Two hours later, Xander stepped through the doors of the mansion as he loosened his tie.
He had gotten a bit delayed and returned home late.
The gala would be starting in two and a half hours, and yet they hadn't left the mansion. Thinking about being late as the host, he was a bit frustrated.
"Is the Madam prepared?" he asked the butler as he walked towards the elevator.
"Yes, the styling team just left thirty minutes ago. She is done!" the butler answered respectfully, and Xander sighed with relief.
Women tend to take longer when dressing up than men. He understood that part pretty well. After all, his ex-wife used to drive him crazy about how she would take ages with the process.
She loved these events more than her children. One of the major reasons why they ended up getting divorced.
Thinking about her, his mind couldn't help but drift towards his children.
