"Your invitations are very fancy. It's a shame to miss" Roxena said with her flat face. The two shook hands, Roxena did not release her hand from Gerald's arm.
"Hahaha .. You are too low. This was nothing compared to the Lawrence family," the crisp laughter of the ESA Group's President.
Roxena pulled the corner of her lips. That sounds like a sneer to him. "really. This luxury is far from the simplicity of the Lawrence family" Roxena said.
The House Master's face looked dark. For a moment, he smiled broadly. Then he said, "You're good at joking."
"Yes." Yeah."
"Huh? Hahahaha this gala dinner will be more lively because of your presence and also …."
The host looked at Gerald who was busy cursing the host inwardly.
Toadeater.
"Gerald, my husband."
"Sorry, President Lawrence. I don't know him when you've been married for a long time. By the way when will you host the wedding and also the party of your appointment to be President? I'm looking forward to your invitation. Maybe other guests think so too."
Licking and provoking. The host is clearly looking for trouble.
"We're both very busy, there's no time for a party." Gerald replied. Roxena gave him a quick glance and smiled. Agree with Gerald's answer.
"Ah? Hahaha totally. Then please enjoy the show, Mr and Mrs. I'll greet other invited guests" said the Host.
Roxena nodded briefly. The host then greets the other guests. At first glance, his guests were influential people. Just like the data Erin gave.
"Good night, Mr and Mrs Lawrence," said a guest, middle-aged and carrying a strong impression of authority.
Chairman of Luz Group, a manufacturing company. Luz Group is a rival of Lawrence Group. The company is always competing on any project. However, they rarely win, especially since Roxena entered Lawrence. They are like shadows but their strength cannot be underestimated.
"Night, Mr. Luz," said Roxena.
"It's nice to meet you both. By the way, how's your dad doing?"ask Mr. Luz cheerfully.
"Good."
"He is truly blessed. Given a daughter and son-in-law were perfect. I'm really envious."
Mr. Luz is a little bitter. "You're too low."
Roxena remained on her flat response. Indeed he is arrogant but he has to serve these influential people a little with manners.
Gerald was uncomfortable with the conversation he did not understand whispering to Roxena, "I'll sit down. You please continue to talk."
"Take care of yourself." Roxena should remain vigilant in the women present. There was still an interested look at Gerald. Her husband's good looks are hard to miss.
Gerald nodded briefly. Roxena doesn't just let go of Gerald, she tells Erin to accompany Gerald.
"My husband is not a businessman, Mr. Luz. He feels dizzy hearing our talk."
"Although not a businessman, your husband is a Professor of medicine. It was an honour in itself and the courage to take a difference" said Mr Luz.
Usually business families will establish relationships with other business families to increase strength. Roxena is married to a doctor.
"By the way, you're brave enough to take extreme measures."
Roxena raised her eyebrows. It's starting to go deep. "Under your leadership, Lawrence Group is really showing a new face."
"You're really paying attention to the Lawrence Group." Roxena took the drink brought by the waiter.
"It seems that there will be a change in the business circle of this country. I hope it will be profitable for all existing companies." Mr. Luz spoke with an inside look.
"For the time being, the two companies became rivals. If there's a chance, before I step down, I'd like to have some cooperation between us" Mr. Luz said seriously.
"Let destiny answer." Roxena answered.
"The star today is not just the heir to ESA Group. However, also the representatives of the kingdom. Who do you think will be sent?"
Roxena. This old man beside him was talkative and pretentious. He's pissed.
"Well! ESA Group is absolutely amazing. Looks like they want to climb up. And the government seems to be supporting them. How, President Lawrence? I heard Lawrence Group was wary of them."
Mr. Luz said after seeing the escorting party open the road. A woman who was about 25 years old, wearing a blue dress appeared among the group of different burly bodyguards.
"That's the princess!!"
"The kingdom really sent the Princess? ESA Group is absolutely amazing."
The host smiled hearing that. He welcomed the royal princess. Friendly and well-mannered. "Welcome to ESA's family home, Lady Stella."
"Thank you for your invitation, Uncle."
"Uncle? Whoa-wah." Mr. Luz clucked.
"Greetings, Lady." Mr. Luz and the other guests saluted. Lady Stella is the only princess of the kingdom. The second son of the king and queen now.
"Don't talk this way. Think of me as you are."
"You're wise, Lady."
Roxena silently turned the lazy eyeball. The royal courtesy he was fed up with in his real life. Wearing masks and expressing differently.
"Miss Roxena, we can finally meet again after all this time."
"Greetings, Lady."
