He carefully handed the gold off to Francesca , who grinned brightly as her dimples deepened .

Mr.

Sanford , you and your team should sit down before all the foods gone ! Francesca said warmly .

Rodney waved his hand , polite as ever .

No need to worry about us , Ms.

Aicker .

Well just grab a spot anywhere .

After that , he quickly led the Madblade Martial Academy members to an empty table , keeping things humble despite their earlier fanfare .

Dean subtly nudged Rodney and whispered , Mr.

Sanford , look over at the VIP section .

Rodney followed his gaze and immediately tensed up .

His heart skipped a beat when he realized sitting at the head table were Jayrodales top power players ; Marvin , the wealthiest man in Jayrodale ; Tiana , the matriarch of the Rhodes family ; Cedric , the famous doctor , and Mark , the mayor himself .

Good thing we came to offer respect instead of trouble .

Francesca shook her head .

Lauren grinned mischievously .
