~~~~~ Ross Mansion 7 pm ~~~~~
High society guests could be seen everywhere, everyone invited here was not only under the Ross in terms of fame but also cane here to curry favors with the new CEO who was getting engaged today, only a few guests were actually on par with Ross's patriarch and those were the ones who came just to celebrate with the new couple and wish the matriarch a happy birthday, which was of utmost importance.
Callie smiled in satisfaction and happiness, finally it was her engagement everyone here came just to celebrate with her and not her sister, all attention was going to be on her only....she felt so happy right now...for once she would get all the attention she deserves.
Looking down at her dress, she smiled in satisfaction...her dress was ordered from M & M brand which was one of the most popular brands among the high society ladies, it was a sparkling white dress made with the softest material one could find...her hair was let free...flowing freely behind her and she wore matching black heels which went with her hair color.
Looking at Liam and his family who just walked in and were talking to her parents and grandparents she smiled, she smiled looking at all this and forgot today was also her grandmother's birthday and not just for her alone, climbing down the stairs in slow steps she smiled when everyone gasped at her dress and whispered about it, it simply meant she had made an impart.
Walking towards her grandparents, she bowed her head in greetings towards them, her parents and also Liam's parents who were looking at her with some on their faces....turning toward Liam, she smiled at him and locked their fingers together...clearly displaying public affection.
All the young girls gasped not in surprise or shock because whenever they went shopping or to the restaurant and they bump into those two they always displayed their affection for each other publicly without fail, so they gasped hoping they would find a man like this who would love them affectionately.
" They are so sweet together "
" they look so good together "
" Oh my God, am so jealous of her..she got such a gentleman "
" Not only she benefitted but also the young master Green benefitted as well, she looks so beautiful in that white gown...she's wearing "
" Yes..yes..you are completely right, she looks so beautiful and is without a flaw "
" I wish I could have a skin and beauty like hers "
" me too "
" me too "
Callie smiled in satisfaction at the whispering she could hear going all around the place, it so filled her heart with joy...finally she was being treated like she deserved.
" Happy Birthday dear matriarch, long life to you " Mrs Green said with a happy smile on her face, clinging onto the matriarch hands.
" Well, thank you for your wishes but I don't want to live any longer than this okay...also I hoped you prepared a gift for me " the Matriarch replied with a smile on her face.
" Yes, yes matriarch I got you a gift..." Jennifer replied clearing her throat in embarrassment, she wondered why this old woman always liked to attack her.
" Oh mother we all prepared a gift for you, why don't we start the party now, hug? " Laila added trying to divert the topic of discussion.
" Yes mother, father we should begin the party now right?? " Fredrick asked looking at his father.
" yes grandma, grandpa we all definitely did...let's get started now right " Callie said trying to cover up the fact she forgot about her own grandma's birthday and forgot to prepare a gift.
" Why should we start now, when we are not yet complete..one more guest is yet to arrive and we have to wait for her arrival " Old Man Ross muttered lightly drinking his glass of wine.
" Who's yet to arrive that hasn't come yet and dares to keep the patriarch waiting " Jennifer chimed in running her mouth without restraint.
Liam sighed in frustration, why couldn't his mom just keep quiet and avoid making any comments...it was clear as day by the glooming expression on the Ross family faces, that the person the old man was expecting is none other than Kylie the first young miss of the family.
He was anticipating her arrival at the party, he wanted to see the pained expression on her face when he finally engages her twin sister..he had loved Kylie but she refused to do whatever he asked blindly and always questioned him, unlike Callie who was very obedient and blinded by his love and could do anything for him without question.
" Well it's my dearest granddaughter who always know how to keep her dearest grandpa waiting " Old Man Ross said with a shrug of his shoulders, sipping his wine without a care in the world.
" Granddaughter, which granddaughter?? " Jennifer asked gazing at the Ross family members with a curious gaze.
" your ex daughter in law and the sister of your new daughter in law, Kylie Ross...Auntie " Kylie replied as she stepped towards her family table, her voice was neither too loud nor low but everyone could hear her because all their attention were currently on her.
Jennifer was startled by the voice she heard which was coming directly behind her, as she slowly turned her face and body towards the direction of the voice...she was shocked looking at the person who was standing behind her.
With a smile on her face Kylie muttered " Hello Mrs Green it's been a while, hasn't it auntie " stepping closer to the woman who stepped backward like she had just seen a ghost.
" you...you..how did you..." Jennifer started babbling with a surprised expression on her face, when her husband quickly pinched her hands and silenced her.
With a smirk on her face, Kylie walked across them and bent down in greetings to her grandparents,
" Happy birthday grandma "
