The Guardian's Sword

Aria held the necklace and scornfully sized up Shania as she said to the man
beside her, "Lowich, it seems we shouldn't have visited Dorodo. It's much worse
than Crosac. Besides, as the daughter of the mayor of Dorodo, she can't even
afford a necklace, which is so embarrassing. I'm mortified to think that she and I
are both daughters of a mayor!"

"Yeah, she doesn't deserve to be the mayor's daughter..." The man Aria called
Lowich smacked his lips and said.

Shania's cheeks turned red instantly. However, it was not because of shyness but
anger!

She was Mayor Quentin's daughter. She deserved to be the daughter of a mayor,
of course. However, Aria laughed at her.

How could she endure it?

"Who says I can't afford it? I'll buy it now!"

Shania then stretched her hand to Aria and said, "Give me the necklace. I'll buy it
now!"

"Forget about it, Shania. Do you have that much money on you? Don't tell me
you're going to max out your credit card,” Aria said with a chuckle.

Shania did plan to use her credit card to buy it. After all, she did not have that
much cash on her.

All the bank cards in her purse added up to only half a million dollars.

Although she was Quentin's daughter, Quentin would not let her spend lavishly.
He gave her an allowance of no more than a million dollars a month.

She had used up about half of the one million dollars allowance this month. She
could not afford such a necklace without a credit card!

Shania was speechless, unable to utter a word to defend herself.

Just then, Sean suddenly spoke up. "Ms. Lewis is the daughter of the mayor of
Dorodo. She does not need to buy things herself. I'll buy it for her."

Aria and Lowich had ignored Sean until now. After all, Sean's outfit was ordinary.
His entire outfit was estimated to be worth less than 100 dollars. They naturally
assumed he was Shania's bodyguard.

It was why the two had been talking to Shania since they showed up. They did
not even pay him any attention. However, Sean instantly drew the two's attention
when he spoke up.

"You? Who are you?" Lowich said bluntly.

Aria also said, "How dare a mere bodyguard stick his neck out? Who do you
think you are? Who gave you the right to speak?"

"It doesn't matter who I am. All that matters is that Ms. Lewis saw the necklace
first. And she didn't say she's not buying it. She just put it back in the jewelry box
to wrap it up so she could take it away later. You're from Crosac, aren't you?
Crosac is indeed stronger than Dorodo, but this is Dorodo. I hope you'll follow our
rules..." Sean said with slight emphasis.

Shania was excited after hearing Sean's words.

Honestly, she did not expect Sean to stand up for her. After all, Sean had just
earnestly told her what made her think he would buy her the necklace!

The contrast was so big that Shania's eyes were slightly red with excitement.
