Chapter 116 The charity dinner 1 (1/2)
The next day...
The venue was busy with the people hurrying to finish the preparation.
Mika was crossing her arms as she listened to Stephanie's explanation.
Stephanie was appointed as the floor manager and would directly report to Mika for any developement. Luckily for her, so far there was no problem. Phew...
”We have arranged the dresses. They would be after the crystals and before the donations from Mr Long's groupmates,” Stephanie showed the list. Some of them still have empty spots.
”When are you going to get the full completed list?” Mika frowned. They only have an hour or so before the dinner began and still, there were so many things to be done.
Jeremy was busy finishing his work at the office and would only come once he was done. Everything was on her shoulders and Mika had to ensure everything was according to the plan. Nothing could go wrong during the dinner.
”What's the time for the musician to come? The food? Is it enough for the guests?” Mika was worried about it. Even though it was called charity 'dinner' but her main focus was on the bidding session which would be held before the dinner. That was why they would also arranged for light snacks to be distributed before the bidding session began. Once the bidding session ended, then, the guests would be herded toward the dinner. Luckily all of the guests accept to attend both the bidding and the dinner.
Mika went to the location for the bidding. She watched as so many people running here and there, arranging the chairs and even adjusting the decorations on the stage. A woman was busy pointing here and there, giving instructions to the people there.
Mika went to the woman with Stephanie following behind. ”How is it?”
The woman at first wanted to snarl for interrupting her focus. But the word was swallowed by her saliva when she realized who was it. ”Ms Long.”
Oh my God, she almost called her ”Miss Witch!”
Luckily she managed to swallow the words. Lucky. Lucky. Lucky.
”How is the preparation?” Mika asked. Her narrowed eyes looked at the stage carefully.
”Almost 98% is done, Ms Long. We only need to do a little bit of retouch,” the woman reported worriedly.
”Hmm...” Mika tapped her chin thoughtfully. Then, she called for Stephanie to come closer. ”Check the snacks and the waiters. Are they ready?”
”Yes, Miss Long,” Stephanie went to find the caterer.
Mika nodded at the woman and walked back to first ballroom where the dinner would be held. For this program, the company actually booked two ballrooms; one for the dinner and another for the bidding session. It was a lot for Mika to handle. Fortunately for her, Jeremy actually allocated some of his own staffs for her to boss around.
She looked at the preparation over there. She was a bit worried when some guests actually told them they wanted to bring more people especially when they heard the group (Jeremy's group) would participate in the bidding session. Of course, it would bring more money for the orphanage home but on one other part, there will be a possibility for the food not enough to feed everyone!
She could not have that situation happen. She did inform the caterer to prepare more so hopefully, it was enough.
”Mika!” she turned and smiled seeing four young men walking toward her. She smiled widely seeing Jeremy's groupmates. They were wearing casual clothes but it could not stop their celebrity aura shone. Unlike Ryn who could hide her aura anytime she wanted.
So, in Mika's opinion, no one could win against Ryn. She was the best!
”Are you going to list down what you want to do for your buyer,” Mika winked.
”Stop being a businesswoman and so cold, Mika. We are here to have fun, aren't we?”
”Have fun?” Mika cocked an eyebrow.
The four of them rubbed their nape nervously. Why was Jeremy asking them to come here early? Why couldn't they just inform Jeremy about what they would offer during the program?
Was this the infamous Witch that the whole company was scared of? So scary.
”Who should we tell?” one of them asked, trying to change the mood.
