The truth has been revealed.

Auden asked people to change Lin Zhiming's painting, and also got a fake painting for Lin Zhiming, so that if no one knows, then Lin Zhiming will take a fake painting to give away, and when the time comes, Auden will take the real painting and slap Lin Zhiming's face, and Lin Zhiming will lose face.

In this way, Auden became the object of everyone's contempt and spurning for an instant.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became wrong.

"Oden, you've disappointed me!" Ryan Portman said, looking at Oden coldly.

"Uncle, this, this is all a misunderstanding, uncle, don't believe him, I, I was wronged!" Auden said excitedly.

"At this point, you still want to quibble?" asked Ryan Portman.

"Uncle, I have been wronged!" said Oden.

"It's okay to be wronged, just let you die completely. Lin Zhiming said, took out his mobile phone, and then clicked on one of the videos.

On the video, a blonde old man is painting, and the painting made by the old man is actually the one on the table at this time!

"This was filmed by Master Millsap five years ago, when Master Millsap was already ill, and he wanted me to help him record his painting process, so that he could keep it as teaching material in the future!" Lin Zhiming said, pointing to the product.

In the video, Millsap is explaining some painting techniques, and the time shown on the video is indeed five years ago.

Auden, on the other hand, had previously made it clear that he had bought the painting from Millsap eight years earlier.

In other words, what Auden said before was lying.

Coupled with the fluorescent powder in Auden's hand now, no matter what Auden said at this time, it was meaningless.

Obviously, Oden himself knew that he could not turn the tables again, so he knelt down in front of Ryan Portman and cried, "Uncle, I was wrong uncle, please give me another chance, I will never dare again." ”

"Why are you doing this?" asked Ryan Portman.

"I... I just don't want Natalie to marry a dragon country, she is a flower of our rotten nobles, she must marry our rotten nobles!" Auden said excitedly.

Hearing Auden's words, many people present looked at Lin Zhiming and Natalie.

To be honest, they didn't want Natalie to marry Lin Zhiming, as if the class flowers in their own class were soaked away by people from other classes.

From this point of view, they felt that Oden still deserved to be forgiven.

"You've let me down so much. Ryan Portman shook his head and said, "Zhiming and Natalie love each other, although Zhiming is not a nobleman, but he is also a powerful person in the Dragon Kingdom, no matter what, he is worthy of Natalie, and you, as a nobleman, actually used such indiscriminate means to deal with people, you have simply lost the face of the noble." ”

"Uncle, I don't dare, please give me another chance!" said Auden excitedly.

"So many people are looking at you and looking at me today, if you can be forgiven in this way, then our family will become a joke in the whole aristocratic circle, all of you present please bear witness for me, and from this day forward, deprive my nephew Auden Portman of all his positions in my estate, and his duties will be represented by my daughter Natalie, and take back all the fiefs I have previously given to Auden Portman. Ryan Portman said with a blank face.

Hearing this, Auden's face suddenly froze, and the people around him were also a little surprised.

Ryan Portman's punishment was a bit too strong, and he immediately stripped Auden out of his estate, which means that Auden has been in vain in his property for so many years.

Although Auden still has a lot of property of his own, Ryan Portman has far more than Auden!

"Uncle, do you really want this?" asked Auden with a stiff face.

"Yes. Ryan Portman nodded.

"Well, I see what you mean. Auden sighed, then stood up and said to the people around him, "Everyone, I am indeed at fault in this matter today, but I just don't want anyone in our family to marry a foreigner who is not a nobleman, I think this kind of behavior will disgrace our family, all my starting points are for the family, but since my uncle has made the decision to punish me, then I have nothing to say!"

With that, Auden turned and left.

Thousands of people watched Auden walk out of the banquet hall.

Everyone's faces have different expressions, some people think that Auden is actually doing nothing wrong, and some people think that Auden has gone too far.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please take a seat, I hope this incident will not affect your mood!"

Peyton, the chief butler, spoke at this point.

The nobles present looked at each other, and then everyone returned to their places and sat down.

The dinner party is officially begins.

However, everyone's hearts are a little strange at this time, and they always feel that today's come, as if Natalie has become the final winner.

