A professional film crew was on hand to document the entire event, ensuring Kody could later watch every moment of Carrie's performance without missing a beat.

When the passengers finally disembarked, their collective presence was dazzling, effortlessly drawing every gaze.
There was no denying it-the Morrison family possessed striking looks and an innate elegance. Even Luca and Kody, though older, carried themselves with timeless charm-one with the refined allure of a cultured gentleman, the other with the magnetic poise of a silver-haired aristocrat.
Across the street, the Herrera family arrived in a single Maybach business car-a gift from Kristopher to Bernie, similar to Kody's car.

"Mrs. Herrera, your family really knows how to make every seat count. With such an expensive car, it'd be a shto leave any space unused." "Maybe you should get a pet, Mrs. Herrera-wouldn't want any seat to go to waste." "My family can't afford something that pricey, but at least we've got enough cars. Even the housekeeper has her own for grocery runs."
"The Herreras are treating their business car like an like an RV saves on hotel rooms when they travel!"
Laughter followed, light and cutting.
A small group of well-dressed socialites stood nearby, their words laced with sarcasm as they chatted amongst themselves.
