The Legend of Return
Chapter 198. Being invited to a party (3)
“You dare to tell the boss…”
Robert finished talking to the boss and gnashed his teeth.
He knew better than anyone about the invisible power of abuse of the upper class.
Even though he was a manager in the past, Robert could not set foot in American high society.
Right now, the mainstream upper class was impatient to meet Robert.
Wall Street’s rising big hand and investment genius.
It is a word that currently modifies Robert.
The political, business, and cultural worlds were bombarded with phone calls every day to get Robert.
My divorced wife and children also contacted me not too long ago.
My ex-wife said that she was wrong in the past, said she was sorry, and said let’s design a beautiful old age together.
Robert managed to hold back the rising swearing.
His wife, who came from a ruined aristocratic family emigrated from Europe, secretly ignored Robert.
As soon as he became unemployed, he asked to get back together with the subject who had left Robert.
So did the kids.
Now they are completely independent, each of them can afford to live, and they need their father.
It was a funny bullshit.
Even between parents and children, there were basic courtesies to be observed.
It was Robert who devoted his youth to his family.
Even when they became unemployed for an instant and became like beggars, they were the ones who did not call or buy me a meal.
The children who were like that now come and need a dad?
Robert had long since let go of them all and had forgotten them.
I have already supported them as much as possible so that they can become independent and lead their own lives.
And now he is enjoying a happy life with the woman he loves.
I didn’t want to make the mistake of going back to hell.
“Marcel Dropoy… you will have to shed some tears for your child!”
It is the third largest multinational company in the world after Walmart and Tesco.
Against Marcel Dropoy, the company’s vice president and son of the founder, Robert declared war.
I listened to the boss for a short time and found out.
A guy named Gabriel spent money in all directions to become a celebrity.
Basically, he even acquired information about his humanity, saying that he treats people in a position inferior to him without hesitation.
The European corporations that Robert was investing in had quick information.
It was necessary to sound the alarm not only for the bosses, but also for European companies.
The opportunity was good.
It generously supported Boss through its European corporation.
“Everyone worship. He is my boss!”
Robert clenches his fist.
At that time, a huge international short sale on Carrefour took place.
Around the time of work, the head office of Carrefour was stunned by the plunge in stock prices.
Carrefour’s head office was thrown into chaos by the massive stock price crash that took place in an instant.
It was a massive sell-off that took place 30 minutes before market close.
It fell more than 10% from the previous trading day and faced a major crash.

“Will Vivian come?”
“Well… Vivian, who is known for her high self-esteem at school?”
“Your family name is great. Gabriel, it was a bit dangerous today.”
“What’s so great about being a descendant of a ruined royal family?”
“I didn’t crash. Don’t you know that she goes with Vivian’s bodyguards?”
“it’s okay. How great is that?”
“Vivian’s dad also has a castle. A great nobleman.”
“…I’m not afraid. A noble family.”
Saint-Paul de Vence, a rich village on the hill of Marseille, where the island of If, which was the stage of the Count of Monte Cristo, can be seen close by.
Gabriel and his friends had a conversation in a villa with a clear view of the old port of Marseille.
During the vacation, famous celebrities were invited.
It was a party that was allowed by his father, the vice president and major shareholder of Carrefour.
He tried to make his only son an early debut in the social world.
Gabriel also liked to party.
Gathering with celebrities and chatting and flirting with beauties was a hobby.
But lately I haven’t been feeling well.
Even at Paris 4 University, she worked hard on the most beautiful Vivian, but she only drank water every time.
Gabrielle was a tall, blonde athletic body, and she lived well in the family.
However, it was not a noble family.
One of the reasons Gabriel approached Vivian was that his family was not an aristocratic family.
In Europe, family was considered as a condition for becoming a higher class.
It was like an invisible wall.
As a result, there were many cases where they tried to change the future of their descendants through marriage with a prestigious aristocratic family.
Even collaterals could use the name of an aristocratic family.
Gabriel, who pushed Vivian for various purposes and greed.
I met her when I came to Marseille, holding back my anger.
We met there, a famous restaurant in Marseille.
However, the scene in front of my eyes caught fire.
With a smile that was not usually seen, Vivian was with an Asian guy.
Even in couple clothes.
Gabriel, whose eyes were turned upside down, began to argue.
Normally, she would have been careful because of Vivian’s family, but she lost her temper at the restaurant.
Moreover, the opponent is an Asian guy.
He was tall and handsome, but he was still a stinking yellow race.
I brought up the topic of a party to stomp on the cheeky guy, but he took it seriously.
It was funny.
I dared to shout at a subject who did not even know what kind of party it was.
Contrary to her appearance, her outfit and basic accessories were disappointing at first glance.
Anyone can see that he was an oriental country boy who had traveled to France.
Gladly invited him to the party.
He thought that if he came to find it, he would show him what the upper class was like and screw it up perfectly.
If she didn’t come, I could make Vivian a snack to chew on next semester.
“By the way, what is that man? He was handsome…”
“Isn’t it? He was tall for an Asian and had a good physique. Are you an athlete?”
“Doesn’t it look like a model?”
“It could be…”
The school girl friends, who were the finances of the family, if not as much as Gabriel, upset Gabriel.
“Lily Clech. I don’t think so. I must say, I am a stinky Asian.”
Gabriel’s friend Hugo noticed and intervened.
Hugo was living a luxurious life thanks to his friends.
