The driver's lounge ten minutes later.
However, the drivers had all been kicked to the ballroom. Instead, the less
qualified could not enter the lounge that was supposed to be reserved for drivers.
Sean sat on the couch and quietly watched the people before him.
Miriam eagerly bent over and poured tea for Sean.
Monica came up with a smile on her face and said, "Commander Lennon, you
surprised me. I didn't expect a random guy I bumped into on the street to be the
commander-in-chief of the city defense army.”
Hearing Monica's words, Sean took a sip of tea and replied, "It's a good thing you
ran into me. That's why there wasn't an accident. If it were the average person,
they would have died crashing with your car.”
"You're right, Commander Lennon," Monica nodded with a smile.
"Commander Lennon, why don't I examine you?" Benedict asked passionately.
However, Sean shook his head. "No, I know how my body is. I don't need you to
examine me."
"You're right. Commander Lennon, you're a good doctor. You're no worse than
me. How could you need me to examine you?" Benedict said with a chuckle.
Then Sean looked at Miriam.
The girl had kept her head down from the beginning, not daring to say a word or
even gasp.
With Sean suddenly staring at her, she almost cried out of nervousness.
"Are you Miriam?" Sean asked.
Miriam nodded tearfully and explained aggrievedly, "Commander Lennon, I-I
didn't know you were the city defense army's commander-in-chief. I didn't
recognize you. I didn't mean to..."
Recalling how she had taken out her anger on Sean, even yelling at him and
threatening to have the guards kick him out, Miriam was so ashamed that she
wanted to crawl into a hole in the ground and never come out.
"It doesn't matter. You didn't know, so you're innocent. Besides, it's not a big
deal,” Sean said nonchalantly.
He went on saying after a pause, "You did a great job with the ball, but don't be
so extravagant anymore in the future."
"Yes, got it."
What else could Miriam say but quickly nod?
Then Sean looked up at the people standing in the back. These were guests of
the ball, and they were top distinguished businessmen.
There were 70 or 80 guests at the ball tonight, yet only ten were in the room now.
One could say they had the highest status of all the guests at the ball or they
were unqualified to enter the now-exclusive lounge.
"Dorodo's economy has been growing steadily because of you. But it's
inappropriate to indulge in excessive drinking. I hope you can restrain yourself,"
Sean said flatly.
"Yes, yes, yes. We understand.”
"I usually wear simple clothes. I rented a suit for Ms. Wosh's ball to keep up
appearances.”
"l wore a rental too."
"We lead simple lives."
The wealthy businessmen said quickly, but Sean would be unbelievably naive to
believe them.
Sean was not going to say any more. "Alright, be gone. I've had desserts and
tea. It's time I leave..."
With that said, Sean stood up.
"Stay a little longer, Commander Lennon. It's still early."
"Yeah, it's not yet dark outside!"
"It's only 7 p.m. What's your hurry? Please stay, sir."
Sean waved his hand and headed for the door. The wealthy businessmen
wanted him to stay, but none dared
to stop him. Shania also rose to leave. Then she and Uriah followed Sean out of
the Wosh family's villa.
It was not until Sean left that the businessmen in the lounge finally breathed a
sigh of relief.
