Once Sean finished speaking, several city defense soldiers marched toward George, drawing the swords around their waists.The gleaming swords sent out an intense chill and murderous intent, terrifying whoever saw it.However, onlookers were excited that they raised their right hands and shouted."Kill him!"Kill him!"Kill him!"They referred to George, Wesley's son, who was also one of the city defense army's centurions!Wesley's expression changed dramatically as he quickly rushed up to George, wanting to stop city defense soldiers, who were preparing to execute him.However, more city defense soldiers stood in his way immediately."Commander Jokerman, do you want to disobey Commander Lennon and stop the execution?"A city defense soldier snapped.Wesley's heart pounded as his hands shook violently.He did not want to see his son die in front of him, but he could not fight back.Sean was surrounded only by Gregory, Anthony, and a squad of 20 city defense soldiers.Howev
"As commander-in-chief, I'm deeply sorry for the impact this incident had brought to Dorodo. I now promise that Dorodo's city defense army will never deploy into the city except for major incidents and will only protect the entire city just outside Dorodo and secure the homes that citizens depend on."Lillian blushed slightly as she watched Sean's thin figure and his ordinary yet easy-on-eyes and impressive face on the television news."Are you shy, girly?"A woman in her thirties came over and joked as she sat beside Lillian.This woman was Ronald's concubine and Lillian's other mother.She had a better relationship with Lillian, even though she was not her biological mother. It was because her own mother had always been very strict with her."Stop it, Mila."Lillian shook her head hard and hid her face in her hands."Oh, the news is over..."Once Mila finished speaking, Lillian quickly dropped her hand and looked at the TV screen.Lillian was annoyed when she saw that the n
"Help yourself. I'll smoke a cigarette and relax. It's too hot."Sean said, taking out a cigarette.It dawned on Zander that that was the reason Sean ate so little.Therefore, he said no more and dug in.The fondue restaurant was crowded. Business was good, and Sean and Zander sat in the hall. If it were a Dragon Kingdom restaurant, smoking was not allowed.However, many people were smoking in the hall, and Sean was not the only one, so Sean just did what they did.After smoking a cigarette, Sean finally grabbed his cutlery and picked up a few pieces of bread from the fondue."What happened earlier was a good thing. George was asking for it, and Wesley was implicated. The father and son's influence had been removed from the army camp. That way, I've won over Dorodo's city defense army."Sean exhaled and said, picking up the cold beer on the table and taking a swig."Yes, you've thought of everything, Commander."Zander said excitedly.He could not help feeling excited.It
Lillian was not alone. She was accompanied by a woman in her thirties.Sean and Zander also knew the woman, having met her at Ronald's house. She was Mila Martinez, Ronald's concubine.Mila was a unique name. The name had the distinctive style of the City-State Union, but Mila was not a pure local. She had Dragon Kingdom blood flowing in her."It's you."Sean's reaction was indifferent. He gave them a slight nod and prepared to continue eating his fondue with Zander.However, Lillian came arm-in-arm with Mila and stood before them."I didn't expect to see you here, Mr. Lennon and Mr. Young... You don't mind me calling you that, do you?"Lillian asked, excited but worried.After all, Sean was the city defense army's commander-in-chief. He had the highest position in the city. Only the mayor Quentin could match him.Therefore, Lillian was afraid that anything she said or did would upset this "big shot".However, Sean did not mind her calling him that. He just found the woman a
Lillian was embarrassed.She could not even hold the wine bottle steadily. Her hand shook so much that it was embarrassing.However, Sean remained calm and did not show the disgust that Lillian had expected.He took the wine bottle from Lillian's hand and poured himself and Lillian a glass."Am I that scary to you?"Sean asked.Lillian shook her head at Sean's words. Then she blushed and said, "I'm just too nervous.""It's just a meal. What's there to be nervous about?”Sean said casually.Mila smiled and touched Lillian's head to encourage her.Zander's expression was unfazed.He was usually calm, so he would not laugh under such circumstances.After a while, Lillian finally felt less nervous and dared to talk to Sean.During their chat, Sean also learned more about the weapons dealer, Ronald.It turned out that Ronald not only dealt with Dorodo's city defense army but also sold weapons on Dorodo's black market.Not counting Dorodo's city defense army, Ronald occupied a
Hearing Mila’s words, Sean had a faint intuition.The woman Lorenzo had his eye on was most likely Lillian sitting next to him.Sure enough, Mila quickly added, "Alfie asked Lill to marry his son, Lorenzo, but Lill never said yes. My husband did not agree since Lill disagreed. Although he's greedy for money, he won't trade his daughter's happiness for money."Sean smiled. His impression of Ronald had improved slightly.Ronald was stingy and greedy for money, but this guy refused to use his daughter in exchange for money. You could tell from there that his daughter was important.Zander nodded and said, "Your husband has his redeeming qualities."Mila beamed when Zander praised her husband.Lillian said in a disgusted voice, "I will never marry that Lorenzo. He's a total scumbag. He has a different woman every day. I would regret it for the rest of my life if I married him.""Is this Lorenzo that bad?"Sean was not one to gossip. He just wanted to learn more about Lorenzo and h
Lillian might look weak, but she was tough.Otherwise, she would not have repeatedly looked for opportunities to get close to Sean.She even went with her father Ronald to Dorodo's city defense army base—a place filled with danger and mystery for ordinary people to achieve her goal.How could ordinary women have such courage?Therefore, just as Lorenzo approached with his two bodyguards, Lillian leaped to her feet and glared at Lorenzo."Lorenzo, I've told you many times that I'm not interested in you. I won't marry you, so forget about it!"Lillian shouted.All the customers at the fondue restaurant heard her.The customers finally recognized Lillian as Ronald's daughter and Lorenzo as the heir of the Wagner family.Therefore, the customers looked at Lillian and Lorenzo in shock before sizing them up curiously.The Wagner family and the Townsend family's feud were well-known in Dorodo, and they had heard of it.Now that Lillian and Lorenzo met up, they would argue about it
However, now that Sean had spoken, she dared not reveal his identity.Sean was the supreme leader of Dorodo's city defense army. It could cause a stir if they revealed his identity here. Lillian was not stupid. There was no way she would cause Sean trouble just to impress Lorenzo.If she did reveal Sean's identity, it would scare Lorenzo from pestering her. However, she might also disappoint Sean by doing that.Therefore, Lillian kept her mouth shut and said nothing.Lorenzo's expression grew smug at the sight of Lillian's silence.'There's no way this man is a big shot. Why else would Lillian not reveal his identity and where he came from?'It has to be it. That must be it!'Lorenzo laughed shamelessly before staring at Sean and saying, "You. I'm talking to you. I don't know who you are, but I think you should have heard about me, Lorenzo Wagner! I advise you to f*ck off at once. Otherwise, I'll make sure you leave here lying down today!"Lorenzo's words made both Lillian's an
