92 Strategies at the Soiree
The gala, masterminded by Lennox, was the talk of the town. The lavish affair, meant as a welcome-
back celebration, had drawn a crowd that surpassed all expectations. It was a who’s who of the
business world, with everyone eager for a glimpse of the man of the hour and his groundbreaking Al
project.
Inga, now part of Emma’s entourage, couldn’t hide her astonishment at the turnout. “He’s just in AI Is
he really worth this fuss?” she muttered, barely concealing her disdain. Emma, however, understood
the gravity of Lennox’s presence better. “He’s not just any AI developer, Inga. His tech could change
the game, and everyone here knows it,” she responded, her eyes scanning the room with a strategic
mind.
Jada, always one step ahead, chimed in, “Lennox is more than his tech. His family connections alone.
are enough to draw a crowd like this. People aren’t just after his project; they’re after his network.”
As the trio navigated the sea of guests, Inga split off, her ambition guiding her towards potential allies.
Emma and Jada continued their reconnaissance, evaluating the room’s dynamics. “Everyone’s looking
for the ideal partner, including Lennox,” Emma noted. “Tonight’s about more than mingling -it’s about
finding our next move.”
Their conversation was interrupted when Emma’s gaze landed on a familiar face–her brother, mingling
with ease among the high–profile guests. Jada caught the direction of Emma’s gaze and teased,

Emma shot back with a playful grin, “Or perhaps it’s your missed opportunity. Should I call him over?
Jada, flustered, quickly brushed off the suggestion. “No, let’s focus on the task at hand. We’ve got
bigger fish to fry.”
As they continued their rounds, Emma’s eyes locked onto a particularly intriguing sight–Lennox deep in
conversation with Alex. The familiarity between them was unmistakable. Emma stopped in her tracks,
pondering the implications. Jada, puzzled by Emma’s hesitation, nudged her for an explanation.
“That’s Alex with Lennox. Their interaction speaks volumes. He might just be the partner Lennox ist
looking for,” Emma murmured, a strategic glint in her eye. The revelation shifted Emma’s approach,

Understanding dawned on Jada. “So, what’s our play now?”
Emma’s response was calculated, “We wait, observe, and adapt. Tonight’s about more than just
forming alliances. It’s about understanding where we stand in this evolving game.”
As the evening progressed, Emma and Jada maneuvered through the crowd, gathering insights and
forging subtle connections. With each interaction, Emma’s reputation as a shrewd businesswoman was
solidified. Her effortless charm and keen intellect left a lasting impression on those she

Meanwhile, Inga, unaware of the shifting tides, continued her solo quest for recognition, oblivious to the
undercurrents at play. The gala was more than just a social gathering–it was a battleground for the
astute, and Emma was proving to be a master of the art
