"Miss Sterling, welcome to the Panorama Hotel. The return party is waiting for you on the 35th floor."
Elizabeth walked into the lobby of the Panorama Hotel, one of the luxury hotels in the Acropolis Mountains, which was booked tonight.
Regardless of whether it is the hot spring spa, swimming pool, business center, etc., which are usually filled with distinguished guests, they are all deserted.
Now the hotel is full of people from the New World Bank security department and Seth Group security department, all wearing straight-ironed formal suits, and even the body modifications are in a unified style.
As soon as they saw her, the old nanny, the assistant team and others bowed their heads and saluted, and said: "Miss Elizabeth."
The hotel staff and bankers called her Miss Sterling, and people inside Seth called her Miss Elizabeth.
But the tone is all the same, that is, they don't treat her as a human being, but as a beautiful and expensive item.
Belongs to Seth, to the New World Bank, as an extension of them, as their humanoid walking creature.
"Well, thank you for your hard work." Elizabeth just said from time to time.
Da da da, the lobby was very quiet, and her footsteps on the thick marble floor were crisp and loud.
The shining marble allowed her to see her own figure.
She is wearing an off-white off-shoulder evening dress tonight, her long navy blue hair is styled into a fashionable hairstyle, she wears light makeup, and a pair of red high heels make her figure more slender and firmer, giving her the look of a party animal.
"Miss Sterling, welcome."
When Elizabeth walked into the splendid and chronological brass elevator, the elevator attendant in the elevator said something, and the handsome face was full of respect that made her feel bored.
When the old woman and others came in, the waiter pressed the elevator button.
Elizabeth didn't say anything, and no one said anything. The elevator slowly went up level by level.
She smelled the smell of perfume, hair oil, cigars, psychedelic cigarettes, and banknotes hanging in the air, and she felt a little nauseous. She hadn't smelled this stench in the past year, and she already began to miss Jiang Gu.
Get rid of the pure air.
There was a ding, the 35th floor was reached, and the elevator door opened slowly.
Elizabeth walked out of the elevator, and the waiters and security personnel waiting at the aisle were like road signs. She could almost close her eyes and follow the welcome to the party venue.
"Elizabeth, welcome back!"
"Long time no see, you look so good, wow."
Before she even stepped through the door of the venue, she heard shouts and laughter coming from inside.
In this spacious and luxurious hall, distinguished young guests walked around, drank, and talked. They were all the blood of New World Bank, Santo, Seth, Gasboy, Metea Petroleum, and Longteng.
Lei Kuan's...
There were also guest performers from the idol group "Lightspeed Girls" who came to add to the fun, and they were also smiling.
More and more people discovered that the protagonist of tonight's party was here, smiling faces facing this way and raising their wine glasses.
Elizabeth looked at the feasting and feasting in front of her, looking all the way to the farthest point. Through the panoramic floor-to-ceiling glass of the conference hall, she could overlook the beautiful scenery of the rainy night in the central area. The hazy rain and fog made her feel less depressed.
Well, brace yourself for this so-called feast.
She smiled slightly and walked towards the crowd that was already watching.
Say hello to this one, say hello to that one, and after a long circle, she was surrounded by several young men talking.
"Elizabeth, which major are you going to study at LU?" asked James Amick, a Gasboy native with blond hair that was shiny with hairspray.
"What kind of wine do you want to drink? I'll get you a drink?" Fang Mu said. He was from the Longteng Group and had a mustache.
"Elizabeth-chan, can I ask you to dance?" Asahoshi asked with a flattering smile, wearing purple eye makeup in a fashionable manner, Mitou's side, but not Harato, Bodo, and Arato.
People from big families.
Elizabeth didn't want to pay much attention to them, and she just felt bored looking at their self-righteous and greasy looks.
You are so happy. The long dining tables covered with white cloth are filled with wine and delicious food. They are all acceptable and expensive foods to her. But she knows very well that at least 80% of these foods will end up after the party.
Throw away.
Even though there are so many starving street children outside, and even though there are so many waiters and security personnel here, they still have to throw them away. This is a rule and a distinction between status.
This food will just rot in garbage bags and then be transported to the mud pond area and thrown away.
There, the half-rotten part of the food may fall into the stomach of a homeless person or a scavenger...
"Elizabeth..." Her former best friend Sophia Amick interrupted her thoughts, "What are you thinking about?"
Elizabeth came back to her senses and said, "I was thinking about how to better deal with the leftover food tonight."
Sophia wore a light green low-cut evening dress tonight, and a sparkling jewelry necklace, which made her blond hair more noble and elegant.
