Later in the evening.
The banquet hall was a sight to behold, each and every corner of the hall was bathed in warm light from grand chandeliers, with elegant flower arrangements on every table, and gilded decorations casting a glow that seemed to reflect the stature of the family gathered here.
Tonight was Grandfather's Lorenzo eightieth birthday, and the room was filled with family, friends, and esteemed business partners, all of whom had come to celebrate his life and legacy.
Grandfather Lorenzo sat at the high table, his posture regal and dominant, the perfect picture of a family patriarch. Everyone greeted him with reverence, admiration shining in their eyes.
The celebration had just begun when Grandfather started introducing his children and grandchildren to some of his business partners and allies, hoping to create bonds.
