I am the Entertainment Tycoon

Everyone got a piece of cake and sweets.

The cake had Theo's favorite flavor.

Chocolate with coconut.

Theo and the rest took a seat as they ate the cake.

"Great speech, you guys!" Sayuri commented.

"Yeah, I was tearing up when I heard!" June exclaimed.

"Of course! Look who you're talking about." Ayia boasted with a playful face.

"I was going to boast. But after seeing Ayia showing off so blatantly, I decided to be quiet." Sam commented.

"Sam-chan, you can't say that!" Ayia exclaimed.

The others laughed with the girl's exchange of words.

"Why did you come to Elffire City, Ryoko-san?" June asked after a while.

Ryoko was surprised by the question.

So far, she loved Theo's birthday party.

She was able to meet nice and pleasant people and eat great food.

She was in love with the food, by the way.

Ryoko had never eaten something so delicious.

She came from a not-well-off family, and after her mother died, she had to sustain herself.

So, Ryoko never had the opportunity to eat food cooked by a professional cook.

And obviously, she loved it.

But what she was more shocked at the birthday party was her boss.

She figured out that her boss was the head chef of a famous restaurant in Elffire City! 

Ryoko personally experienced Theo's capabilities in animation just a few hours ago when he processed the evaluation of over 10 thousand drawing frames in just 45 minutes.

And through her knowledge, she could see that his judgment was perfect!

Therefore, getting to know that not only Theo was a genius animator, but he also was a talented cook made the blue-haired girl in shock.

She wondered how he found the time to study so many occupations.

She was also sure of her evaluation of Theo's character after seeing so many people being grateful to him.

It seemed that her boss was loved by everyone.

"Hmm, I had an internship at a company in Sakura City. Some problems happened, and I was fired. I could not get a job in Sakura City afterward. So, after getting to know Theo's company, I came here in search of a job. Theo hired me after a test." Ryoko replied without giving too many details.

She didn't want people to know what she went through, she didn't want to be pitied.

"And I have to say that Ryoko is one of the most talented people I have ever seen!"

"After seeing such a talent I directly offered her a job as head director." Theo explained with a smile.

"Wow! To earn a compliment like that from you, she must be talented indeed!" Ayia commented.

"Yeah, you must be awesome, Ryoko-san!" Shoko exclaimed.

Ryoko blushed hard when she heard her boss and the girls' compliments.

She could not help it, although she was a confident and calm boss to her employees, she was still shy deep inside.

Even more, after being complimented by so many people.

The others laughed when they saw Ryoko blushing.

"Oh my god! You are so red!" Sam exclaimed.

"She's blushing!" Sayuri laughed.

"You are so cute!" Ayia exclaimed as she proceeded to pinch Ryoko's cheeks.

"Ayia is attacking someone again!"

"I think she doesn't even plan to release the hostage this time."

"That's exactly what I was thinking!"

They continued to drink and talk throughout the night.

At some moment, the other guest started to leave.

Theo said goodbye to each one of them.

When it was 11:30 pm, there were only a few people left.

They were.

Ayia, Shizuka, Sam, Sayuri, June, Ryoko, Kimiko, Shoko, Lauren, Max, Gwen, and Kin.

And obviously, Theo and Aurora.

Aurora's friends went home too as they had class tomorrow morning.

But Aurora already invited them to go over to her house next weekend.

The girls were excited to have a sleepover at Aurora's house, so they readily agreed on it.

They were drinking and talking by the side of the lake when Ayia suddenly exclaimed, "I want to have a house tour!"

"Oh my god! How could we forget? We have to tour around the house!" Sam exclaimed.

"Good one, Ayia-chan!" Shoko said with enthusiasm.

"Come on, Theo, show us!"

"Yeah, we want to see your house!"

"I have never been in a mansion; I want to tour around one!"

"Aurora-chan, tell your brother to show us your house!"

They started asking again and again.

Theo could only shake his head and laugh when he saw that.

"You guys can see the house, but who's going to talk is Aurora." Theo replied with a playful smile.

He wasn't in the mood to introduce the whole house again, so he figured out Aurora would serve the job.

Aurora was surprised when she heard that, but her eyes shined with enthusiasm.

She thought it would be fun to show the house to them.

"Okay, I am the tour guide Aurora Grey, it's nice to have you guys here this evening!" Aurora said while imitating a professional voice as she stood up.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Tour Guide!" Ayia exclaimed.

They laughed at their goofiness as they stood up too.

​ They were excited about the house tour.

Aurora started by introducing them to the whole backyard.

They walked around the lane that surrounded the lake.

At a certain moment, Ayia pulled Shizuka to the side and whispered, "Shizu-chan, I need you to cover for me later. I will try to get Theo alone so that I can give my gift to him."

"You? Alone with him?" Shizuka whispered back.

"Yes! Please, Shizu-chan!" Ayia pleaded in a low voice.

"Okay, but can you do it?" Shizuka replied in a defeated voice after thinking she would not able to stop her sister.

"Yes, I just need everyone distracted for a moment so that they don't notice that we disappeared for a while." Ayia replied with an excited whisper.

She was glad that her sister agreed to help with her plan, or it would be much more difficult to get Theo alone.

The two combined a plan in whispers.

They decided that Shizuka would try to ask Aurora to order Sylph to do something, and while everyone was distracted with Sylph, Ayia would get Theo away from the rest.

The girls only had to wait for the perfect moment to get the plan in motion.

Aurora continued the tour and everyone was amazed by her house.

When they heard the lake was artificial and it was basically a heated lake, they went nuts.

They went through all the sections on the ground floor.

When Ryoko saw that Theo had a complete animation studio in his house, she was in shock.

She could not imagine the amount of money necessary to do something like that.

The girls loved the relaxation section the most.

They loved the spa features and talked about it in excitement.

When they arrived on the second floor, Aurora started by showing her makeup room.

"Oh my god! This room is perfect!" Sayuri exclaimed.

"Yes!" 

The girls were super excited when they the makeup room.

Even Ayia forgot about her mission.

It was only after they got out of the makeup room that she remembered.

But the perfect opportunity appeared when Aurora showed the cinema room.

They all were amazed by it and in their distraction, Ayia took Theo's arm and said in a low voice, "Can you come with me, please?" 

Theo, who was just enjoying the tour, was stunned by her question.

He nodded his head and he was instantly pulled by Ayia out of the room.

Even though he was surprised, he was curious about what Ayia wanted to say.

Ayia's heart was beating wildly as she pulled Theo.

Would she be able to do it?
