As soon as Jagoan finished speaking, there was a round of applause at the gala venue.
All the guests clapped, and most of them nodded enthusiastically in agreement.
Just then, three middle-aged men suddenly walked in from outside.
These three middle-aged men were none other than the patriarch of the Walker family, Elijah, the patriarch of the Stewart family, Cole, and the patriarch of the Lambert family, Dylan.
The heads of the three influential families claimed they had something to do, so they sent their sons to the gala with the invitations to deliberately make trouble. However, they got the news about Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan’s arrest and hurriedly rushed over.
After all, Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan were their flesh and blood, and they could not watch their sons go to jail and even be branded spies for other cities.
“S-Sorry, sorry, Commander Jagoan. We’re late…” Elijah walked in and said to Jagoan with a smile.
“I-I’m really sorry. I had something to do today, so I had my son attend the fundraising gala. I just managed to find time now,” Cole said.
Dylan said nothing and was looking haughtily at Jagoan.
Jagoan’s expression remained unfazed, and he still smiled faintly. “Now that you’re here, sit down…”
Hearing Jagoan‘s remark, Elijah, Cole, and Dylan prepared to take their seats. However, they did not find an empty chair after walking around the back twice!
“Well… Commander Jagoan, you didn’t prepare seats for us…” Elijah’s smile had already stiffened, and Cole and Dylan even scowled.
However, Jagoan was as calm as ever.
How could Jagoan disrespect Elijah, Cole, and Dylan by letting them stand at the gala?
