Many people attended the Charity Auction event from famous artists and vastly wealthy rich people, including Aires Elite Social Circle. Because the Royal family organized this event to fund several nonprofit organizations across the country, even the busiest people make the time in their busy schedule to not miss this event. A select few of the most famous painters also donated their work to auction, while some wealthy people donated their jewelry and some people donated money.Every year, people looked forward to two events, the Annual Royal Fundraising Charity Auction that Hue Chi started since he took office 7 years ago and the Fall Annual Festival that started centuries ago. The latter event is the country"s tradition that has been around for ages and the descendant continues to honor that tradition.
More than half of the attendees have designated seats reserved for them, and there is an area reserved for the Royal family and the bodyguards. Shortly after Kao Sheng and her mother arrived, the Queen arrived as well with her guards. The Queen took the usual seats in the Royal areas while she waited for her husband and son to arrive. Royals never travel in the same car to avoid having the entire family being attacked. She looked forward to seeing her son very much as he left shortly after checking in on her at the hospital.
Astos Daikarai, his wife and children also arrived and headed for their reserved spot. His daughter, Shesha, 20 years of age is on her last year of school, currently, is doing her internship at Aires Royal Corporate Square. His son, Darijo, 23 years of age, has been working in the company, learning the rope of the company.
Chu Seng also arrived with his wife and three grown sons and a daughter, Nuchee. She is 23 years, graduated a year ago and is currently undergoing additional training to further her knowledge at Aires Military sector.
Timon Gem came with his wife and children who are in their adolescent and teen years. He donated two sets of jewelries, limited edition from the HOPE jewelry line. His children are young, so he does not have to compete with the others for attention. It was unfortunate that the Queen couldn"t have any more children, so for those Elites who have younger children, they have to let go of the idea of having their children marry into the Royal.
Kozai Fang donated 3 devices that have yet to launch to the public. He has two daughters and one son. His oldest is a daughter, Renida, often go by Nida, 24 years of age, a rising technology device engineer.
Deni Ray came with his wife and children as well. His daughter, Seriya, a rising superstar in the entertainment industry. She has a lot of fans and followers, making her well known throughout the country. Her hope is to be known internationally and be an influencer among the people.
Soon the room filled with people, even the King and Va Tong had arrived as well and walked to their designated spot.
Just then, entering from the main entrance is Hue Chi and Yu Sha. One wearing a solid white tux and one wearing a white diamond glittery evening dress. Them walking side by side creates a mysterious cosmic airs making those who see Yu Sha and Hue Chi together feel like they"ve seen heavens right out of the book. The reporters and staffs were captivated by the magical sight even the reporters have forgotten to take pictures. Their eyes follow the couple to the hall door and disappeared inside. It is only when Yu Sha and Hue Chi are out of sight that the staff and reporter came back to reality.
They looked at each other, "Isn"t that the Prince?" No one was sure because there are no pictures of him in the media as Ma Chien had taken those photos off the news unless it"s a side view or back view of the Prince. And, their Prince have always worn black suit. They have heard that no one have ever seen him wear other color suits outside of the black family color and because of his distant, detached personality, he was often referred to as the Dark Prince among workers.
"So, then… who is the woman?" The staff workers asked among themselves while the reporters looked puzzled. It seems like they almost know the woman walking with their Dark Prince but couldn"t put a name to.
The people inside the hall are just as shocked, even the Royal Couples. The Queen almost couldn"t recognize the very son she bore because he looked the same every time she sees him, and today, he looked different for the first time. Then she shifted her vision to the woman walking besides him.
Feeling the airs and all eyes following them, Yu Sha whispered in a stoic face, "Why do I feel so threatened? If my life is not peaceful anymore after this, I"ll never let you go until you give me back my peaceful life."
Hue Chi irked his eyes at her and then a smiled curved at the corner of his lips making him even more dazzlingly handsome, an emotion, no one has seen before. It was a sight of the century, to see their Prince"s smile.
Pain and agony struck all the women who have secretly love the Prince for a long time. They were too afraid to approach him in fear of rejection. Even when they happened to attend the same event as him, he has never looked at them the way he looked at her, let alone a smile.
"Who is the woman?"
"What family is she from?"
"How come they have never seen her before?"
Some of the attendees whispered among themselves, making some of the Elite Social Circle families uncomfortable.
The Royal couple were just as awestruck as everyone else. Hue Chi is their son, but they"ve never seen him expressed any other emotion, other than the distant, detached airs he emits. It was hard to imagine him liking a woman already and they were at their wits end to make him pick a wife. The King was planning to retort on coercion if Hue Chi cannot make a decision at the upcoming Annual Fall Festival.
