Led by Bella, the ladies all scoffed.
Sean also mocked, “Even the governor has to show respect and attend in person when Simon- Tooke hosts a birthday banquet. Who do you think you are? How dare you criticize Simon- Tooke?
“I might as well tell you now. The purpose of today’s banquet is to target Celestial Enterprise. Celestial Enterprise has already become the mark of public criticism. They’ll be erased after today!”
Andrius could not be bothered to talk with them and casually said, “Just wait and see.”
Then, Sonia and he walked into the hall.
Sean’s eyes were dark and greedy as he looked at Sonia’s graceful posture as she left. “Hmph. you when Even now, you still dare to put on airs in front of me. Watch and see how I deal with Celestial Enterprise falls!”
When he thought of Sonia’s exquisite and charming body at the mercy of his whims, Sean could not help but get excited. He already played out the scenario in his head a hundred times!
Andrius and Sonia walked to the middle of the large hall and were naturally seated at the
centermost table.
The rest of the guests were also present.
The large hall was full of excitement.
However, no one dared to come up and talk to Andrius and Sonia.
Everyone knew that the moment the banquet started would be the moment when Celestial Enterprise was sentenced to death. They naturally would invite trouble for themselves at a time like this.
As for joining forces with Simon–Tooke, a foreign–funded company…
There was no such thing.
Dean’s power already frightened everyone.
In their view, chewing and swallowing Celestial Enterprise up together with Simon–Tooke was more important.
It had to be said that this was what was sad about short–sighted capitalists. They had no integrity or backbone. Their short–sighted eyes could only see the small benefits in front of them.
Soon, the large hall was overcrowded and filled to capacity.
All the guests and dignitaries invited were present without a single one missing.
The seats were naturally arranged carefully. They were positioned in accordance to the dignitaries‘ status. The high–ranking people sat in the front, followed by the lower–ranking
ones behind.
Only Andrius and Sonia stood out. They sat at a table for two, exposed in front of everyone in

full view. They stuck out like sore thumbs.

“Phew…” Andrius was calm and smoked a military district cigarette, completely indifferent.
At a nearby table, a powerful man looked at Andrius and asked in confusion, “That cigar… Why do I feel like it’s the special cigarette that’s supplied to the military district?”
“Are you daft? Can he afford to smoke the special cigarettes from the military district?”
“Exactly. Those cigarettes are only supplied internally to the regional big shots of the military. The supply doesn’t even meet the demand. How would someone like him be able to smoke those cigarettes?”
“Did you get drunk even before you started drinking?”
“Why are you so confused now?”
Everyone scolded him on the spot.
The man winced and could only smile sheepishly, not daring to say another word.
At that point, only the table next to Andrius was left empty.
It was also in the center of the hall. It was specially reserved for the governor, the captain of the Shadow Wolves, and some other important people.