Main table.

"Why don't you just ask His Royal Highness the Prince to check the authenticity of the painting?" Natalie asked Lin Zhiming in a low voice.

"In that case, how can we show Auden's ugly face more thoroughly?" Lin Zhiming said with a smile.

"Yes!" Natalie nodded, and after a few rounds of verbal exchanges, Audendo told a lot of lies, so that when everything was revealed at the last moment, Auden's face would indeed become much uglier.

"But why did you know that Auden was going to transfer your paintings?" asked Natalie.

"Let's talk about these things in the evening, now is not the time to talk about them!" Lin Zhiming said in a low voice.

Natalie nodded, asking no more.

In the banquet hall, as time passed, the atmosphere of the banquet slowly recovered from the previous embarrassment.

Thousands of aristocrats sat together eating, drinking, chatting about some interesting things, and everyone slowly forgot what had just happened.

Of course, those things just now are destined to be impossible to forget, and he will spread throughout the European aristocratic circle at a very fast speed after the birthday dinner.

Fortunately, before leaving, Auden attributed everything to the fact that he didn't want to see Natalie marry Lin Zhiming, who was not a nobleman, so that he could win a little bit of everyone's recognition and sympathy, and it would not make him the object of everyone's spit.

Halfway through the dinner, Ryan Portman slowly stood up with Natalie's support.

The scene fell silent all of a sudden.

Ryan Portman held a microphone in his hand and said to everyone, "Ladies and gentlemen of the dojo, first of all, thank you for coming to my birthday dinner, which may be the last birthday of my life. ”

"Father, you're going to be fine!" said Natalie excitedly.

Ryan Portman smiled and said, "I know my own body, I may not see the flowers bloom next year, but it doesn't matter, everyone will leave this world, I am no exception, I have lived long enough in this life, and it is wonderful enough, there are still regrets, but there are not many more." ”

Ryan Portman's words made many people feel his open-mindedness, although his voice was a little shaky and hoarse.

"I have one thing to announce here today, and I hope that all the nobles and His Royal Highness the Prince will bear witness to me!" said Ryan Portman.

Hearing Ryan Portman's words, everyone's faces turned serious.

"My daughter, Natalie Portman, will be officially engaged to Lin Zhiming from the Eastern Dragon Kingdom, and their wedding will be held on the 20th of next month!" said Ryan Portman.

Ryan Portman's words made the guests present stunned for a moment, and then the scene burst into warm applause.

Lin Zhiming and Natalie glanced at each other, both of them had already known the news in advance, so they were not surprised at this time.

"At the same time, I will also submit an application for knighthood inheritance to the royal family today, and when the royal family deliberates and approves it, Natalie, my daughter, will become the new Duke of Bauhinia. Ryan Portman continued.

The title of Duke Bauhinia has been passed down from generation to generation, and after the unexpected death of Ryan Portman's son, Natalie Portman should have inherited the title, so when Ryan Portman said this, everyone was not surprised, and Ryan Portman's physical condition was already very bad, and it was time to hand over the title.

It's just that it's a pity that Oden was originally a popular candidate to inherit the title, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen tonight, not only did the matter of inheriting the title come to naught, but even his position in the estate under Ryan Portman was deprived, which is like a chicken and an egg.

The birthday dinner finally came to an end with a blessing.

Lin Zhiming successfully got engaged to Natalie and is scheduled to get married next month.

Ye Shan, who witnessed this scene throughout the whole process, only felt that her brain was buzzing.

She really didn't understand how Lin Zhiming and Natalie got engaged while acting.

After all, it will be more than a month before the 20th of next month.

So, is it really a fake show?

Ye Shan's mind was full of doubts.

At the end of the dinner, Lin Zhiming and Natalie sent the guests out of the manor, while Ryan Portman returned to his room early to rest due to his health.

After all the guests were sent away, Lin Zhiming and Natalie were not in a hurry to go back to their residence, but walked around the garden in the manor together.

In the moonlight, the two figures stood shoulder to shoulder, looking like two young couples who had just been together.

There wasn't a word between the two, just spread out so leisurely.

I don't know how long it took for Natalie to break the silence first.
