Semua Bab The Guardian's Sword: Bab 1801 - Bab 1810

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

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

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

Elijah, Cole, and Dylan were furious to hear Sean's words.'We're heads of the top three families in Dorodo. So what if we were late? Being late for such little time was nothing.'We gave you a lot of face by attending your fundraising gala!'However, the rest of the guests thought otherwise. Sean's remark woke them up.'Yes, we're all human beings. Why should we arrive early for the gala and waste time waiting for you three who were late?'Since you're late, you should stand!'This is the punishment you deserve. It's the result of your own choice!'The guests looked at Elijah, Cole, and Dylan, and some of them gloated.Quentin suddenly got up to represent all the fundraising gala guests sitting in their chairs and told Elijah, Cole, and Dylan, "Mr. Walker, Mr. Stewart, Mr. Lambert, you guys are late no matter what. In that case, why don't you just stand? It's not a big deal anyway. Commander Lennon also said the gala won't take long. It will be over soon.""Yes, yes, Elijah.

"Since you have no other opinions, the fundraising gala starts now."Sean said firmly.Elijah, Cole, and Dylan were furious.However, even if they were angry, they dared not show it, much less lose their temper on the spot.After all, they had become the target of criticism. If they did anything irrational, Sean would go after them!The fundraising gala began.The first performance was a chorus by 20 city defense soldiers.Sean had ordered the selection of about 100 city defense soldiers who could sing or dance for the gala tonight. He turned their training time into rehearsing time.It was time for them to show Sean and everyone else what they had been practicing.However, city defense soldiers were neither professional actors nor professional singers. The songs they sang were grand but not very neat.However, the audience watched attentively and enjoyed it.After the first chorus performance, 30 city defense soldiers lined up on the stage to show military boxing.Military
