The Billionaire Mafia
Engagement Day
A few weeks later
All the guests were excited to attend the engagement party. In addition to coming to meet the invitation, party events like this become their event to show off wealth, strengthen business relationships and add many relationships.
Despite only inviting no more than 500 invited guests, Darren's engagement party with Veronica is conjured up beautifully at the luxury Shangri-La The Shard hotel in London.
Tonight Veronica and Darren look in tune with their matching outfits. Veronica was wearing a mere black dress, which revealed her smooth back. Darren was wearing a black tuxedo complete with a bow tie.
The two walk into the ballroom with Darren holding Veronica's hand. Whispers were clear, they were talking about the woman who would become Darren's fiancee. Although not from among the people, but Veronica was able to reach the top of being a famous model with her own efforts. So some of them praised and judged if Veronica was very suitable if it was with Darren.
The voice of the MC who intruded made the atmosphere instantly become silent. The invited guests wanted to focus on watching the ring exchange that was about to take place.
"Maybe it sounds rushed in your ears. But this is the woman I choose to be my wife in the future." Darren then embraces Veronica's waist, introducing the lover with pride. "Because he's going to be part of the Hamilton Family, then whoever's making trouble with him, is going to confront me!"
Darren's words alone made Veronica stunned, she turned her head and looked at her lover full of question marks. But Darren only replied with a smile. What was said of course made Mommy Millie and Daddy Jack agree. Veronica is already part of their family, so anyone should not insult and demean their future daughter-in-law.
Not without reason Darren said so, because he could see the gaze of some invited guests who did not like Veronica. And also a man who was blatantly jealous of her. Cade. The man had invited him to think again in the future when he wanted to find trouble with her, by approaching Veronica.
Everyone present seemed to agree. They also do not want to find trouble with the future wife of Mr. Darren who is an assistant and the right hand of trust of Mr. Arthur, because it is tantamount to suicide.
Before the exchange of rings, Daddy Jack gave a welcome to the invited guests who had been willing to attend the engagement party of his eldest son. The next minute, the MC returned and began the ring exchange process.
A loud applause filled the Ballroom. Moreover, Darren ended the ring exchange by kissing Veronica's forehead. Just a quick look at it they can already deduce how much the man loves his woman. So in the future they will never want to intersect with the Hamilton Family and the Romanov Family or other families allied with the Romanov Family.
The event continues with guests welcome to enjoy the wide variety of snacks available. Clad with a soft saxophone in the ear, they choose to talk while eating snacks.
"Hey As, what's wrong with you? You look different lately." Elden joined together with Austin, taking one available bar seat.
Austin stopped sipping his drink and looked at his friend and cousin with a deep frown on his forehead. "Nothing's different, I'm still what I used to be."
Elden shook his head quickly, he immediately refuted. "No. You've been different lately. Is something bothering you?" tanyanya. Because for as long as he knows, Austin is not a man who is good at silence. I prefer to live rather than enjoy solitude.
"A lot of what I think, one of them is work," he said, again sipping wine.
As if understanding, Elden nodded. He looked around for a moment. Found the figure of Jolicia with her cousin sisters, she immediately remembered something.
"Lately I've rarely seen you with Licia. Are you guys having any problems?"
The movement of Austin's hand that wanted to gulp his drink back stopped instantly. Then he followed Elden's line of sight. "No" the answer is spontaneous. "I'm busy at the company and he's busy at college too." Indeed, this past month he and Jolicia rarely met, because of the busyness of each.
But it really felt weird, Elden didn't believe it just like that. He had to dig deeper. "I thought he already had a lover, so you can't spend as much time as before."
Mum. Austin refused to answer. I don't know, he just didn't want to find out.
"You'd better leave me alone, El. You talk too much!" ketus. He wanted to enjoy the solitude, but since then Elden has always disturbed him.
Elden shrieking. If Austin had already let out an aura of hostility, then the only move he used was to escape.
"All right, I'll join the others" he said. "Don't drink too much." Patting Austin on the shoulder, Elden immediately stepped away.
He saw the figure of Jolicia who was chatting. If only at that time, he had not gotten out of control, perhaps Jolicia was still clinging to him. Just because of that jerk guy named Maxime, Jolicia doesn't trust him.
"Fucking!!" Austin jerked his crystal glass on the table, giving rise to a small tremor. In a fit of annoyance, he left the bar table and soon passed. Not to join the others, the step was to leave the Ballroom.
And Austin's departure from the party caught the attention of the jolicia who were having sex. He refrained from looking back at Austin. Blame the man for causing trouble. It was clear Maxime only helped himself from delinquents who wanted to tease him. But Austin thinks nothing of Maxime.
"As, you're still stubborn" he murmured. Still fresh in his memory when Austin beat Maxime brutally and resulted in Maxime having to get treatment in the hospital.
No one knows their problem, because both of them close the problem well. They do not want to feel awkward when they gather. Just because of a misunderstanding two weeks ago, made his relationship with Austin a distant one.
"As, Maxi just helped me. He never meant to be evil to me!" Jolicia screamed, pushing Austin's shoulder back in preparation to deliver a blow to Maxim.
"I know what kind of man he is!" austin continued to insist on his assessment. He has no proof, but sooner or later he will get his proof.
"Here you go, I don't want to fight with you!" Jolicia closed her eyes briefly. Just now he had a shock attack from some delinquent who wanted to harass him as well as Austin's anger.
"I'm not fighting you! I just want to get rid of this motherfucker!" While pointing at Maxime who was grimacing in pain from receiving a few blows from him.
"But he's my friend! Maxi's a good man!" Jolicia insists on defending Maxime.
"Don't be so naive and stupid, Licia! You haven't known him too long!" Austin disliked Maxime so much, from his aura alone there was something the man was hiding.
"I'm not naive and stupid!!" Of course he doesn't accept. His voice trembled slightly as he was offended by Austin's words.
"All right, it's up to you. I warned you!" Austin doesn't want to know anymore. He was very disappointed with Jolicia who preferred to defend other men. "Don't come to me if my words prove true!" After saying that, Austin immediately waltzed away from there.
Jolicia could only stare at Austin's distant back. "Why is it like this?" mumbled wailing. Of course he was sad when he saw the flash of anger and disappointment Austin to him.
"Eugh...." Maxime's moaning resuscitated Jolicia. The woman immediately approached Maxime. "You'd better get to the hospital. I'll keep you company." Then he helps Maxime to stand up, getting Maxim into his car.
