Life at the Top

It was a guest list with more than 100 guests, most of whom Jasper did not recognize. Fortunately, their identities were stated beside their names.

It was just like Jon had expected. There were only a couple of small fries and no one formidable on the guest list at all.

Ted felt a little embarrassed. “Mr. Laine, these are all we could contact. They’re mostly presidents from chambers of commerce here and there, and some of them had also applied for an invite with us. After sifting through, these are who we have left.”

Jasper glanced at the screen and suddenly raised his hand to point at two names. “Ben Hull and Lisa Gardner, how did they get in?”

Ted immediately replied, “The Turner family brought them in.”

Watching the change in Jasper’s expression carefully, Ted asked, “Should I remove them?”

Jasper gave a small smile. “Leave them, they’re the children of the president and vice president of the Haddock Chamber of Commerce in the Waterhoof City branch. I’d say they borderline qualify.”

Ted let out a sigh of relief.

After reading the guest list, Jasper then spoke, “It’s mostly alright, but there are too many of them. Excluding the people we’ve all decided should remain on the list, cut down two-thirds of everyone else and leave around 70 to 80 of them.”

Ted was stunned. “Isn’t that too little people, Mr. Laine?”
