Chapter 1799


    Exasperated, Cole mmed on the table and said, “Jagoan is out of line. Asmander-in-chief of the


    city defense army, why is he meddling in this issue? Is that his responsibility?”


    “What’s the point of youshing out at us?” Elijah spread out his hands in a gesture of frustration.


    Dn coughed and continued saying, “Whatever Jagoan does, at least we can’t disagree openly. After


    all, he’s themander-in-chief of the city defense army. He is way above us in rank and status. And


    he has Dragon Kingdom’s military supporting him. How are we going to fight him? We only have to be


    uncooperative, passive, and unhelpful. Poverty is a chronic problem. Even if he wants to solve it, he


    can’t.”


    After a pause, Dn said, “Every city in the City-State Union is the same. Is there a city that doesn’t


    have poor people? If Jagoan can fix poverty, I’ll write my name backward!”


    “You’re being dramatic, Old Lambert…” Elijah was as cordial as ever.


    Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.


    Elijah looked at the door and said, “Come in…”


    With that said, a young man pushed the door open and entered.


    The young man was Elijah’s son, Lionel Walker.


    Lionel walked in and ced an envelope on the clear ss coffee table.


    “Look, Dad… Someone from the army camp sent over a letter just now.”


    Elijah nodded, opened the envelope, and took out an invitation.


    The invitation said, [The city defense army’s main camp will hold a charity fundraising g at 8 pm. two


    days from now. Please attend, Mr. Walker. You can abstain if you have something to do. You can bring


    at most one guest with you.]


    Cole and Dn gathered over to look. The two looked at the invitation and showed disdainful


    expressions.


    “How is that an invitation? Haha, it’s just a crappy piece of paper,” Cole said dismissively.


    Elijah ced the invitation on the coffee table and slowly said, “It seems Jagoan’s going to gather


    Dorodo‘s wealthy businessmen and noble families to donate money to the poor. Perhaps I’m not the


    only one who has received this invitation. Other invitations have been sent to your home respectively,


    and other rich families and wealthy businessmen must have received them too.”


    “Should we attend this bullsh*t fundraising g then?” Cole asked exasperatedly.

    “Of course, but we don’t have to go ourselves. Didn’t it say so on the invitation? You don’t have to


    It was supposed to be a polite gesture, but it gave Elijah, Cole, and Dn an excuse not to attend.


    “Yeah, yeah, we have something to do. We’re busy. We don’t have time to go to some fundraising


    g,” Cole nodded approvingly.


    Dn vaguely sensed something was wrong, but he nodded and said, “That’s settled then. We’ll send


    our heirs two dayster. We’re not going.”


    “What if Jagoan asks for a donation?” Cole asked again.


    Elijah said with a chuckle, “We’ll donate then. Why not? I can afford a donation… Be generous and


    give him 100 dors.”
