Elijah said with a chuckle, "We'll donate then. Why not? I can afford a donation... Be generous and give him 100 dollars."'100 dollars?'Elijah, Cole, and Dylan were members of Dorodo's noble families.The top three families had tens of billions of dollars in assets each but donated only 100 dollars. It was obviously ironic!"That's a good idea! Haha, I love it! I can't wait to see the expression on Sean's face when he finds out all three of us only donated 100 dollars."Cole burst out laughing with a look of satisfaction on his face.Dylan also smirked.Elijah turned to look at his son Lionel and said, "Did you hear that? You're going to the fundraising gala with Uncle Cole and Uncle Dylan's son, and you only need to donate 100 dollars.""I got it, Dad!"Lionel nodded vigorously, a smug look on his face.......Two days passed quickly.As night drew closer, lights lit up in front of Dorodo's city defense army's main camp.The lights were not neon, nor were they especia
Quentin kept waving his hands."It's standard protocol."Sean said flatly.In any case, Sean would ask Zander to sort out the money raised, the exact amount, and how it would be spent, and send the details to the mayor's residence for Quentin to have a look.After all, Quentin was the mayor. Sean had overstepped by taking over the slum's issue, so he had to be careful with the donations and not leave any problems behind.It was for his own good as well as for Quentin and the others.Blushing slightly, Shania looked at Sean excitedly and said, "Commander Lennon, I already knew you would address the slum issue, but I never expected you to be so quick and do so much. Do you know what Dorodo's poor call you now?"Sean shook his head slightly."They call you Taquila and say you are the savior of the poor!" Shania said excitedly.Sean broke into laughter. He shook his head and said, "You're being dramatic. It's the least I could do."Sean's attitude surprised both Quentin and Shani
Quentin lowered his voice and explained. "Commander Lennon, you may not know this, but Lionel is the son of Elijah Walker, the patriarch of the Walker family; Solomon is the son of Cole Stewart, the patriarch of the Stewart family; while Nathan is the son of Dylan Lambert, the patriarch of the Lambert family. The three of them are the heirs of important families."After a pause, Quentin continued saying, "Dorodo's top five families are the Wosh family, the Montana family, the Walker family, the Stewart family, and the Lambert family. Lionel teamed up with Solomon and Nathan. The three families have probably formed an alliance."Besides that, they were an alliance against Sean.Quentin did not tell him that, of course. It was because he knew Sean could realize it even if he did not tell him."An alliance... Haha, Mayor Lewis. With the top five families around, it seems your job as mayor isn't easy."Sean said with a smile.Quentin instantly nodded with a bitter smile and said, "Th
The city defense soldiers immediately stood at attention and saluted when they saw Sean.Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan also lowered their heads slightly.Although arrogant and haughty, they dared not behave haughtily in front of Sean."What's going on here?"Sean already knew what had happened, but he asked anyway.The city defense soldiers immediately reported loudly, "Commander-in-chief, these three young gentlemen aren't holding their own invitations. It's their father's. Also, they brought too many bodyguards, which doesn't meet the requirements stated on our invitation. So I stopped them, but they unexpectedly refused to leave and are still causing trouble here!"Hearing this, Lionel hurried up to Sean, forced a smile, and said, "Commander Lennon, your men are too incompetent. The rules are dead, but people aren't! It's true that my father and Young Master Lambert's father couldn't attend your gala as they have something to do. That's why our fathers asked us to come to make a
Everyone was shocked to see the mayor of Dorodo, Quentin, attending tonight's fundraising gala without any bodyguards but only his daughter, just like Sean said.After all, Quentin was the head of the city. He always had more than one bodyguard with him wherever he went!However, because Sean was the host of the gala and the invitation stated that he was allowed to bring only one guest, Quentin brought no bodyguards and only his daughter Shania. His action spoke louder than any words!Shania blushed and held her father's arm tightly.Quentin only raised his hand and coughed before leading his daughter forward and saying to all the guests, "Commander Lennon's right. The city defense army's main camp is Dorodo's military stronghold. It's not supposed to let too many outsiders in. That's why the invitation restricted the number of guests. As mayor, I must take the lead in respecting Commander Lennon's decision. After all, it's for the sake of Dorodo's safety."Once Quentin spoke, all
Lionel's bodyguards immediately reached to their waists or inside their clothes, ready to take out their weapons to resist.Sean warned coldly, "I advise you to surrender. If you dare to resist, I will kill you on the spot!"Hearing this, the bodyguards around Lionel and the others turned pale.They were not only not rich heirs but only regular bodyguards. The three influential families—the Walker family, the Stewart family, and the Lambert family might have Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan's backs, but they would never back them up.Therefore, the bodyguards immediately dropped their weapons and crouched down with their hands on their heads."Stand up! Who told you to surrender? Stand up!"Lionel shouted as he was furious.However, his handsome face was immediately elbowed as soon as he spoke!The city defense soldiers, who Lionel had been scolding for a long time, knocked him to the ground with his elbow. Then he pulled out bright silver handcuffs, pulled his arms back, and cuffed
It was because you could tell how classy it was by looking at the guests attending the gala.Standing at the gala venue were all Dorodo's bigwigs—either famous businessmen or heads of prominent families.The one with the highest status was Mayor Quentin and his daughter, Shania.With these two and so many rich and famous people in attendance, how could the gala not be classy?The classiness of a gala was never measured by the quality of the food or wine but by the identity of the gala's guests!Was there any banquet or ball in Dorodo that was classier than the gala tonight, which was attended by all members of Dorodo's high society? You could say that everyone famous in Dorodo was here.The big shots from the Wosh family and the Montana family were here too.The head of the Wosh family—Benedict, and his daughter Miriam attended.There was only one person from the Montana family, and it was Monica herself, who was invited.Benedict and his daughter Miriam went up to Sean with M
These three middle-aged men were none other than the patriarch of the Walker family, Elijah, the patriarch of the Stewart family, Cole, and the patriarch of the Lambert family, Dylan.The heads of the three influential families claimed they had something to do, so they sent their sons to the gala with the invitations to deliberately make trouble.However, they got the news about Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan's arrest and hurriedly rushed over. After all, Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan were their flesh and blood, and they could not watch their sons go to jail and even be branded spies for other cities."Sorry, sorry, Commander Lennon. We're late."Elijah walked in and said to Sean with a smile."I'm really sorry. I had something to do today, so I had my son attend the fundraising gala. I just managed to find time now," Cole said.Dylan said nothing and was looking haughtily at Sean.Sean's expression remained unfazed, and he still smiled faintly."Now that you're here, sit down."He
