With that said, Lisha grabbed Sean's wrist and pulled him toward the exit of the antique market.Sean put away the Guardian Sword and followed Lisha out of the antique market.Madam Katy had bought the third ancient bronze sword fragment, so it was not in the antique market. In that case, Sean would not stay here and waste his time.Rapido's face darkened as he watched Sean and Lisha walk away with the bodyguards."D*mn it..."The sky was getting darker.Sean and Ms. Lisha returned to the mayor's residence, and it was only 7.30 p.m.—half an hour before 8 p.m."Thank you, Mr. Lennon. I had a great day. It's probably the best day I've had in a while."Lisha said with a smile."It's my honor that you're happy, Ms. Lisha."Sean said politely."Don't be so polite, Mr. Lennon. You're my savior. I don't want us to be like strangers."Lisha quickly said.Sean smiled and then said, "Okay, got it... If there's a chance, I can go shopping with you again.""That's great!"Lisha chee

“Then I'll leave it to you.”After chatting for a while, Sean and Lisha said goodbye to each other and left separately.Although they were all living in the mayor's residence, Sean and the other members of the diplomatic convoy lived in rooms located in the northwest corner, while Lisha lived in the center of the main residence, which was very close to where Claremento resided.The two were far apart and in opposite directions.After watching Lisha leave, Sean shook his head and walked towards his own room.Lisha was indeed a good woman.She had dazzling golden hair, crystal-clear blue eyes like gemstones, a gorgeous face, and a hot figure unique to women in the city-state.Moreover, she had a prominent identity and status, as well as a wealthy and strong family background.All of this made her shine like a dazzling jewel.What was the difference between such a woman and a princess of the Middle Ages?Even compared to Shania, Lisha was slightly inferior.However, Sean did no

Sean glanced expressionlessly at Shania and then this mischievous girl immediately shut her mouth obediently.After dinner, Sean returned to his room.Zander followed him, perhaps to report something, and Sean had some questions for him as well.Sean had been away from the mayor’s residence all day today, and who knew if anything bad had happened here after he left?“Commander.”Zander said as he approached Sean.“Have a seat.”Sean said as he pulled over a chair.Zander did not refuse and sat down on the chair. He then began to report his observations to Sean in detail.“Commander, after my observations these past few days, I found that the residents of Crosac are generally friendly towards Dorodo, especially towards the people from Dragon Kingdom. However, there’re also some unfriendly ones, mostly the native residents of the alliance, particularly the several big families of Crosac.”“The several big families of Crosac harbor some hostility towards Dorodo, and among them,

The next afternoon.Sean and Lisha left the mayor’s residence and headed to the Harvey Tower to attend the auction organized by the Harvey Chamber of Commerce.The Harvey Tower was located near the central square in the city center. Lisha drove Sean to the destination quickly.After they left the parking lot, they arrived at the entrance of the Harvey Tower.However, just as they stepped onto the steps, two security guards in suits stopped Sean and Lisha.“Are you guys here to attend the auction?”A security guard asked, with a suspicious expression on his face and constantly sizing up Sean.It was because Sean’s attire was too ordinary. He did not have a single designer brand from head to toe, and he even had a long sword hanging from his waist. Hence, such attire naturally aroused suspicion.Most importantly, Lisha was dressed elegantly and radiantly.When Sean and Lisha were standing together, they were like people from two different worlds, and the difference could be de

After Harvey came out of the building, he quickly walked over to Lisha.“I'm sorry, Ms. Lisha, it's my fault for not arranging things properly.” Harvey apologized with a smile, then turned around and gave an angry look to the two security guards.These two guys were too foolish as they did not know how to discern situations. Their thinking was too rigid, and they had no judgment at all!If he had known this would happen, he would never have let these two guys greet guests at the entrance.“You two idiots! Go collect your final paychecks and get out of here immediately!” Harvey ordered without hesitation.The two security guards immediately showed a pitiful look and looked at Harvey with pleading eyes.“Young Master Connor, we were just following your orders...”“Yes, Young Master Connor, it's not our fault...”The two security guards said helplessly.Harvey’s face turned livid with anger and he shouted, “How dare you talk back? This is outrageous!”Just then, a calm voice

Harvey was excitedly speaking, but before he could finish, Sean politely declined.“That's not necessary, Mr. Connor. We'll sit in the auction hall.”Of course, Lisha would not argue with Sean's decision, and she also thought that sitting in the auction hall on the first floor would be more lively than in a private room.Although the private room had comfortable sofas and tea and snacks, how could Lisha, as the daughter of the mayor, care about such things?“Since Mr. Lennon has decided to sit in the auction hall on the first floor, let's just sit there. The private rooms on the second floor can be reserved for even more distinguished guests.” Upon hearing Lisha's words, Harvey's face was full of bitter smiles.Lisha was the daughter of the mayor, and Sean was the commander-in-chief of the city defense army of Dorodo, making them the two giants of Dorodo.There were simply no guests in Crosac who could match their status.In fact, only the mayor of Crosac, Claremento Crosac, c

Lisha indeed had a strong interest in the culture of Dragon Kingdom, but only in terms of food and cultural landscapes, which was why she frequently visited the mainland of Dragon Kingdom as a tourist.However, Sean had never heard her mention her interest in paintings before.Lisha shook her head with a smile and said, “I'm not interested. I just want to participate in the auction.”“Oh, I see.” Sean nodded slightly.“Ms. Fifty-five bids one million five hundred thousand. Is there anyone willing to bid higher?“One million five hundred thousand going once!“One million five hundred thousand going twice!”“One—”Before the female auctioneer on the stage could announce the sale, someone else made a bid from below.“I bid one million six hundred thousand!”With this shout, the auction hall became lively again.“I bid one million six hundred and fifty thousand!”“I bid one million six hundred and sixty thousand!”“I bid one million seven hundred thousand!”“Two million!”

“This is an auction, whoever has the money gets it. If you don't want others to compete with you, then let your money do the talking!”“I bid three million and five hundred thousand!”The chaotic scene in the hall was incredibly lively, just like a marketplace.It had to be said that the female auctioneer on the stage was really good at creating hype, and the auction items this time were also very impressive, easily attracting the attention of the guests present.“Three million and five hundred thousand going once!“Three million and five hundred thousand going twice!“Three million and five hundred thousand sol—”Just as the female auctioneer was about to drop the hammer, Lisha suddenly raised her No. 55 paddle and shouted, “I bid five million!”The entire audience in the auction hall turned their heads and looked at Lisha in unison.Bidding an additional 1.5 million at once was definitely surprising to them.Besides, Lisha’s voice sounded so young, which made them even more
