"My expectation isn't to have you die in battle. I'd rather you live well and have your own life. You're doing good
now, and I'm pleased. You have not failed me," Sean said truthfully.
Benji and Derrick could not stand it anymore. The two men cried their eyes out in the private room.
The waiter who opened the door was so shocked that he closed the door and left.
Sean, Zander, and Gabe made Derrick and Benji sit beside the dining table.
The two men cried while eating and drinking. They did not know whether it was white wine or tears that they drank.
Before they knew it, they were drunk.
Gabe also spoke emotionally as he recalled the days of fighting for their lives with Sean, Zander, and the others on
the battlefield.

said, handing over a napkin.
Derrick and Benji quickly wiped the tears from their faces, but their eyes soon watered again.
Sean then changed the subject and said, "Gabe, Derrick, one of you is the chief of police, and the other is the
director of the prosecutors' office. Both of you held government posts. You're only protecting Dragon Kingdom
differently. Benji, you too. I heard you're now the chairman of Liamson Security Services. You're a tycoon and
entrepreneur. You're driving Dragon Kingdom's economy and also contributing to Dragon Kingdom..."
"Commander Lennon, stop consoling us. We know what we're capable of," Gabe said with a bitter smile.
Derrick also said, "Yeah, we live peaceful lives here. How can we compare to you? Commander, you and Zander
are on the front lines fighting against the enemy and defending Dragon Kingdom's land. Compared to you and
Zander, we're too..."
Derrick wanted to say they were too shameful, but he could not say it out loud.
"It's no big deal. Take it easy..."
Sean took a sip of wine, put down his glass, looked at Benji, and asked, "Benji, I heard from Gabe that your
company is in trouble?"
"Gabe even told you that?"
Benji looked at Sean in disbelief and turned to look at Gabe.
"Gabe, how can you share everything? It's my own business. How could you make Commander Lennon worry about
me?" Gabe instantly turned away in embarrassment, acting like he knew nothing.
Sean smiled and said to Benji, "Benji, just tell us if you're in trouble. We're old comrades in arms. Is there anything

"No, Commander Lennon. I couldn't trouble you..." Benji was so nervous that he was extremely respectful without
realizing it.
Zander could not stand it anymore and snapped, "Just tell us when we ask you to tell us. What's the matter? Do you
want Commander to give you a direct order?"
However, Benji kept his mouth tight and said nothing.
Sean immediately turned serious, raised his voice, and said, "Benji Liamson!"
"Yes sir!" Benji replied as if out of reflex.
"Tell me what trouble your company is in!"
Benji finally replied, "Commander, my security company..."
Benji came to his senses in the middle of his speech. At that moment, he felt like he was back in the army, being
reviewed by Sean.
