He had his friends attend the party, including his staff, but Olivia seems to be his most important guest since he was to engage her on his birthday.

All he wants from you is to say yes and save Mr. William family from this mess you are about to pour upon the family." Getting caution from her mother outside the party hall. She had already given the public the believe, that she isn't interested in getting married to Charles.
"Mother, I am not ready for marriage; giving him assurance of that won't add benefit to me or my career; when I am ready, he will know; let's just be friends and that's all, or is it too difficult to ask for?" She concluded and went on her way, saying, "Excuse me." She left the party premises.
Returning back to the party room, Charles was already confused; he needed to clear up the mess, but no one believes what really happened, for he had discussed Olivia with friends and staff in his company. Turning him down was the least he expected from her.
