Everybody speculated if Drunham City was going to have a change in regime since someone who outranked Malcolm was going to be the new commander-in-chief of the garrison in the city.As soon as the news got out, all the heads of the wealthy families in the city could not sit still anymore. They rushed to the garrison to visit Malcolm. Because too many went to visit Malcolm, he had no choice but to spread the news that he was not going to see anybody lately. He also mobilized a troop of soldiers to guard the gates of the garrison.All the rich and famous who kept wanting to visit Malcolm were stopped by the soldiers outside the gates of the garrison.The Stone family sent someone to the garrison after they learned the news. However, just like everyone else who was there, they were stopped outside the gates as well.The crowd did not meet Malcolm, but that did confirm a piece of news—Malcolm would be leaving Drunham City and taking up a position in Athenapolis soon.The garrison wo
It was after Malcolm heard Liam's reply that he was thoroughly relieved. He then stood up and saluted Liam respectfully.Liam waved at Malcolm, put down his cup, and patted Malcolm's shoulder before he said, "Alright. Do your best after you arrive at Athenapolis. If you have any questions, you can contact the Pendragon office there.""Thank you, sir!" Malcolm shuddered and quickly looked up to salute Liam in excitement once again.Malcolm was sure that Liam was a very big part of the reason he was able to be transferred to Athenapolis.Liam smiled and shook his head after he saw Malcolm looking teary-eyed. Then, he glanced at the time and was ready to leave.Seeing that, Malcolm quickly said, "Please stay, sir. There's going to be a party here at the garrison tonight. It's a farewell for me since I'm going to work in Athenapolis, and it's also to welcome the new commander-in-chief."Liam frowned and gave it a thought before he said, "Do as you see fit, but remember, don't expose
The other three elders were stunned as soon as they heard what Timothy said.Geoffrey was the first to regain his senses. He looked at Timothy solemnly and said, "Is it true, Mr. Norton? Is Prince Faber truly coming back?""Even if Prince Faber is coming back, the king can't let him replace Liam and take over the Pendragon Warriors! Liam has made so many contributions to Biskeland over the years. How could the king do that?""That's right! Having Prince Faber replace Liam and take over the Pendragon War Zone would be equivalent to dismissing Liam, wouldn't it?""Many soldiers would be let down because of this!""This won't do! I have to head to Crystal Elegance Palace to ask the king what this means."The other elders were instantly infuriated upon hearing Timothy's words.It was not for any other reasons. It was because Prince Faber used to be a powerful commander in Biskeland who had hundreds of thousands of Faber Warriors under his command. He won many battles as well.Ten y
Reginald was sitting in the middle of the room, looking at everyone with a solemn expression. "I'm sure all of you have learned that Mr. Lynch will be leaving Drunham City and taking up a position in Athenapolis. We have no idea if our collaborations will be affected once Mr. Lynch leaves. I've gathered all of you here because I wanted to discuss this matter."Reginald did not care that Malcolm was transferring out of Drunham City or where he was going to work. What he cared about the most was the collaboration between the Stone family and the Max Group.The room instantly became abuzz with discussion from the Stone family."What should we do? We have no idea if the new commander-in-chief of the garrison is easygoing or not. Would he cancel all the previous collaborations once he takes office?""That's right! I heard that the new commander-in-chief is a general and is from the Pendragon War Zone!""Could it be that something serious is about to happen in Drunham City? They sent so
"That's right! Reginald, let's have Celena visit the new commander-in-chief. She can ask about the collaboration between our family and the Max Group."Yafe looked at Celena and said, "Celena, I'll leave the matter of visiting the new commander-in-chief to you. It's still early. Head to the garrison now."Celena was stunned. She did not think that they would have her visit the new commander-in-chief, so she looked troubled.She said, "But, I don't know the new commander at all. If I were to go now—"Yafe's expression darkened, and he cut her off before she could finish, saying, "Just go when you're asked. What's all this nonsense for?"His tone was frosty as he barked, "It's because you don't know that you need to visit him! You're the person in charge of the project between our family and the Max Group. It's a given that you should visit him. Who else should go if not you? Me?""But-"Celena had no clue what she should do at all. She wanted to say no, but Yafe's words made sens
Celena was still looking worried and anxious as she asked, "Can we do that? But we don't know if Mr. Lynch has left or not. Even if he's still in Drunham City, haven't you heard what they said earlier? The garrison doesn't take visitors at all now. How could we meet him?"Liam grabbed Celena's hand and smiled before he said, "We'll find out if we can meet him if we just try, won't we?"He led Celena out of the living room as soon as he said that and was ready to head to the garrison.As soon as they walked out, they saw Cheryl standing at the entrance, looking arrogant.At first, Cheryl had an indifferent expression. However, she sneered as soon as she saw Liam and Celena and said, "Oh, are you going to head to the garrison right now, Celena? You have to do your best, then. After all, you're carrying the burden of building a good relationship with the new commander-in-chief on your shoulders now. "Did you think you relaxed just because you have the project with the Max Group in y
After Yafe, Sherah, Celena, and Liam got out of the car, they walked straight to the gates. Yafe was all smiles as he said to the soldiers on guard, "Hello, sir. I'm Yafe Stone. I'm here to see Mr. Lynch. We have something urgent to discuss with him."However, the soldier did not budge at all after he heard Yafe's words. His expression got even colder instead.He pointed to the group of people at the side and said icily, "See those people over there? All of them said they had something urgent to discuss with Mr. Lynch. I'm sorry. Mr. Lynch has already been transferred out of here. He left Drunham City an hour ago."Both Yafe and Sherah were dumbfounded after hearing that.Sherah even exclaimed, "What? Mr. Lynch has left Drunham City?"The soldier frowned and looked at Sherah with a stern look as he said icily, "Ma'am, this is the Drunham City garrison. It's not a market."Yafe smiled apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, sir. I'm sorry. We have something important to discuss. Ma
Yafe was way more clever than Sherah, and he was almost scared to death by Sherah's foolish behavior. He quickly grabbed Sherah's arm and pulled her back."You're the one being insolent and also an embarrassment! Hurry up and get out of the way!" Yafe growled at Sherah.Then, he quickly smiled at the soldier apologetically and said, "Don't be angry, sir. She's not sensible. Please don't stoop to her level."Here's the thing, sir. Our family is collaborating with the Max Group. We're here because of that as well. Can you please do us a favor and let us go in and meet Mr. Lynch?"However, the soldier's gaze was still frosty. He glared at Yafe and said icily, "Enough with the nonsense. Everybody who came here today said they're collaborating with Mr. Lynch and have something important to discuss with him."If you're collaborating with Mr. Lynch, show me the documents. I'll let you in once you bring me the documents. Get out of here now or I'll shoot!"The soldier's patience was comp
