Chapter 1697
Initially, the reception at the Noble Hotel was held to wee the Xyperian Foreign Minister, Leigh and his eight warlords.
However, after they had provoked Nathan, they were taught a great lesson instead
Feeling utterly embarrassed, Leigh did not want to stay any longer and decided to leave the ce with his eight warlords who were heavily injured.
Even though Leigh and his men had left. it did not dampen the lively atmosphere of the reception.
The leaders and guests who attended the reception had nothing else but admiration for Nathan.
First Lady Cami, also took the opportunity to introduce some of Brimmopolis'' nobles to Nathan, in order to form good connections for him.
Even though Nathan was the General of the frontier, he hardly made friends with the nobles and the riches in Brimmopolis because he had been
guarding the North for all these years.
Cami knew that before her husband retired from his position, he wanted Nathan to be introduced into the Cab.
Therefore, she was constantly helping Nathan pave his way.
There was another person whe was unhappy that night. It was none other than Clifford Davier.
Even until now, Clifford couldn''t let go of the grudge of his daughter''s death.
He had wanted to see how Nathan would disgrace himself tonight, but he did not expect him to defeat all the eight warlords from Xyperia instead.
Clifford was totally shocked.
At that moment, he smiled and said, "First Lady, General, since Xyperia''s Foreign Minister and his men have left, I won''t stay any longer too. I''ll leave
for now.”
Cami replied smilingly. “Have a safe journey, Mr. Davier.
He smiled once again and departed with his men.
The moment he turned around, his smile disappeared and his face darkened.
While Nathan looked at Clifford leaving the hall, thoughts started piling in.
Then, Cami spoke softly to Nathan, “Both Clifford and Boris were the most voted candidates to be the next President. Seeing that Boris is in jail
now, his chance of taking the seat is higher now.”
Nathan nodded, “I know.
Cami continued, “Regarding Phoebe''s matter, you could have handled it better.”
Phoebe!
Clifford Davier''s daughter.
That time, Phoebe conspired with Santiago and set the orphanage on fire, then harmed Penny in order to seek revenge on Nathan.
In the end, Santiago was killed by Nathan and Phoebe died because he insisted on pursuing the matter at all costs
Cami was lecturing Nathan that he should have given Phoebe a chance to live.

Since Phoebe had already died, Cami knew that it was useless for her to talk about that anymore.
Then, she digressed and reminded
him softly, “Boris is a vile person.

Clifford was indeed a ruthless man.
Previously, in order to satisfy Nathan when he insisted on holding Phoebe ountable; it was Clifford who had ordered her only daughter to be shot
to death.
A person like him who would do that to his own flesh and blood was definitely relentless, let alone the things he would do to his enemies.
Nathan responded calmly, “Thank you madam for reminding, I will definitely be more aware.

The magnificent gates opened slowly while a red sedan and a few escorting ck cars entered.

Just as he was making his way, he heard chatters from the living room.
Clifford was stunned while he asked around, “Who''s visiting the house? Why is it so lively tonight?
Someone replied in a hurried manner, “Sir, young master has returned from abroad.”
His face beamed with joy after hearing that his son had returned home.
At that moment, a tall handsome man walked out from the living room while being surrounded by a group of family members.
That man was Kiel indeed.
