"I just hope something interesting happens in today's party"
While he was wearing his cuffs he looked at his sister who was wearing black velvet gown and high heels.
"Whatever happens it would be at least better than your boring life"
Vivian lazily glanced at her younger brother who was dashing as always, she smiled leisurely and hooked her arms with his.
"Mother, father we will come back late so eat on time and sleep"
Both the parents stared at their grown-up children with lovely eyes.
"Dear Vivi behave there, don't forget to call Papa"
Mr Salvatore started to weep at his grown-up daughter who was as beautiful as her mother. Vivian gave him a slight smile.
"Father even I'm here, it hurts to see this discrimination"
"What are you yapping like a dog! Shut up and listen carefully at the party you have to fulfil your responsibility that is to protect your sister, your sister and YOUR SISTER!"
"...Yes father"
"Just stop it dear" at the same time Mrs Salvatore came and gave a loving smile to her children.
"You both behave well, have dignity and have confidence even if a person insult don't lose your composure, their words couldn't make you shaken up"
"Mother, no one dares to insult a Salvatore" Leo lovingly replied to his beautiful mother.
"Yes mother don't worry we'll do our best"
With this, they made their way out of the mansion and sat inside the car.
************
This party is organized once a year, it is to mainly to focus on the new emerging companies, contributions made by the research centres and to analyse the performance of the top companies throughout the year.
Many powerful companies attended this party, it was important for the new generation who took the new position of their companies to get a firm position in the business world.
This was also the biggest opportunity for the young scientist to build their image and network in the field is science and keep themselves up-to-date.
The party was conducted in a lavish, old castle which was the royal palace of the last ruler of this country after democracy came into force this castle is mainly used for conducting parties and award functions.
The government with a firm dedication maintained the beauty and heritage of this castle, people were in awe as they saw the glittering walls and chandeliers.
"I should say that the owner of this castle had a very good taste for art"
"yes, he did but sadly he didn't have any brains for ruling an Empire"
"His hands were well suited for paintbrushes rather than swords"
Emma elegantly laughed as a young a women joked, she quietly watched the young women talking about the history of this castle.
Emma knew that this conversation was just on the surface, merely covering their real intentions, she knew every person standing here in this group is calculating the other person's worth right now.
And she wasn't different from them, it's an open secret that this party was not only to give a stage for new companies and scientist but also building networks.
Right now for Emma, the women standing in front of her is too beneficial, her company manufactures soaps, face creams, etc and the thing that makes them different from other companies is that they strictly use natural ingredients.
This was a big challenge for their competitors, getting natural ingredients is a hard task but this family has a big chunk of forest under their name so it is easier for them.
She also knew that many companies are trying to frame them and wishing for their downfall but it will never happen.
"It seems Miss Lucia has a good eye for art and has much knowledge in history"
"Yes, my favourite subject was history and I am a painter so naturally I have a knack for art"
"Well, it can be seen as soon as you took over the company the designs of the products had significantly changed, even I couldn't take my eyes off it" replied Emma with a smile.
"It's just that I tried to blend myself with my current job, no matter what, if we want to be happy we have to adjust ourself and find our passion even in boring things"
"I envy you miss Lucia"
As the two ladies talked happily the other people standing in the group went silent even if they tried to squeeze in their conversation, they were mercilessly ignored.
"haha, please drop the formalities and just call me Lucia"
"likewise"
As Emma replied they raised their glasses filled with champagne and clinked it.
"Oh, now I remember I saw a beautiful portrait of the late empress, come let's see it"
Emma smiled and start walking with her red backless gown flowing with her.
Everyone knew that it was just an excuse to get out of here so that they could talk about the real matter, people clicked their tounges and dispersed from there.
As Emma was walking away a man standing on the left side, leaning on the white pillar was gazing at her intensely.
A woman who was standing beside him saw his behaviour and calmly opened her mouth, "Is it her Leo?"
"Hmm"
"She looks like a beautiful red flower"
"She does"
Both brother and sister were looking towards the direction where Emma left and was lost in their thoughts.
Unfortunately, one person's thoughts were going towards a positive direction while other person's thoughts were going towards negative.
"....so that's great, isn't it?"
Both of them raised their head towards the people who stand in front of them.
Leonard smiled and replied, "it's just thanks to my smart work that I'm able to reach here, I believe in smart work rather than hard work"
All the people who were watching Leonard had shining eyes, which had various emotions like joy, respect, jealousy, awe, etc.
"Miss Vivian is the best actress, definitely Mr and Mrs Salvatore are the luckiest parents in this world"
"Haha..."
There was a pleasant atmosphere between the young people, Leo didn't have to build up his connection and go after people since many people were already coming to him.
He simply had to choose among them, Vivian already had a very good reputation as an actress.
Since she was born with a golden spoon she wasn't an ambitious person but rather she was a sharp person and believes in living her life to the fullest and today she is very much satisfied with her life.
But there are no humans with no regrets, as she was talking and joking with the people her gaze slowly went to the other side of the hall.
That side had a very pleasant yet sophisticated atmosphere, people standing there were had a very serious looking face and were divided into small groups.
Each group had younger people and elder people talking about recent discoveries and failures going on in the world of science.
Vivian's eyes dimmed while she looked at them. When she was a child she wanted to go in the field of science even her parents and her brother had supported her.
But she never had the talent and brains for this field, even though she studied and studied till she collapsed but she was never able to fit into that group.
Simply having an interest and love for a subject will not make you successful in it, at least you should have the talent and luck for it.
She turned her head and continued to chat with other people.
