Chapter 61
**Acacia Point of View**
"My apologies, Milady but I did not get your meaning." For the first time in months of us knowing Azar, this is the longest he spoke.
Not to forget, he even spoke dumbly.
"Azar, what is there to not understand? We are doing a huge promotional activity at the launching ceremony of our Dawn Bicycles."
"What is a promotional activity?" Azar asked curiously as if I spoke in an alien language.
Advantages of having a business operation in this kingdom were the production was alarmingly fast due to their magical powers and all the most common things in my world are mind blowing inventions here.
Disadvantage was these people don't know basics of conducting trade but they still have their eyes high up in another galaxy.
I shook my head in disbelief and looked at Eelk, who took the hint and proceeded to explain with a proud smirk.
"Sir Azar, you don't even know what a promotional activity is? Let me tell you what it is. It is an activity conducted to introduce our goods to the public and also a medium for capitalist to meet and make connections with customers and potentials for the future." Ah, the very negligibly seen competition between Eelk and Azar was always fun to watch.
Don't know when it started and how, but these two are a little childish when it comes to compositing against each other to see who is more capable and reliable to be my subordinate.
Eelk, for him to show this side of him was nothing unexpected but Azar; why would he lower his proud nose full of male ego air to be a reliable person to me?
Azar snorted almost inaudibly and turned his glare towards Eelk and said he knew that much and doesn't need Eelk to tell him something so simple.
"Alright now, both of you stop fighting. The invitations are ready, so get the list of guests from Mr. Letos and send them along with the small gift we prepared." I waved my hands off for them to make a move and get the work at hand done.
Now that the launching was getting nearer, the tasks to complete have piled into a huge mountain. No matter how many of us are on it, the pile just seems to not decrease.
Dawn Incorporation.
This is the name that I dream of making everyone know. Even a child of one year old should know what Dawn Incorporation is.
Although I started it with two wheel automobiles, I have an idea to spread the wings of Dawn into other business opportunities as well.
In time...
Slowly, one step at a time, I will.
The people from these kingdom, I don't trust their judgment. Now, they take Igses as their prince but in future who know how many would rebel against him because he came out from a human womb.
I do have plans on escaping this place with Igses but who knows what future holds for us. If someone told me I would be imprisoned and stuck here a couple of years ago, I would've even laughed in my dreams.
Since future is not predictable, not only for myself but to give Igses a strong backing, I need to make Dawn Incorporation the best everywhere.
Dawn will be the kingdom that will be started by me, extended and handled by Igses in future.
A kingdom of his own.
Where no one can judge him nor can anyone have unconstructive effect on him.
My little man will, should and deserves to live a life of freedom with only necessary ethics holding him back and nothing or no one else.
"Igses, my little man, you should grow up freely and have a good life." I bent over the crib and kissed his waving hand. "Don't worry; mamma will give you right platform so you can build yourself. One day, if we couldn't escape this place and realize we are stuck here forever, we don't have to live in the discerning eyes of hypocrisy."
I rubbed my nose over his small palm and relaxed a bit when his baby scent wafted in my nose.
As if he understood every alphabet I spoke, he hum-sang with a fierce determination in his eyes and an assurance on his lips.
"Good. Let's get Mrs. Leto to get you some beautiful clothes for the launching event. After all, my Igses is also the main person there." Saying, I blew berries on his stomach causing him to laugh out loudly.
His laugh was enough to calm my nerves, seriously.
He is the most unexpected but also most treasured gift I was given.
The next day, Mrs. Leto brought dozens of clothing material with different designs to make clothes for Igses. Since I have no idea how to stitch, Mrs. Leto and a couple of her assistances shall do that for me.
I didn't want readymade clothes or clothes made by outsiders for Igses for now so Mrs. Leto thankfully said she was a great seamstress.
As for me, they got a team of famous seamstress to make some casual and party gowns.
Days went by so fast that I did not even realize twenty days passed by just in a blink. The arrangements for the launching ceremony were nearly done.
The arena was set, the decoration and sitting arrangements were done. The food shall make the guests go crazy.
And last but not the least, the purchase and pre-order slots were orderly set up by Mister Aguelli and his assistant.
"How's it going with the guests resting place?" I asked Eelk when I saw him speed walking around with lots on his plate to do.
"Extra tents were arranged as per your orders, Milady. Everything in the resting area was going well. The refreshments and snacks were already given."
Thanks to Circe looking after Igses, I was able to run about the whole palace like my tail was on fire.
"Is Azar already there entertaining the guests?"
"Yes, Milady. Mister Aguelli is also at the ceremony arena and was doing a good job in controlling the crowd."
That's great.
"Milady, you have you calm your heart and relax. Drink this and calm yourself. We will do everything for you." Mrs. Leto came just in time with one of her bitter soups to calm by racing and anxious heart.
However, what she said warmed my heart and calmed me even without drinking that bitter drink. Wordlessly, I drank the soup since I know complaints will never work with her.
She can even force the liquid down my throat if necessary.
"Mrs. Leto, the food."
"Food was made under my supervision and as per your orders and recipes. I've already tasted everything so the lunch banquet will fascinate people's taste buds."
Wonderful!
"Thank you, Mrs. Leto. Whatever am I going to do without you all?" How such an indifferent person changed into a warm aunt!
"Wait, why aren't you ready yet?" I held her hands and looked at her simple daily wear with an apron over it.
"Milady, what am I going to do there? Letos is already going over." She said in a low tone with a small rare smile.
"What do you mean by that? Mr. Letos is Mr. Letos and you are you. Of course you should come with us. Go and change into the new gown prepared for you. We have to leave in few minutes, Mrs. Leto. Hurry." I clapped and pushed her inside and forced her to change into new set of clothes.
Half an hour later, we are all ready to leave for the arena where the launching ceremony was being held. I already got the report that most of the invited guests along with their family were already there.
Igses was in upgraded pram where he was looking around and moving his limbs as excited as I was.
He knew it was a big day for me, doesn't he?
Of course he knows. Look how happy and excited he is.
Soon we reached the arena and the first thing that we saw was how packed it was. Such huge arena of close to four acres was packed to brim.
Looks like those who are uninvited but expected to still attend are here.
A dozen bicycles were placed in different places to give the guests an opportunity to study them. By the side of every such display bicycle were a large bunch of well dressed people laughing and discussing about the small vehicle.
Two employees stood by each display bicycle to make sure the vehicle was not touched and tested before prepared time.
Mister Aguelli and his assistant were going around greeting people politely and giving them brief answers to their questions.
A huge stage was set up in the middle of the arena and the sitting area for the guests was around it.
The moment I stepped in the arena, a guard there announced my arrival and the bustling noisy grounds stilled in silence.
Head held high, with a confident smile, I pushed the pram and walked towards the dais while greeting those on the way.
I felt curious and surprised eyes on me and the small movable box I was pushing. From my peripheral view I noticed that there were a handful of families who brought along their babies as well and the little ones were either held by the family members or the nanny.
The pleasant surprise and envy in their eyes was exactly what I was looking for and to say the pram project I would be launching soon will have ravenous demand can be considered an understatement.
"Eelk, this is how you also promote your next product without even expending to promote." I whispered and walked to the chair arranged for me on the dais.
With an elegant gentle and a confident smile, a sharp gaze and a dominant bearing, I addressed the audience in a loud resonating tone.
"Ladies, Gentlemen and our dearest little adorable guests; welcome to Dawn Incorporation commencing and launching ceremony."
