Larry heard of the legend too, which has it that every family who took a Ferris wheel together would be together forever, so he hopped into the gondola excitedly.
The ride ended soon. They were about to head home when Finnick realized Vivian and Larry hadn't had lunch as they were too busy having fun.
Hence, they went to a restaurant and filled their tummies up before heading home.
A few days later, it was time for the dinner party. Vivian put on a newly bought blue evening dress while Finnick wore a smart suit with a blue tie to match Vivian's dress.
"Daddy, Mommy, where are you going?" Larry inquired curiously when he saw his parents all dressed up.
"We're going to join a party in our company today,” Vivian bent down and explained to Larry.
"Can I go, too?"
Larry wanted to join them as his parents looked stunning in their outfits.
Alas, they were going to a formal dinner party in the company instead of the amusement park. It was impractical to bring Larry along.
Larry pouted after hearing her explanation and muttered to himself unhappily. "Fine, I won't go."
Vivian found his reaction hilarious, but she didn't laugh out loud lest Larry got more upset.
"Larry, I will bring you along next time, alright?"
One day, Larry would attend an important event where Finnick would announce Larry as his
successor.
At once, Larry's eyes lit up while nodding profusely. He said nothing as Finnick and Vivian left the house with their hands tightly clasped together.
He then went upstairs to continue his revision.
I've taken a day off yesterday, so I can't play with my toys today.
"Finnick, will there be many people attending the party?" Vivian was nervous as this was the first time she had ever attended such a party.
If there was a huge crowd at the party, she would keep her lips zipped and maintain a polite smile throughout the whole night.
Vivian was afraid of bringing trouble to Finnick's company if she said something inappropriate at
the party.
