Tina was startled.
Although many people were in the hall and no one paid attention to his little moves, she still blushed.
Amin was also looking at him with a surprised expression.
Then, they watched Wilson walk to a man.
The man looked familiar because he had just sat next to Tina. He went to the bathroom before the opening ceremony.
Wilson began to talk to him. However, most of the lights were concentrated on the stage. The area for the audience was dim, so Tina could not see them clearly. It seemed that they were chatting.
Then Wilson passed the third row and leaned overboard to sit beside her.
Only then did they realize that he was asking the man to change seat with him.
Tina and Amin were struck dumb.
.
They sat side by side, while Wilson sat on the other side of her.
Tina lowered her voice and asked, "Why are you here..."
Wilson said, "To accompany you."
She was there with Amin, so Wilson came to stay with her.
Yesterday, Wilson had a whole day's meeting and worked overtime very late, so they didn't see each other, but when he called her at night, he casually asked her about her arrangement today. Tina told him that she would be here with Amin.
But she didn't expect that Wilson would come.
Amin frowned. "But you are not invited to attend the opening ceremony today, right?"
Wilson curled his lips and said, "Well, I asked for a place."
He had a tight schedule, so he had no time to attend this kind of opening ceremony. Even if the orgnizer wanted to invite him, Irene would not hand him the unimportant invitation letter.
As he offered to participate, the organizer was flattered and pleasantly agreed.
As the lively opening song sounded, the opening ceremony officially began.
The opening ceremony with song and dance performances was about two hours.
Tina had been a reporter on TV for a long time and had worked for many such activities, but this time she didn't stand behind the machine. She didn't feel bored and enjoyed it on the guest seat.
But...
Tina straightened up, her back a little stiff.
When all the lights were focused on the stage, someone suddenly held her hand.
She was so familiar to the thick and warm palm.
Wilson, arm on the armrest, wrapped her hand in his palm hanging over the edge of the armrest.
Tina stayed stiff for a long time before she dared to sneak a peek at him.
Wilson crossed his long legs and looked at the stage with a faint smile. He sat there gracefully, seemingly focused on the performance as if nothing had happened.
Tina tried several times to pull out her hand, but she didn't make it.
She could only obediently let him hold it. To her embarrassment, Wilson would rub her hand from time to time.
Also, his coarse fingertips were gently brushing against her palm - he was hitting on her in all kinds of possible ways.
It was... too embarrassing.
Tina's heart was beating very fast, and the redness on her cheeks had spread to her ears.
Fortunately, there was a long table before the guest seats. Besides, with Amin on her right side, no one could see what he was doing in the dim light.
But Amin was at a loss what to do or say.
.
Finally, the opening performance ended perfectly in applause after a speech.
The staff members began to lead people away from the hall. The guests and the audience left from two different exits.
They were slowly at the back of the crowd.
When they reached the elevator, there were only three of them.

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
