Chapter 274
She was staring straight back at Vivien.
The moment their eyes met, Lucinda chuckled under her breath, then turned away to look for her brother.
As brief and unassuming as her smile was, Vivien saw it as an act of provocation toward her.
“Bitch!” Vivien cursed.
“Don’t worry,” Tess said, patting Vivien on the shoulder.
“She won’t be so arrogant pretty soon.
”
The pair exchanged a knowing glance and shared a sinister smile.
Soon, the ceremony started.
The Turner family had spent a lot of effort on the event.
In the past, they had included social activities like singing and dancing.
This time around, however, they wanted to give emphasis to the occasion’s main theme, so they had decided to hold a martial arts competition.
For most of the guests, it was their first time attending such an event.
They were eager to get the show started, and the atmosphere buzzed with their high spirits.
Two martial arts masters got on stage and readied themselves for a real battle.
The guests paid close attention and applauded with much gusto.
Seeing it all unfold, Mario was extremely pleased with his daughter’s ingenious idea.
The battle lasted ten minutes, with Babur Quinn as the victor.
The crowd cheered with all their might.

“What’s so great about watching the masters fight against each other?

Mr.
Turner, won’t you hear me out?”
Tess got to her feet and shot Lucinda a vicious glare, even as she addressed Mario.
The man himself was taken aback, but his interest was piqued.
“Pray tell, Miss Green, what is this suggestion of yours?”
Tess smiled at Mario before looking at Lucinda again.
“I head that Mr.
Simmons’ female companion is an accomplished martial artist as well.
She was purported to have defeated five men all by herself.
I’m sure a lot of people would agree with me when I say that I do not believe it.
Why don’t we let her fight against Mr.
Quinn here, to spice things up a bit?”
