W Hotel’s main conference hall.
W Hotel was Waterhof City’s best and most luxurious international five-star hotel, so its layout and decorations were extremely luxurious. Its most important high-end conference room took up an entire floor.
At the reception, where attendees of the conference would arrive first, Jasper had just gotten his attendance card when he heard Henry’s voice from behind him.
“What do you mean I’m not on your name list? F*ck you! The fact that I’m coming to your conference is an honor for you! How dare you throw me out?!”
Jasper turned around and frowned at the middle-aged manager in charge of handling the attendance. He asked, “What’s going on?”
“My apologies, but this man isn’t on our list of invitees so he cannot join the forum.”
The middle-aged man looked polite, but he was hiding a mocking sneer behind his expression. He looked at Jasper and Henry as if they were a joke as he spoke indifferently.
“I’ve already sent someone to pass you a list of people attending the event with me. There’s my name and Henry Law, so how can he not be on your name list?” Jasper asked.
The middle-aged manager shrugged and replied uncaringly, “I have no idea about that. After all, this forum is held by us, Seatreasures International, and we get to decide who we want to invite. While you do have the right to invite others, Mr. Laine, the final say is ours, and we still have to review your request.
“After all…”
The middle-aged manager then glanced at a furious-looking Henry arrogantly before he said in a neutral tone, “We can’t just let questionable people in.”
“F*ck you!”
Henry’s anger exploded and he almost flipped over the small receptionist counter.
“Did you just call me a questionable person?!” Henry narrowed his eyes and stared at the other person. His being exuded a dangerous aura.
The middle-aged manager had not expected Henry’s huge temper and took a wary step backward. He shouted fiercely, “What are you doing! Are you trying to cause havoc? I’ll call security on you right now!
“Open your stupid eyes and take a look around. Does this look like a place where you can go around causing trouble willy nilly?!”
At that moment, everyone’s attention was fixed on them. The crowd looked at Jasper and Henry with curiosity, but no one came forward to seek justice for them.
