Chương 164: Hold on there
"Good Evening Grandfather" said Lia as she smiled brightly and she gave Ernest a kiss on the cheek.
"Good Evening Cecilia nice to see you" said Ernest as he smiled happily.
"Happy Birthday" said Lia as she smiled.
"Ahh thank you my dear, thank you" said Ernest as he smiled, he could not count the amount of well wishes he had received this evening alone, most of his guests had already arrived, and there was music and light chatting in the atmosphere.
"Where are you parents?" asked Ernest as he smiled.
"They are right there Grandfather" said Lia as she pointed to a middle aged man and woman as they were talking with some other people.
"Well then, let me greet them" said Ernest as he smiled and he walked to the man and woman.
Lia looked around, the celebration had started, but she could not see Dom anyway, she wondered if he got stuck in traffic.
"Hey Lia" said Michael as he called out to Lia and he snapped her out of her many thoughts.
"Ahh Michael, Hi" said Lia as she turned to look at Michael and she smiled as she walked over to him.
"Nice to see you" said Lia as she smiled and she gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"Hey Lia" said Charlie as he smiled as he and Nine were standing beside Michael as he smiled.
"Hi Charlie" said Lia as she smiled and she gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"Nine" said Lia as she gave Nine a quick kiss on the cheek.
"Hmm" replied Nine.
"You look great Lia" said Michael as he smiled.
"You mean she looks great as always" said Charlie as he added and Nine was the only one who stayed quiet.
"Haha thank you guys" said Lia as she smiled, she was wearing a long sweetheart neckline dress, paired together with red shoes, and she let her hair down as her bangs made her look cute and yet mature.
"I should say the same about you guys, you look so snazzy" said Lia as she laughed.
"Especially you Nine, you know, now to think about it, you never wear clothes that are not black, so it's nice to see you in a bright colour" said Lia as she smiled at Nine and he just looked at her.
"You know what, she is right Nine, you do look snazzy, and so do I" said Michael as he looked at Nine and he laughed, they were all wearing navy blue suits, because Charlie insisted that they all wear the same suit, so that way they would match.
"But of course I am the one most good looking here" said Charlie as he looked very smug which made Lia laugh, Charlie could never change.
"Where is Dom?" asked Lia as she smiled.
"Ahh well, he is not here yet, he and Natasha are on their way, we left before them" said Michael as he smiled.
"I see" said Lia as she smiled.
"Lia, are any of your friends here, I need a girlfriend" said Charlie as he laughed.
"Gosh Charlie, slow down, someone might hear you" said Lia as she shook her head and she laughed, Charlie was just too much.
"Hey, I can't help it, I am hot on the market" said Charlie as he winked and Michael scrunched his face as Nine just shook his head and Lia laughed.
"Of course you are, and you happen to be in luck, my friend Aimee from high school is here as well, she came as my plus one, she knows you, so I can introduce you two" said Lia as she laughed.
"And that is why we are friends" said Charlie as he laughed.
"Aimee here I come" said Charlie as he took a step to walk away.
"Hey, hey, hold on there Casanova" said Michael as he held Charlie back before he could go anywhere.
"You better put your plans on hold, because we need to go greet Grandfather first" said Michael.
"Aww man, he's busy, he's talking over there" said Charlie as he pointed to Ernest who was laughing lightly as he spoke with other people.
"Haha, alright, then let him just catch us and let him realize that we did not greet him first" said Michael as he laughed sarcastically.
"You are not getting out of this, let's go" said Michael as he pulled Charlie along with him.
"Tell Aimee to wait for me" said Charlie as Michael dragged him along with him as Lia laughed and she shook her head as she looked up at Nine who was still standing here and looking at her.
"You look beautiful" said Nine as he managed to say that as he cleared his throat.
"Thank you Nine" said Lia as she smiled at him, he could be very sweet when he wanted to.
"Hmm" said Nine as he walked to join Michael and Charlie as Lia was wondering what was taking Dom and Natasha so long??
…
"Oh finally, I thought something bad had happened to you guys" said Lia as she caught sight of Dom and Natasha entering the venue as she rushed to them.
"There was lots of traffic" said Dom.
"Anyway, it's good you are here now, it is almost time to cut the cake" said Lia as she gave Dom a kiss on the cheek and she gave Natasha a kiss on the cheek as well.
"Let me wish Grandfather a happy birthday first" said Natasha as she smiled.
"Alright" said Lia as she smiled and Natasha walked away to find Grandfather.
"Do you like my dress?" asked Lia as she looked at Dom and she smiled.
"You look great in it, as always" said Dom as he smiled.
"Thank you Dom, and you look great as well" said Lia as she smiled and Dom smiled at her, the venue was now packed with people, some she knew, and some she did not know, well it was hard to know, some of the company staff were here as well.
"Happy Birthday Grandfather" said Natasha as she smiled brightly as she gave Ernest a kiss on the cheek.
"Ahhh my dear, you are finally here, thank you" said Ernest as he smiled.
"You look very handsome Grandfather" said Natasha as she smiled, and she was telling the truth, he looked dashing in his grey shiny suit, the colour stood out on him since no one else was wearing the grey colour, no wonder the colours to wear were specified on the invitation.
"You flatter me my dear" said Ernest as he laughed.
"I am telling you the truth Grandfather" said Natasha as she laughed.
"I am 80 now my dear, that is no joke" said Ernest as he laughed.
"You may be 80, but you look no younger than 65 Grandfather" said Natasha as she laughed.
"Thank you my dear" said Ernest as he smiled, to be honest, he thought that Natasha would not attend his celebration since she would still be grieving the loss of her father, but she had come anyway, and he was very appreciative about that.
"Happy Birthday Grandfather, may you have long life, and many more years to come" said Dom as walked to where Natasha and Ernest were standing and talking.
"Thank you my Grandson" said Ernest as he smiled, this day was the happiest for him, since all his family were here.
"Lulu sends her regards, she apologizes for not being here, she said she has a major exam coming up" said Dom as he smiled.
"Ahh she should not worry, she already called to tell me this morning when she sang happy birthday for me" said Ernest as he smiled and Dom smiled.
"Did you two come together?" asked Ernest as he looked at Natasha and Dom as he smiled.
"Yes we did Grandfather" replied Dom as he smiled.
"Good, good" said Ernest as he smiled and he could not hide his pleasure as Natasha just smiled and pretended not to know what was going on.
"Happy birthday dad" came the voice of a woman as she walked to where Dom, Ernest and Natasha were standing as she gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"Thank you Maggie" said Ernest as he smiled.
"Hi mom" said Dom as he smiled and he gave the woman a kiss on the cheek.
"Hello Dominic" said Margaret as she smiled.
"Dad" said Dominic as he smiled.
"Dominic" said Ernest Jr as he nodded his head.
"Happy Birthday Father, may you live long and in good health… as long as you don't cause any trouble" said Ernest Jr as he turned to look at his father.
"Oh what a son you are" said Ernest as he used his walking stick to hit Ernest Jr's leg and he did not even flinch at all, he was used to it.
"Even my daughter in law is better than you" said Ernest as he shook his head.
"Happy Birthday Father, " said Ernest Jr as he smiled in annoyance.
"Ahh my dear" said Margaret as she finally noticed Natasha and she turned to look at her.
