Chapter 242 A sh Of Dates
Julian Shaw prepared for the wedding in perfect order.
The specific date of the wedding had already been set too. It would take ce 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 nning 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 rtions 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 noting 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 noting again?" An ominous presentiment had already arisen in Luke''s heart.
The housekeeper let out a forcedugh and said in one breath, "Mr. Allen from Kingfisher
Corporation, M r. Walsh from Linsey Corporation... They are all noting."
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 noting all
of a sudden.
"Young master, a few more people sent over their people to inform us that they are noting."
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 outter."
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?"
"What?"
Mr. Long talked about something while Luke''s expression grew more and more unpleasant.
After a long time, he said, "I understand. It''s a difficult situation for you too, Mr. Long. It''s fine with
me. I shall invite you to a game of golf next time."
Luke''s expression was so grim that ink was seeping out from his face when he hung up the call.
"What''s going on?" Joseph narrowed his eyes.
"Julian Shaw and Susan Shelby’s wedding is taking ce on that day," said Luke grimly.
The two weddings were held simultaneously while the influential officials in Ningcheng City did not
possess the ability to duplicate themselves so they could only choose to attend one wedding.
In between the Shaw family and the Jenkins family, it was utterly apparent what the vast majority of
these people would choose.
"Julian!" A wisp of coldness shed past Joseph''s eyes.
He was certain that the man had done it on purpose.
“Let him have augh for the time being because we still have years ahead with him," said Luke
coldly.
"That’s right. In the years ahead." Joseph adjusted his sses in a graceful, polite manner.
As for the issue of sharing the same date as Julian’s wedding, the best way to resolve this issue
was to change the wedding date.
Yet, the invitation cards had been sent out already. If they were to change the date now, it would be
equal to him letting everybody else know that Joseph was afraid of Julian.
''Heh, it''s fine for those people not toe. In the days ahead, I''ll still have other opportunities to
meet them.’
Luke and Joseph appeared to be rather calm but when Charlotte found out that her wedding date
was the same as Julian and Susan''s wedding and that they seized most of the guests, she bawled
and cried that she refused to get married. Luke forced her to calm down so she shut herself in her
room and crashed
countless items.
Julian and Susan found out the next day that their wedding feast was actually on the same date as
Joseph and Charlotte''s wedding.
Susan could not help blinking innocently and looked a t Julian in despair. "Julian, do you think they
will assume we’re doing this on purpose?"
God would witness that their date was already set earlier. It was truly a coincidence this time.
"They’ll surely think we are doing this on purpose." Julianughed as well.
He could not bear the sight of Joseph, but it was true that he did not y any tricks with the
wedding date.

It was a once in a lifetime event for him and Susie. He could not just simply set the time out of spite
with those two people.
Moreover, Joseph and Charlotte talked about holding the wedding one monthter in the beginning.
Who would have known that they would move the date up? It was fine that they brought the date
forward as the date shed with Julian''s wedding coincidentally.
The situation would not be so tragic if their wedding was one day earlier orter than Julian’s.
It could be said that even God did not want their wedding to take ce smoothly judging by the
situation now.
"I''m innocent." Susan heaved a sigh.
"Let them think whatever they like." Julian rubbed Susan''s head smilingly. "Our wedding is
happening soon. Susie, you''re surely going to be the most beautiful bride in the world.”
Julian''s eyes were rippling with affection as deep as the sea. Susan blinked mischievously at him.
"Hmm, I think so too."
"You''re vain."
"You spoiled me."
In their couple’s bickering, everything was ready and the day of the wedding finally arrived.
The two weddings began simultaneously.
"What did you say to me previously about giving me a perfect wedding?" Charlotte spoke with a
sharp voice," Yet, what do I get in return? The wedding gown is not custom-made and I put up with
it! You took back the jewelry and I put up with it as well. Many guests can’t make it and I continue to
put up with it. Now you’re telling me that the wedding is going to take ce in just a five-star hotel?
No, I absolutely refuse to agree to that. I only want a seven-star hotel!”
