Zoe watched Wesley closely and said earnestly, "Mr. Donovan, all the other students have brought their parents. Do you really want Athena to be the only one here without hers?" Her words made Wesley clench his teeth. "Alright then. Zoe, please lead the way."
Zoe guided Wesley and his family into the hall, across the red carpet, and over to the main table near the stage.
Then, she addressed the people already seated, "Attention please allow me to introduce you. This is Athena's father, mother, brother, and sister."
The people at the main table were all influential figures. They had never encountered someone as unremarkable as Wesley.
They cast a brief, indifferent glance at the Donovan family, nodded slightly, and then turned away to resume their
conversations.
The Donovan family felt the disdain in the air. They didn't greet anyone, instead scanning the room, trying to spot Athena.
"Mr. and Mrs. Donovan, please have a seat," Zoe said with a smile. "Athena will be here soon."
"Thank you." Wesley replied, barely maintaining his composure as he guided Claire to a seat.
There were just enough chairs to seat all I four of them at the table

But Wesley grabbed his shoulder and whispered, "Calm down. I'll call Athena and see where she is."
He had no idea that as soon as he pulled out his phone, a student would shout in excitement, "Hey, look at this! What kind of phone is that? I've never seen anything like it before."
Zoe's group jumped at chance to join in.
