149.Grand Opening

At the mere sight of instant noodles, she was overcome with a nauseating sensation, feeling thoroughly weary of them.

"Who allows you to neglect yourself so?" Jennie Laura smiled at Tamma Jones as she approached, then gently said, "Come and eat quickly, or it will cool down."

"Yes, Jennie is so kind." Tamma Jones embraced Jennie Laura's face fiercely and kissed it, then cheerfully enjoyed her breakfast.

Before long, Bidegla, having finished washing up, arrived and, seeing Tamma Jones feasting, wished nothing more than to kick her off her seat.

In the past, Shina Macai would snatch Jennie Laura's lovingly prepared breakfast, and now that she was gone, along came Tamma Jones. If the two of them stayed at home together, would there be any left for Bidegla? The leftovers are yours.

"Come and eat together, and we'll go out together when we're done," Jennie Laura beckoned to Bidegla.

"Ah!" Suddenly, Tamma Jones cried out, startling Jennie Laura.

"What's wrong?" Jennie Laura placed her hand on Tamma Jones's back, asking with concern.

"Oh, nothing, it's just that I accidentally bit my tongue," Tamma Jones said, not daring to turn around and look at Bidegla.

"Really talented, to bite your tongue while eating," Bidegla quipped, then sat down at the table, beginning to enjoy Jennie's lovingly prepared breakfast.

"You mind your own business," Tamma Jones grumbled, lifting her head to glare at Bidegla before quickly looking away, lowering her head.

"Jennie, you should eat quickly, or else this little glutton will eat everything," Bidegla said to Jennie Laura, then gave Tamma Jones an unkind glance.

"Then eat quickly." Knowing that there was a big event today, Jennie Laura also began to enjoy her breakfast.

After breakfast, Bidegla changed clothes and started waiting for the two of them in the living room.

Today was a big day, so both of them needed to dress carefully. But girls, of course, take a long time with their makeup and such, and Bidegla almost fell asleep on the sofa before hearing the crisp sound of high heels on the floor.

Raising her head, Bidegla suddenly felt as if her eyes had been illuminated, almost unable to move her gaze, completely awake.

Jennie Laura and Tamma Jones were already stunning beauties, but after careful dressing, their beauty was infinitely magnified, a breathtaking beauty as if fairies had descended to earth.

Jennie Laura wore a white dress that hung down to her thighs, with a pair of pure white knee-high boots. From head to toe, she was dressed in white, like her inner purity.

Her long hair was coiled on top of her head, a pair of crystal pendant earrings hanging on either side of her face, perfectly complementing her noble temperament.

With her gentle smile, she seemed like a noblewoman from ancient times, emanating a kind of beauty that begged to be cherished.

Tamma Jones dressed just as simply, wearing a purple floral dress, much like her name, showing her love for purple.

Her hair, like Jennie Laura's, was coiled on top of her head, with purple earrings that offered a dazzling beauty different from, yet similar to, Jennie Laura's.

Only a true beauty could pull off a coiled hairstyle, and Jennie Laura and Tamma Jones were both such exceptional beauties, attracting the attention of men wherever they went.

"Look at the expression on your face, your eyes are practically falling out," Tamma Jones said to Bidegla, who seemed lost in thought, prompting her to cough and suggest, "Ladies, shall we go out?"

Hearing Bidegla's words, Jennie Laura and Tamma Jones both laughed, but after a slight smile, Tamma Jones averted her gaze, her heart pounding fiercely.

Today, Bidegla did not drive her Lamborghini, but instead took Jennie Laura's Audi, as it offered more space.

Upon arriving at the jewelry store, the staff were already in place, and even Ned Duda's sports car was neatly parked in a designated spot.

The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

Inside the store, everyone was busy and tense, not daring to relax. Outside, a large red carpet had been laid out, and flower baskets were in place, creating a festive atmosphere.

"Ah, you've finally arrived," Ned Duda exclaimed as he emerged from the store.

"Who are these two beautiful ladies, brother? You must introduce them to me," he said to Bidegla with excitement, looking at Jennie Laura and Tamma Jones.

"Duda, don't be ridiculous," Jennie Laura blushed at Ned Duda's comment, which made him laugh heartily.

"Brother," Mordhadi, dressed in a neat suit, stepped out of the store.

"Boss, we've been waiting for you here for a long time," a burly man, Taitwein, approached Bidegla and the others.

"Carry on," Bidegla said, patting Taitwein's shoulder with emphasis.

"Boss, rest assured, even if I die, I won't let a situation like last time happen again," Taitwein said with a simple smile, making Bidegla nod slightly.