"Gentlemen, Elizabeth and I will have a little chat first." Sophia pulled Elizabeth to a corner and reluctantly advised: "Elizabeth, if you really want to come back, don't do this. Pay attention to the atmosphere."
Elizabeth wanted to turn around and leave, but if the master hadn't instructed her to lurk back...
"How many people from the Heir Club are there among the guests?" Sophia added, "I am the only Gasboy, right? No one else is willing to come."
Bloodline inheritance is a wonderful thing. No matter how much the New World Bank studies it, not every descendant will have extraordinary talents. And now, most people in the hall are ordinary people below the third gear.
The so-called "Heirs Club" is a club established by the new generation of the core families of the New World Bank.
They are all highly talented extraordinary people, who are considered to be those who have the opportunity to take over the New World Bank in the future.
Elizabeth used to be a member of the club, but of course she is not now.
She used to have a good relationship with Sophia, but they almost parted ways a year ago.
"You betrayed the club and you have not been readmitted."
Sophia was quite dissatisfied with her, "They asked me to see if you are still the same willful guy... Oh, I really don't understand you, why can't I understand you?
"Elizabeth, we grew up together, and you know how I treat you. Think about it, how many people are there in your Sterling family? How many brothers and sisters can your father add to you at any time? How many cousins do you have?
"The Sterling family is really the ones in charge of Seth, but there are other families on the board.
"Seth Group is also a member of the New World Bank.
"The New World Bank itself is a living entity, as is Santo, Seth, and Gasboy. Their existence no longer depends on a certain person or family, but on the overall structure and its own operation.
"If you're a virus that doesn't contribute to its existence, it will get rid of you."
Elizabeth listened silently to Sophia's words. She had heard many people say this.
"The reason why you are favored is because you are the only overdrive among the new generation of Sterling family, and you are also rare in the club."
Sophia continued to persuade rudely, "But what are you causing trouble now? I heard from grandma that you are still at the first red heart level of the program. This is too slow. I am a sixth-speed gear and became extraordinary at the same time as you.
But I’m already a second programmer in spades.”
"I'm sorry that you chose the blood-eater profession." Elizabeth muttered softly.
"Hey!" Sophia shook her head, "You are such a stubborn old man. If you continue like this, you will not only be distanced by everyone, but you will be banned until death. Since you are desperate to come back, don't be merciless.
I wish.”
Sophia paused and emphasized: "It will take time for the club to re-accept you and it depends on your performance."
Do you think I'm careless? Elizabeth took a deep breath and lurked. She came back to lurk, so she couldn't be willful...
"Then what should I do?" she asked.
"As long as you are willing, you will still be the most shining Princess Seth." Sophia pretended to be sour.
"Okay." Elizabeth forced out a fake smile and walked back to the lively crowd over there.
The young gentlemen from before suddenly gathered around again, and she said to Fang Mu from Longteng Group: "Help me get a cocktail." She then said to Qian Xingle: "It's not a dance tonight, let's have another dance someday.
.”
Fang Mu walked quickly as if he had received the imperial decree, "Wait for me."
Qian Xingle was also pleasantly surprised: "That's a deal! By the way, Elizabeth-chan, there will be a new version of "The River" performed at the Garden Theater in two days. Are you interested in going to see it?"
He didn't mind at all that she had participated in the antitrust lawsuit against Santo Company before, and thought it was because of her personality.
"We have a new sports car in Gasboine. Can I take you for a drive in two days?" James Amick also invited.
"Haha." Elizabeth smiled perfunctorily, "It all depends on the situation. I'm grounded now."
But everyone was immediately encouraged and continued to circle around her, vying to plead with Mr. Sterling on her behalf.
Elizabeth was a little distracted again. Suddenly, a strange current surged through her mind, and a strange light flickered.
Without warning, a mysterious prompt box popped up:
[The console call is in progress and will be forcibly connected after the countdown ends: 59 seconds]
She was startled, and then she immediately reacted with joy, Master, it’s the master! Here he comes, the call comes, and the reward comes!
Look at the young master, Sophia and others around, and the old woman in the distance, they are completely unaware.
Sure enough, that is not a simple spiritual network, it is amazing, you are truly a master!
"Everyone, I'll excuse you."
Elizabeth saw that there were only 50 seconds left, and she definitely couldn't connect here. She looked around, and regardless of the high heels she was wearing, she rolled up the skirt of her evening dress and hurried out of the meeting hall.
"Elizabeth!" Sophia called out angrily, but the old nanny over there had no expression on her face.
James Amick, Qian Xingle and others looked at each other in confusion. Fang Mu, who came back with a cocktail glass, was stunned and hesitated to speak.
