"King of Diamonds." Viola glanced at her, and continued.
"Damn! Vio is good!" Diana Hershey showed the King of Diamonds in her hand to everyone.
Norma Augus calmly picked up a card falls near her.
"Vio, what about ?" Fiona Knight said.
"Ace of Clubs." Viola continued speaking.
Fiona Knight gave Viola a thumbs up with a smile.
Just as Norma Augus was about to speak, Flora Tiarks preempted, "Quick, guess Uncle's."
Viola glanced slightly, looking at the cards in Mr. White's hand.
In that mont.
Mr. White was a little flustered.
The mont Viola's gaze landed on his hand, he felt a tingling sensation all over his body, as if his heartbeat didn't belong to him.
Stronger than any other ti.
But Mr. White still has to act as if nothing happened.
"In Marcus's hand are all..." Viola paused deliberately here.
"What is it! Speak!" Flora Tiarks asked hurriedly.
Viola put on a standard fortune-telling pose, "It's the 3 of Diamonds."
Mr. White casually displayed the card in his hand on the table.
Sure enough, it was the 3 of Diamonds.
Marcus?
Hearing this na made Norma Augus even more upset.
She knew that all of Viola's friends addressed Mr. White as Uncle.
Why should Viola be exceptional?
Marcus?
Was she allowed to call Marcus that na?
How shaless!
Did Viola really think that if she was a little more beautiful, all the n in the world would be loyal to her?
In this life, she is only worthy of lending to Terrence Lentz's little bodyguard!
Norma Augus suppressed the displeasure in her heart and looked up at Mr. White.
Fortunately.
Fortunately, there was nothing special about Mr. White's expression.
For soone like Viola, it was not the first ti Mr. White had t.
A mont later, Norma Augus smiled and looked up, "Tammy, why don't you guess what's in my hand?"
Viola looked over, "2 of Spades."
2 of Spades.
Hearing this answer, Norma Augus's face changed slightly, although she didn't show it, she just said with a smile, "Viola, your mind-reading trick has failed this ti."
As Norma Augus spoke, she showed her card to everyone.
Nobody noticed that her other hand quickly placed a card under the seat.
The card in Norma Augus's hand was changed from the 2 of Spades to the 6 of Diamonds.
Looking at the card on the table, Diana Hershey and Flora Tiarks looked a little puzzled, "Vio, you guessed wrong!"
According to logic, Viola shouldn't have guessed wrong.
Viola smiled faintly, "It's all about fun. It's alright if I'm wrong."
Norma Augus's sneaky move was all under Viola's observation.
She just didn't expose it.
Because it was unnecessary to argue with such a person.
Norma Augus's actions ant they could never be in the sa boat.
Flora Tiarks laughed, "But, Vio, you're still amazing!"
"Average." Viola was modest, "World's third."
For so reason, when Mr. White heard this, a slight smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.
With no doubt, the following guessing ga turned into Norma Augus losing.
She perford a ballet for everyone.
Norma Augus, who had been studying dance for nearly twenty years, vividly portrayed an elegant swan. Soon, the air was filled with enthusiastic applause.
Her dance not only attracted the attention of Mr. White and others, but also the attention of other people attending the birthday party.
Norma Augus was very pleased.
She was sure that after tonight, Mr. White would surely have a deep impression of her.
Eight o'clock.
Adrian arrived punctually.
Viola was dragged off by Diana Hershey and Fiona Knight, along with Flora Tiarks, to look at good-looking n.
Initially, Flora Tiarks had no interest in Adrian, but she decided to tag along because not only Adrian was coming, but also a pop star she adored.
In a blink of an eye, only Norma Augus and Mr. White were left at the table.
Norma Augus laughed as she watched them leave, sighing, "Youth is wonderful. They still have the energy to chase after celebrities."
This comnt subtly implied that the girls were childish.
Only childish people would chase after celebrities.
When she finished speaking, Norma looked at Mr. White, "Did Mr. White chase after celebrities when you were young?"
"I'm still a fan of celebrities," Mr. White answered as usual, "It's just that the celebrity I like did not attend this evening."
Norma had thought that a business tycoon like Mr. White wouldn't have ti to follow celebrities.
His ti should all be spent on making money.
Little did she know...
Mr. White liked everything, except for hobbies that required spending money.
Norma laughed, "Actually, I also have a favorite celebrity, but I just don't have ti to follow them now. By the way, who's your favorite celebrity, Mr. White?"
"Declan." Mr. White answered.
Declan?!
Oh dear.
Norma didn't know him at all.
She had originally thought that Mr. White would na an international superstar, and then she could pretend to like them too.
That way, they would have a shared interest.
Who would've thought…
Norma picked up her phone and googled this na.
Quickly, a Google page ca up.
Declan, an early mainland perforr.
But due to a serious injury obtained during a film shoot, he quit the entertainnt industry to work behind the scenes.
After understanding Declan's general background, Norma continued, "Actually, I quite like Mr. Declan. Unfortunately, he withdrew from the industry too early."
It was clear that Mr. White had no interest in continuing the conversation with Norma. He only nodded without speaking.
Norma noticed Mr. White's impatience.
She knew that she couldn't continue pestering him any more.
Any further attempts to continue the conversation would only make Mr. White think she was no different from those superficial and vulgar fans.
She had to catch Mr. White's attention.
Norma poured herself a cup of tea and slowly sipped it.
To Norma's relief, Mr. White wasn't attracted by Viola. After Viola and the others left, he kept looking at his cell phone.
This suggested that Mr. White was not the kind of person who only cared about appearances.
What did Viola count as?
With that in mind, Norma scoffed in her heart.
At this mont, a young man approached Norma and tried to strike up a conversation.
"Miss, are you alone?"
Norma nodded, "Yes."
The young man continued, "May I have the privilege to invite you to dance?"
By this ti, there were already people dancing on the dance floor.
Norma smiled, "I'd be honored."
With that, she extended her hand to the young man.
This move also indirectly told Mr. White that she's single and that many n are pursuing her.
n are a very peculiar species.
They prefer to fight for what they can't easily get.
Soon, Norma followed the man onto the dance floor.
Once the dance was over, applause echoed in the air.
"Thank you." Norma picked up her skirt and curtsied.
Grace White walked over to Norma with a smile, "I didn't expect that you'd dance so well, Norma."
Norma modestly replied, "Auntie, you're teasing . I was just dancing casually."
With that, Norma's gaze fell on Viola standing to the side, "Speaking of which, Viola hasn't danced yet tonight. Why don't we let her and..." Here, Norma looked at Mr. White, "And Mr. White take the third dance! It's a good chance since Viola and Mr. White are acquainted."
Norma said all these things, betting that Viola didn't know how to dance
If Viola knew how to dance, she wouldn't have done a magic act during the talent showcase.
Now, Norma was eagerly awaiting Viola stumbling and accidentally stepping on Mr. White's feet.
