The main doors of the house were flung open, and grandpa Tai entered the large hall which had been extravagantly decorated. His wife was with him and she had her arm through his. Both of them were wearing red, auspicious colors to mark an auspicious event.
The hall which was used to host special events of the Tai family was filled with guests who included friends, family and business associates. Just as grandpa Tai wished for noble guests, a representative from the Thai royal had also come.
Many great and well known businessmen and women in the country were in attendance and specially chosen reporters were also around, taking pictures and interviewing the willing guests.
The guests were interacting happily, with drinks in their hands___, most of the guests anyway. There were some in the crowd of two hundred people that were displeased, jealous and envious. Those people were hopeful that Alix would make a fool of herself today.
