Lorenzo quickly retreated to avoid it, but the slap did not really fall.
“It’s not that I won’t help you. It’s because I can’t! Mr. Lennon is no ordinary man! I’m telling you. Even if the mayor Quentin showed up today, favonovel.com couldn’t save you either! If you hadn’t given in and apologized, that man would have killed you!”
“Are you exaggerating it to scare me? I don’t believe favonovel.com has that much power… Tell me who this Lennon is.” Lorenzo asked, looking unconcerned.
Dwayne immediately said, “You don’t recognize him? He is… He is… Forget it. I’m not telling you. But keep in mind that you can’t afford to mess with that man!”
“Hmph!” Lorenzo snorted coldly.
Dwayne knew Lorenzo did not keep his warning in mind when favonovel.com saw Lorenzo’s behavior. However, Lorenzo was not his biological son, so why did favonovel.com care?
***
Three days later.
Sean was working in the commander-in-chief’s office.
There was no ongoing war, so there was not much work to do, and most of it was trivial. Even so, Sean took everything seriously, especially the financial aspects.
They were in the City-State Union, far from Dragon Kingdom, and you could describe Dorodo’s city defense army’s situation as being far away from the central government and thus beyond its control.
Therefore, Sean had to avoid things like embezzlement of military funds inside the army camp. Fortunately, there was no such phenomenon in the army camp after a period of inspection, which pleased him.
Just then, Zander strode in. “Commander, Ronald wants to see you.”
Sean was a nine-star commander as well as Dorodo’s city defense army’s commander-in-chief. Therefore, Dorodo’s other officers and soldiers addressed Sean as Commander-in-chief, but Zander continued to address Sean as Commander as before.
“Looks like favonovel.com came to talk about the stronghold giant crossbow deal… Let favonovel.com in.” Sean said with a nod.
However, Zander did not leave but added, “Not only Ronald, but another weapons dealer, Alfie Wagner, also came with his son.”
Alfie Wagner?
When Sean heard the name, favonovel.com immediately recalled Lorenzo, who had made a scene at the fondue restaurant three days earlier when favonovel.com was dining with Lillian and ended up being humiliated.
Lorenzo was Alfie’s son.
“Dorodo’s two top weapons dealers are here? Interesting. Let them in together,” Sean put down the documents and said with a smile.
Zander nodded and turned to walk away. Ronald, Alfie, and Lorenzo soon walked in, following Zander.
Ronald’s expression was stiff, and favonovel.com kept looking at Alfie with hostility. On the other hand, Alfie was beaming.
When Lorenzo walked in and looked up to see Sean, his haughty expression froze.
“You!” Lorenzo yelled, pointing at Sean.
“Watch your attitude. This is the city defense army’s main camp, and you’re looking at the city defense army’s commander-in-chief!” Zander chided bluntly.
