You want to see me make a fool of myself, right? Over my dead body!
By 6.30 PM, the spectators gradually entered the Concert Hall and sat in their places under the
directions of the crew.
The two rows closest to the stage were roundtable VIP seats filled with exquisite dishes of food and
desserts.
Each seat was labelled with a nametag, who were all VIPs of Lake City.
The Mayor, Mr. Field, sat at the middlemost table and he was flanked by the other political leaders of
Lake City, while the other tables sat the other important administrators of Lake City.
While the first row consisted of VIPs from the leaders of Lake City, the second row was filled with
important figures in the business realm and famous artists of the city.
Behind the tables were the third and fourth rows, where they were regular rows of seats with no tables.
These two rows were now empty, as they were prepared for the performers who have finished their
performances.
Currently, the stage was empty as the show hadn’t started yet.
Most of the spectators were seated in their places now. Led by Harrison and Anderson, Ashlyn’s men
had also found their seats and were waiting for the show to start. The seats assigned by Ashlyn were
located right in the middle of the Concert Hall. Hence, they all get to enjoy the best view of the
performances.
As for Jared, he was sitting in the second row as the representative of Centennial Healthcare.
Sitting beside Jared was Winsor, who also brought his younger brother Tinsor with him.
Dixon also happened to share the same table as them.
The four of them merely exchanged pleasantries before taking their seats and then talked no more.
Except for Tinsor…
He was almost jumping in excitement in his seat.
“Hey, Winsor. Do you think my goddess, Ashlyn, will perform today? The social media is in chaos now
and they are waiting to see her make a fool of herself.”
“I’m going to fanboy over my goddess and cheer for her later.”
“Winsor-”
“Shut up!” Winsor growled lowly at his brother and glared at him. “Mr. Field and the other VIPs are all
sitting in front of us. Do you want to embarrass yourself?”
Finally, Tinsor pouted his lips and kept them shut.
It was already 6.59 pm.
Almost everyone had arrived at the Hall, except for one.
The middlemost table of the first row was left with one empty seat, and the name label for the reserved
seat was a very famous one. It was Lucas Nolan.
The Deputy Mayor put on an awkward smile. “Seems like Mr. Nolan is not coming here today.”
Everyone knew that Lucas never liked to attend such events. In fact, the last time when he had
attended the charity event was such an unusual occurrence that everyone’s eyes had fallen out of their
sockets when they saw him.
Knowing his character, and that the time was almost 7 pm now, everyone had guessed that Lucas
would most likely not attend the Gala Night as well.
Once the Gala Night started, the doors of the State Concert Hall would be closed, and everyone who
was late would not be allowed in anymore.
“I guess so… Mr. Nolan had always been a busy man. He is a pilot, and also the president of his
company. How will he have the time to attend such events?” The Director of Lake City TV station
assented.
He had just finished his words when the crowd by the door stirred suddenly.
The spectators turned their heads towards the door to see a tall man in his captain uniform and pilot
cap striding towards the first row.
“Mr… Mr. Nolan?!” The director got the shock of his life and immediately stood up from his place to
welcome Lucas. “You’re here!”
Lucas merely nodded in acknowledgement.
He had rushed to the Hall the moment his plane touched down.
Luckily!
We made it on time.
Poor Spencer had the fright of his life for Lucas. Mr. Nolan had run the red light thrice just to be at Ms.
Berry’s Gala Night on time!
Bless my fragile heart!
Upon reaching his seat, Lucas placed his cap on the table and sat down in his place.
The people at his table finally came back from their initial shock and greeted Lucas immediately.
“Pleasure to see you here, Mr. Nolan.”
“I didn’t expect you would attend the Gala Night!”
“It’s been a while, Mr. Nolan.”
Sitting in the second row, Dixon’s handsome face was now clouded in an air of displeased gloominess.
After all these while, the Haddock family is still considered a family of lower status compared to the
Nolans.
What an irritating fact!
In contrast, Jared and Winsor bore no hard feelings towards Lucas. Winsor, in particular, simply
ignored Lucas’ presence as the Nolans and the Jaquins were not on exactly good terms with each
other before that.
