Julian Shaw prepared for the wedding in perfect order.
The specific date of the wedding had already been set too. It would take place in one week. However, Julian had yet to announce the wedding to the public except for those who were closest to them.
The guest list was still being drafted. He would notify the guests three days in advance when the guest list was fully drafted.
Julian and Susan Shelby were still discussing and planning the guest list slowly while the arrangements for the wedding were being carried out one by one as well.
Over on the other side, Joseph Shaw had finally filled up the huge debt of 100 million. Then he figured out a way to fork out a sum of money to pull in public relations favors from everywhere to rectify public opinion with great effort.
However, it was indecent for him to be constantly involved in public conflicts.
Joseph met up with Luke Jenkins to discuss bringing forward the wedding date straightforwardly. They wanted to use the grand wedding to divert the public's attention.
Luke considered for a moment before he agreed.
Joseph and Charlotte wedding arrangements entered the countdown phase as well. Both families had begun extending invitations to the guests as well.
"The guest list has been drafted. It should be fine to hand out three days in advance." The two families discussed and sent out the invitation cards.
Joseph and Charlotte sent out the invitation cards to the reputable personnel in Ningcheng City. The Jenkins were also one of the four powerful families in the city. It was Charlotte’s wedding after all so these people would need to show due respect to the family.
"By then, everyone will be gathered at the wedding. This is a very good opportunity to expand your connections so you can trade in Ningcheng City," said Luke.
"That’s true." Joseph nodded in agreement.
His marriage with Charlotte was precisely due to the Jenkins family being an old powerful family which would be very helpful for him to make connections within Ningcheng City.
As they were chatting, all of a sudden, a housekeeper dashed into the room in a rush.
"What's the matter? Why are you so flustered?" Luke furrowed his brows.
"Young master. Mr. Carter from Skywing Corporation suddenly sent someone to inform us that he can't attend the wedding," said the housekeeper anxiously.
"Can't attend?" Luke raised an eyebrow. "It’s possible that he has something important to do instead. It’s fine, we won't miss him."
Before Luke’s voice died away, another housekeeper charged into the room. "Young master, Mr. Long from Woodleaf Corporation sent someone to inform us that he can't attend the wedding."
"Mr. Long is not coming as well?" Luke was stunned for a moment.
Before he could react to the situation, a third housekeeper dashed into the room.
"Who else is not coming again?" An ominous presentiment had already arisen in Luke's heart.
The housekeeper let out a forced laugh and said in one breath, "Mr. Allen from Kingfisher Corporation, M r. Walsh from Linsey Corporation... They are all not coming."
The housekeeper called out the names of over ten people in one breath.
Luke could not help pulling a long face!
It was considered rather normal for one or two people not to attend.
It was absolutely a huge problem for so many people t o inform them that they were not coming all of a sudden.
"Young master, a few more people sent over their people to inform us that they are not coming." The housekeepers were still reporting without stopping.
Luke's expression turned grimmer and grimmer. "No need to report to me anymore. Make a list of the people that aren't attending and I’ll check it out later."
The housekeepers backed out from the room.
"Mr. Jenkins, what is going on?" Joseph was rather astonished.
"Let me make a call." Luke nodded toward Joseph, then he made the call swiftly.
"Hello. Mr. Long, do you have anything to attend to on the 10th of January? Why aren't you attending all of a sudden?"
