The purpose of today's Dalton Family party is to hold a selection of suitors for the Sterling Family princess.
All those invited are young individuals around the same age as Ethan Laurent and Jasper Sheridan, with a similar family background and status to the Sterling Family.
In other words, they are all either young aristocrats or wealthy heirs.
After having two sons, Aaron Sterling finally got a daughter, and he's indulgent to Tanya Dalton to an extreme degree.
Tonight's party guests have all been strictly vetted by him.
Anyone with a bad record can't come, anyone who's had a girlfriend can't come, and anyone with a family background much inferior to the Sterling Family cannot come. Anyone who's too unattractive certainly can't come.
The three children of the Sterling Family all have the appearance of people who have walked out of a painting. Even though Aaron's requirements have made many people back off, there are still many young men who attended tonight.
