Chapter 121

Amidst the work and final corrections, night fell

The grand event hall of the company began to fill with all the guests.

At that moment, reporters were closely watching everyone who arrived, paying attention to everything from their attire to the color of the invitations they presented.

Their reliable sources informed them that guests were divided into three categories: blue invitations for reporters and some celebrities, red invitations for millionaires and politicians, and white invitations for all the company's employees. Additionally, they'd heard that a special black envelope had been sent to an honorary guest, so they were eager to uncover that person's identity.

Thus, reporters began speculating that the special guest might be Elliot's secret girlfriend or George's new partner.

Among all this anticipation, Roger, Isabelle, and Sophia arrived, they stepped out of a rented limousine to give the appearance of being important guests due to their family connections.

"Is it just me, or do the reporters seem more anxious tonight?" Isabelle commented as she saw some filming them and others broadcasting live the arrival of all the guests.

"Wow... how exciting, I feel like I'm on the Hollywood red carpet," Sophia said excitedly, adjusting her hair as the cameras flashed.

"Tch..." Roger was seething with envy. He had never had an event of this magnitude.

The three headed towards the entrance to enter through the grand door, but....

"Good evening. May I see your invitation please?" asked the doorman, stopping their progress.

"How rude of you. Why are you asking for an invitation? Don't you know who I am?" Isabelle asked, frowning.

"Ma'am, I'm just an employee and following orders. Without an invitation, you cannot enter."

"You" Isabelle gritted her teeth as she hated being contradicted in public.

"Mom, calm down," Roger sighed and handed his invitation to the doorman.

Instantly, murmurs began, and some seemed to mock the fact that he had a white invitation, making it clear that he was no longer an important family member. "Please use the left door," the doorman instructed after verifying their invitation.

"The left door?" Sophia said, annoyed.

"You are employees of the company and should enter through there."

"How humiliating." Isabelle said angrily upon hearing how they were being mocked, realizing that they were now relatives of a mere employee.

"Let it go, Mom. We'll have our revenge and..." Roger started to say, but then they heard the crowd. becoming excited, and once again, the reporters seemed very enthusiastic. +25 BONUS

"Wow who is that beautiful woman?"

Who is she? I don't recognize her."

Wait, is she pregnant?

"Hey, wait... isn't she Roger's ex?"

"Yes, it's Deborah Anderson."

Impossible, she looks stunning.

"God, who is her stylist? She looks gorgeous.

Hearing that name, the three quickly turned to see her, amazed to replace that Deborah didn't look like her usual self. She was wearing a stunning long black designer dress with silver-beaded straps and black strappy heels. Her hair was slightly pinned up in a braid that resembled a crown adorned with white and blue flowers and leaves that mimicked the design of the bracelet she was wearing.

Next to her was Jayden, looking sharp in his tailored black suit, clearly happy and proud beside his partner.

Roger was astonished, unable to believe that the beautiful woman was Deborah. Instinctively, he glanced to his right at Sophia, who now seemed like just another woman, making him feel like the biggest loser of the night.

"That idiot.." Sophia was also consumed with envy because Deborah looked better. In her mind, this was simply illogical since she had the perfect body while Deborah was a walking whale.

"Good evening," Jayden greeted the doorman when they reached him.

"Good evening. May I see your invitation?"

"Here you go," Jayden said, handing over a black envelope.
