Elijah reclined in the plush VIP lounge of the Xian Mirage, a hand-crafted glass plate of steaming Wagyu beef resting before him. The lighting was soft, the scent of saffron rice and imported truffle butter wafted through the air, and faint jazz music played in the background. He took slow, deliberate bites, savoring every luxurious flavor, but across the table, Lewis hadn’t touched his food.

“You're not eating,” Elijah said mid-chew, staring at the untouched plate of herb-roasted sea bass in front of Lewis. “Have you suddenly become allergic to what you ordered or are you just depressed?”

Lewis offered a faint smile that vanished almost immediately as his eyes flicked down to the plate. “No... I just... Thank you for all this, really. But... can I go, please?”

Elijah wiped his mouth with the black silk napkin, wondering why Lewis suddenly felt like leaving. “Go where exactly?”

    Elijah leaned lazily against the polished mahogany counter, phone in hand as his thumbs glided across the glowing screen. The salesgirl’s cheap vanilla perfume tried to mask the exhaustion that clung faintly to the air while his detached reflection shimmered in the glass countertop. The double glass doors separating the waiting room and the main boutique parted, and Bartholomew strode in with measured confidence. Behind him, two guards pushed chrome trolleys piled high with garment bags and boxes, the branded luxury logos shouting money. "My lord," Bartholomew’s proud tone carried caution as he halted a few feet away. "Do you love these… or should we pick other ones?" Elijah slid his phone into his inner pocket and turned, his icing gaze flying to the trolleys. "Hmmm. I can’t come all the way from San Dicevey to the capital just for scraps. The most important thing is Naomi. Did you get a gown? Exactly her size and beautiful enough for her that she will love?" Bartholomew’

    The Aviatux Luxury Manor guests' dining hall was a sight of pure elegance. A grand chandelier bathed the room in golden light, reflecting off the polished marble floor. Towering black-and-gold columns lined the walls, while deep crimson drapes framed massive windows overlooking the glowing gardens. The air carried the soft hum of Aveston's orchestral music, blending with murmured conversations. A semi-circular dining table stretched across the hall, draped in fine silk and set with gold-rimmed plates and handcrafted glassware that had the diagram of two intertwined bracelets, the crest of the Aviatux family. The scent of gourmet dishes filled the air as business moguls, officials, and dignitaries sat in quiet discussions.
