Chapter 173 The Guests at the Opening Ceremony

“That’s too many flower baskets! Are these from the same sender? Who’s that rich to send this amount of flower baskets?” Not knowing how to respond to Landon, Camila stared at his two flower baskets, which was typical of his style. Well, being thrifty wasn’t a bad thing. “It’s Brian.”

Upon hearing that, Landon felt a little embarrassed at his gift. If this were under normal circumstances, two flower baskets would have sufficed as a congratulatory gesture-those were only for good luck. However, the two flower baskets looked a little out of place among the larger baskets brought over by Brian. What the heck? If only he knew about Brian’s flower baskets, he would have listened to the florist’s advice and bought Camila a horseshoe as a good luck charm. The sight of the two flower baskets by Landon was overshadowed in a corner, looking sad and pitiful. Melanie’s expression froze as well upon seeing the sea of flower baskets. Her gaze toward Landon betrayed her disdain for her man. The switch in her gaze happened over a second, causing Camila to doubt her own eyes. When Landon looked at Melanie, she hurriedly smiled at him and gripped his arm tighter, appearing like a loving couple. Landon was fast to adjust to the situation. He could not do anything to save his dignity, so he decided to ignore it and chuckled, “Camila, this is not much, but it’s my sincerity. I wish you all the best for your opening.” Camila could not help but tease him, “Thank god you didn’t buy a lot. I wouldn’t have had the space for it anyway.” Melanie smiled sweetly. “Camila, congratulations! Everyone around me is talented, unlike me. I’m not good at anything.” Camila comforted her, “That’s alright. You still have Landon. Anything that you can’t settle will be his work.” Melanie took another look at Landon with a loving expression. Feeling giddy from being praised, Landon looked at Melanie with his chest puffed. “You’re tired, aren’t you? Let’s get in.” She nodded at him. As the host, Camila quickly invited them in, “Yeah, just get into the studio. There are places to rest in there. After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, we will head to the hotel.” When the couple entered the studio, Camila turned around to greet the incoming

guests at the entrance.

Suddenly, a jacket with some warmth was draped across her shoulders. She looked up to find Silas’s familiar face staring at her. “It’s a little cold. Put this on.” Feeling grateful toward his care, she clutched at the jacket and thanked him. “You should head in.” He curtly replied, “It’s fine.” Peering down at her eight-inch heels, he asked, “Are you tired? Take a rest. Since I’m a stakeholder, I can take over.” Camila smiled at him. “It’s fine. I’m used to wearing heels.” He didn’t say anything more because he only wanted to hang out with her. If so, they’d both remain outside the studio. At the same time, a fleet of cars approached the studio. The leading car was a black Maybach, which rolled to a stop at the entrance. Everyone at the site was gossiping. “Are those cars coming for the opening ceremony?” “Who’s that? Looks like someone influential.” “Look, look, isn’t that Gillian Thompson? Jean Ford is here too. Oh my god, the superstars are showing up!” “Yeah, Abby Elliot and Ruth Paxton are here.” “Wow, Camila sure is well-connected.” During the commotion, the car door was opened, and Marcus Cohen’s face appeared. Camila immediately went up to him. “Marcus!” He smiled at her. “Camila, congratulations. Best of luck with your opening!” “Thanks, Marcus.” Then, he shifted his gaze to Silas and greeted him with a surprised smile. “President Nolan, I didn’t know you’d be here too.” Silas flashed a faint smile. “I’m a stakeholder of the studio after all.” Marcus gave a meaningful response, “Oh, so you’re a stakeholder? If so, congratulations to you as well!”
