As the gala dinner progressed, a buzz of excitement filled the air as guests whispered and speculated about the identity of the mysterious benefactor who had treated them to such a lavish feast at the prestigious Phoenix Hotel. For many of them, the opportunity to attend a gala dinner at this opulent venue in South River was a rare and extraordinary experience, even for the wealthiest individuals in attendance.No wonder, when they were informed that someone had booked the gala dinner and invited five hundred selected guests, they guessed who the 'crazy rich' was."Maybe he's a relative of my boyfriend, well, come to think of it, my boyfriend does have a circle of friends with successful businessmen across the country." A woman seemed to be bragging about her boyfriend to her circle of friends."Giselle, we all have a circle of friends with rich background. It could be that the person who booked this gala dinner is your boyfriend's friend, or even our friend, that's normal. What I'm w
A man in a white shirt and red tie was seen walking from the south carrying a tray of tiramisu ice cream. There was nothing interesting about the man apart from his neat appearance. When Giselle saw Daisy still showing happy eyes towards the waiter, Giselle massaged her forehead a few times in response to the sense of wonder that plagued her mind. The curious Giselle then asked Daisy, "How come you look so proud to have a husband as a waiter like him? Oh, isn't that a disgrace to the Miller family?" Daisy almost choked on her own saliva. She hurriedly glanced at her index finger and then her eyes sorted out where the index finger was pointing. She almost choked for the second time after seeing that the direction of her index finger was indeed pointing at two men at once. The first man was Richard Forger who was wearing a classy suit that matched Richard's slender posture. While the second man who was also accidentally pointed by Daisy's index finger was the Phoenix Hotel waiter who
It doesn't require a person of extraordinary intelligence to fathom the reason why Giselle and her clique ousted Daisy. Whenever a strikingly handsome man approaches a gathering of women, the majority of them would naturally desire to eliminate the most gorgeous woman from their company. The same applies to Giselle's friends who view the man accompanying Tom Haley as too charming; they wouldn't willingly let the captivating Daisy steal his attention with her natural beauty.Regrettably, before the girls could shoo Daisy away, Tom Haley and Richard Forger had already come too close to Giselle's table. Their coming drawing the attention of other guests. Numerous people sitting at nearby tables stood up and saluted Tom Haley momentarily, while simultaneously pondering: "Who is that gentleman accompanying Mr. Haley? Why does he seem to have a hold over him?""I have traveled extensively and encountered numerous eminent personalities, but why does he seem unfamiliar?"Another guest added,
"Expelling the person who bought me the gala dinner?" Giselle tilted her head as she tried to repeat what Lesley had just said to them.Morgan and Giselle's friends frowned at each other, indicating that they didn't understand Lesley's meaning either."Manager Ley, doesn't this have anything to do with the Gala Dinner?" Morgan asked Lesley."Have you all gone mad?!" Lesley seemed to be asking Giselle and Giselle's friends half-seriously. "If Mr. Forger gives me permission, I'm really going to beat your mouths with the high heels I'm wearing!"Seeing the serious expression on Lesley's face, Giselle and Morgan forced themselves to pay full attention to all the words that came from Lesley's lips. But, no matter how much they remembered and analyzed Giselle's words, they came to the same conclusion: Lesley had misunderstood..."Manager Ley, we think there's a bit of a misunderstanding here. Manager, we're not trying to evict an important person as you imply. We just want to get rid of Dai
Daisy noticed a sudden shift in her husband's countenance and immediately inferred that Richard was in a rush.‘My…’ she muttered under her breath, ‘I’ve just remember that my wonderful husband is on a mission!’ She cast a fleeting glance at Richard before nodding her head and addressing him in a calm voice."My dear Richard, if your business takes precedence over tonight's gala dinner, don't hesitate to leave. We can always reconvene and invite a thousand guests of gala dinner for the next time." As she spoke, Daisy deliberately shifted her gaze towards Giselle, subtly alluding to the grandiose nature of the event they had planned.Richard, eager to depart, seized the opportunity and turned to Lesley, the manager of Phoenix Hotel. "Miss Lesley, can we book another gala dinner for a thousand guests at your hotel?"Lesley, fully aware of the importance of pleasing their priority customer, lowered her head and responded in a deferential tone, "Mr. Forger, if you wish to hold another gal
Giselle and her friends exchanged uneasy glances, realizing that they had overstepped their boundaries. They had underestimated Daisy's power, and now they were paying the price.In fact, Giselle's social media was invaded by her online friends, all of them were jealous that Giselle had managed to become a selected guest at the gala dinner held by Phoenix Hotel.If being the chosen guest is already a great achievement, isn't the person who organized the event and paid for everything even more remarkable?Daisy Miller and Richard Forger are extraordinary?'But isn't this too impossible to happen?' Giselle took a deep breath before she finally took a step forward and bowed to Lesley."Miss Lesley, I have proof that Daisy Miller is the poorest granddaughter of the Miller family. I can also ask Daisy's cousin for evidence to show that her husband's job is only a cleaning maid at a real-estate company. I mean, what if Daisy and her husband are committing fraud against the Phoenix Hotel?"G
In the car while driving to Ironwoods Casino, Richard remembered the piece of paper he had received some time ago.Luna Swan. That was the name written on the piece of paper that the beautiful girl in the Phoenix Hotel hallway gave to Richard. The girl mentioned Richard King's name more than three times and it really made Richard curious. Most likely, the case referred to by Alexander King was indeed something that Luna Swan might know about.Therefore, when Luna Swan invited Richard to meet at Ironwoods Casino, there was no reason for Richard to refuse. In fact, this was the golden opportunity he got to find out more quickly about what conflicts occurred in South River that made Alexander King intended to drag him back to Manoko."Mr. Forger, we're almost at our destination," Tom Haley reminded Richard, gesturing towards the looming Ironwoods Casino ahead. Richard acknowledged Tom's warning with a nod, but quickly offered a word of caution in return."Tonight, Tom, I'll be your drive
Previously, Luna Swan had whispered to Richard some information that Richard should to know. The first was, Luna Swan is the older sister of the teenage perpetrator of the murder of a tax official in the South River.Luna Swan considered the case against her younger brother to be odd. Her younger brother never had any criminal history and should not have any motive to kill a high-ranking official.Surprisingly, during the trial, all the evidence showed that Luna's brother was indeed the culprit although time and again, Jerry - Luna's brother, also said that he was just framed.One day, in his cell, Jerry tried to commit suicide. Before Jerry died, Luna, who was visiting Jerry in the hospital, heard one name mentioned by Jerry.'The culprit is probably, Richard King...'Hearing that, Luna Swan immediately asked the police to find out about 'Richard King' but the police had closed the case because all the evidence was complete and accountable.'From then on, I struggled to find support
