Lauraâs attitude and tone were sincere and showed no sign that she was making fun of them.
After all, it was her daughterâs birthday today, and she too hoped everyone could enjoy themselves as they celebrated her daughterâs birthday.
Rooney glared at Laura before scoffing. âStop being so pretentious. Itâs just dinner. Iâm sure Mr. Kai will have something even grander arranged for when itâs my daughterâs turn!â
âMom, stop it!â
Helena was too embarrassed to stay inside any longer. She grabbed her motherâs hand and ran out with her.
Hubert hurried after them.
Herman shook his head. âLet them be. We should go ahead and celebrate Heraâs birthday!â
Sienna led everyone to the Ultimate Royalty Room.
Over thirty leather armchairs were arranged around a massive circular table.
A massive chandelier was suspended from the ceiling, casting its gentle light into every corner of the room.
In the corner was an expensive grand piano.
The artwork and paintings decorating the walls were all invaluable pieces of work.
The porcelain vases displayed in the room were also antiques.
Herman and Cain immediately got distracted by these antiques when they entered the room.
Olivia acted as the two menâs tour guide and introduced them to every one of the pieces.
Hera returned to her senses and dragged Nash over to a corner. She placed her hands on her hips and puffed her cheeks out as she asked, âWhy didnât you tell me earlier?â
Nash replied, âI wanted to surprise you!â
âSurprise?
âShock sounds more like it!
âDo you know how nervous I was just now?â
Hera glared at Nash. The angry look on her face made her seem even cuter.
She had met Sienna Lowe, an A-list celebrity.
She had also learned of the existence of the platinum membership card..
These were all things she had not expected to happen even in her wildest dreams, and they had all happened to her today.
Nash sighed. âI wasnât expecting Theo to give me his platinum membership card either!â
âSo, whatâs the deal between you and Theo?â
Hera stared into Nashâs eyes, seemingly trying to pry all his secrets from his mind.
âWeâre⦠just friends!â
To be honest, Nash did not know how to define his relationship with Theo either.
However, Theo had been doing his best to help him all this while.
Just then, a commotion rang out outside the room.
An old man who seemed to be in his seventies stood at the entrance, a group of young men and women behind him.
âOh my goodness, is this truly Heraâs birthday celebration?â
âOh⦠my my my, is⦠is that Sienna Lowe?â
âHoly crap, what did I do right to get to see Sienna in a maid costume with my two eyes?â

These people were classmates Hera had been on pretty good terms with back in college.
Several of the people in the group were her lecturers.
The oldest man was the chancellor of Jonford University.
A smile appeared on Heraâs face, and she dragged Nash along as she walked toward them.
âMr. Yonder, Mr. Jen, Mr. Wilcox! And all my dear friends! Good evening!â
Hera smiled sweetly as she said hello to them.
Nash, ever the polite man, also said hello to everyone present.
âYour boyfriend is so good-looking, Hera. Does he want another girlfriend?â One of Heraâs girlfriends asked jokingly.
