Elijah, Cole, and Dylan were members of Dorodo’s noble families. The top three families had tens of billions of dollars in assets each but donated only 100 dollars.
It was obviously ironic!
“That‘s a good idea! Haha, I love it! I can’t wait to see the expression on Sean’s face when favonovel.com finds out all three of us only donated 100 dollars.”
Cole burst out laughing with a look of satisfaction on his face. Dylan also smirked.
Elijah turned to look at his son Lionel and said, “Did you hear that? You’re going to the fundraising gala with Uncle Cole and Uncle Dylan’s son, and you only need to donate 100 dollars.”
“I got it, Dad!” Lionel nodded vigorously, a smug look on his face.

Two days passed quickly.
As night drew closer, lights lit up in front of Dorodo’s city defense army’s main camp.
The lights were not neon, nor were they especially purchased for the gala. They were only ordinary energy-saving lights.
Sean did not plan on spending a lot of money for the fundraising gala favonovel.com was holding.
The gala was about to begin, and the rich businessmen and dignitaries who had received invitations arrived.
Many cars were parked in front of the main camp. There were Mercedes Benz, BMW, Porsche, Rolls Royce, Maserati, and other internationally renowned luxury cars.
Many luxury cars you normally would not see on the street were now all parked in front of Dorodo city defense army’s main camp. It was like a grand auto show!
Then the rich got out of their cars. The men were in suits and leather shoes, and the women were glowing. They all looked haughty.
They took out the invitation cards and slowly went through the entrance to the main camp before walking into the venue.
Just then, a black Mercedes Benz pulled up slowly in front of the main camp’s entrance.
Sean took a glance and walked over because it was Mayor Quentin’s car.
Quentin got out of the car with his precious daughter, Shania.
Quentin only brought Shania to the gala because the invitation had stated that the invitees could only bring no more than one guest. Uriah did not follow them here.
“Welcome to the city defense army’s main camp, Mayor Lewis. You don’t come here often, do you?” Sean walked up with a smile and made small talk to welcome them.
Quentin nodded with a smile and said, “Yeah, I don’t come here much. After all, it’s quite a long way from the mayor‘s residence to the city defense army’s main camp.”
Then Quentin glanced at the venue and asked, “Commander Lennon, you’re holding this charity fundraising gala to raise money for the slum, right?”
“Yes,” Sean nodded before adding, “I’ll have Zander put together a detailed report of the money raised for the gala today and how it’s used thereafter and send it to you.”
“No, no, no, I didn’t mean it like that. I believe in you, Commander Lennon. I know you won‘t embezzle it…”
