Chapter 91 The Scene was Awkward for a While
Cierra Boyle was speechless for a moment.
She stood frozen in place with her flour-covered hands.
It was a long time before she said slowly, “Then, what do I have to do before Harold Bernard-Barton will forgive me?”
Harold Bernard-Barton is still silent, makes Cierra Boyle more seems adorable and innocent.
After a while, the young man holding the glass of water suddenly smiled: “I forgive you now.”‘
Cierra Boyle was surprised.
She was stunned for a few seconds before realized what had happened, with surprised and uncertain, she asked, “Really? You’re not angry anymore?”
As she spoke, she rushed towards Harold Bernard-Barton.
Caught off guard, Harold Bernard-Barton’s shoulders had already been marked with two snowy fingerprints. He can do nothing about her willfully actions, only to allow her to wipe two more
marks on his shoulder.
After Cierra Boyle had calmed down, he spoke up, “Okay, this time you should learn a lesson and make sure not to worry everyone again next time.”
He spoke slowly and seriously, sounding as rigid as an old teacher giving a lecture in class.
There was still some flour on his clothes, and some had even fallen on his hair, but it didn’t seem to
make him look messy at all.
He stood up straight, with handsome features that resembled the pine trees in the mountains. Occasionally, some withered leaves would fall on the branches, but it couldn’t erase the sense of aloofness and coldness that came with the pine.
Cierra Boyle nodded obediently, “I got it. There won’t be a next time.”
Harold Bernard-Barton made a sound of agreement: “I’ll go upstairs, you can continue with your work. You don’t have to make too many dishes for lunch, just as usual will do.”
His tone was devoid of any fluctuations, as if he were an emotionless robot.
Cierra Boyle wrinkled his nose in response, but didn’t say anything.
Harold Bernard-Barton didn’t look at her again. The reason He went downstairs is to get water, but he haven’t touched the water dispenser yet.
Just as he was about to pour water, a sudden warmth covered his face, followed by the sensation of
flour being rubbed against his skin by her fingers. Cierra Boyle had used the remaining flour on her hands and smeared it over his face.
“Cierra…”
Harold Bernard-Barton had a helpless expression on his face, with a flower-covered face.
Now, he really had no elegance left to speak of.
At this moment, Coby Barton and William Barton had just come downstairs.
Upon seeing the situation, Coby Barton was momentarily stunned, but then smiled slightly.
William Barton, on the other hand, burst into laughter, clutching his stomach and pointing at Harold Bernard-Barton, nearly choking on his own laughter. “Harold Bernard-Barton, you’re such a dork, look at you now! I’m going to take a picture and send it to Jaquan Barton and F*nny. We can’t be the only ones who get to see the beautiful Harold like this.”
As spoke, he took out his phone and ran towards Harold.
“William, stop it.”
Harold Bernard-Barton couldn’t even be angry with Cierra Boyle, the culprit. All he could do is turn around to avoid the camera, rushing to the bathroom to clean his face.
Unfortunately, it was not only William Barton who blocked his way, even Coby Barton, who was usually cold and aloof, joined in with a smile.
The dining room was filled with laughter and chatter.
Cierra Boyle looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction, and joined the filming team with a smile
on the face.
The fierce battle ended with a defeat for Harold Bernard-Barton, but the four of others were also
exhausted, lying on the sofa with all their etiquette lessons forgotten.
However, it was rare that both Coby Barton and Harold Bernard-Barton, who had never liked to smile, had smiles on their faces and the flour on the Harold’s face had disappeared during the play fight.
Cierra Boyle glanced at Harold, using her cleaned hands slapped Harold Bernard-Barton’s shoulder hard. The flour rose in the air, blurring her smile.
“That’s right, Harold. Young people should have some energy. Don’t be like Jaquan, always with a poker face. He’s an old man, but we’re not,” Cierra Boyle said.
William Barton felt like he was being teased, he looked at her askew, “What do you mean, Cici Barton? You dislike your brother for being old?”
“I’m just speaking the truth,” said Cierra Boyle, feeling both guilty and defiant.
William Barton took out his phone and said, “I’m gonna send this to Jaquan Barton and tell him that
you
called him an old man.”
Cierra Boyle was anxious and rushed over to grab his phone. “William, are you childish? You are such an adult and you still tattle-tale like this. Even kindergarteners don’t tattle-tale!”
The villa was once again filled with the playful banter that only occurs among family members.
Meanwhile, in another villa somewhere in New York, people were busy to the point of being overwhelmed.
In order to create momentum for the alliance between movie star Coby Barton and the the Boyle family, Vanessa Foley had been busy making the scene in the villa look even more luxurious since early morning, with many drinks and food even more sumptuous than at Aleah Boyle’s birthday
party.
As night fell, the lights on the lawn gradually lit up, and guests began to arrive one after another.
The Boyle family invited many people this time, and publicly stated that they wanted to improve the relationship with their adopted daughter, fearing that they might not be grand enough and neglecting
Cierra Boyle and her movie star brother. Therefore, Vanessa Foley invited anyone who had even a slight connection with the Boyle family, and even invited those who had no connection.
There were quite a lot people who came.
On the one hand, many attendees came for the purpose of establishing a relationship with the Trevino Group and their businesses. However, it is often difficult to even meet with them, let alone establish any kind of cooperation. This evening banquet was a great opportunity for them, even if there was no guarantee of success, at least there was some hope.
Meanwhile, others were come to pursue a relationship with the enigmatic background of Coby Barton, regardless of his achievements in the entertainment industry.
Not to mention his current position in the industry, having won three Best Actor awards at such a young age, and they were all genuine awards without any gimmicks, which is enough to prove his
abilities as an actor.
Even if he came from an ordinary family, reaching the top of his industry at such a young age and
winning solid awards in the entertainment industry, he had enough potential to make a great future, which was worth getting to know him.
As for the Boyle family, not many people came for them.
Around 7 o’clock, Cierra Boyle also arrived at the Boyle family’s villa.
Stepping out of the car in high heels,
she was greeted by the various lights illuminating the villa, making it shine brightly.
She thought to herself, “Oh, quite the show they’ve put up,”
As Coby Barton parked the car, she linked arms with him and they slowly walked inside. Some people had already recognized them, and they were soon surrounded by a flurry of comments.
“Ms. Boyle is so lucky. She was taken care of by her adoptive parents, the Boyle family, for years, and now she has found her biological family. How fortunate she is!”

