Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot - Chapter 776

Chapter 776: 246: Two bosses compete in acting skills
 

Haruna Yukawa furrowed her brows tightly.

Her eyes were filled with a disgusted expression.

If this were in their Jaban Country, a good-for-nothing like Terrence Lentz wouldn’t even have the qualification to carry her shoes, let alone have the chance to appear at the same party as her.

It was simply disgusting.

What disgusted Haruna Yukawa the most was that Terrence Lentz, this good-for-nothing, actually deluded himself into trying to attract her attention by deliberately walking past her.

It was definitely intentional on Terrence’s part.

Otherwise, in such a large venue, why would Terrence specifically walk past her?

It must be to attract her attention using his face.

This good-for-nothing.

How could he dare!

She was a proud princess of Jaban Country, and only a shallow woman like Viola Thompson would be attracted to Terrence Lentz.

After all, in Sinian Country, there is a saying: birds of a feather flock together.

In a sense, Viola Thompson and Terrence Lentz were similar people.

Haruna Yukawa wouldn’t give Terrence even the slightest chance of delusion. She barely glanced at Viola Thompson and said, “Nami, come with me.”

The assistant immediately followed Haruna Yukawa’s footsteps.

Haruna Yukawa went to the other side of the party.

“Haruna!”

A young man saw Haruna Yukawa and immediately came over with a smile.

Haruna Yukawa recognized him.

He was the son of Jaban’s Prime Minister, Takuma Ito.

But Haruna Yukawa didn’t expect to see Takuma Ito at a place like this.

“Ito-kun?” Haruna Yukawa frowned slightly.

Takuma Ito smiled and said, “I thought I was hallucinating just now! I never thought I would encounter you here.”

“I didn’t expect it either.”

Although they were both from Jaban Country,

and Takuma Ito was the only son of the Jaban Prime Minister, Haruna Yukawa’s relationship with Takuma Ito was not very good.

Actually, the two were not strangers.

They grew up together since they were young.

Moreover, Takuma Ito had always secretly loved her, which left Haruna Yukawa speechless.

After all, she was the future Empress of Jaban Country.

As an empress, how could Haruna Yukawa possibly take a fancy to a man like Takuma Ito?

Takuma Ito had no talent at all.

“Maybe it’s what Sinian people often call fate,” Takuma Ito laughed, “Haruna, this is the fate between us.”

Fate?

She was a princess of Jaban Country.

How could there possibly be any fate between her and someone like him?

It was simply a laughing stock.

Disgust filled Haruna Yukawa’s eyes, but she still smiled and said, “You’re mistaken, Ito-kun. If we have to insist on the term ‘fate’, does that mean that every man at the party tonight has a fate with me?”

Isn’t that nonsense?

“Buddha said that five hundred glances in the past life could only grant a shoulder-touching encounter in this life. To some extent, their meeting with you and me is indeed a kind of fate.”

Haruna Yukawa really didn’t expect Takuma Ito’s shamelessness to go this far.

To be associated with her in any way, he could even say such things.

Haruna Yukawa frowned slightly and subtly changed the subject, “Ito-kun, when did you come to Sinian Country?”

She didn’t even doubt why someone with average abilities like Takuma Ito would appear at such a gathering of big shots.

“Not long ago,” Takuma Ito answered.

As he finished speaking, Takuma Ito continued, “Haruna, I know what happened. Although you failed the first test of Capital University, don’t be discouraged. Compared to others, you are already very talented.” Haruna Yukawa was the only recommended student in Jaban Country after all.

Failing the first test only proved that Haruna Yukawa’s physical stamina was not enough, not that she lacked talent.

It would have been fine if Takuma Ito didn’t mention it, but saying it now filled Haruna Yukawa’s eyes with anger.

She could have passed the first test smoothly.

Viola!

It was all Viola’s fault.

If Viola had just given her some of the pork, she wouldn’t have lost the match due to hunger.

At that time, Haruna Yukawa had a great chance of passing the game.

However, she didn’t eat much that day, felt so hungry that her stomach was stuck to her back, and couldn’t muster any strength. In the end, she missed a step, fell below, and even fractured her bones.

Viola must have done it on purpose.

She was just jealous of her identity as the princess of Jaban Country.

At this point, Takuma Ito said again, “Haruna, no matter what happens, in my heart, you will always be the best.”

After all, they still grew up together since childhood.

Faced with such a major setback in Haruna Yukawa’s life, he couldn’t just stand idly by.

Takuma Ito’s words sounded warm, but in Haruna Yukawa’s ears, they were extremely harsh.
