Chapter 160 Celebration Party
The Bennet Group won the government bid to build a stadium. Jordan was over the moon. He decided to have a celebration party. He invited influential people to the party.
His best friend, Luca Sparrow, was promoted and transferred to the East London Martins Group branch as Finance Team Leader.
Jordan took his phone and said, “My friend, I am planning to have a Celebration Party and would like you to attend. Which is the perfect date for you?”
Luca smiled and replied, “Any date is alright with me except 30 September because CEO Martins will be visiting our branch.” Jordan was overjoyed when he heard of CEO Martins’ schedule.
A few days later, Jordan went to the Martins Group to drop the invitation card to his future father-in-law. He greeted him with a smile and said, “Uncle Martins, I am having a celebration party on the 30 September, I hope you will come.”
Mr Martins told him that he had a scheduled meeting with the East London branch office, and he would not be able to cancel it. He promised to send Siyabonga Cele to attend on his behalf.
When Lily heard that the Bennet Group would be having a party, she called her best friend, Tiffany Spencer and said, “Hello Tiffany, Avery’s boyfriend, Jordan Bennet, will be hosting a celebration party on the 30 September.
Please ensure that your father gets an invitation card. You have to ensure that he falls in love with you.” Tiffany promised that she would do everything in her power to win Jordan’s heart. Then they hung up.
At the Spencer residence, during dinner, Tiffany looked at her father with eyes full of tears and said, “Daddy, I fell in love with President Jordan Bennet.
I heard that he will be hosting a celebration party on the 30 September. Please take me with you. Maybe I will be able to win his heart.”
Mr Spencer shook his head and replied, “I heard the rumour that President Bennet is dating the CEO Martins’ youngest daughter.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
John Taylor and August Martins are like brothers. As you know, the big projects that the Spencer Group is busy with are from the Taylor Group. Breaking up President Bennet and Miss Martins might jeopardize our relationship.”
Mrs Spencer looked coldly at her husband and asked, “What about your daughter’s happiness? I don’t care about your relationship with the Taylor Group. Find a way to get an invitation card to the Celebration Party.”
Mr Spencer looked at his daughter and said, “The Taylor Group heir, Xavier Taylor, is handsome as a painting. Why don’t you chase him and leave this boy to the Martins’ youngest daughter?”
Tears streamed down her face and replied, “I fell in love with Jordan at first sight, Daddy. I don’t even believe that Xavier is more handsome than my Jordan. I am sure that Xavier’s handsomeness will not move my heart.”
Her father was not happy, but he promised to get an invitation card. Tiffany hugged her father and thanked her parents. A few days later, CEO Spencer’s Executive Secretary handed the invitation card to him.
In the blink of an eye, it was the Bennet Group Celebration Party. Mr Martins left the invitation card with Siyabonga Cele and told him to take Avery with him.
After work, Siyabonga went to Avery’s apartment to fetch her. On their way to the celebration party, Siyabonga received a call from the client who was Jordan’s friend.
He asked him to meet him at His Mercy restaurant. He quickly drove to the restaurant, but the client was nowhere to be seen. They waited for him for half an hour, then they left.
In the meantime, at the venue, the Spencer family was with the Bennet family. The Spencer family was ranked eighth as the wealthiest family in the country.
Tiffany’s father, Mr Trevor Spencer, looked at Mr Josh Bennet smiling and said, “Mr Bennet, your son is outstanding. He managed to build his company to this level within a couple of years. I don’t mind having your son as my son-in-law.”
Josh Bennet’s heart swelled with pride when he heard Mr Spencer praising his son and replied, “Thank you, Mr Spencer, but I promised my son that I would not meddle in his private affairs. Let’s leave this matter to the children.”
His wife, Tess Bennet, was so angry when she heard her husband’s words. She turned to Mrs Juliet Spencer and said, “Mrs Spencer, please introduce me to your daughter.”
Fortunately, Tiffany was not far from her parents. The ladies excused themselves, then they walked to where Tiffany was standing with her friends.
Tiffany saw her mother coming, then she excused herself. She walked to her mother smiling brightly and asked, “Mommy, are you looking for me?” Her mother smiled and replied, “Sweetheart, I want to introduce you to Mrs Bennet.”
Tiffany looked at Mrs Bennet shyly and said, “Good evening, Mrs Bennet, nice to meet you.” Mrs Bennet looked at the respectful girl and replied, “Good evening, Miss Spencer, the pleasure is mine. You are so beautiful. What is your name?”
Mrs Spencer told her that her daughter’s name was Tiffany. Mrs Bennet was satisfied to have Tiffany as her daughter-in-law. A few minutes later, they joined their husbands.
Siyabonga and Avery rushed to the venue. They arrived at 7:30 pm. The party was in full swing. The security was very tight, they weren’t allowed to enter because the owner of the invitation card was not present.
Avery took her phone and dialed Jordan’s number. Jordan looked at his phone, but he ignored it. Avery tried several times, but Jordan didn’t take her calls.
Avery decided to call her God grandpa, Paul Evans. When the call was connected, she said, “God grandpa, Siyabonga, and I are outside the venue. Please ask Jordan to allow us to enter.”
Her God grandpa was puzzled and asked, “Sweetheart, what are you talking about? I am at home with my wife.”
Avery was shocked to hear her God grandpa’s words. Then she told him that Jordan was hosting a party to celebrate that the Bennet Group had won the stadium tender.
It was clear to her that Jordan didn’t want to invite Director Evans because he was scared that he might spill the beans when he was socializing.
They were about to leave when she saw Jordan’s Executive Secretary, Henry Gibbs. Avery smiled and said, “Mr Gibbs, do you still remember me?”
Henry Gibbs looked at Avery and replied smiling, “Miss Avery, I still remember you. What are you doing outside?”
Avery indicated that the security guard refused to let them in. Hence, they were still standing outside. Henry asked them to follow him.
