Chapter 205 Eden Stop Drinking
Although there was an accident at the end of the wedding ceremony, the subsequent wedding reception still had to continue. As for how to deal with the accident, you had to wait until after the wedding reception.
As the Groomsmen, Eric and Andrew, greeted the guests and apologized for the shock caused by the accident.
As the main character of today's party, of course, Kerr and Tina couldn't be absent. Kerr, who had been caring about Tina, had planned to ask Tina to have a rest after the ceremony, but she insisted on coming, saying that she couldn't neglect these people.
And he also knew that she did this for his good. After all, most of the people who came to the wedding banquet were in the name list of the Guan city. She did not go to rest, but to earn his face.
After settling down the two people, Lily came down to help. She stood beside Tina with Becky, one on the left and one on the right. At this moment, Tina had changed into a toast dress, a pure white strapless dress.
When the toast began, Andrew and Eric also came over. They had to block the toast for the groom today when necessary.
Eric stood beside Lily. Before the toast started, he leaned his head to her ear and asked softly, "Is your waist hurt?"
He was still thinking about the wound on her waist caused by Hailey's kick.
Lily shook her head and turned to look at him with a smile. She replied in a soft voice, "It doesn't matter. Don't worry too much, okay?"
"If you feel pain, go and have a rest. We can handle it here." As he spoke, Eric put his hand on her waist and gently touched the wound across the dress. He frowned slightly and said, "The bump has become hard."
"All right." Lily held his hand and said softly, "It's just swollen. You can rub it for me when we go back tonight."
With worry in his black eyes, Eric held her hand and looked at her with pity. Then he loosened his hand and said, "Okay."
Seeing that he cared about her so much, Lily's heart was full of warmth. Regardless of how many people were watching, she quickly leaned forward, stood on tiptoe and kissed Eric on the corner of his mouth.
Like a dragonfly skimming the water, she left with a gentle kiss and stood as if nothing had happened.
The sudden kiss made Eric unable to react at first. By the time he reacted, the person in front of him had already returned to her original position with a straight face.
With a faint smile at the corners of his mouth, he really wanted to kiss back, but the time was not allowed, because the bride and groom had begun to toast.
Seeing this scene, Andrew felt a different feeling. He pursed his lips and felt bitter in his heart.
The first table was the one where the members of the Qiao family were. The reason was that Joe was an elder and Tina called him father, and the people who sat at the same table with them were also from the Gu family.
"Dad." Standing in front of Joe, Kerr raised his glass, which was filled with liquor. "Thank you for taking care of Tina for so many years, and thank you for giving her to me personally."
Joe's eyes were red and his voice was choked with sobs. "After all, our Qiao family always owes a lot to her. I'm happy from the bottom of my heart that she can find her own happiness. I hope you can really do what you said in today's wedding vow and treat her well all your life."
"Don't worry, Dad. Since I can say it, I can do it." Said Kerr.
Joe nodded with relief and turned to look at Tina, "Tina, I have told your father that you must live a good life in the future. If you want to go back to home, you can come back at any time. The gate of the Qiao family is open for you at any time."
"Okay." Tina nodded with red eyes.
"Dad, we propose a toast to you." Kerr raised his glass and turned to look at Tina. Then he said to Joe, "Since she is pregnant, let her drink juice to toast you. Don't you mind?"
"No, I don't mind." Joe raised his glass with a smile, "As an elder, I wish you happiness."
The three of them raised their glasses and drank together.
Then, Joe sat down. A well-trained waiter next to him filled up Kerr's glass, which was still full of liquor, and the glass of Tina was still filled with juice.
"Mr. Dillon." Raising his glass, Kerr looked at Dillon with a smile, "I'd like to propose a toast to you alone. Thank you for taking care of Tina all these years, and thank you for letting go of her."
He stressed the two words "take care of". People who didn't know the situation would think it was a word at first glance, but it sounded harsh to Dillon. These two words were too ironic.
Dillon didn't look well, but there was still a hint of smile on his face. He stood up and raised his glass, "Mr. Kerr, I'm relieved to have you take care of Tina. I've been treating her like a family member in the Qiao family for so many years. Please take good care of her."
relatives? Huh…
Kerr sneered in his heart. When he met her, it was after she divorced. If she was his family, why should she hide in case of being murdered?
What a liar!
