like playing along with Gertrude, who had been causing problems for her for a long time.

She just wasn’t in the mood.

"Grandfather, how about we see what sister Tiana gave you?"

"Yes, all gifts have been opened. Let us see!"

Chairman Mainley felt as if he had lost face the more he listened. However, since most of the gifts have been opened in front of others, he couldn’t show any favoritism.

If Tiana truly embarrasses him today, then he will deal with her personally later.

Hoping for the best, he opened the box in front of the audience and then suddenly froze, his gaze flickering with an unreadable expression.

However, to those who were watching, they simply assumed one thing: the chairman didn’t like the gift.

Even Tiana was not at ease as she looked at her grandfather, but she had tried her best. If he didn’t like this gift, then she wouldn’t know what else to give to him.

Those who were seeking the thrill found this a perfect moment to hit Tiana when she was down, especially Gertrude.

"Heh, I feel very embarrassed on her behalf!"

"Just look at the Chairman’s expression?"

Gertrude was the happiest. She looked at Tiana mockingly and said, "Tiana, with how the chairman treasures you. Don’t you think that you are not being filial but shaming him on such an important day?" Her remarks, very unpleasant to the ears.

Ruby nudged Diamond, seeing the drama unfolding. "Sis, what do you think is happening?"

Diamond’s lips curled upwards upon hearing that and answered Ruby without looking at her. "I think that someone’s face is about to be slapped!" amusement in her tone as she looked at Gertrude, who was hopping up and down like a poisonous grasshopper.

Surely, Diamond’s mouth was like a crow’s. It didn’t take seconds before the chairman bellowed angrily, his target Gertrude.

"Young Miss. Show some respect. Remember that the person you are mocking is none other than my granddaughter. Who are you to dangle your little thoughts in my presence?" Chairman Mainley was very angry as he pointed at Gertrude, who had been doing nothing but cause trouble from the beginning.

"I ...." Not expecting that kind of harsh treatment from a respected elder, Gertrude flushed with embarrassment as she looked at the chairman.

She felt indignant. After all, Tiana’s small gift was so small and not even that much compared to what others had given.

Feeling very slighted, she mustered her courage and defied the old man. "Chairman, with due respect. I am trying to uphold ju_" but the old man didn’t let her finish at all.

He rose to his feet, slamming the armrest, which startled everyone, knowing that the old man was very angry.

Tiana maintained her cool and didn’t seem to be very fazed.

Ruby nudged Diamond with excitement on her face.

"Sis, it’s really happening!"