Taitwein may not be highly educated, but Bidegla knew he had found the right person based on his dedication and sense of responsibility.

The grand opening ceremony was scheduled for 10 a.m., so there were few people present at the moment, but they were not in a rush, and thus engaged in idle conversation inside the store.

After about an hour, the media reporters were the first to arrive, followed by the gradual arrival of other guests.

Ned Duda had sent out invitations for the jewelry store opening the day before, inviting either celebrities or high-ranking officials; the common people didn't stand a chance of receiving an invitation.

"Junior Brother," a Bentley pulled up in front of the jewelry store, and Stuart Buzer emerged with a smile on his face, followed by Shadow Dread in formal attire.

"Senior Brother," Bidegla hurried to greet Stuart Buzer.

"I didn't expect you to be so well-prepared. It must have cost quite a bit, eh?" Stuart Buzer smiled and then took out a gift box from his car, handing it to Bidegla, saying, "This is a piece of Tian Shan Snow Lotus collected by my senior brother. Consider it a congratulatory gift."

"Senior brother, you should keep something like this for yourself to use, no need to give gifts," Bidegla quickly refused.

"What are you talking about? This grand opening is for celebration. Please accept it, or else I'll get angry," Stuart Buzer said sternly, feigning anger.

"Thank you for your kind gesture, senior brother," Bidegla smiled as he accepted the gift box. Although the contents inside were just precious medicinal herbs for ordinary people, since Stuart Buzer was using it as a gift, how could it be ordinary?

"Master, please come inside," Bidegla then turned his attention to Shadow Dread.

"Since your senior brother has given a gift, I cannot be stingy. You are starting a business, and I support you. This is the support I'm giving you," said Shadow Dread as he took out a bank card from his pocket, startling Bidegla.

He had never thought of asking his master for money, even though he didn't have much at the moment. But given time, he would surely be wealthy.

"Don't worry, this is a congratulatory gift from me. There's not much money inside," Shadow Dread said, then threw the card directly into Bidegla's hands and went inside the store with Stuart Buzer.

After that, various luxury cars began to arrive one after another, as if they had all coordinated to arrive at the same time.

The second to arrive was Morton Duda and his wife. He was the secretary of the municipal party committee of Zhuhai City, so when he got out of the car, the reporters immediately surrounded him, snapping photos non-stop.

"Bidegla, this is our congratulatory gift, please accept it," Morton Duda took a large gift box from his secretary and handed it to Bidegla with a smile.

"Thank you for your kind gesture, uncle," Bidegla smiled and then handed the gift over to Taitwein and the others to take care of.

More people arrived behind them, including mayors, deputy mayors, and various department heads, all of whom came to congratulate Bidegla, treating him very warmly.

These people were all influential figures in Zhuhai City. Now, they had all come here to offer their congratulations.

Following them were some local business owners, such as the chairmen of various corporations and companies. There were so many people that Bidegla felt like he was about to smile his face off. Most of the people who came, he didn't even know, but as the saying goes, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." If others smile, he had to smile along.

Fortunately, Jennie Laura and the others finally noticed Bidegla's awkward situation and came to accompany him in welcoming the arriving guests.

Many entrepreneurs came, at least at the level of general managers. As for those of lower status, they were not qualified to attend the opening ceremony of the jewelry store and could only lament their inferior position.

The space outside the jewelry store was already filled with various luxury vehicles, even affecting traffic. But with so many important figures gathered here, the traffic police could only temporarily block the road to ensure a smooth opening for Jennie Bide Jewelry.

With so many people coming, a large crowd quickly gathered. Bidegla had lost count of how many gifts he had received, and his hands were starting to feel tired.

"Bidegla," at this point, a middle-aged man squeezed into the crowd and came to Bidegla's side.

This person arrived on foot, without even a retinue or a car to accompany them.

"Uncle Simona, how did you come?" Bidegla hurriedly greeted the newcomer, feeling ashamed for forgetting to invite him yesterday.

Although Uncle Simona's status was not as high as anyone else present, he had been the one who helped Bidegla the most during his university days. Without him, Bidegla might not even be alive today.

"I saw the news on TV yesterday and learned about your store opening, so I came here without warning. I hope I'm not causing any inconvenience to you," Simona's expression was somewhat unnatural as he looked at Bidegla. He could tell that today's attendees were all important figures, and he had no right to stand among them.

"How could that be? Uncle Simona, I am so happy that you could come. I was so busy yesterday that I forgot to invite you. You won't blame me, will you?" Bidegla said apologetically.

"No, of course not," Simona quickly shook his head and said, "If you don't blame me, I am already content."
