As everyone was watching Calista with their hawk like gaze , she started to feel very awkward.
she cleared her throat a little and made her way towards the group of her family elders.(the all 7 families think themselves as each others family members)
When she reached their table and greeted them and also the business men and women who were near their table .
At last Everyone slowly came to earth
Cali spoke "I apologize for ,being late as I got an emergency meeting "
Father Smith spoke first " its OK Cali and the party has not that long started"
maintaining a small smile on her face she nodded gratefully .
then mother Rule decided to started to start a topic for gossip " by the way Cali I just got to know--**?"
suddenly mother Rule was immediately cutoff when an unfamiliar man out off god knows where came and stood beside Cali and called out her name .
Hearing her name she turned her head to the speaker and the rest also followed her line of sight
looking at the man with a realizing face she turned her head towards her family member who were looking at them with a questioning gaze . She coughed a little and stated " elders this is Mr. Tim Downey . actually he is a partner in my new project of sapphire and today meeting was also about our collaboration and as he was free for evening so I invited him here to introduce you to all "
father smith with a joyed gaze on Tim spoke" hello Mr. Tim its a pleasure to meet you " " no , please the pleasure is mine . Mr.smith and please call me Tim " " hahaha sure Tim please enjoy the party "continued Mr.smith " please introduce Tim to your friends " " sure uncle smith I was just going so then we'll take our leave " replied Cali
After bidding goodbye to elders calista started walking towards the table of her friends with tim tagging along in between greeting guests .
On the table of youngsters .
now it has been 8 to 10 minutes till Cali has entered hall but one particular has not stopped staring *Oops* oogling at her .
seeing certain someone was intensely oogling at his sister openly Leon whispered at the table for all to hear but not any outsider
