The hall was filled with arriving guests when Valeria made it back after she had finished her conversation with William.

Mason felt a little awkward when he arrived and saw that Valeria and Kyrie were welcoming their guests with open arms.He decided to shake it off and greeted Valeria with a smile instead, "Congratulations on your promotion, Valeria!"

Valeria could not offend any guests as the host, so she could not ignore him even though she detested Mason.

Instead, she welcomed him warmly as well, "Welcome, Mr .Eich!"

Kyrie interrupted her, "Greetings Mr.Eich, I've heard that your new company is doing well!"

Mason glanced at Valeria before explaining quickly, "Of course not, we've only just started operating after all."

Valeria was surprised to hear that Mason had started a new company.

However, she decided to ignore it as she had no ties with him anymore.

Mason was disappointed at Valeria's cold reaction as he had expected her to be shocked at the news.

The last two guests, Declan and Charles arrived after one another.

Valeria smiled and greeted Charles happily as she thought of her plans, "Welcome, Mr.Howard!"

Charles replied with a fake smile, "Congratulations on your promotion, Valeria! I'm sure that you'll bring our company to greater heights as our new Vice President!"

"Oh, thank you for your kind words, Mr.Howard!"

In contrast, Valeria had greeted Declan coldly.

However, Declan decided to ignore her attitude and headed to his seat instead.

Declan was upset to see Ashley taking the seat next to him as he had assumed Valeria would be sitting there instead.
