Marcellus chuckled softly, “She’ll be here in just a moment. She’s finishing up a few things downstairs with the kitchen and staff. You know how she is—wants to make sure everything’s perfect.”Ezekiel gave a knowing smile, while Seraphina exchanged a quick glance with her husband, quietly observing Zane’s expression. Zane nodded slowly, his anticipation rising as he adjusted the cuff of his jacket and tried to appear composed.“I see… she really runs this place with precision,” he said, his voice smooth but his eyes clearly scanning the door, waiting.A few minutes passed. The soft murmur of conversation filled the luxurious VIP dining area, but then the door opened.And just like that—silence.Every head in the room turned.There she was—Celestine Valencia.She walked in with effortless grace, the click of her heels echoing subtly across the floor. Her custom black evening dress hugged her frame like it was made by the gods, the slit on the side revealing just enough leg to tease th

A few people rushed to the front line of the crowd, holding their phones close to their mouths as they livestreamed, excitedly narrating what was unfolding before their eyes.“I don’t know what’s happening here tonight,” one girl said breathlessly, “but being at restaurant it seems the Valencias and the Haldens are literally having dinner together… this is major. Major.”Some people even began snapping selfies with the cars in the background, as if to prove they were there, right in the moment history was quietly being made.The SUV doors opened first — Richard stepped out quickly, then opened the door for Ezekiel Halden, who adjusted his sharp designer suit as he emerged with calm dignity. Beside him, Seraphina Halden stepped out gracefully, dressed in an elegant ivory gown that shimmered subtly under the lights.Then came the moment that truly sparked more gasps — Zane Halden stepped out of his Lamborghini. His hair was freshly styled.Phones clicked. Videos were taken. Livestreams

The girl fumbled with her device, unlocking it with trembling fingers. Celestine took it smoothly, switched to the front camera, and brought the girl into the frame. She gave a calm, radiant smile and clicked a few pictures, even recording a short video clip as the girl choked back a squeal.When it was done, Celestine handed her phone back. The girl hugged the phone to her chest, stammering, “Thank you so much... oh my God, thank you so, so much.”As she began stepping back, Celestine’s voice called out again. “Hey.”The girl froze and turned back, eyes wide.Celestine had reached into her bag. In her hand was a neat, wrapped stack of U.S. hundred-dollar bills.She walked over and handed it directly to the girl.The crowd exploded.“OH MY GODDD!!!”“WHAAAAT?!”“NO WAY!!”The girl was in complete shock, hands shaking as she received it. She burst into tears on the spot, dropping to her knees in disbelief, holding the money close to her chest.Celestine leaned down and hugged her gent

As the Halden family's convoy glided down the road in synchronized precision, it was nothing short of a spectacle. The black SUVs, glossy and imposing, moved with smooth coordination, their headlights piercing through the dusk like a fleet of silent shadows. Between them roared the unmistakable beast — Zane’s Lamborghini Huracán STO — its low growl and aerodynamic silhouette commanding instant attention. The matte violet-blue paint shimmered under streetlights, its signature rear wing slicing through the air like a blade.The effect on the public was immediate.Pedestrians stopped in their tracks. Conversations halted. Heads turned. Within seconds, phones were raised into the air. The street buzzed with excitement as people leaned out of shopfronts and balconies to capture the moment. The sheer presence of the convoy, flanked by security escorts and luxury at its finest, drew assumptions.“Is that the President?”“No way, must be some politician.”“Look at that Lambo, damn! Who the he
Chapter 308
At the sprawling Halden estate, a quiet flurry of elegance and tradition coursed through the halls for the anticipated dinner with the Valencias. In the master bedroom, Ezekiel Halden stood in front of a tall mirror, adjusting the lapel of his richly textured wine-colored dinner jacket. The suit, expertly tailored in Italy, sat crisply on his broad shoulders. His white shirt was freshly pressed, and the deep gray trousers tapered perfectly to polished oxford shoes. A watch with a platinum strap gleamed faintly under the chandelier’s glow.Seraphina Halden stood beside him, equally graceful, as she fastened a delicate diamond necklace around her slender neck. Her evening gown was a soft, champagne gold with intricate lacework trailing down to the floor. The off-shoulder design complimented her graceful neckline, while her dark hair had been pulled into a sleek, low bun. Her makeup was subtle yet radiant, enhancing her sharp beauty and poise.Richard, their ever-loyal family assistant,

“Yes, I can, master,” the assistant replied with a polite nod. “In fact, I think I might already have something.”He reached into his coat pocket and pulled out his phone, unlocking it swiftly. For nearly a minute, he scrolled through what seemed like an organized collection—folders, articles, images. Zane watched him with eager anticipation, his curiosity growing.“Here, young master,” the assistant finally said, stepping forward and turning the screen toward Zane. “This is her—Celestine Valencia.”The image on the assistant’s phone was a high-quality photo taken at a prestigious gala. Celestine stood poised in a deep emerald green gown that hugged her elegant frame, with a subtle shimmer that caught the light just right. Her long, dark hair cascaded smoothly over one shoulder, and her makeup was soft but flawless, accentuating her striking features—sharp cheekbones, full lips, and those confident, calculating eyes that made her look both beautiful and formidable.