"She's my wife, no one is allowed to touch her. Do you think I can take good care of her?" Kerr asked with a smile.
Dillon's face darkened and smiled, "That's good."
"Cheers! Cheers!" As soon as he finished his words, a glass of liquor was put into Kerr's throat.
Seeing this, Dillon couldn't help drinking. He raised his glass and took a sip.
After the two drank up, Lucia, who was sitting next to Dillon, stood up with a glass of red wine in her hand. She looked at Tina with a smile, but it was not in her eyes. "Sister, I propose a toast to you. I have done something wrong to you before. I hope you don't mind."
Tina raised her eyebrows and looked at Lucia, without saying anything in a hurry. She looked at her with a smile and said slowly, "Mrs. Lucia, when you call me sister, you really call me old. I'm younger than Dillon. Now I take father as my biological father, so we are brother and sister. What's the name of your sister? I should call you sister-in-law."
Her tone was soft and harmonious, but the meaning behind her words was quite ironic.
Lucia's face darkened. At the wedding ceremony, when Joe announced that he would give ten percent of the Qiao company's shares to Tina as a dowry, her heart was already full of resentment. Now hearing her words, she was even more angry, but she could not lose her temper.
She smiled and said, "That makes sense. It seems that I should change my address to you."
Tina curled her lips and her eyes were full of coldness. She didn't know what Lucia was up to, but she suddenly apologized to herself.
However, her mind was not simple.
Seeing that Tina didn't say anything, Lucia handed the red wine in her hand to her and said, "If you drink this wine, I'll call you sister. What do you think?"
When she looked up at Lucia, Tina smiled, but she didn't notice it. She said in a distant tone, "Lucia, you are supposed to drink this glass of wine. You called me wrong, but it doesn't seem reasonable for me to drink this glass of wine, right?"
This time, she called her by her name.
Hearing this, Lucia's face showed a sullen expression, but she controlled it well. She smiled and said, "Look at my memory, I really should be punished. I'll drink this glass of wine."
As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her glass and drank it up. Then she asked the waiter standing aside to pour the wine, and took an empty glass, indicating the waiter to pour it too.
Then he picked up two glasses of wine and handed one of them to Tina, "Sister, today is your wedding day. You must drink this glass of wine anyway, right?"
Tina's eyes darkened. She looked at the glass of wine in front of her. Logically speaking, although she was pregnant, it was not a big deal to drink a little wine, but she just didn't want to drink this glass of wine. Moreover, when she proposed a toast to Joe just now, she drank juice. Why did she have to drink red wine with Lucia?
"As you know, I'm pregnant and alcohol will have an impact on the fetus. I'd better not drink this glass of wine." Looking at her, Tina looked indifferent.
She was not stupid. After drinking this glass of wine, it was obvious that she had accepted Lucia's previous apology. She was a mistress who had destroyed her family and chased after her endlessly, trying to murder her. Of course, Tina couldn't forgive her generously.
Perhaps no woman in the world could be so generous.
"It seems that you are..." Before Lucia could finish her words, Eden stood up. He seemed to have a bad expression on his face. "Mom, I'll drink it for her."
All of a sudden, all the people at the table looked at him, and even the people at the next table looked at him strangely, because his voice was a little loud.
"You..." Lucia looked at her son in disbelief and was speechless for a moment.
Tina was also surprised. She didn't expect that Eden would stand up and drink for her.
"Eden, sit down." It was said by the Dillon. He frowned slightly and said, "Propose a toast to the mortal. You are just a child. Don't interrupt."
"Dad, today is Auntie's wedding. I should have proposed a toast to her, but she is pregnant and can't drink. Since mom proposed a toast to her again, it's okay for me to drink this glass for her, isn't it?" Said Eden.
To be honest, he was a little disappointed at his mother's performance today. Although he didn't know a lot of things between her and Tina, it was always his mother who did the wrong thing. And he could see that his mother did it on purpose today.
This question made him speechless. He could only look up at him. He didn't expect that he would contradict him today.
When she came to her senses, Lucia pulled Eden and asked, "You are just a child. What kind of wine do you drink?"
"Mom..."
"Just let him drink."
As soon as Eden finished his words, he was interrupted by Joe. He looked at Eden with a smile and continued, "You are sensible."
Since Joe had said so, Dillon and Lucia would not say anything more. They could only let him do whatever he wanted. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
