The grand crystal doors of the exclusive venue stood heavily guarded by tall muscular security men. Camilla sneered down her perfect nose at the two people blocking her path.

"You are still nothing but a completely useless good-for-nothing parasite clinging to wealthy women. You are a disgusting leech sucking the blood of true high society." Camilla crossed her pale arms over her sparkling diamond necklace.

"And you Eleanor are a total complete loser without a real invitation to this prestigious event. Your pathetic failing company is lower than the dirty mud on my expensive shoes." Camilla rested her head gently against Sebastian's broad muscular shoulder.

Sebastian stroked Camilla's beautiful dark hair with pure deep affection. She smiled up at him with incredibly sweet and completely absolute devotion.

"My brilliant handsome Sebastian is the only reason I am breathing this wonderful clean air tonight. He is a true king while you are a smelly dirty street rat Dominic." Camilla glared at her husband with freezing icy indifference.

Eleanor laughed loudly with a completely arrogant and highly confident smirk. She already knew the terrifying absolute truth about the quiet man standing beside her.

"You are completely blind and incredibly foolish Camilla. You threw away a massive diamond to pick up a worthless dirty rock." Eleanor flipped her elegant dark hair over her bare pale shoulder.

"Are you actively defending this cheap garbage loser right now? You are both completely insane and totally pathetic." Camilla pointed her perfectly manicured finger directly at Eleanor's face.

"Let us make a very simple and highly entertaining public bet right now, Camilla. Whoever cannot enter this VIP venue tonight must kneel down directly on this hard marble floor." Eleanor stepped forward with immense bubbling confidence.

"The absolute loser must kneel and deeply apologize to the clear winning champion. They must admit they are nothing but useless filthy street dirt." Eleanor crossed her arms to match her arrogant business rival.

"I accept your stupid childish bet with total pure absolute joy. I cannot wait to see you both crawling on the dirty floor like the disgusting weak worms you truly are." Camilla reached into her expensive designer purse.

Camilla pulled out a thick beautiful gold embossed invitation card. She handed it to the tall serious security guard standing near the red velvet ropes.

The guard scanned the barcode and nodded his head with extreme deep professional respect. He unclipped the velvet rope and gestured toward the bright sparkling ballroom.

"Please enjoy your luxurious beautiful evening, Miss Camilla. You and your incredibly handsome powerful guest are completely welcome here." The guard bowed slightly toward Sebastian.

"Watch and learn exactly how true wealthy royalty behaves, you pathetic filthy beggars. Do not forget to clean the floor with your dirty knees when you completely fail." Camilla smiled sweetly at Sebastian and walked gracefully through the entrance.

Eleanor pulled out her own digital invitation code with a massive triumphant smirk. She held her glowing phone screen up toward the tall strict security guard.

The guard scanned the bright digital barcode twice with his heavy black device. A loud harsh red error light flashed brightly across the small dark screen.

"I am deeply sorry, miss, but your name is completely missing from the official guest list. I absolutely cannot let you pass through these secure doors tonight." The guard blocked her path with his thick muscular arm.

Eleanor felt her confident heart drop straight into her completely terrified stomach. She stared at the red error light in pure total absolute disbelief.

"That is entirely completely impossible! I received a direct VIP confirmation just two short hours ago! Please check the corporate system again immediately!" Eleanor gripped her phone with violently shaking pale hands.

The guard shook his heavy head and crossed his thick muscular arms over his chest. He looked at her with complete total professional annoyance.

"I am not playing games with you, miss. You are not on the list and you must leave this private property right now." The guard pointed his thick finger toward the dark cold street.

Camilla burst into loud cruel screeching laughter from the other side of the velvet rope. She pointed her pale elegant finger directly at Eleanor's terrified pale face.

"You are a total complete absolute embarrassing joke, Eleanor! I knew your pathetic failing company could never secure a real VIP invitation to this elite event!" Camilla clutched her stomach as she laughed viciously.

"Get down on your bare dirty knees right now and beg for my absolute divine forgiveness! You are nothing but cheap filthy garbage pretending to be expensive gold!" Camilla glared with pure freezing toxic hatred.

"Admit you are a completely worthless useless loser just like my pathetic disgusting garbage husband! Kneel down and kiss the dirty floor exactly like we agreed!" Camilla tapped her sharp high heel impatiently.

Eleanor felt hot humiliating tears prick the very corners of her dark eyes. Her corporate reputation was being completely destroyed in front of the entire elite wealthy society.

Dominic stepped forward completely calmly and placed his large warm hand gently on Eleanor's shaking shoulder. His dark eyes remained completely totally emotionally blank.

"Do not panic and do not ever kneel to such a completely arrogant foolish woman. I will handle this minor completely insignificant corporate error right now." Dominic pulled a small heavy metal object from his dark pocket.

Dominic held a gleaming solid gold badge directly up to the tall guard's face. The heavy expensive badge sparkled brightly under the bright crystal chandelier lights.

The strict security guard stared directly at the shining golden badge. All the warm healthy blood instantly drained completely out of his terrified pale face.

This was the legendary supreme executive badge of Blackcrest International. Only the absolute highest-ranking powerful masters of the global empire possessed such a terrifying exclusive item.

"I am incredibly deeply terribly sorry for my complete total absolute ignorance! Please forgive my blind foolish mistake, my supreme honorable lord!" The guard bowed his head entirely down to his own knees.

"You and your beautiful elegant guest may enter the VIP ballroom immediately. Please enjoy your magnificent completely flawless evening." The guard unclipped the heavy red rope with violently shaking hands.

Eleanor let out a massive heavy sigh of pure total absolute relief. She looked up at Dominic's handsome quiet face with deep intense burning admiration.

Camilla stopped laughing completely and stared at the terrifying scene in pure absolute confusion. She could not comprehend why the strict guard was bowing to dirty cheap garbage.

Sebastian stepped quickly out from behind Camilla's beautiful frozen figure. He pointed a thick angry accusing finger directly at the shining gold badge in Dominic's large hand.

"Do not let that disgusting cheap dirty loser inside this beautiful expensive venue! That golden badge is a completely pathetic fake illegal forgery!" Sebastian shouted loudly for the entire quiet room to hear.

"My wealthy father is a high-ranking manager for Blackcrest International! I know exactly what the true elite executive badges look like!" Sebastian grabbed the guard's broad thick shoulder aggressively.

"Every single real elite executive badge features a massive roaring giant bear! This pathetic lying loser is holding a badge with a massive giant dragon!" Sebastian sneered cruelly at Dominic's quiet calm face.

"He is trying to trick his filthy dirty way into our exclusive wealthy party! Throw this completely useless pathetic street rat into the dark freezing dirty alley where he belongs!" Sebastian laughed with pure total ugly absolute arrogance.
