"Hi Sophia... ?". Greeted Jen while sitting in the chair to the left of Sophia, while Michael was on the right and there were two empty chairs in the circle of Michael and Sophia's table.
Sophia smiled and was relieved to see Jen sitting beside her. Because all this time he was just silent with many questions in his head.
"Are you alone?" Ask Sophia.
"Yes. My manager and assistant are taking care of other things. Besides, I wanted to come alone." Answered Jen..
After answering Sophia's question, Jen turned to Michael while asking, "Mr Michael... Can you tell me where is Boss Larry?".
Michael, who had been focused on his cellphone, immediately turned to Jen.
"He's coming soon!"
Hearing Michael's answer, Jen became even more annoyed because she felt that she was again dealing with curmudgeonly and less talkative men like Michael and Charles.
Just then there was a noise
And the direction of the entrance. Immediately Jen and the others turned towards the source of the voice.
Jen's eyes bulged at the two young men. After that he immediately turned his face away and looked down in annoyance because he knew that the two of them would definitely join forces.
"Isn't he the boss of Word Entertainment? But who is this handsome man beside him? He is so handsome and seductive."
"Judging from his face, he's not from country F."
"It seems that he is one of the businessmen from abroad who were invited by the W Group."
"Among all the businessmen from outside who came, he was the only one who looked young and handsome. Wow... This party is really amazing!"
The guests didn't stop whispering especially the girls on the show when they saw Charles and Larry walking hand in hand towards the front table.
Instantly everyone in the room was hypnotized because Charles' aura was so strong like a king was able to divert everyone's eyes, while Larry complemented Charles' aura.
Seeing the two young men walking together, Mrs. Laras who was none other than Michael's grandmother looked teary looking at her two grandchildren who she had longed for.
But not with his grandfather who had a very cold expression and his gaze was very sharp when he saw his two grandchildren. Therefore he had to say nothing.
Michael's grandfather was famous for talking the least but working a lot.
So it's clear now where Michael and Charles' coldness and little talk came from. Of course, none other than descended from their famous grandfather who spoke little but worked a lot and was a genius in managing the business.
"Did you see them?". Mrs Laras asked her husband.
"Yes. ". Grandpa Michael replied expressionlessly.
Mrs. Laras could not contain her happiness, if she had ever met and hugged Larry now she wanted to run and hug Charles.
"Don't you feel that your face resembles Larry and your character demeanor is more like the dashing Charles you were when you were young?"
Grandpa Michael just nodded without looking at his wife.
Seeing her husband's clumsy attitude, Mrs. Laras looked so annoyed that she didn't want to talk to her husband anymore.
But what Mrs. Laras didn't know was that Charles and Larry were approaching her desk.
There were Mr. Walton with his wife, Mr. Rayen and his wife and daughter, and Mrs. Laras and her husband.
"Our best regards to grandparents and aunts and uncles!" said Larry and Charles while showing their respect once they were in front of all of them.
Mrs. Anggi smiled seeing Charles who was finally able to come to country F as well.
"Hello Charles! Finally you set foot in this country, welcome dear!". Mrs. Anggi said softly.
"Charles ... You are very dashing in that suit, I hope this cooperation can be smooth!". said Mr. Walton, who had just risen from his seat. He then hugged Charles warmly.
"Thank you Uncle!". replied Charles.
Meanwhile, Mr. Rayen who is a general doesn't really like the Charles family because he knows that they come from a famous Mafia family in London.
They had been enemies for so long that the Waltons cut ties with Charles' mother, who was the only daughter of the Waltons.
And now Charles comes aiming to reunite his mother and extended family, through a business line between The Diamonds Group and the W Group. He hoped there was a way back that was his plan with Michael.
"Are you really Charles Larry's brother? If so, can grandma hug you?". asked Mrs. Laras who had just stood up and approached Charles. He really couldn't help but miss his grandchildren.
Charles nodded and stepped forward towards his grandmother. After that he hugged his grandmother warmly.
Immediately Mrs. Laras's tears spilled down her cheeks. Everyone witnessed the emotional atmosphere and realized that Charles was one of the Waltons.
After greeting the Waltons, the two of them walked over to Michael's table, which had been delayed.
After arriving, Larry cunningly immediately took a seat next to Michael so that Charles could sit next to Jen.
"Hi... The most beautiful sister-in-law and sister-in-law of Sophia!" Greeted Larry after sitting in his chair with a big smile, and a seductive glance at Jen who seemed to be holding back her anger.
While Charles cutely sat next to Jen without glancing at her. After sitting down he just focused on the Ipad that Michael had just given him.
Jen was really upset to hear Larry call her future brother-in-law. What's more, Charles didn't think it existed or respond to Larry's nosy behavior.
Jen also knew that Larry had made Charles sit next to her on purpose. Immediately Jen immediately sent a message to Larry's number.
'Stop calling me future brother-in-law! Because that would never happen, and you purposely arranged for this Monster to sit next to me? don't you know that I'm very scared of him?'
Larry smiled after reading Jen's message.
'Hahahaha… Why are you angry? My brother just doesn't care, unless you have feelings for him. But take it easy today my brother is being tame he will not care about you and probably won't realize your existence because today he is focused on his business with Michael. Sophia is already starting to look annoyed to see Michael who is too focused on talking to Charles.'
"Don't talk nonsense! I can't possibly have feelings for the iceberg monster like your sister. I'm sure no one will feel comfortable living with your sister who is used to living in the north pole other than penguins and bears".
After reading Jen's message, Larry's expression turned annoyed, he quickly typed and messaged Jen again.
"So you think my brother is more suited to pairing with a penguin or a bear?"
Jen couldn't help but laugh when she read Larry's message. But, he tried not to be seen.
"Hahaha... Penguin does suit your brother better."
Larry looked at Jen with a sly smile, then he whispered to Charles.
Watching Larry whisper to Charles, Jen started to have a bad feeling.
Immediately Charles glanced at Jen for a moment without any expression. After that he returned to focus on his ipad.
Jen suddenly felt awkward, and the look on her face became strange.
Larry was really very satisfied teasing Jen.
"What did you whisper to Charles to make him look at me like that?" Jen texted Larry again.
"I said if you keep glancing at him and you might like him. Hahaha…"
After reading the message from Larry, Jen's expression darkened because she was really very Shy. However, Jen still tried to muster her composure and try to be casual, especially today there are so many reporters that she didn't want to look suspicious even though she occasionally glanced at the beautiful stiff painting next to her.
'Larry's oath has been over-praying, and Charles has never changed. But, if you look at it again, Charles looks very cool when he is focused on his work. Hehehe... Oh no... What was I thinking? This can't be happening... I don't want to be a penguin I also still want to breathe the atmosphere of spring in Korea, in China and in other countries'. Jen thought with a small smile.
Jen was afraid and hated Charles, but he stole glances at him so Jen cringed at herself.
Everyone including the reporters and the people who were watching the show were wondering when they saw Sophia around Michael's table, but they refrained from asking prematurely.
