Chapter 1651


    All this showed that the private room was not for ordinary people.


    After Quentin, Shania, Anne, Boneng, and Adrian sat on the brown couch, the female attendant who


    followed them inside smiled and said, “Mayor Lewis, there are staff outside who can help you if you


    need anything, or you can just contact me. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first…”


    “Okay, I’ll leave you to your work.” Quentin nodded with a smile.


    After the female attendant left, Boneng asked curiously, “Mayor Lewis, the woman earlier…”


    “She’s Celine James, the owner of New Era Cinema,” Quentin replied.


    Boneng was immediately impressed!


    Anne was a little surprised. He thought the woman was an attendant. He did not expect her to be the


    owner of the cinema.


    It was not easy for a woman to own such a grand cinema. It was because this was not Dragon


    Kingdom but the City-State Union.


    In the chaotic City-State Union, the idea that women were inferior to men was deeply rooted in the


    people’s minds. It was difficult for women to make it here.


    The female owner named Celine looked like she was in herte 20s, but she had already such an


    aplishment. She was indeed tough.


    The movie began to y.


    However, the only people interested in the movie were the two girls, Adrian and Shania.


    Neither Quentin, Boneng, nor Anne had any interest in what was going on in the movie. They were not


    there to watch the movie.


    “Commander Edgar and Mr. Townsend, I’m sorry for what the captain of my personal guard, Tobias, did


    earlier…” Quentin spoke first.


    “It’s alright. It’s in the past. Besides, you didn’t order him to do such a thing.” Boneng’s face was full of


    smiles.


    “But it’s still my responsibility. I didn’t control my people well.”


    Boneng was ttered by Quentin’s attitude. However, Boneng knew why Quentin was apologizing in


    front of him. It was all because of Anne!


    If it were not for Anne, Quentin would never have invited him and his daughter to a private meeting at


    New Era Cinema, much less to apologize in person. After all, the difference in their status was obvious.


    It was not something you could erase easily.


    Anne asked faintly, “So, how did you take care of Tobias?”


    “Tobias has been tried by an emergency court and is now imprisoned for life,” Quentin said solemnly.


    Hearing this, Anne nodded with satisfaction.

    The City-State Union’s life imprisonment was indeed for life.


    One would be locked up until death. Besides that, it was not just ordinary detention. One had to do


    manualbor every day!


    It was unlike Dragon Kingdom, where it was only life imprisonment in name, but was actually only 25


    years, and one could get a reduced sentence for good behavior. At least the City-State Union’s


    punishment was far more severe than Dragon Kingdom.


    Boneng was pleased with the result, of course.


    He nodded and said, “Thank you, Mayor Lewis. Frederic has told me that he has retrieved the antiques


    Tobias took. Besides that, he also got a nicepensation. Mayor Lewis, this is all thanks to you.


    Here’s a toast to you!”


    With that said, Boneng picked up the coffee cup in front of him.


    After picking up the coffee cup, Boneng realized this was not a restaurant and what he picked up was


    not wine, so he quickly corrected himself. “Let’s use coffee instead of wine. Hahaha…”


    Quentin nodded before taking a sip of his coffee.
