In his home office, Henry Hirogori sat in his large chair signing company projects. Hearing the sound of someone knocking on the door, with a gruff voice he notifies them to come in.

Entering into his father's office was none other than Kenji Hirogori. With his intense brown eyes and sandy brown hair, he calmly walks towards his father's desk with a file of papers in hand.

"Father, I ensured everything will go as planned for the event tomorrow," Kenji said placing the documents on his desk.

"En, good. Make sure to double check your work, I won't tolerate mistakes." Henry Hirogori warns sharply.

Kenji nods his head obediently. Pondering on the next words to say, Kenji finally voices his thoughts.

"There's also been word going out that the CEO of Andras will be attending."

Henry Hirogori with his sharp eyes looks up at his son with hidden satisfaction.

"Hah! So that Andras bastard finally revealed himself? Good, very good!" He coldly chuckles. "I'm intrigued to see the face of such a quick operating company."

A cold smile raises on Henry Hirogori's wrinkled lips. Kenji furrows his brows at his father's sudden expression.

"Allow me to notify you of something, son. As the heir to the Hirogori family, you require nothing but your own power and no one else." Henry Hirogori said. "Remember that tonight. Any mistakes tonight will be on you and you alone."

Clenching his fists tightly together, Kenji nods his head in understanding. He knew the pressure was on him, and he couldn't bear to make a single mistake or else his father would severely punish him.

"Good. You're dismissed." His father motions his hand for him to leave.

Nodding his head once again, Kenji walks out of his father's office. Alone in the large room, Henry Hirogori chuckled darkly.

....

The night of the grand Hirogori event, men and women dressed in expensive brands roamed the large glass building many chatting happily amongst themselves.

A few taking quick glances at high-status figures passing by. Big named actors and actresses attended the event showing off their charming good looks.

A group of the press was stationed in a corner where they could take pictures at a respectable distance.

However, once the main event started they would be sent out to avoid any accidents or desperate interviewers.

Some actresses spoke to company Presidents to gain favor and hopefully earn a supporting backup.

Henry Hirogori was said to attend at a later time thus making everyone patiently waiting for his arrival.

The rest of the Hirogori family, including Lillian and Henry's sons Seth, Alec and Kenji, were also present.

Lillian with her alluring good looks chatted amongst the women showing off her power and glory to marry such a powerful man.

Kenji, standing on the top floor of the building, discussed business deals as well as receiving a little congratulations with a group of older company Presidents.

His calm demeanor and arrogant front made him appear as a king among everyone. He was to be the next heir of the Hirogori group. He was in power.

An hour into the event music and the large chandelier shone brightly.

Alec stands in the corner with his half-brother Seth placing on a fake gentle smile at people glancing his way.

Seth, on the other hand, hadn't even tried to hide his emotions. His expression was gloomy and annoyed.