“Ms. Boyle is so beautiful! Her eyes are almost identical to Landen Birley’s, I believe they are real siblings!”

There were all sorts of conversations during the banquet, and even some female guests were fans
of Coby Barton.
Walking alongside Coby Barton, Jiang Yuan felt the grandeur of a top-tier celebrity for the first
time.
Fortunately, this was a dinner party and not a fan meet-and-greet, so the young ladies from each family were more concerned with maintaining their own reputation and didn’t constantly surround
them.
What’s more, the male and female host of the Boyle family also appeared.
Coby Barton couldn’t steal the limelight from the host of the banquet.

The group automatically made way, allowing them and the siblings to meet.
Somebody held a champagne glass and started discussing: “I heard that the adopted daughter had a
pretty unpleasant quarrel with their biological daughter last time she came back. This time, the
movie star brought his sister over, is he planning to make up with the Boyle family?”
The voice was not loud, but almost everyone in the center could hear it clearly.
These words playing right into Vanessa Foley’s hands. She put on a smile and walked towards Cierra Boyle, reaching out her hands to pull her..
She smiled and said, “Cierra, you finally came. Mom was afraid you were still angry and didn’t want to come back to see me. This must be your brother, you two look so alike. From now on we are a family…”
“Vanessa Foley, my brother and I came here today to clear things up, not to exchange pleasantries with you.”
Before Vanessa Foley could finish, her words were interrupted by Cierra Boyle’s cold tone.
At the same time, she also withdrew her hand and avoided Vanessa Foley’s action.
The scene was awkward for a while.
