[ At EDSJ Five Star Hotel… ]
Richard, the CEO of Star Corp Entertainment, chose to hold the Star Gala Night in the hotel owned by his fiancé's family. Madam Priyanshi Patel also sponsored this event as the venue and catering services were all free.
Richard Chang would be part of their family soon. However, she could feel some resistance from other members of the Yan Family. Her Aunt, Madam Lu, was not happy with Nadia's relationship with Richard.
Madam Lu was the younger sibling of Old Master Yan. She thought Richard Chang was just after their family's wealth. Lady Nadia was the only remaining heiress of the Yan Family and the daughter of the richest family in Towerville City, the Patel Family.
If only they could find the missing daughter of Alyssa, she might be the one inheriting the wealth of Old Master Yan. Madam Lu doted on Nadia. She was hoping that once Old Master Yan divided his wealth, the portion he would give Nadia would be divided among her family.
Madam Lu thought that Nadia didn't need Yan's inheritance because the Patel Family was the wealthiest among the elite families in Towerville City.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince Richard wanted to impress and win the heart of Nadia's family, he invited them to attend the Star Gala Night. Madam Lu was a party-goer. She loved to attend parties like this.
The members of the Yan Family were already present at the venue. It was the largest ballroom area in the EDSJ Five Star Hotel that could accommodate up to Seven Hundred guests.
Nadia, Madam Priyanshi, and Madam Lu were now being entertained by Richard. Madam Lu's youngest daughter, Amara, also joined them. Just like her mother, Amara loved partying. Due to his busy schedule, Nadia's father was not able to come. He belonged to the esteemed guests but he couldn't make it tonight.
The invited guests were only four hundred at most. The venue was still spacious for everyone. There was no particular theme for this event. Everyone could wear any clothes they wanted to wear. However, the Ladies preferred to wear ball gowns.
Many actors, actresses, and artists from Star Corp Entertainment were present tonight. Aside from them, the most distinguished guests were the potential investors, sponsors, and film producers. They were looking for a suitable artist with whom they could invest.
Star Gala was not just a simple party. This would serve as competition for other actors and actresses to compete for their resources. They had to impress those investors.
"Is Johnson attending this party?" Amara asked Richard with her dreamy eyes. Johnson was the heartthrob of Star Corp. He was the most famous actor of this generation.
"Yes. He will be here in a while. He has a song performance," Richard replied to her query.
Amara couldn't hide her excitement. She tugged Nadia's hand while smiling from ear to ear. "Oh my gosh! I'm going to see my Ultimate Crush!"
Nadia could only smile awkwardly. She wanted to calm Amara down. "Can you lower your excitement, Aunt? You are fangirling over him. Please refrain from doing that. Many people can see you. Behave." Nadia reminded Amara about her actions.
Amara just pouted her lips and glared at her. "Don't call me Aunt. We are of the same age. They might think that I am already old!"
Nadia could only sigh helplessly. Amara was more childish than her. She just hoped Amara wouldn't make a scene tonight. She knew her Aunt. Once alcohol enters her system, she changes into another person.
When Nadia stayed silent, Amara continued bothering her. She pulled Nadia, separating her from Richard. Richard couldn't follow them since he was still talking to Madam Priyanshi and Madam Lu.
"Where are you bringing me?" Nadia asked Amara, feeling a little bit annoyed. Her Aunt was very hyper tonight.
"Just follow me. I saw sweet delicacies over there. Furthermore, I want to talk to you about something." Amara continued dragging Nadia to the long buffet table.
Nadia could only roll her eyes skyward while following Amara. When they reached the area where different pastries were being served, Nadia began asking Amara.
"What do you want to talk about?"
Amara let out a soft giggle and took a plate. She glanced at Nadia meaningfully and said, "Is she coming here?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Who?" Nadia didn't know whom Amara was talking about.
"The other woman. Your love rival!" Amara said matter-of-factly. She picked some cupcakes as she waited for Nadia's reply.
Meanwhile, Nadia's eyebrows were drawn together after Amara mentioned someone she didn't want to see.
"Richard has no other woman!" Nadia spat back at her as she defended her fiancé. She didn't even mention Abigail's name. But she already knew that Amara was referring to Abigail. She was the only woman being linked to her fiancé as of this moment.
Another soft chuckle escaped Amara's mouth. "Calm down, Nadia! I'm just asking. No need to get so worked up!"
Nadia pursed her lips, glowering at her Aunt. "It's your fault for ruining my mood. You are accusing my fiancé. He is loyal to me!"
"Oops! Don't get mad at me! I'm not your enemy here. I am your ally. I just asked you if she would be here. Just say a word and I will bully her for you! Who knows she is the one trying to seduce your fiancé!" Amara was looking for trouble. She wanted to pick a fight against Abigail.
Nadia's expression eased up a little after hearing that. She thought Amara was trying to provoke her. It turned out she just wanted to pick a fight against Abigail Scarlet.
"I don't know if she is coming. She might still be recuperating in the hospital. Remember… she jumped from the 13th floor of the Centerville Hotel."
Amara gasped, her eyes widening in surprise. "What?!! She committed suicide?! But why? Did Richard reject her and refuse to see her anymore since their illicit relationship was revealed to the public?"
Nadia chewed on her lower lip. She tried to control her temper. Amara was still insisting that Richard was cheating on her with Abigail Scarlet.
"You know what… just mind your own business." After saying that, Nadia turned around, leaving Amara alone.