I didn’t want to provoke Gabriel, who was proud of himself.
“Okay~. He probably won’t come.”
“Here are the guests.”
Lily and Clech also turned their attention.
They were also looking forward to the party today.
Not everyone could come to such a classy party enjoyed during vacation.
It felt good to enjoy a well-paid party for free.
I was also looking forward to a pleasant meeting with the guests who would come.
There was no need to further provoke Gabriel, who kept his mouth shut.
The preparation for the dinner in the yard of the villa was perfect.
The hotel business trip team came.
It was full of suitable snacks and delicious wine.
Gabriel, who had hosted the party many times, took extra care this time.
Not only Marseille, but also many celebrities who visited nearby Provence for music festivals were invited.
Four of my friends were nervous.
It wasn’t easy to throw such a big party without my parents.
I put on a suit and dress and waited.
A total of 30 invited guests today.
If you knew them, you were more likely to be invited to a party in Paris.
connections that are so connected.
No matter what business you do in the future, the network you have established will be helpful.
profit.
The cars arrived at the villa one after another in time for the appointment.
Well-dressed men and women got out of the car smiling.
The waiting drivers parked the car on one side.
“Gabriel~ I’ve been watching it for a while now.”
“Thank you for accepting the invitation. Miss Ellie.”
“I’m glad it’s close to Provence.”
The first guest was Eli Michel, a violinist who is like a rising star in Europe.
I came with a woman who seemed to be the same performer.
The beauty was great.
“This is Isla Duncan, a pianist who was selected as a guest performer for the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra.”
“ah! Miss Ayla! I was familiar with the reputation. It is an honor to meet you in person.”
“Thank you for inviting me.”
Ayla appeared in an ivory dress.
A smile spread across Gabriel’s face at his innocent appearance.
‘Is it pretty?’
Ayla was one of the names often talked about among the upper classes these days.
Rumors spread that she was a great female pianist.
Adding her beauty to that, it was certain that she would soon become a star in European society.
“Lily. Guide the two of you.”
“hello. My name is Lily.”
Lily shared a bijou and guided the women to one side.
And one after another, guests arrived.
“Gabriel~!”
“Giselle. long time no see.”
“I flew straight from Paris at your invitation. Isn’t the villa nice?”
A supermodel who is hotly loved by designers in Paris and Milan also came to visit.
He was a regular customer of the Chanel store run by Gabrielle’s mother.
“Hello here. This is Anna from England, and this beautiful Venus is Natalie from Greece.”
Model Giselle was a glamorous girl with blue-tinted blonde hair.
The models that followed were also star-class models.
They actively sought out these parties to meet young and famous men.
It was a flower with another purpose to brighten up the party.
“Clerch, please take care of my precious friends. Give Giselle water because the wine is weak.”
“oh! What are you talking about. He said he left his schedule until tomorrow for today~. Claire, this is your second time, right?”
“nice to meet you. Giselle.”
Unlike parties hosted by adults, the conversation between them was light.
Still, we kept our distance from each other and were careful.
In the social world, once bad rumors spread, the damage was great.
Appropriate attention and speech were basic qualities that should be possessed.
Just like that, guests gathered one by one.
Everyone was gorgeous, including the son of the mayor of Marseille and his girlfriend, Isabelle, the granddaughter of Chanel, a conglomerate.
Most of the cars they rode were supercars.
BMWs and Benzes were nowhere to be seen.
In France, the upper class saw automobiles as an accessory that complemented fashion and honor.
For a high-class party, I rode a supercar even though I rented it.
However, it did not exceed a certain level.
Everyone is still young.
Except for the models, everyone was benefiting from the wealth given by their parents or family.
Age was the limit.
It is a society where individualism is rampant, but the overflowing revelry of the leadership has become the target of the media and the public.
Especially these days when the internet has developed, everyone is more careful.
“Do you think we are all here?”
“Perhaps.”
“I don’t know if I’ll see Vivian next semester. Whoops.”
Gabriel was very satisfied with the quality of his guests.
A large number of emerging young celebrities from various fields such as art, economics, and modeling came to visit.
Few people turned down invitations to parties.
Except for Vivian and the Asian I met during the day.
swollen
At that moment, I heard a heavy exhaust sound coming up toward the hilltop villa, and a bright light caught my eye.
Light was different from normal cars.
“???”
“What are you talking about?”
The eyes of those who enjoyed refreshments in the yard of the villa, where the wind blows lightly, turned to the entrance.
There was no one who would vaguely come to this place, which is the highest place in the vicinity.
The exhaust sound of a car that is exceptionally unfamiliar and loud.
Swollen.
A car with a red and black silhouette that overwhelms the eyes of the onlookers as it climbs up to the villa without exerting any effort.
“Oh!”
“Bugatti???”
“Really?”
The Bugatti Veyron, one of the supercars that cannot be purchased with only money.
profit.
It stopped with a loud exhaust sound.
“Gabriel? Who else did you invite?”
“uh? No……”
Gabriel was taken aback by Hugo’s question.
The Bugatti Veyron cost well over 2 million euros.
It was at least five times more expensive than a parked supercar.
An uninvited guest visiting in such a car.
Everyone’s eyes turned to the tightly closed driver’s seat of the Bugatti Veyron.
The driver’s door clicked open.
A man getting out of a car lightly.
The tall one is tall.
I took a step and caught people’s gaze.
I opened the passenger side door with my fingertips.
And…
“…..Vivi…..an.”
