The rest of the party was, regretably, rather dull. There were a few performances by musicians, as well as a few demonstrations by different individuals with rudementary talents in magic to show off for the magically challenged business men in the room.
Such as a demonstration from the host himself, which just so happened to be Mister Bloom, where he turned an apple to gold. That was trick that they liked very much, even if he was only able to do it once.
Valerie watched and listened, she talked and socialised. She even attended a few additional meetings, and volunteered Jason for even more, with 'investors' and other kinds who were interested in powerful players.
But after her outburst against Kaleigh, really nothing could compare. At least in Valerie's mind. To these people, who were clamouring over a simple gold plated apple, it was an event they quickly forgot about and dismissed.