However, his status was inferior to that of the royal family. Yes, although there is still a kinship. But, it was quite far away and seemed to disappear after the death of the mother.
"Thank you for the attention of the Lady. My husband is here. For the wedding, please wait for the news."
He hasn't changed. Respect but disrespect me!
"Lady, it's getting night. Host, the core of the day event has not yet been implemented. What else are you waiting for?" Bravely interrupted Lady Stella who was about to say, asking the Host.
Lawrence Roxena!! The princess was furious. However, he should still smile gracefully.
"Please start, Uncle."
"good. Okay, Lady."
The host starts the core event. He first made a welcome word. Say thank you and then call someone. "Lady, Ladies and Gentlemen, I am proud to welcome and announce that my son Jonathan Esca will be President of ESA Group in my stead."
A big applause. The figure of the man in white was present among them. Jonathan Esca is the only son of ESA Group. His body is firm and perfect. The parents who still have unmarried daughters seem to have a desire to offer a marital relationship.
Roxena walked over to Gerald and Erin.
Gerald is currently playing the game on his phone. This show is boring for him.
While Erin was busy recording things that were important in her mind.
"It seems we have to have a wedding" said Roxena, who surprised Gerald.
"I don't have time for that!"
"Your time can be set. It was me who had a hard time adjusting the schedule," Roxena grumbled back at Gerald's insistence.
"When is this over? The music is deafening." Gerald is not happy to be in a place full of noise and also people who wear masks. He likes peace and quiet.
"Maybe in 15 minutes" Roxena said. She is currently watching ESA Group's family interactions with Lady Stella. Anticipate. Looking for something that might be hidden.
"In this wonderful opportunity, I want to convey my good intentions. I would like to express my desire to go to a more serious level."
"Is this turning into a place of application?" Mr. Luz apparently approached Roxena after noticing Roxena was not next to him.
"Do you think this is gonna be a good thing or bad news, Mr Luz?"ask Roxena.
"Of course." After answering that, Jonathan continued his words. He knelt in front of Lady Stella. Opening the ring box contains a ring with a very beautiful jewel.
"Lady Stella, are you willing to marry me?"
This surprised the guests. It is not suspected that Jonathan has a serious relationship with Lady Stella. And come to think of it, there's no news or information about Lady Stella's relationship or engagement. The woman is still alone.
Lady Stella was stunned. He stared in shock at Jonathan who was still faithfully kneeling. The host smiled proudly. It would be a pride if it could be part of the core of the kingdom. And of course their social status will increase and will be far above other families, especially Lawrence Group.
"Honestly, Lady. Since our first meeting, I've fallen in love with you. When I was abroad I thought this feeling would disappear. But in fact, it is growing. With the courage I gathered, I ventured to propose to you. Did you accept my proposal, Lady?"
ESA Group is a well-rounded financial company. They are comparable to Lawrence Group. Build a good relationship with them.
Lady Stella took out her hand. Smiling softly, "honestly I am shocked, Young Master. However, I also have the same feeling as you."
Jonathan's face was beaming. Immediately pin the ring on Lady Stella's finger.
"Congratulations, Lady. Congratulations Young Master Jonathan!"
"It's getting interesting." Mr. Luz again commented.
"You are very attentive to many things, Mr. Luz," Roxena said.
"of course! However, this Host is really haughty!"furious Mr. Luz later. It seems to have deliberately made this very lavish arrangement, showing that they came out rich in money as well as reputation.
"Be careful your loan application will not be accepted."
Mr. Luz clucked to hear it.
"Do you not want to form a new subsidiary?"ask Mr. Luz.
"Financial and insurance changes are growing rapidly lately. I heard there's a similar company you acquired."
"God! Why don't you just change fields? Newspaper companies are also growing rapidly lately" Roxena said.
"Haha. You're kidding." Mr. Luz replied and did not speak again.
"Let's go home." Roxena's up. He's tired of it here. Gerald also looked sleepy.
"See you later, President Lawrence. Don't forget our conversation!"
Roxena ignored. Gerald and Roxena went back hand in hand and Erin kept behind.
"President Lawrence." The host greeted back as the three approached.
"We have other business. Can't keep up with the show until it's over" Roxena said.
"President Lawrence? Roxena Lawrence, right?" Jonathan asked. Lady Stella was not at Jonathan's side, she was talking to another guest.
"It's nice to meet you."
Raising hands to shake hands.
"It's nice to meet you." Unpredictably, it was Gerald who returned the handshake.
Roxena just glanced.
Then look at Jonathan's appearance.
Got it!
