Chapter 103: Teagan Parry
After half an hour, the car arrived outside the art exhibition hall. This exhibition was not small, with not only businesses but also government officials and private collectors from overseas who were art enthusiasts, among others. The location was at Akloit's sports center, which had previously hosted a concert by a famous singer and was considered one of Akloit's landmarks.
From the outside, this "turtle shell" semi-circular building had a distinct Western style. The layers of buildings converged together in a grand scene. As it was an international art feast, there were already crowds of people in the area.
Cheyenne finally found a parking spot and followed her grandfather Layne to the entrance. A young man dressed in blue security uniform stopped them in their tracks and asked, "Excuse me, do you have an invitation?"
The items on display at this exhibition ranged from calligraphy and paintings to jade carvings and antiques, all precious things worth thousands of dollars each. If someone tried to take advantage or damage any item here, it would be a huge loss.
Therefore, the organizers attached great importance to security work by hiring Leopard Security, the most famous security company, to maintain order. Most of these security personnel were retired soldiers with exceptional skills and high alertness; they were also preferred partners for wealthy men.
Kelvin's assistant Chris used to be one of Leopard Security's capable employees before he jumped ship over to Kelvin's side; Cheyenne didn't know how that happened exactly.
Layne took out his invitation card, handed it over to the young man who opened it up, revealing that Layne was actually one of judges for this event. Upon seeing that, the man became slightly more friendly towards them. "Hello, no problem with your invitation card. Please follow this aisle straight ahead and then turn left."
The entire exhibition hall was divided into six large halls where each hall had its own theme. Cheyenne stood on the main road with six different directional signs ahead indicating each exhibit hall name along with its respective theme.
Layne served as a judge for painting exhibits, so he had more important things to do and had to leave Cheyenne and Nora.
Before leaving, Layne reminded them. "Look all you want but don't touch anything without permission! Also, if you decide later that you want to leave earlier than I do, just go ahead."
"I'm not a child anymore, Grandpa," said Cheyenne sweetly as she hugged his arm and softly shook him, making Layne's heart soften.
"Alright, alright... you're still acting like a spoiled child."
Layne had left, leaving only the two of them, Cheyenne and Nora. Cheyenne got straight to the point and said, "You can see for yourself."
Now that they were at the exhibition, Nora didn't need to suck up to her anymore. She raised her chin arrogantly and said, "Of course. I'd be embarrassed to walk with you!"
Everyone in Akloit knew she was Kelvin's ex-wife.
The woman wasn't angry though; she opened her luscious red lips and lightly uttered a sentence, "He-he, you're really a wolf in sheep's clothing which burns bridges!"
And Nora hadn't even completely crossed the bridge yet, but she ceased to disguise.
Nora glared at her but before she could retort, someone behind her called out, "Nora? What are you doing here?"
The comer wore a white floral chiffon blouse paired with a gray pleated skirt. She wore white shooes, and had chestnut curly hair cascading over her shoulders.
Her heavily made-up face accentuated her features, making them vivid. She held a stack of promotional flyers in her hand as she walked towards them.
"Danielle! What are you doing here? It's such a coincidence!"
Danielle had come with her brother Teagan, and she had thought about asking Nora to join her initially.
However, the invitation allowed for a maximum of only three people, and her brother had a girlfriend named Jane, so she had to give up on that idea.
According to the Lawrence family's status in Akloit, Nora were not supposed to receive an invitation card? Then how did she get in?

Danielle was taken aback by the boastful tone in Nora's voice. She wondered how Zack Mitchell, Nora's grandfather who was a farmer from the countryside could know all this stuff.
Little did Danielle know that Nora actually referred to Cheyenne's grandfather, Layne Edwards.
"That's great! Let's go together then. I'll go say hi to my brother first," Danielle said as she dragged Nora towards Teagan.
Teagan had his back turned towards them, wearing light grey suit while his hair looked neat from being styled using gel.
He stood about 5. 9 feet tall which was neither tall nor short while having quite slim build type which gave him some sort of elegant vibe when seen from behind.
Beside him was a woman wearing a long, bright red dress, walking in high heels, her shoulder- length curly hair exuding an air of confidence and sensuality, giving off the aura of a powerful and strong-willed woman.
This is Nora's first time meeting Jane Berry, and she feels like she's seeing a real rich girl covered in luxury from head to toe.
"Miss Berry, Teagan."
Teagan couldn't help but light up at the sight of Nora.
The girl has a delicate and gentle appearance, with a pink and tender complexion. Her facial features are exquisite and beautiful, and her delicate makeup makes her even more attractive.
"It's Nora, it's been a long time. You've grown into a young lady."
Teagan is notorious for being a playboy. Before dating Jane, he had many girlfriends.
Nora remembers the first time she met Teagan when she was seventeen. She and Danielle were participating in a dance performance and needed to change into their costumes.
Danielle's clothes accidentally fell on Teagan's car, and Nora accompanied Danielle to the company to find him.
The office door was not closed, she stood outside the door and saw the intimacy inside through the doorway.
The female secretary stripped naked was pressed on the table by him, and he was taking the woman.
Teagan discovered the young girl standing at the doorway, and this excitement of being spied on aroused him even more.
After the woman beneath him fainted, he reached out and pulled Nora towards him.
Nora, who was still naive and inexperienced, gave her virginity to Teagan.
After Danielle returned with the clothes, she realized that Nora's face didn't look right. However, Nora refused to say anything.
Since then, Nora had deliberately avoided Teagan. She only breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that he had gone abroad.
She never expected to meet him again here after three years. He had become more mature and he also had a new girlfriend by his side.
Nora was feeling uneasy.
Looking up, her watery eyes stared straight at Teagan's face. "Teagan... you've changed so much too."
"Is that so?" Teagan walked over with a smile, and a glint of light flashed in his dark eyes.
