As the ti neared Woods' hotel entrance started bustling with excitent.
"Chairman Morgan... Madam Morgan, Here here, Chairman Morgan."
Hearing the reporters' voice, Alia and Rowan went out. Rowan and Alia just announced the aim of the celebration without caring to respond to their questions.
"Chairman Morgan, is there any special reason behind grandly throwing the party for Elder Morgan's birthday?"
"Madam Morgan, how are you feeling about celebrating your mother and father-in-laws birthday together?"
As questions started to pour, Rowan heard, "Madam Morgan, are you announcing President Morgan's engagent with his secretary Monroe Grayson?"
Alia squeezed Rowan's hand to tell him to remain calm and signaled Rowan's assistant to quieten the reporters before she spoke.
"Today we are celebrating my father-in-law Curtis Morgan and my Mother, Orla Gray's birthday. I hope the dia won't trouble the guests at the celebration. Thank you."
Both didn't care to give any reaction about Alan's engagent.
Soon the hot search of the evening beca 'President Morgan's lovey Dovey with his beautiful secretary.'
Worst of all, what Alia didn't want to happen had started.
Rowan and Alan's assistants and secretaries started receiving calls from many wealthy families wishing to witness Alan's engagent and share their happiness.
Rian's mobile also kept buzzing, irritating him.
Alan later got to know what was happening at the venue.
They could reject most of the families but they might have to allow so families but Alan doesn't care about any family so he left the decision to Rowan.
Alia was fuming, She strode towards Jeremy.
"Jeremy Grayson, do you know the reason behind why your company never could make it big? Because of your pea-sized brain. Have you left that empty too? Do you know why we stand top? We don't care about what we have and show off. We care about what we are. Who the freaking hell gave you permission to arrange all these?..."
Rowan who was tugging his wife pulled her aside forcefully. "Honey..."
Alia cut off, "I made a mistake agreeing to my father's request. They are ruining our reputation."
Alia was a woman who respected herself and her family. The family cos to her first then her maternal family. Due to her maternal family, she wasn't ready to taint Rowan, Aria, and her sons who were at a very high position in society.
And she always felt she should take care of it as a wife, mother and the lady of the house. She even knew none of them would bla her or even tell her anything.
Rowan tried to calm her, "Sweetheart, calm down. It's no ti to cry over spilled milk."
Alia shook her head, "How about I arrange everything back at ho and leave here? Our guest will understand and co over there."
Rowan knew Alia was worried about the Morgan family but he never let her ignore her maternal family so he wanted to convince.
And he was the reason why Alia always kept her family ahead of her maternal family.
"Our friends and family will understand us however it is. So don't get on your nerves. Let's handle this well, alright?"
Alia nodded in Rowan's embrace. She ntally decided to take back the support to teach them a lesson that would be serving a warning that Morgans wouldn't let anybody off for trying to leech off.
Rian who went to talk to them smiled before disturbing them, "My eyes... Ugh, my poor eyes... What with your PDA here?"
Alia and Rowan smiled looking at Rian who was closing his eyes, "You brat."
Rian peeked at them before opening his eyes. "Mom, I have an idea to make this party hit."
Rowan realized Mother and son were going to give no face to Grayson by ruining it. He just stood and heard everything mother and son discussed.
Rowan had no objection so Alia and Rowan agreed to call as many guests were willing to attend.
Alia went near the Gray family and relatives. "I'm sorry Jeremy for being rude. The sudden turn of events agitated and chided you." She glanced at Rowan and continued, "Let's celebrate our children's day grand."
In just a few seconds everything ca to life in the huge party hall. Rowan instructed to add extra tables and inford chefs about the increase in the number of guests.
Soon the reporters got the wind from inside that there would be engagent today with the birthday celebration.
Aria and Alan had no idea what Rian and Alia were going to explode in the celebration.
A simple family celebration soon turned into a wealthy society grand party. Luxury cars started to pull up in front of Wood's hotel. The guests walked the red carpet, gave short interviews, and entered inside.
To put cream on the top, An Audi pulled in the front. There was a continuous shuttering of the cara at the passenger door.
A slender woman's leg stepped out gracefully before showing up clearly. The reporters were stunned looking at the beauty.
Her hourglass figure was worth ntioning which was highlighted in her rmaid styled white lace evening dress.
Her dark red lips on fair skin were highlighted with her eyes which had a thin line of eyeliner. They never thought her to look so good.
Because She always failed to steal the lilight from Alan and just stayed in the pictures as background whenever the secretaries were captured in the picture with Alan.
A reporter who ca out the daze said loudly, "Monroe Grayson, Secretary of President Morgan."
Monroe in a white lace gown looked like a bride which confird to all reporters there was indeed an engagent. Her ladylike composure impressed everyone out there.
Monroe smiled when she heard her na.
The reporter started throwing questions at her. "Secretary Grayson, do you love President Morgan? Or is it family arrangents?"
"Are you guys childhood sweethearts?"
"Are you the reason behind President Cooper running away from her wedding?"
"When are you planning to get married?"
.
.
Monroe was grabbing everyone's attention which she actually liked.
She had always felt she was playing a secondary role in her life. Now, she was finally happily playing the lead role.
The reporters didn't care about the passing by guests as the questions poured at her. They wanted answers to every single question but Monroe just smiled without answering.
At last, she finally said, "Thank you for your concern, you all will know in the nearest future."
Even though she didn't say anything, the reporters were smart to understand the underlying aning of it.
She just accepted her love indirectly saying she will give an update later.
After saying it, Monroe was escorted inside by hotel security.
