Chapter 124
Celena could not help but be stunned.
"L-Liam, were you the one called for them? T-These are tanks! You got them here with just a call?" Celena pulled Liam back as he was about to leave. Her eyes widened in disbelief.
Liam smiled. He held Celena's hand and said, "That's right. Have you forgotten that I used to be in the army? I have several comrades in Drunham City, so I got them to help. Let's quickly get in or we'll be late for dinner. Also, they will have to return after they drop us off."
"Mmhmm. Alright."
Celena nodded. She quickly got into the car while Liam held her hand.

The people on the road stayed after they took photos of the tanks that were parked. More people were taking photos after seeing three of them enter the car.
Celena felt a little embarrassed as she looked at the onlookers. They were too eye-catching.
Meanwhile, armed soldiers were everywhere near the venue of the dinner. The security was extremely tight. That was because the people who cfor the dinner were either big shots in the army and political field or top families and entrepreneurs in Drunham City.
The entrance of the venue was filled with influential people from the city. Everyone had an invitation in their hand. They were all waiting for their invitations to be inspected before they could enter.
Most of the people in the waiting area knew each other, so they started talking to each other while waiting. After they exchanged spleasantries, they started talking about business.
"Oh yes, have you heard? Malcolm has invited a very important guest today."
"Is that so? Could it be a big shot from the military? Could it be General Lexington from the Southern Division?"
"You haven't heard? Looks like you're not up to date with the news."
"Don't keepguessing. Hurry and tellwho this big shot is."
"General Lexington is not nearly as important as this guest. He's the commander-in-chief of the Pendragon Warriors who commands tens of thousands of men. He's King Pendragon, himself. He's truly an important guest, isn't he?"
The waiting area was just the right size, but everyone heard what that man said. In an instant, the area was abuzz with discussions.

Right at that moment, the Stones arrived at the venue in the MPVs.
They were stunned by the view as soon as they got out of the car.
The whole venue was decorated majestically. The security detail all over were actually soldiers from Drunham City's military region! All of them were fully armed and looked impressive!
The people who attended were all at the top of the high society in Drunham City. There was not a single second-tier family like the Stones!
Therefore, when the Stones got out of the car, the people in the waiting area would glance at them weirdly from tto time.
"Wow! Grandpa, look at how bustling it is! So many famous people of Drunham City are here!" Cheryl shouted in excitement the moment she got out of the car.
Qemal also ccloser, smiling. As he looked in the direction of the waiting area, his eyes were filled with schemes and greediness. He said, "Yes, Grandpa! There are so many top distinguished families here. If we could get to know one or two of them, then it would bring endless benefits to our family!"
