Lustful Paradise

After entering the hotel lobby, Lucifer led the group towards the reception area, where a staff member greeted them. "Good evening, ladies and gentleman. May I ask for your invitation?"

Lucifer reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out an envelope containing the invitations. He handed it to the staff member, who checked the contents before handing them back.

"Thank you very much, sir. Please follow me. I'll show you where to go." The staff member said as he gestured towards a set of double doors on their right. Then he led them through the doors and down a long hallway lined with paintings and sculptures. After walking for several minutes, they arrived at another set of doors that opened automatically as soon as they approached.

Inside, there was a large ballroom filled with tables covered in white tablecloths and fancy chandeliers hanging from the ceiling. At the far end of the room stood a stage where a band played soft music. Several guests were already seated at the tables, while others mingled around, chatting amongst themselves.

The staff member led them towards one of the tables in the center of the room. "This is your table, sir. Enjoy your evening."

"Thank you very much." Lucifer replied before turning towards the models. "Alright, ladies. Time to mingle."

The models nodded their heads and began spreading out throughout the ballroom. Each of them approached different groups of people and engaged them in conversation. They were social butterflies who knew how to work a room. It was like second nature to them. And soon enough, they were surrounded by men trying to flirt with them.

While the models were busy making small talk, Lucifer looked around the room. He saw several famous celebrities chatting among themselves while drinking champagne. There were also numerous wealthy businessmen and entrepreneurs mingling together. And there were even some politicians present too. All of them looked very important and powerful.

"So, Claire, who are those people?" Lucifer asked as he stared at one group in particular. "They seem to be the center of attention right now."

Claire gave a look in the direction where Lucifer was pointing and replied, "Oh, that's Mr. Oliver Davidson. He owns several popular restaurants around the world. And that man next to him is Mr. Henry Phillips. He's the CEO of a major pharmaceutical company.

And the lady beside them is Ms. Cindy Lewis. She's a famous actress who has starred in many movies."

"I see..." Lucifer murmured while observing each person carefully. "What about those people over there?"

He pointed towards another group consisting of two men and three women. One of the men was tall and muscular, with short brown hair and blue eyes. The other one was handsome, with blond hair and green eyes. Both wore expensive suits that fit their bodies perfectly. As for the women, they were all beautiful. They had long legs and curvy figures.

Each of them wore a different-colored dress that matched their hair color.

"Those are Mr. Samuel Jones and Mr. William Brown." Claire explained. "Mr. Jones is the CEO of a construction company, while Mr. Brown is a successful entrepreneur who owns several shopping malls around the country.

As for the women with them, they're the wives of these two men. And the last one is Miss Emily Brown. She's the daughter of Mr. Brown. She recently graduated from college and decided to join her father's business."

"You sure know a lot about these people." Lucifer said as he turned towards Claire. "Is there anything else you'd like to share?"

Claire smiled and replied, "Well... There's a rumor going around that Mr. Davidson is having an affair with Ms. Lewis. It's said that they've been secretly dating for several months now. Although nobody has any proof yet, it wouldn't surprise me if it turned out to be true.

And I heard that Mr. Jones used to date Mr. Brown's wife, Linda, back when they were in college. They broke up because Linda fell in love with William instead. However, rumors say that they still keep meeting behind his back. As for Ms.

Emily, she recently got engaged to her boyfriend, Luke Parker. He's the son of Mr. Brown's best friend."

Lucifer chuckled and shook his head. "Interesting... I wonder what else you know about these people. You seem to be quite knowledgeable about their personal lives."

"It's a part of our job, sir." Claire answered with a smile. "We have to keep track of such information if we want to maintain a good reputation in the industry. Otherwise, if we make mistakes and get involved in scandals of any sort, then it could ruin our business completely. This is the world of glamor and fame. Everyone wants to be rich and famous.

But not everyone can handle the pressure that comes with it. Any little mistake can destroy your career overnight. So we have to be careful at all times."

