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

"Not everyone is capable of such a huge responsibility, and not everyone has steel-like willpower. Zander, you're
asking too much."
Sean waved his hand and motioned for Zander to sit down. However, instead of sitting down, Zander turned around
and went to make Sean a cup of tea.
"We don't know what Benji's trouble is yet. We'll find out when we ask him tomorrow or the next day over a drink. If
it's a financial problem, I will help him," Sean said to Zander.
Zander put down the teacup and nodded earnestly.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
In these three days, Sean and Zander had gone out to explore the city a few times. Although they did not explore
the entire of Midwich, they visited some of the more famous places. The two now had some understanding of
Midwich.
It was getting dark. 8 pm.
Sean and Zander alighted a taxi and stood before Sky Restaurant's entrance.
Sky Restaurant was a popular restaurant in Midwich. Besides that, it was expensive, about 1,000 dollars per person.
1,000 dollars per person was not cheap. With one person having to spend 1,000 dollars here, a group of people
having a meal here would cost almost 10,000 dollars. Such a cost was already expensive.
It was unknown whether because today was a weekend or some other reason. There were a lot of customers in Sky
Restaurant.
As soon as Sean and Zander walked into the dining area, there was a lively atmosphere. The whole place was full of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpeople, most of whom were friends meeting for dinner and drinks.
"Hello, table for how many people, please?" A waitress walked over and asked with a smile.
The waitress was young and polite. You could tell she was trained. Besides that, the red dress she wore was no
regular material. The fabric was of high quality. The look of it alone was comforting.
"We have five people in total..." Sean said to the waitress.
"Okay, we still have a table in the dining area..."
Before the waitress could finish speaking, Zander asked eagerly, "Only tables in the lobby? Are there no private
rooms?"
"Private rooms are temporarily..."
While the waitress was talking, another waitress came over and whispered something in her ear.
The waitress's face lit up immediately, and she said, "You two are lucky. Someone just left, so we have a private
room available now."
"It's great that you have one," Zander nodded with satisfaction.
Normally, it did not matter if they got a private room.
