    Sofia took a deep breath as she read thements online. Who would have thought that her grandmother would one day face


    thesements? Luckily, it seemed like her grandmother didn’t mind it at all. Sofia nced at the older woman who was sitting


    to her.


    Both of them were now preparing for Sofia’s birthday event. While Sofia’s makeup artist was doing her hair. Enda was doing


    her makeup. She had her eyes closed while listening to a podcast.


    “Stop staring at me or | would melt.” Enda uttered, her voice still calm.


    “The news about you are you not concerned about it?”


    “Why would ” Enda opened one of her eyes. “Doesn’t matter...” she uttered. “Do you truly think that the opinions of those


    people matter to me?”


    Sofia pursed her lips. It is not about other people’s opinions that worries her. It was the opinion of the shareholders.


    “Why can’t you just enjoy your day?” Enda said, smiling. “Whoever released that news wanted to ruin your day, and it seems


    that it was affecting you. Besides... today is your birthday and the one who will escort youter was still not here.....


    Sofia looked at her reflection. In fact, she was already getting worried as Alexander had yet to inform her of his arrival time. She


    let out a sigh.


    “Don''t tell me you have not received any updates from him?” Euanda asked. In response, Sofia shook her head.


    “Then call him!” Enda said.


    Actually, Sofia had debated if she would call Alexander. She did not want to impose too much on him. To Sofia, the man has


    helped her a lot. He was running a business empire yet he had always been there for her. She felt like she had yet to show him


    her sincerity.


    Naturally, she knew he was only doing this for the shares, but sti


    Alexander doesn’t actually need those shares to secure his position. She felt like their transaction was no longer fair to Alexander


    at all.


    Luckily, her grandmother did not pry anymore, and Karina arrived for her very own makeup and hair styling. Karina, Sofia, and


    Enda will be arriving at the venue together.


    “Happy birthday...” Karina beamed the moment she walked in. Then she handed her a small box. “Open it tonight. After the


    party.”


    “Thank you... you didn’t have to-

    For the next few hours the three of them talked about random things that fo not involve huxiness To Sofia curpirive, hier


    grandmother was actually knowledgeable in the field of gossip! She knew who was sleeping with whom theating with their


    husbands and wives and many others


    For a while. Sofia was able to rx and pastugh


    The moment they finished their makeup, it was already four in the afternoon. Sofia needed to do a few more photo shoots before


    the party started at six

    Sofia shoo bead. Then she smiled. “Hey | had just gotten single. Why can’t | just enjoy it on my birthday!” Still, she was a little


    droppointed that Alexander would not be able to make it on time. However, she understood that he was busy with his jo


    Besides was not a part of his responsibility at all.


    Son enough, the trio arrived at the venue of the event, and justas they expected, those who were invited were already there


    waiting for them


    The venue was super fancy, like those ces you see in movies. Everything was all ck and gold, shiny and sparkling The


    walls were draped in these ssy fabrics, and fancy chandeliers were hanging from the ceiling. The atmosphere was rather


    posh, something that she already expected as her grandmother personally involved herself in this event.


    In the muddle of the room there was this massive cake, standing six feet tall It was all decked out in ck and gold too.


    utching the theme On top of the cake, there were 26 candles all lit up, making it look like a birthday dream.


    The tables were all set with fancy ck and gold tablecloths, and there were these cool centerpieces that looked like golden


    sculptures The whole ce had this vibe like. Wow I’m in some ritzy party


    As Sofia walked in, she couldn''t help but feel a bit overwhelmed by how extravagant everything was. It was like stepping into a


    whole different world. People were already there, chatting and happing on fancy drinks, all dressed up to the tunes.


    Seeing this, she tried to shake off the disappointment about Alexander not being there yet and decided to focus on enjoying her


    birthday bash. After all, it wasn’t every day you turned 26 and had a cake towering over you like a skyscraper


    “Congrattions on your birthday, Miss Lockhart, an older gentleman who she knew was her grandmother’s friend. Mr. Rames,


    smiled at him


    “Mr. Rames it is a pleasure to see you again” Sofia smiled. She had met the older man in passing when she was younger.


    However, since she was not that close to her grandmother, she did not have any intention of getting close to her grandmother’s


    contacts.


    However, tonight is different.


    Sofia had the intention of enjoying the night and knowing a lot of people


    “Rames it is a pleasure to see you again” Enda united. She was standing next to Sofia, and since they arrived, she had been


    introducing a few people to her-something that Sofia was very thankful for


    “You look dashing as always. Mr. Rames said “Ah, this is my grandson, Leandro Rames. He is going to be the future of Rames


    Corporation.”
