AURORA
Drastic measures.
They aren’t something I want to take, but something I have to.
I’m only playing the cards I’ve been dealt. Well, I’m also
paying for not being more careful, but it’s pointless to ponder on the past.
I, of all people, know that so well.
The wedding isn’t what I expected from grandiose families like the Kings
and the Steels.
It’s a simple ceremony with a few people present. They’re probably the
elite of the elite if they managed to get invited to this event.
I sure wasn’t.
Instead, I spent an entire week trying to forge an invitation. I ended up
going out with one of Steel Corporation’s leaders, Agnus Hamilton. He’s not
just the CFO. He’s also Ethan Steel’s right-hand man.
In a way, I killed two birds with one stone. I got to learn more about the
corporation — not that he talked a lot on that subject. I also got invited to the
wedding as his plus-one. I didn’t even have to try as hard as I predicted.
Agnus gave me a direct opening into Ethan Steel’s entourage.
He only escorted me inside the reception area, then disappeared
somewhere.
I’ll have to find him so he can introduce me to Ethan, but first… I need to
practice my pitch again.
That’s why I’m standing in a secluded area by the buffet table, nibbling
on a piece of lobster and taking note of my surroundings.
The wedding reception is set up around the pool of the Steel household.
The bride’s home.
The afternoon’s dim sun glints on the surface of the water, illuminating
the light blue colour. It’s an elegant picture frame filled with distinguished
men in expensive tuxedos and women in designer gowns.
My research paid off in recognising almost all of the big shots present
here today. I learnt early on to never be blindsided, and for that very reason, I
did as much research as possible.
For instance, the shorter man in a sharp tuxedo is Lewis Knight, secretary
of state. He’s smiling at something the two men with aristocratic features
have said. They’re actual nobles with titles. Duke Tristan Rhodes and Earl
Edric Astor.
It doesn’t end there, though. The Prime Minister, Sebastian Queens
himself, and his wife are congratulating the bride and groom.
It shouldn’t be a surprise.
They all belong to the same circle of influential figures. Power oozes
from every corner of this ‘familial’ reception.
Corrupted.
Infinite.
Untouchable.
It’s like being in the sun’s immediate orbit. If a normal person wants to
approach that type of power, they should be ready to be burnt.
I guess I am.
Because I have no choice.
Desperation leads you to radical decisions you would’ve never considered
before.
This is my only chance to save the livelihood of hundreds of workers,
their families, their futures, and their debts — that they funnel for these rich
people. They say you always have a choice, but distinguishing between those
choices is never clear cut.
Making decisions is even more difficult. If it were up to me, I wouldn’t
have stepped a foot here. If it were up to me, I would’ve avoided this circle of
people like the plague.
