Translator: End Less Fantasy Translation Editor: End loss Fantasy Translation
Inside the restaurant.
When John opened rhe gift box, a furious expression appeared on his face.
Everyone else present was also dumbfounded, looking incredulous.
Freya Maya Phillips, and the others all turned their heads to look at Connor’s position, their eyes filled
with confusion.
Only Rubin had a smug smile on his face.
No one had expected that the thing in the gift box was just reishi mushrooms!
The method to distinguish the quality of reishi mushrooms was very simple: one just had to look at its
color. Wild reishi mushrooms were usually dark brown with a glossy surface, while artificially cultivated
reishi mushrooms would have a reddish brown with a dull surface.
At this moment, the mushrooms in John’s hand were reddish-brown in color. There was no luster to
speak of, and it looked dull as a whole.
“What is this? A wild mushroom?”
The middle-aged man who had asked John to open rhe gift box could not help but laugh when he saw
the reishi mushrooms.
Although the other guests were not as impudent as the middle-aged man, they were all whispering
among themselves.
John stood rooted to the ground with a dumbfounded expression. Other than anger, there was also
humiliation in his eyes because this matter had simply embarrassed him.
Although John was not as high-ranked as Brooklyn and Gabriel, he was still a big shot in the Phillips
Family. When had he ever been humiliated like this?
“John, don’t be angry. Perhaps this…”
Gabriel saw that there was something wrong with John’s expression and was about to persuade him.
However, John ignored him and walked towards Connor with the red mushrooms.
“Bang!”
John directly threw the gift box containing the reishi mushrooms in front of Connor, then glared at him
and shouted, “Connor, shouldn’t you give me a reasonable explanation for today’s matter?”
Connor turned his head and looked at John. He was speechless.
This was clearly a gift from Joshua. Now that he was complaining that the gift was not good enough
and came to ask for an explanation, Connor did not know what to explain!
“Grandpa, you must have misunderstood Connor. I believe that Connor would not do such a thing. If he
really wanted to be in the limelight, he could have called Christopher over alone. Why did he get
another actor?”
Freya stood up and shouted at John.
“Freya, get out of my way. This matter today has nothing to do with you. Let Connor come out and
explain to me!”novelbin
John gritted his teeth and replied in a low voice. There were so many people present waiting to see him
make a fool of himself. No matter how good his temper was, he could not control his emotions at this
moment.
“Grandpa…” Freya opened her mouth to speak.
“I told you to move aside. Didn’t you hear me?” John shouted.
“Freya, this matter has nothing to do with you. This Connor is really too much. He actually came up
with a fake reishi mushrooms to fool your grandfather. You’d better not care about this matter…”
Laura said as she pulled Freya to her side.
“Mom, there must be some misunderstanding. I don’t believe that Connor would do such a thing!”
Freya shouted excitedly.
Qahira had finally found a chance to mock Freya. She naturally wouldn’t give up such a good
opportunity and called out in a strange tone, “What can t a poor loser like him do to save face? Freya, 1
can understand how you feel right now. After all, didn’t my fiance lie to me too? Moreover, your fiance is
a poor loser who delivers food. It’s very possible that he would do such a thing!”
“Qahira, don’t talk nonsense there. Connor and your fiance are not the same kind of people!” Although
Maya did not like Connor, she felt that Connor did not seem to be a man who liked to be in the
limelight. Naturally, he would not do such a stupid thing.
“Now that we’ve caught him red-handed, why are you still defending Connor?” Qahira said playfully.
“Connor, I’ll ask you one last time. Is there anything you want to explain to me?”
John asked Connor with a trembling voice.
Connor stood there and hesitated for a moment, then said indifferently, “These reishi mushrooms are a
gift from Joshua. What Joshua gave you has nothing to do with me.”
“You’re still trying to quibble with me at a time like this?” John shouted and continued, “Am I asking you
about the gift? I’m asking you if that person is Joshua.”
“Yes, sir!” Connor nodded.
“Since it was Joshua Qualls, why would he give me fake reishi mushrooms? If 1 go to the roadside and
buy one now, it would be better than this one, right?” John asked with a ferocious expression.
Connor turned his head and looked at the mushrooms in John’s hand with a helpless expression. He
couldn’t understand why a big boss like Joshua would give a fake one to John.
Everyone present knew Joshua, so it was inevitable that people would think that he was a fake.

John’s words were also very unpleasant because of his emotions.
“Grandpa John!” Freya hurriedly shouted.

“John, don’t be so angry! Connor is still a child. Why are you being so calculative with a child?”
Gabriel couldn’t stand it anymore and frowned, trying to interject.
