Charlotte was Ronald's first wife and the mistress of the Townsend family. Therefore, he had to give her face.
Sean raised his glass and said with a smile, "Mrs. Townsend, my thanks to your husband and the Townsend family's
support for Dorodo's city defense army over the years.
"You're too kind," Charlotte said excitedly, raising her glass to her mouth and finishing it in one gulp.
"I'm not being kind. I'm telling you the truth. Dorodo city defense soldiers are several notches better off because of
your husband's support. The quilts, clothes, and other living supplies are a great help to the city defense army."
Charlotte smiled ear to ear, and she looked at Sean with intense satisfaction.
Ronald had invited the commanders-in-chief of the city defense army to their home for dinner before, but the
previous commanders-in-chief had always looked like they were above them and spoke arrogantly.

"By the way, why didn't I see Ronald? Where did he go?" Sean asked.
Charlotte's expression instantly stiffened at Sean's words.
Mila quickly explained, "Well, Mr. Lennon... A representative from Raphael City has just arrived to talk business with
my husband. They're on the second floor right now."
"Oh, I see..." Sean nodded.
Zander standing nearby reminded promptly, "The strong hold giant crossbow that Mr. Townsend said is developed
and produced by Raphael City."
Sean's eyes narrowed slightly at Zander's reminder.
Ronald had paid a deposit to Raphael City to buy stronghold giant crossbows and sell them to Dorodo's city defense
army. However, due to Sean's refusal, there was no way Ronald would be buying those stronghold giant crossbows,
and he wanted the deposit returned.
Someone from Raphael City had come to Dorodo and Ronald's house. Then the thing they were going to talk about
was most likely the stronghold giant crossbow.
Just then, there was suddenly a piercing sound of something breaking on the second floor.
Charlotte and Mila's expressions changed, and the others were not looking so good either.
Sean stood up and said, "Stay right here. I'll go upstairs and check."
"But..."
Charlotte seemed to have something to say, but Sean cut her off before she could finish.
"Don't worry. I'm helping your husband."

With that said, Sean and Zander both went upstairs.
***
The second floor.
Ronald stood in front of the sofa in the luxurious drawing room with an awkward expression.
In front of him were two middle-aged men in military uniforms.
One could tell at a glance that they were not from Dragon Kingdom. With purple eyes and round noses, people
could tell they were foreigners from every angle.
These two were visibly threatening Ronald.
"We had a deal, and now you want to back out? Do you have any idea how much trouble that gives us?"
"Mr. Townsend, how disrespectful of you! Are all Dragon Kingdom people so unreliable?"
Ronald defiantly explained, "It's not that I'm unreliable. We didn't sign a contract for the stronghold giant crossbows
in the first place. We haven't even closed the deal yet. Changing my mind now isn't considered a breach of
contract."
