Hollywood Zenith

" You look....lovely." He commented seeing her dress up for the party. She was wearing the same dress which she wore on the movie premier. He asked her repeatedly if it was okay but she assured him she felt best wearing this particular dress.

With it's modest design that covered all her body as well as classy feeling it gave, was perfect for her meeting his family. She empathised that she wanted to look her best while meeting his family which was why she didn't go to greet them during lunch.

" Thank you..but can you help me with this?" She turned around showing her exposed back. It was hard to get the zipper on so she sought his help. He smiled and walked over to her.

" Are you still nervous about it?" He slowly pulled it up. It was quite tight, probably because he bought it on a whim without knowing her actual size. The dress was a loose type but because of her curves it was a strong fit around those corners.

" No since you will be there with me." She faced him again with a slight blush on her face. Samuel realized a different side of her which was more akin to flirting when no one was there to disturb them.

" I am glad to hear that." He leaned in and kissed her lightly because he didn't want to ruin her makeup. They happily walked outside with hand in hand before getting in the car. Amanda and Nicole already left to help around with the party so the house was already deserted.

After few minutes of driving, they witnessed the massive christmas tree illuminating the small clearing right beside the garden. It was totally different from last day's party. Everyone was wearing formal attire and there were no laughter of children.

There were even tents put up to block any potential snow which was expected tonight. It was a chilly evening which is why there was a massive bonfire lit in the center of the place which gave it a rustic feel. Still to accommodate everyone, there were heaters installed in the corner and even barrier were put up in some distance to block cold winds.

" Let's walk from here. Someone will take care of the car."

" Alright." He exited the car and opened the door for her. Seeing the bright red ferrari immediately attracted a lot of attention not to mention when they saw the young master come outside in his dashing attire.

Many people only came here to see him or either make connections so they were expecting his visit. But not everyone knew about Kate. She slowly walked outside capturing their attention with her beauty.

She straightened her hair and put it up nicely to not look more out of place. Her bright blue eyes perfectly complimented her pale skin which matched quite well with her cream white dress.

" Here." Samuel supported her by putting his hand forward. She grabbed it and started walking toward the center.

People started whispering trying to guess the identity of the lady beside him but no one had ever seen her before. It strongly cemented Samuel's colourful private life having different beauty in his arm every time he made a public appearance. .net

" I see that you have lots of guards here. Is someone important coming?" Kate asked. She could differentiate the guest from stern looking suits that were stationed at every entrance of the party.

He also found it odd to see these people here, he could clearly remember all the soldier's faces and even if he never saw him before they would have general aura that linked them to being a family guard but these people were different.

" It must be because some high ranking businessman or politician decided to attend the party. Normally they wouldn't have time because they are busy with their own family and gathering but our family sends invitations to most of our acquaintances." He brushed it off as someone who had too much free time on their hand.

Normally it would be a show of dominance but for the Rothschild family it was just a child acting out infront of their parents. Nevertheless, they didn't prohibit people from bring their guards as long as they didn't have any weapons with them.

Any stranger would be thoroughly screened at the main gate so there was no danger but more importantly there were ghost soldiers protecting everyone from the shadows. Especially if there was such a large gathering of core family members.

" Is that so? I am getting more nervous hearing about it." Kate did manage to attend the movie premier but this looked ten times more intense than that. She was worried she would make a fool out of herself mingling with these elites.

" Don't worry. I am here with you." He didn't let her wallow in her own thoughts and dragged her inside.

People would greet him constantly and he extended the courtesy. Seeing Kate wasn't that good with holding her smile for prolonged period of time, he sped up the process and went directly toward his family.

It was only right for her to meet them first before talking to anyone else. Samuel too felt nervous for a second, this past week had been a roller-coaster with him bringing so many people to the Estate. It solidified his status as a player among the masses but he was more worried about the girls being treated differently because of him.

No one would ever say anything inside the Estate but because this party was semi public, rumours are bound to leak outside. He was already getting a lot of attention for his actor persona, it would be criminal if the next day front pages were stolen by him again.

" Arthur?" He saw Arthur was looking more handsome than usual. He wanted to ask him but Arthur immediately dragged both of them inside.

" Thank god, both of you look nice."

" What's with that reaction? Did you think we will attend the party in sleepwares?" He chuckled but Arthur wasn't acting normal.

" It would have been fine but we have an important guest this time. It's more than crucial that you meet them in proper clothes." he said seriously.

" W-who?" Kate decided to ask first.

" It's better to show you." He led them inside, Samuel was shocked to see the 'important' guest!
