Chapter 177 - 14 flights of stairs
The second class went smoothly, and as 3 pm approached, Kellen felt exhaustion fill him. Brent had left him to go do his round of guiding, after Kellen had shoved him full of shakes. And after taking a few moments for himself, he set to work.
He only had two hours before he had to go meet up with Rhys for his guiding session with Taylor. So he’d better put his head down and get to work.
Kellen had already reached out to all of the Guiding Centers in the morning, and by mid afternoon, he’d had varying responses.
Of course, Guiding Center B had responded back first, and quickly at that. They were very straightforward in their willingness to help out. Guiding Center A had sent a very lengthy response, full of fancy words, and several insults, but at the end had also agreed to help.
Guiding Center C had outright refused to help, and Guiding Center D and E hadn’t gotten back to Kellen yet. Kellen didn’t know why Guiding Center C had refused to help. As far as he knew, they had never had any issues with each other, but he’d have to wait to look into it more.
Honestly, Kellen was a little worried. He hadn’t wanted to rely on the top two Guiding Centers, and had wanted to spread out the recruitment. He didn’t think that any of the Guiding Centers were inferior to the other, well, except Guiding Center A, but that was just his personal feelings.
Well, it wasn’t a big deal. Kellen was still going to go in person to all of the Guiding Centers since he always found that that left a better impression, and he liked to talk face to face. The email was more of a testing of the waters. It was unfortunate that Guiding Center C was hostile to him, but hopefully he would be able to convince them that he had no bad intentions. After all, he had no idea why they didn’t like him.
Beyond worrying about the Guiding Centers responding back to him, he was also working on the rough drafts of the contracts he planned to present to Pamela for her to confirm. He’d have to get quotes from her and Casper before he could head out tomorrow, and was hoping he’d be able to swing by the conference room before he headed home.
But Kellen got so distracted by making his contracts, he forgot about the time, until it was too late.
