While Lisa sat on the desk she saw an envelope.
Lisa found an envelope on her desk and opened it to discover an invitation from JJ Media for a movie launch party.
The letter mentioned that all the designers who contributed to the movie were invited, and Lisa realized that many of her colleagues had received it too.
While excited about the opportunity, she couldn't help but wonder what attending the event might lead to.
She set the letter aside, her mind buzzing with possibilities.

Canary also received the same invitation from JJ Media, addressed to him as the president of the company that designed the movie.
He briefly skimmed the letter, recognizing the significance of the event.
It was an opportunity to network and strengthen business relationships, but part of him wondered if he should attend with Lisa.
For now, he placed the letter aside, knowing the decision would come later.
***
That Friday evening reached so fast as the week had been so busy and Canary had not had enough time yet to talk to Lisa.
On Friday evening, Lisa was at Gladys's place after Gladys convincing her to attend the party.
She stood in front of the mirror, admiring the orange party dress Gladys had designed specifically for her.
The dress fit perfectly, its bold color making her feel both confident and elegant.
She gave herself one last look before stepping out of her room, where Gladys was waiting for her, a proud smile on her face.
"You look stunning," Gladys complimented as Lisa approached.
"Thanks to you," Lisa replied, twirling slightly to show off the dress.
" I am sure Canary will like it, let's go !" Gladys who had wore a green one arm short dress held Lisa's hand and they went to get a cub.

They arrived at the venue together, the buzz of the party already reaching them as they entered.
The party was in full swing when Lisa and Gladys arrived, the venue buzzing with energy.
The room was crowded with a mix of rich men and women, actors and actresses, and various businesspeople, all dressed impeccably for the occasion.
Elegant gowns and tailored suits filled the space, creating an atmosphere of sophistication and exclusivity.
Lisa couldn't help but feel a little out of place at first, but the moment she stepped in, the orange dress Gladys had designed for her drew plenty of admiring glances.
She held her head high, soaking in the lavish surroundings.
It was a world she was still adjusting to, but tonight, she felt like she belonged.
Gladys, ever the social butterfly, led the way through the crowd, engaging in conversations with other guests.
Lisa, still absorbing the grandeur of the event, scanned the room, wondering who she would meet—and whether Canary was already there.
As Lisa made her way through the crowd, Denis, the young CEO of JJ Media, spotted her from across the room.
He had been talking with a group of business associates but couldn't help but notice the striking orange dress she wore.
It was bold and elegant, standing out among the sea of black and metallic outfits.
Excusing himself from the conversation, Denis walked toward Lisa, a confident smile on his face.
"Lisa, I must say, you look absolutely stunning tonight," he greeted, extending his hand.
Lisa smiled, flattered by the compliment. "Thank you, Denis."
Denis' gaze lingered on her for a moment longer than necessary. "I've been looking forward to meeting you in person. Your work with the movie has been incredible, and it's clear that you're someone who truly stands out in this industry."
Lisa's smile widened, a sense of pride bubbling inside her.
"I appreciate that. It's been a wonderful experience."
Denis nodded, clearly impressed. "I can see that. I hope tonight is just the beginning of many more collaborations."
" I am glad to hear that."
As Lisa and Denis chatted, a group of men approached, interrupting their conversation.
Denis excused himself with a smile, greeting them and briefly discussing business.
Lisa stood quietly to the side, intrigued by the attention Denis had given her but deciding to focus on enjoying the evening.
As Lisa stood alone, taking in the scene, Jenny and Richie suddenly appeared, their expressions filled with disdain.
"We saw you," Jenny sneered, crossing her arms. "Trying to seduce Denis, huh?"
Richie added, her tone mocking, "Not surprised. You've been throwing yourself at every powerful man you can find, haven't you?"
Lisa's eyes widened in shock at their accusation. "What are you talking about?"
"You know exactly what we mean," Jenny retorted, her voice dripping with contempt. "You think you can just flirt your way into the spotlight."
Lisa took a deep breath, trying to stay composed. "I wasn't doing anything of the sort."
Richie scoffed. "Sure, you weren't. Just keep pretending."
Lisa stood her ground, refusing to let their jealousy get the best of her.
"I'm here for the party, just like everyone else. So, maybe you should mind your own business."
Jenny and Richie exchanged a look Lisa got a chance to step away from the confrontation.
As Lisa walked away from the tense encounter with Jenny and Richie, the two girls noticed Camilla entering the room.
She was impeccably dressed, as always, with a confident air that turned heads as soon as she stepped in.
The jealousy in Jenny and Richie flared up instantly.
"Look at her," Jenny muttered under her breath. "Always so perfect. She thinks she owns the place."
Richie nodded, her eyes narrowing.
"She always knows how to stand out. It's like she's trying to make everyone else look inferior."
Both girls watched Camilla move through the crowd with ease, drawing attention without even trying.
Camilla's beauty was always left noticed and soon men started approaching her while Jenny and Richie looked on.
As the night went on, Bianca, the model entered the venue, drawing immediate attention with her striking presence.
Jenny and Richie exchanged a knowing look, both recognizing Bianca from the previous Awarding ceremony.
"Her," Jenny whispered, nodding toward Bianca. "She's the one Canary chose over Camilla."
Richie frowned. "Yeah, the same girl who caused that big breakup. I bet she thinks she's got him all to herself now."
" Canary is so unpredictable. He might even choose someone else tonight." Said Jenny.
" There he comes…So handsome as usual." Richie spoke seeing Canary make his entrance.
" Do you think he'll go for Camilla again?" Jenny whispered, eyeing the room.
Richie shook her head, her eyes fixed on Bianca.
"I don't know. With Bianca here, it could be different. But knowing Canary, he'll probably end up with the one who gets the most attention."
They both watched Canary as he mingled with the guests, his eyes occasionally scanning the crowd.
