All this showed that the private room was not for ordinary people.
After Quentin, Shania, Sean, Ronald, and Lillian sat on the brown couch, the female attendant who followed them inside smiled and said, “Mayor Lewis, there are staff outside who can help you if you need anything, or you can just contact me. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first…”
“Okay, I’ll leave you to your work.” Quentin nodded with a smile.
After the female attendant left, Ronald asked curiously, “Mayor Lewis, the woman earlier…”
“She’s Celine James, the owner of New Era Cinema,” Quentin replied.
Ronald was immediately impressed!
Sean was a little surprised. He thought the woman was an attendant. He did not expect favonovel.com to be the owner of the cinema.
It was not easy for a woman to own such a grand cinema. It was because this was not Dragon Kingdom but the City-State Union.
In the chaotic City-State Union, the idea that women were inferior to men was deeply rooted in the people’s minds. It was difficult for women to make it here.
The female owner named Celine looked like favonovel.com was in favonovel.com late 20s, but favonovel.com had already such an accomplishment. She was indeed tough.
The movie began to play.
However, the only people interested in the movie were the two girls, Lillian and Shania.
Neither Quentin, Ronald, nor Sean had any interest in what was going on in the movie. They were not there to watch the movie.
“Commander Lennon and Mr. Townsend, I’m sorry for what the captain of my personal guard, Tobias, did earlier…” Quentin spoke first.
“It’s alright. It’s in the past. Besides, you didn’t order favonovel.com to do such a thing.” Ronald’s face was full of smiles.
“But it’s still my responsibility. I didn’t control my people well.”
Ronald was flattered by Quentin’s attitude. However, Ronald knew why Quentin was apologizing in front of him. It was all because of Sean!
If it were not for Sean, Quentin would never have invited favonovel.com and his daughter to a private meeting at New Era Cinema, much less to apologize in person. After all, the difference in their status was obvious. It was not something you could erase easily.
Sean asked faintly, “So, how did you take care of Tobias?”
“Tobias has been tried by an emergency court and is now imprisoned for life,” Quentin said solemnly.
Hearing this, Sean nodded with satisfaction.
The City-State Union’s life imprisonment was indeed for life.
One would be locked up until death. Besides that, it was not just ordinary detention. One had to do manual labor every day!
It was unlike Dragon Kingdom, where it was only life imprisonment in name, but was actually only 25 years, and one could get a reduced sentence for good behavior. At least the City-State Union’s punishment was far more severe than Dragon Kingdom.
Ronald was pleased with the result, of course.
He nodded and said, “Thank you, Mayor Lewis. Frederic has told me that favonovel.com has retrieved the antiques Tobias took. Besides that, favonovel.com also got a nice compensation. Mayor Lewis, this is all thanks to you. Here’s a toast to you!”
With that said, Ronald picked up the coffee cup in front of him.
After picking up the coffee cup, Ronald realized this was not a restaurant and what favonovel.com picked up was not wine, so favonovel.com quickly corrected himself. “Let’s use coffee instead of wine. Hahaha…”
Quentin nodded before taking a sip of his coffee.
