Charlotte was Ronald's first wife and the mistress of the Townsend family.Therefore, he had to give her face.Sean raised his glass and said with a smile, "Mrs. Townsend, my thanks to your husband and the Townsend family's support for Dorodo's city defense army over the years.""You're too kind."Charlotte said excitedly, raising her glass to her mouth and finishing it in one gulp."I'm not being kind. I'm telling you the truth. Dorodo city defense soldiers are several notches better off because of your husband's support. The quilts, clothes, and other living supplies are a great help to the city defense army."Charlotte smiled ear to ear, and she looked at Sean with intense satisfaction.Ronald had invited the commanders-in-chief of the city defense army to their home for dinner before, but the previous commanders-in-chief had always looked like they were above them and spoke arrogantly.Compared with the previous commanders-in-chief, Sean was undoubtedly friendlier and less
"Isn't considered a breach of contract? Haha, you're kidding! I'm warning you. You have to buy our stronghold giant crossbows whether you like it or not!""To tell you the truth, don't buy any more weapons developed and manufactured by Raphael City if you breach the contract! Raphael City will never have anything to do with you again!""Not only we're severing ties with you, Mr. Townsend, but you and your family will also be given a hard time if you appear in Raphael City!""Scared? Hahaha, Mr. Townsend? I advise you to think it through!"The two bombarded Ronald, leaving a layer of cold sweat forming on Ronald's forehead.Ronald's weapons came from a wide range of sources—not just Raphael City but also many other cities.Therefore, it would not be a big deal even if he cut ties with Raphael City. He could only focus on other cities.However, he could not help but take Raphael City's threats and intimidation seriously.While a weapons dealer sounded amazing and even mind-blowin
Zander looked at Sean and glared at the two foreign soldiers."This is your last chance to release Mr. Townsend and get out of here, or..."Zander said this because he did not want it to get to the point of bloodshed happening.After all, Ronald invited Sean and himself to his house for dinner today. If there were bloodshed, it would not be a big deal, but it was still inappropriate.However, before he had finished speaking, the two foreign soldiers began to laugh arrogantly."Hahahaha, give us one last chance? Who do you think you are?""Even if Dorodo's commander-in-chief came today, he can forget about giving us orders!"Zander was furious.He had no idea that the two foreign soldiers were so arrogant."Then don't blame me for being ruthless!"Zander said, his hand resting on the hilt of the saber around his waist."Haha, what can you do to us? You're only a weakling from Dragon Kingdom. How dare you behave so arrogantly?"One of the foreign soldiers said nonchalantly.
Zander flicked the saber. The smooth and bright saber chopped off the two foreign soldiers' hands in a row, but the saber's blade did not have a single drop of blood on it.Although the saber was not as good as Sean's Guardian Sword, Sean had hired a famous craftsman to make it for Zander.A blade with no blood lingering on it was a powerful weapon!"Get the f*ck out of here! Or I'll kill you!"Sean ordered coldly.The two badly wounded foreign soldiers were in severe pain, but they dared not stay there. They quickly grabbed their severed hands, which had fallen onto the floor, and they staggered down the stairs.They had been speaking haughtily earlier, calling Zander a Dragon Kingdom weakling, but they dared not even speak now. They were humiliated to the extreme!It was not until the two men had left that Ronald finally came to his senses."Thank you for saving my life again, Mr. Lennon and Mr. Young."Ronald said with a long exhale.He was so frightened by what had just h
"What's that?"Sean asked curiously."What are you referring to..."Lillian did not realize what Sean was saying. She only realized it when she followed his gaze and saw the small object on the counter."Oh, Mr. Lennon, you meant that. My father found it at an antique market in another city when he was there on a business trip. It was said to be an antique, but it was only a fragment."With that said, Lillian got up, walked over, and held the small object in front of Sean.Sean took it with both hands and looked at it carefully.It was a small sword.It was called a small sword because it was really small. The hilt was only five centimeters long, and the broken blade was only about ten centimeters long. It was indeed exquisite.It was a broken sword at the same time.The sword was in poor condition—the hilt broken and the blade incomplete. However, you could vaguely tell its original appearance from the broken sword.This ancient bronze sword was small but heavy.Most impor
Sean thought about it for a while and replied, "It's indeed quite special, but I don't know how to describe it. I just vaguely have a strange feeling about it.""Intuition?"Zander asked again."You can interpret it that way."Sean nodded.It was not wise to spend 10,000 Dragon dollars on a seemingly useless ancient bronze sword just on intuition.However, Sean had no lack of money.Sean had two large companies—Reach For Will Group and Lennon Group, which made billions of dollars annually.10,000 Dragon dollars was nothing.They had walked a long way before Sean remembered something suddenly."Lillian said just now that there are two pieces of the ancient bronze sword. We bought one, and Ronald has given the other to his friend."Zander immediately nodded when hearing Sean's question."Yes, that's right. That's exactly what Ms. Townsend said.""Let's ask her about it someday and buy the other piece."Sean said with a smile.......The next afternoon.Sean was in the
Lillian blushed slightly once she finished speaking.She wanted to help Sean, and she finally found out something he was interested in. She wanted to help him find it to gain his favor.However, her offer to help was somewhat inappropriate for a girl.Because it would easily make people think she pursued Sean first.The average man would have been delighted.However, Lillian knew that Sean was not a man like that. If he were such a man, he would not have been so angry with her when she climbed into his bed that night.In case Sean got the wrong idea, Lillian quickly explained."Well... Don't take this the wrong way, but I only wanted to help you because my father works with Dorodo's city defense army. I have no other agenda and ulterior motives..."Lillian's slightly hurried words gave the impression that she was trying to hide something.It was a good thing Gregory and Anthony were not here, or Sean would have been embarrassed in front of them."No need to explain. Where's t
Sean looked around as he walked.Sean was uninterested in antiques, but it was his first visit to Dorodo's antiques market. He was somewhat curious about the place."Are most of the antiques here fake?"Sean asked casually."Yeah, you're considered lucky to find one genuine item in one hundred items these stalls sell. Even a 1% probability is too much to ask for here. But that's not the case for the ones sold in stores. Four or five out of ten antiques sold in stores are genuine. Of course, they cost more too."Lillian said, nodding vigorously.Realizing she was the guide, Lillian went out of her way to explain to Sean."This antique market has been around for many years. It's as busy as it was when I was a kid. I often come here with my father, who occasionally buys something he's interested in, but he hasn't had much luck. All the antiques he bought so far have been fakes, but several antiques that his friends gave him are genuine."Lillian laughed as she finished speaking.
