Chapter 976

As she walked, she pondered for a good excuse to take her parents away.

After all, they hadn't been here for long, so they hadn't had the chance to try out most of the dishes on the dining table. If there wasn't a special reason, her parents wouldn't just leave like that.

She had to come up with a logical excuse that wouldn't arouse suspicion.

However, this type of excuse obviously wasn't that easy to find.

Just when Rina was getting more and more annoyed inside, Julia suddenly spoke up. "What's wrong, Rina? Why do you look so pale?"

"I'm—"

Rina looked up and was about to tell them she was fine. Then, she suddenly thought of something, and her eyes lit up with a fleeting light.

Right, my pale face can serve as an excellent excuse!

With that in mind, Rina smiled a little, but fearing that someone might catch on, she quickly hid the smile. Then, with a sudden change of expression, she gripped her chest where her heart should be, and put on a suffering expression.

Seeing that, Titus and Julia were both startled, and they stood up simultaneously.

"Rina, what's wrong?" Julia hastily circled around the table and walked toward Rina.

Even though Titus didn't say anything, the nervous look on his face was clear as day.

When Rina saw that they were indeed worried, a light flashed across her eyes. She knew her plan was working.

But this wasn't enough. She needed to do something more.

At that thought, Rina faked a discomforted scream, and she slowly crouched down on the ground, as if she suddenly caught some sort of disease and couldn't hold on any longer.

She really managed to trick Titus and Julia like this, and they were immensely terrified.

"Rina, what exactly is going on?" Julia was so worried that she was about to cry.
