CHAPTER 487 — Celebrations
The grand hall was transformed into a winter wonderland, a breathtaking display of opulence and festive cheer.
Lavish decorations adorned every corner, from towering Christmas trees with twinkling lights and ornaments to elegant garlands cascading from the ceiling.
The crisp winter air danced with the intoxicating fragrance of freshly cut pine, mingling harmoniously with the rich notes of mulled wine and the tantalising aroma of delectable holiday treats.
The ballroom was adorned with its high vaulted ceilings and resplendent crystal chandeliers, which gleamed with a warm and inviting radiance.
The walls were draped in regal red and shimmering gold fabrics, paying homage to the timeless hues of the season.
The tables were meticulously set with glistening china and sparkling glassware, with each place setting a work of art in itself.
