You Here

“Dad, should we not go out to greet our guests since they’ve traveled so far. It seems only polite rather than just waiting up here,” Nadia suggested, aiming to make a strong initial impression.

Recognizing the significance of the guest’s stature, whether due to their influence or abilities, she was aware of the importance of not appearing negligent.

After considering her suggestion, Ashton agreed.

“Nadia, you always think of everything!” Her three brothers and Wilbur praised her.

Westley saw no reason to object. Given that Simon would be accompanying the boss, his presence was necessary. He would have gone out whether Ashton decided to or not.

Together, the six of them stood and left the main table.

Ashton then encouraged all the other attendees to join them.

This meal was not merely a social gathering but a demonstration of the Morgan family’s extensive reach and

influence.

The assembled guests were equally keen to meet the highly spoken–of visitor.

A prominent group began to move together towards the entrance, their collective presence catching the

attention of everyone around.

“Who could possibly deserve such an elaborate entrance?”

The murmurs spread quickly as more influential attendees from outside the banquet joined the procession, swelling their numbers.

Before long, the entire front of the Phoenix Palace was overflowing with people. A crowd of hundreds–each one

a prominent figure–had gathered in a long line, all waiting to greet the arriving guest.

The manager of the Phoenix Palace wasted no time reaching out to every connection they had–both in the underworld and the upper circles–to see if some major global figure had quietly made their way to Baimsa.

Such a turnout was extraordinary; not even the city’s mayor would command such attention.

All gazes were drawn towards the horizon, filled with eager anticipation.

Even bystanders paused to observe the spectacle.

In no time, the entrance was encircled by layers of onlookers, leaving a clear pathway down the center.

Ashton placed a reassuring hand on Nadia’s shoulder and said with conviction, “Nadia, the future of our family

rests with you.”

“Take it easy, Nadia. Just be your natural self. You can handle this.” Her brothers cheered her on.

The stakes were high for the Morgan family at this juncture.

“Let’s all stay calm. We’ve done everything right; I’m confident it will all work out,” Wilbur said, trying to ease the tension.

Ashton agreed with a nod. “Indeed.”

The gathering was quickly becoming a major event, with nearly half of Baimsa’s elite present and more on their way. It seemed as though destiny itself was supporting the Morgan family.

Then, a sleek black sedan made its way into view.

“That’s the boss’s car!” Westley identified immediately.

A wave of excitement swept over Ashton and his group. They had finally arrived.

“Come on, let’s get to the front,” Ashton instructed, quickly taking the lead.

The area was dense with influential figures. Ashton was acutely aware of the importance of a good first impression; he couldn’t afford to let anyone else overshadow them. He needed to be the first to engage with the guest.

At Ashton’s command, Wilbur and the others made their way through the crowd, positioning themselves strategically at the likely stopping point of the car.

“Stand here. This spot will be where the car stops. Nadia, make sure you’re ready to open the door. Remember, important guests usually sit in the back, so be careful not to open the wrong side,” Ashton said meticulously.

“Understood, Dad,” Nadia responded, her gaze locked on the approaching vehicle…

“Make sure you all show proper respect when you greet her.” Ashton reminded his sons and Wilbur sternly, not pleased with their earlier demeanor at the dinner table. They couldn’t afford any missteps in such a critical

moment.

After receiving firm assurances from William, Cullum, Bobby, and Wilbur, Ashton felt a bit more relaxed.

Under the watchful eyes of hundreds, including the six at the forefront, the luxury sedan smoothly approached

and halted.

As expected, the vehicle stopped precisely where Ashton had indicated.

“Nadia, go ahead!” Ashton signaled with a nod.

Nadia quickly moved to the rear door, opening it with a welcoming smile. “Welcome, ma’am. I’m Nadia Mor…”

Suddenly, she stopped mid–greeting.

Ashton was baffled. What had made her stop? Why wasn’t she continuing?

William, Cullum, and Bobby noticed Nadia’s fixed gaze and stiff posture. They began to whisper frantically, “Nadia, finish your introduction!”
