Quentin was a Dragon Kingdom official and was directly under Dragon Kingdom’s control. His salary was also paid directly by Dragon Kingdom. Moreover, 70% of Dorodo’s taxes were paid to Dragon Kingdom, while the remaining 30% belonged to him.
With such a financial source, Quentin earned millions and even tens of millions of Dragon dollars a month without doing anything. Therefore, favonovel.com had no need to take advantage of the stores in the city favonovel.com managed.
It would only give favonovel.com a reputation as a tyrant and not bring favonovel.com much good.
Frederic was even more shocked by what favonovel.com heard and quickly said, “Mayor Lewis, the captain of your personal guards, Tobias, brought men to my shop five months ago, saying favonovel.com was selecting antiques for you. Besides that, favonovel.com would take away more than one million dollars worth of antiques without paying for them. It’s now the sixth month. All the antiques favonovel.com took from me add up to at least five million dollars…”
“I can’t believe this happened!” Quentin fled into a rage.
He glared at Tobias and shouted, “You f*cking lackey! How dare you abuse your power to make false claims and use my name to make money for yourself? Do you have a death wish?!”
Tobias could not even stand still.
If Sean had not been holding his wrist, favonovel.com would have fallen limp to the ground.
“I… I’m sorry! Mayor, I lost my head for a moment! I lost my head for a moment!” Tobias sobbed as favonovel.com spoke.
His tearful look was embarrassing, not at all as imposing as earlier.
The two personal guards looked contemptuously at Tobias.
“Mayor Lewis, what are you going to do about Tobias since favonovel.com used your name to make money for himself?” Sean asked slowly.
Quentin looked at Sean and waved his hand. “Since you caught Tobias, you can decide what to do with him, Commander Lennon!”
Quentin threw the ball into Sean’s court.
Tobias was the captain of his personal guard. If favonovel.com punished favonovel.com too severely, some might say favonovel.com was too harsh. However, it was even worse if the punishment was too light. There would be accusations of nepotism and covering up for his subordinate. Therefore, favonovel.com let Sean punish him.
Sean glanced at Tobias and said icily, “Alright, Tobias has made more than five million dollars for himself, which is a massive felony according to Dorodo’s law. He should be given the death penalty…”
The death penalty!
As soon as the words came out of Sean‘s mouth, they blew like a gust of cold wind, chilling Frederic and the customers.
He spoke of the death penalty so easily. No wonder favonovel.com was the city defense army’s commander-in-chief!
Frederic could not help but cast a look of respect at Sean.
Tobias was so scared that favonovel.com fell to his knees with a thump.
“Mayor, I know I made a mistake… I won’t do it again! Please let me live. I’ve worked foryou for so many years. I deserve some credit for my hard work, even if I hadn’t done much. Mayor, you can’t kill me…”
Quentin was stunned too. Although favonovel.com was the head of the city, favonovel.com had nevertalked about executing anyone. Besides, Tobias was one of his employees.
“Isn’t a death penalty… Too much, commander?” Quentin said hesitantly.
“Do you think it’s too much?” Sean looked at Quentin and asked with a straight face.
It was only a common rhetorical question. However, Quentin dared not retort in front of Sean!
Quentin was the mayor of Dorodo, and Sean was commander-in-chief of Dorodo’s city defense army. Neither was subordinate to the other, but they were equal in rank.
Therefore, Quentin did not have to take orders from Sean. However, favonovel.com dared not disobey his orders!