Lucifer nodded his head and agreed with Claire's statement. 'Indeed, this is indeed the world of glamor and fame... But they don't know what's hiding underneath this beautiful facade.' He thought as he looked around the room again. 'There are so many secrets being kept hidden here. Secrets that could ruin their lives forever if revealed. It's a dark world full of lies and deceit.

And I am part of it now. It will be exciting to see how things unfold from here on out.'

"Well then, shall we get started? These people seem good enough for us to approach them first." Lucifer said as he grabbed a glass of champagne from a passing waiter. "It doesn't matter if they have secrets or not. All we need to do is charm them into becoming our clients. I am sure they wouldn't want to ruin their current lifestyle and would do anything to keep everything under control.

So, we don't have to worry much about these things. Mom would've done the same thing, right?"

"Yes. Mrs. Reynolds didn't care about such matters either." Claire replied. "She only cared about success. She used every opportunity she had to promote herself and the agency. And she didn't hesitate to use people, either. always-on-MvLeMpYr

That's how she became so successful. However, there were times when such scandals almost caused great damage to our agency, but Mrs. Reynolds always found a way to resolve things in our favor."

"I see... In that case, I'll make sure to learn from her." Lucifer declared confidently as he gulped down his drink. "Let's go and win some hearts tonight, shall we?"

The moment Lucifer finished speaking, he walked towards the nearest group of people while holding a glass of champagne in his hand. As soon as they saw him approaching, everyone stopped talking and turned towards him.

"Good evening, everyone. I'm Lucifer Reynolds. I am pleased to meet you all." Lucifer greeted them with a charming smile.

It was the group of Mr. Jones and Mr. Brown, along with their wives and daughter. The muscular man looked at Lucifer with interest, but the handsome man gave him a polite nod before speaking, "Pleased to meet you too. My name is Samuel Jones. And this is my wife, Jessica.

Beside her is my good friend William Brown, together with his wife, Linda, and daughter, Emily."

"Nice to meet you." Lucifer replied as he shook hands with each person. He then gestured towards Claire and said, "This is my secretary, Claire Winters."

The group greeted Claire before turning their attention back to Lucifer.

Lucifer smiled at them and asked, "I hope I'm not interrupting anything important. But I wanted to introduce myself since we haven't met before. Plus, I was hoping to get a chance to chat with everyone. This is my first time attending such an event after assuming my position as the managing director of Miracle Model Agency. So please forgive me if I say or do anything wrong."

"Of course not." Mr. Brown answered as he stepped forward. "We were just discussing some random topics. Nothing important. So, you are the new managing director of Miracle Model Agency? I didn't expect someone so young to be in charge."

"Hmmm... Miracle Model Agency? Are you perhaps related to Mrs. Lisa Reynolds?" Mr. Jones inquired while raising an eyebrow.

Lucifer nodded his head and answered, "Yes. I am her son."

"That explains it..." Mr. Brown commented with a laugh. "It's no wonder you became the new managing director of Miracle Model Agency under your mother. I have heard quite a lot about her bold decision making skills and ability to get things done without hesitation. It's just that we didn't get to meet each other yet."

Lucifer smiled and said, "Thank you for saying such kind words about my mother. She really deserves every bit of praise that she receives."

"Speaking of which, where is Mrs. Reynolds? Is she not attending this event?" Mr. Jones inquired further while looking around the room. "I thought she would be here too."

Lucifer shook his head and replied, "She is overseas on business right now. So she couldn't make it today. But I am sure she will be happy to meet you all when she returns."

"Oh, that's unfortunate." Mr. Brown commented. "Well, we'll look forward to seeing her soon then."

With that said, everyone resumed their conversation. Lucifer listened to them talk about various topics, such as politics, economics, business, and so on. While he was engaged in the conversation, Lucifer noticed Jessica gazing at him from time to time. She seemed to be very interested in him.
