They all turned around together only to find a man hugging his friend who might have met after a long
time.
“Come on, guys. Elevator!” Marissa said with an easygoing smile.
“The guard will stop us,” Kate mumbled but Marissa kept walking until the elevator doors opened and the guard stepped aside to let them in.
When the doors got closed, all of them let out a long and heavy sigh.
“He is the same guard who tried stopping me, last time. What happened today?” Kate complained and Shang Chi responded to her, “Magic!” he moved his hand in the air, “Magic happened!”
They all laughed, and this time Kate had to join them.
When they stepped out, Dean was talking to someone when he found them chatting to each other in a friendly way.
“You all look happy!” he came near them.

“Yeah,” Marissa placed her purse on the nearby desk, “Anybody can get happy if you stop him by the reception for long hours.”
Though it was exaggerated, but it did work like a charm for bringing it to Dean’s notice.
“They all still stopping you?” he walked to the reception area of the VIP floor, “Don’t worry. I’ll see what I can do about it. You people go that room.”
They all obeyed him like school kids and went inside the said room only to find several other people seated.
“Who are they?” Delinda whispered. They all looked at the seats. The front two rows were empty, and a few
back rows were still not filled.
There was a board displayed with the front row that said, “reserved.”
“Do we have to go to the back seats?” Shang Chi remarked while running his gaze across the room, “Let’s go folks.”
They were going for the back seats when a uniformed
guard removed the reserved board and invited them to
sit in the front row.

They all passed a confusing look to each other and then started settling in those seats.
“Strange,” Delinda held the armrests and trailed her hands on the velvet finish material, “Were they reserved for us? They are treating us like a VIP.”
The woman seemed impressed.
If this was some kind of meeting, then Marissa wasn’t
informed about it.
Moments later, the door opened, and Joseph walked in with a friendly smile. He walked straight to his spot on the stage.
“Good morning, everyone,” he began, “I hope you all are doing well. Today you are invited officially to make you aware that you all are part of the team that will be responsible for carrying out the event. The special thing about this event is not our President or the guests across the globe…” he trailed off with a chuckle, “Well! That is also one of the reasons… but the main
reason is to hire all home–based business owners and
give them a chance to showcase their work in front of the big business divas. Once you catch the eye, the world will be yours to rule!”
