"The car is ready for you, Sir." The man in the black suit stated while Nolan sighed, he had been standing in front of the mirror making sure his suit and hair were all in order. This was Yonders after all, he knew full well the expectations that came from such an affluent town. He still remembered the parties he attended when he was younger and some who made an impression for all the wrong reasons and suddenly the invitations to all the hottest parties disappeared for them. "Preston, as I've told you multiple times, please just call me Nolan. My father may have insisted this formality when he was in charge but there is no need for such formality with me." Nolan continued fiddling with his tie before getting frustrated and tossing it aside. Sometimes he wished his parents had gotten more than one child maybe then he could have lived in peace...though the money was certainly nice. "Of course Nolan, sir." Preston had his mischievous smile on his face and once again made it clear that despite Nolan wanting to eliminate such formalities, Preston wasn't about to do so any time soon. <br/>
<br/>
Once Nolan was satisfied he followed Preston through the sizable mansion and out towards the front door where his mother was waiting. She had been so distraught after losing his father in such a manner that she really had clung to her son and only remaining connection to her dearly departed husband. It's not like the mansion wasn't big enough for the two of them so it only made sense that Nolan returned to his childhood home. "Mother, is everything okay?" Nolan was curious wondering she was waiting there for him when she knew full well where he was going. She simply smiled and reached out straightening his jacket and tie. "You look very handsome, Nolan. Your father would be so proud of the man you've become. Give Kim my best for me will you? She's such a wonderful young lady...it's such a shame you two never worked out I really liked her. Well, it's too late now..." Nolan chuckled and hugged his mother "I'll make sure to pass it along. I'm sure she'll be delighted to hear it. She's been excited since I got back I think it'll be nice to see her again even after all this time." Nolan gave his mother a kiss on the cheek and headed out the door to the blacked-out BMW and strapped himself in, in the back seat as it drove off. It was almost bittersweet being back in Yonders and especially going to his ex-girlfriend's engagement party. Though they had stayed friends since the break up he wondered if she had been serious when she begged him not to leave her. That they could make the distance work, long-distance relationships almost never work and he didn't want to go through that ordeal. A clean break was what he needed and it had felt admittedly great to do so even if he still cared for Kim. <br/>
<br/>
Some of his friends insisted she never stopped having feelings for him, but surely that had to be in the past now right? This was her engagement party no less and he was genuinely looking forward to meeting her fiance Nick. He had heard quite a bit about him after all though he worried that things might be tense at first given the history between the two. Kim was also insistent that she needed to introduce him to some people since he was now the head of Cerberus the Cyber Security firm his father started. As the car approached it was already clear there was a massive party about to happen. Of course, she did, everything was grand with Kim that certainly had never changed. Once he stepped out the BMW drove away and would return to pick him up once the party was over. Nolan went inside and immediately had a server at his side offering a glass of champagne a word of welcome. Nolan walked around scanning the crowd for anyone he knew he heard that oh so recognizable voice. "Nolan! You made it!"</div></div></div>
