They wanted to give up, but Zander would not go easy on them. He ran after them and kicked them down one at a time.The two young men, who had been kicked in the stomach by Zander, fell to the floor and vomited. Bright red blood mixed with their vomit—Their intestines were probably bleeding from Zander's kick.Sean had now lifted Yvonne off the floor."You're not hurt, are you?" Sean asked.Sean felt like he was talking nonsense once he finished asking because he could see that Yvonne was hurt—though not badly.The worst wound on Yvonne's body was the one at the corner of her mouth that was still bleeding.There were many scars on her arms and legs. They were scratches she got from the ground when the three young men dragged her.None of these injuries were serious, but they must have hurt.Yvonne was not incapacitated by the injury, but she was terrified, and her legs were shaking.Sean helped her up, and she fell on Sean's chest. Her whole body collapsed into Sean's arms.S
Yvonne had passed out when Sean brought her back, but she had now opened her eyes and woken up.She sat up from the bed but winced in pain as soon as she sat up because she triggered the wounds on her body."Lie down. We're leaving now."Sean said to Yvonne.Yvonne nodded and looked at Sean imploringly. She said nothing, but Sean knew what she meant."Let me think about it, and I'll let you know once I figure something out."Sean said to Yvonne.Yvonne breathed a sigh of relief, and joy filled her heart.At least Sean did not reject her outright this time.After leaving the slum, Sean and Zander walked slowly back to camp.It was not a very long walk, but it was not a short walk either. It should take about an hour to walk back at this pace or about 40 minutes if they walked faster."Commander, are you planning to..."Zander asked hesitantly.Sean chuckled and said, "Are you asking about Yvonne? Yeah, I'm planning to buy an apartment downtown. You and I will move in togeth
Zander took Dwayne to the commander-in-chief's office.Once he entered the office, Dwayne nodded and bowed before obsequiously cottoning up to Sean. Sean did not take kindly to Dwayne. He asked directly, "I heard Onyx Dragon Gang is vaguely involved with the sheriff's department. You even defended Onyx Dragon Gang. Is that true?"Dwayne's expression immediately changed as he shook his head violently."No! Definitely no! Commander Lennon, I don't know where you heard this rumor, but it's outrageous! Someone created this rumor. It's all made up.""Oh, tell me what's going on then."Sean was asked calmly.Dwayne pulled out two envelopes, respectfully put them on Sean's desk, and spoke."Commander Lennon, here's what happened. Two of our sheriffs in the sheriff's department are indeed involved with Onyx, the head of Onyx Dragon Gang, so Onyx told everyone that he knew people in the sheriff's department and that the sheriff's department has his back, but it was only the two sheriff
Sean was satisfied to see the exquisite model houses in the glass display when he reached it. These were residential areas. The area of the units was between 100 square meters and 150 square meters, and the price was around 5,000 Dragon Dollars per square meter.5,000 Dragon Dollars.Dragon Kingdom's real estate prices were already much higher than this. It was rare to find a house for 5,000 dollars per square meter in Dragon Kingdom. Only some small towns would have houses at this price.However, the City-State Union's economy was not as developed as Dragon Kingdom and had a relatively smaller population. The land per capita was not tense, so the housing price was low.Even so, Dorodo's ordinary people would have to save for years to buy such a house. The slum's residents could forget about it."This is pretty good. Is the top floor empty?"Sean asked, pointing to the building in the middle of a neighborhood.The estate agent immediately said with a chuckle, "This is Crystalv
Mr. Candour's haughtiness made Sean slightly upset.Zander was even angrier than Sean. He was Sean's subordinate and was loyal to Sean. How could he watch his commander be humiliated by an arrogant nobody and stay calm?"We want that unit!"Zander spoke firmly without waiting for Sean to speak.Mr. Candour sneered after hearing Zander's words. "I tried to be respectful, but you don't want it. Did you not hear what I just said? We've sold the unit!""If it's sold, why is it still on sale?"Zander asked immediately.According to the industry's rules, sold units would have been labeled as sold and would not be labeled as on sale. Estate agents would never recommend units that had been sold to the clients who were there to view units.Therefore, he could tell that the unit had not been sold. Mr. Candour probably wanted to keep it all to himself or wanted to sell it to his friends, so he said it had already been sold.Such things were not uncommon, but Zander could not bear the ang
Sean smiled and waved his hand.Monica was already looking at Mr. Candour in the hall, who did not notice Monica's arrival and was joking with another estate agent."Franklin, come here!"Monica shouted, shocking Mr. Candour.When Mr. Candour saw Monica, his expression changed instantly, and he quickly came to Monica."Were you the one who served Commander Lennon and Commander Young? Do you know who Commander Lennon is? He's the commander-in-chief of Dorodo's city defense army! How dare you be rude to him? Do you have a death wish?"Monica snapped.Franklin's face instantly went pale when he heard this.He did not expect the young man he had just criticized but did not retort to him was one of the famous Dorodo duo, the city defense army's commander-in-chief—Sean Lennon!Upon learning Sean's identity, Franklin instantly shuddered with fear as his legs shook slightly."I... I wasn't rude to them... I didn't do anything..."Franklin was stuttering and crying heavily, but he st
Franklin was fired and quickly thrown out by the real estate sales department's security guards.Sean bought the top floor of the center tower with full payment.Monica intended to give the house to Sean, but Sean refused, saying he could not accept gifts and bought the unit with money out of his own pocket.After leaving the real estate sales department, Sean went to look at the unit with Zander.Crystalville had a good environment with a lot of greenery. Besides that, the center tower was the largest building in Crystalville.After taking the elevator to the top floor on level 23 and entering the room, Sean and Zander were pleased with the unit.The most important thing was that the unit was already renovated, so it did not need more work. Even some ordinary furniture was already there. It was to the point where they could move in with their belongings. Just a few electrical appliances away, and they could live here."We'll live here from now on. Save Yvonne a room so she coul
Just then, Zander walked in, somewhat excited."Commander, it's time to go home and rest.""Okay."Sean gathered his thoughts and nodded.Looking up at Zander, Sean was amused to see the look of anticipation on Zander's face.Sean and Zander lived in the city defense army's main camp before buying the unit, so the so-called going to and off work did not exist. However, Zander was now looking forward to returning to that home, which made him slightly surprised."Yvonne says we're having braised beef and lemon butter fish for dinner tonight. Commander, let's hurry back."Zander could not help urging.'So he's eager to taste Yvonne's cooking.'Sean laughed, got up from his chair, and prepared to go home with Zander.However, a messenger ran in suddenly."Commander, Bob from the warehouse wants to see you. He says it's urgent!"Hearing the errand runner's report, Sean frowned instantly.Although he had assigned Bob a job, Sean never had personal contact with Bob in the army ca
