Chapter 132
Qemal looked beyond proud to own such an exclusive invitation. He shoved away the soldier whostood in front of him and shot him a murderous glare. "Take a good look at this. This is a special'VIP' invitation, reserved only for the most powerful! How dare you stand in my way? You'd better beon your best behavior, or else!"
The soldiers all balked and allowed Qemal to pass when they saw his special "VIP" invitation.
However, Liam suddenly froze in his steps and turned to stare at the arrogant Stones who followedin his wake. "Didn't they say the invitations are fake? Didn't they accuse me of producing fakeinvitations in an attempt to sneak into the event? Well, since it's my doing, these invitations havenothing to do with you, right? Sergeant, confiscate their invitations! Without invitations, they won't beable to get inside!"
With that, Liam took Celena's hand and strode into the hall with Jovie in his arms.
"Dad, what shameless people they are! I'm so embarrassed," Jovie said, glancing at the Stoneswho got stopped at the door.
The soldiers all stopped the Stones before they could enter, leaving them staring in shock at Liam,Celena, and Jovie's retreating figures.
The sergeant barked, "Men, take their invitations away and kick them out of here!"
The soldiers snatched the Stones' invitations away, and the moment they did so, Sherah shrieked,"How dare you do this to us! Take a good look at this! This is the special 'VIP' invitation issued bythe mayor himself! By taking these away from us, you're disobeying the mayor's orders!"
With that, Sherah pried herself free of the soldier who was holding her back, adjusted her hair, andthen sauntered into the hall tall and proud!
The rest of the Stones followed her.
The sergeant and his soldiers did not know what to do, but since Sherah and the rest of the Stonesindeed possessed the special "VIP" invitations, they did not dare to kick them out, for fear ofdisobeying the mayor's commands.
Wasyl, on the other hand, watched in horror as the Stones all disappeared into the hall. Finally, therest of the "regular" guests were allowed inside.
The event finally started after everyone was seated. By this time, everyone forgot all about thefiasco that happened outside and instead began to enjoy their food.
All of a sudden, Malcolm stepped onto the stage in a black tuxedo. Someone in the audiencecaught sight of him and shouted, "Look, it's Mr. Lynch!"
Someone else piped up, "What a handsome man! Only a military veteran could look so smart andhandsome!"
"Of course! Mr. Lynch is already a general despite being in his early thirties. Not only is he in chargeof guarding our city, but he's even taken up a second job as our mayor! No one else hasaccomplished such an incredible feat in the history of Drunham City!"
"Mr. Lynch is going to accomplish great things!"
The guests all raised their glasses in a toast to Malcolm, and Malcolm gave them a wave and nod ofacknowledgment. Finally, he straightened up and gazed out at the audience. "Ladies andgentlemen, I am honored to have you all attend this exclusive event! From today onwards, MaxGroup will work hand in hand with all of you to provide a better future for this city!
