Chapter 1872
However, they had no idea that Sean did not blame them.After all, fighting in wars was difficult work. Besides that, you would face life and death on the battlefield. Not everyone could endure it.It was not all Derrick and Benji's fault that they could not endure it."So they're in Midwich too. What a coincidence." Sean nodded with a chuckle.Gabe continued saying, "Derrick is now the director of the prosecutor's office. His rank is the same as mine. Benji didn't serve as a public servant. He started his own business. It's a big security company.""A security company?"Sean was mildly interested.Gabe nodded and said, "Yeah. To be honest, we soldiers don't know anything. We're just strong and could fight and kill. Derrick and I could survive by working for the government. Benji started his own business. He tried a lot of industries at first and couldn't make it. Then he got involved in the security industry before finally seeing some results. Benji's security company is called

Zander asked, "Commander, Aren't you mad at Derrick and Benji for abandoning the army?""Abandon?"Sean could not help laughing.He did not expect Zander to think Derrick and Benji had abandoned the army.It seemed Zander was mad about Derrick and Benji's retirement and must despise them. Otherwise, he would not have said such a thing.Sean laughed and said, "Derrick and Benji would have abandoned the army if they had suddenly deserted in the middle of a war. I will kill them without mercy according to military rules! But Derrick and Benji didn't desert in the middle of a war. Besides, they applied to discharge and retired as per the procedure. How is that abandoning?""But they couldn't stand the hardship after all. They retired because they're unwilling to continue bearing the responsibility of protecting the country."Zander said, gritting his teeth."Not everyone is capable of such a huge responsibility, and not everyone has steel-like willpower. Zander, you're asking too m

However, Sean and Zander were meeting with three old comrades today. There would be some discussion over the dining table about things that happened on the battlefield—many of which were military secrets, so no one could know.It would be bad if it leaked out.It was why Zander stressed the need for a private room. They would have to go to another restaurant for dinner if there was no private room available."Gentlemen, please come upstairs with me..."The waitress said and began leading the way, but a large group of people walked in just then.This group of people was in high-end suits. They all looked like successful people.The one at the front was a middle-aged man in his 40s, and the young man beside him was none other than Jonathan!"Give us a private room!"As soon as the group entered, the middle-aged man said in a voice so loud that the customers in the whole dining area might have heard him."I'm sorry. There are no more private rooms left."Another waitress said to

"What if I say no?"Sean asked in reply with a smile.Hearing Sean's words, the people around him looked at him and Zander with even greater surprise.It was because Sean was only an ordinary nobody to them, while Fernando was the patriarch of the Jensen family, who were influential in Midwich.Not to mention the moguls and entrepreneurs following behind Fernando.By doing so, Sean had offended not only Fernando, Jonathan, and the Jensen family but also many moguls and entrepreneurs!Having offended so many people, how dare Sean and Zander stay in Midwich any longer?However, Sean was so calm that they could not help feeling shocked.Fernando's face grew grimmer as he sneered.He said bluntly, "Sean, right? Do you know what happens when you offend the Jensen family? I, Fernando Jensen, don't rule Midwich, but many of my friends are willing to help me instead. To put it crudely, one word from me today will make your life in Midwich miserable!""Is it? I'd like to see it."Sea

"I didn't know I'm someone who likes to be late," Sean joked."No, no, no, that's not what I meant... It's just that our appointment was at 8.30 p.m., and it's only 8.10 p.m..."Gabe was scared to keep Sean waiting for the three of them, so he set it at Sky Restaurant at 8.30 p.m. Meanwhile, he told Derrick and Benji to arrive 20 minutes earlier.However, Sean and Zander unexpectedly came earlier than the three of them."Zander and I didn't have much to do either, so we came over early," Sean said with a nod.Gabe looked at Sean and then the people around him. Then he realized something was wrong.He then asked, "Mr. Lennon, you're already here. Why didn't you go to the private room? Why do you keep standing here? Has something happened?"Sean glanced meaningfully at Fernando. Fernando, Jonathan, the moguls, and the entrepreneurs around them looked shocked."Nothing. It's just that the restaurant only has one private room left. Unfortunately, the patriarch of the Jensen family,

Moreover, at least seven or eight out of ten companies had illegal problems. They would have a bigger problem if they found something.Among the three, Chief of Police Gabe put less pressure on others.Although the police department was the authority, and the chief had all the power, Gabe could not arrest people if they did not commit crimes. Relatively speaking, his power was more limited."Let's go. Let's leave and find another restaurant."Fernando quickly said to the moguls and entrepreneurs."Yes, yes, yes, let's eat at another restaurant.""I was almost scared to death.""Sean is not a pushover. Avoid him whenever you can if you meet him in the future."The men said as they sped out of Sky Restaurant as if running for their lives.A private room on the third floor.Sean had already sat down in the chair, and so did Zander and Gabe, but Derrick and Benji were still standing.Sean asked Zander to close the door. Then they looked at the two men and said, "Why are you stil

Benji and Derrick could not stand it anymore. The two men cried their eyes out in the private room. The waiter who opened the door was so shocked that he closed the door and left.Sean, Zander, and Gabe made Derrick and Benji sit beside the dining table.The two men cried while eating and drinking. They did not know whether it was white wine or tears that they drank.Before they knew it, they were drunk.Gabe also spoke emotionally as he recalled the days of fighting for their lives with Sean, Zander, and the others on the battlefield."Wipe away your tears. You're men who have gone through fire and blood. Why are you acting like women?"Sean said, handing over a napkin.Derrick and Benji quickly wiped the tears from their faces, but their eyes soon watered again.Sean then changed the subject and said, "Gabe, Derrick, one of you is the chief of police, and the other is the director of the prosecutors' office. Both of you held government posts. You're only protecting Dragon Kin

"These banks withdrew their loans all at once, so my company is now experiencing financial problems. The capital chain might break... I've been trying to get a loan from another bank, but we haven't reached an agreement yet."With that said, Benji gave a long sigh."How much money do you need?"Sean asked directly.Without hesitation, Benji immediately replied, "At least 50 million dollars."50 million!It was no small sum.Gabe and Derrick were silent. After all, both of them made just over 10,000 dollars a month.50 million was countless months of their salary."Forget it. Forget it. Let's not talk about it. It will only upset us... Let's continue drinking."Benji said as he changed the subject.He also did not want to put Gabe, Derrick, Zander, and Sean on the spot. He was a tough guy who did not want to worry his old comrades with his affairs.Besides, why would he want Sean's help when he already felt guilty about Sean?He was not a shameless man.Sean said nothing m
