Chapter 122
His Lordship Alexander Kane
Chapter 0122
In less than 20 minutes, the door to Amberâs office was opened once more.
The mayor of Olâ Mare, Lewis Christian, arrived.
âM-Mister Christian?â Hugo still sat on the couch with his legs crossed, mocking Alexander and Amber. When he saw Lewis
enter, he was so frightened that he
shuddered. He almost jumped from the couch.
The man in front of him was the real decision-maker of Olâ Mare. He held the highest power in Olâ Mare. Behind him were all
leaders of every industry in Olâ Mare. All of them had the power to shake up the entire Olâ Mare.
Lewis and the staff that he brought with him stood on both sides timidly, minutely trembling.
This man dared to sit in Lewisâ presence? A lowly rank staff like him did not even have the right to be in the presence of the
mayor, let alone sit.
Lewis did not even glance at Hugo and his staff members. His gaze was directed
toward Alexander and Amber.
The Lord of War...
This great man was on the same level as the ruler of Wyverna. He could only revere
him!
âMister Kane...â Lewis naturally would not dare to reveal Alexanderâs true identity.
He walked up to Alexander and was about to shake his hand when he stopped short.
He did not dare to shake Alexanderâs hands.
He was only a mayor. How could he shake hands with the Lord of War?
The Lord of War, His Lordship, the Commander of the Northern Wyverna Army... Any
of this being mentioned would turn OIâ Mare into chaos.
âNice to meet you, Mister Christian.â Alexander smiled ambiguously and shook hands with Lewis. âIâve told you about the incident
through the phone. I just hope
you'd be fair and just and give us lowly citizens an explanation.â
Lowly citizens?
Lewis stumbled and almost fell.
âYour Lordship, if you're a lowly citizen, what am I? A beggar? I won't even be
qualified to be one!â Lewis mused to himself.
âYou're Miss Amber Chesire, correct?â Lewis did not dare talk too much to
Alexander. After shaking hands with him, he immediately turned to look at Amber
and smiled. âOur city is famous for entrepreneurs. Youâve taken over Severn Group and managed it with great success. You've
brought great contributions to the economy in Ol Mare. It is a great honor to meet you!â
Amber was a little surprised. Why was the mayor, a great man, so polite to her?
An honor, he said? The mayor's praise was too much for her!
âM-Mister Christian.â Amber was unspeakably nervous, but she still generously
shook hands with Lewis. Then, she said bitterly, âI donât know where we went wrong
to have supposedly violated the rules of the Food and Drug Administration. Iâm sorry
to cause you trouble.â
Trouble?
âNot a problem at all!â Lewis waved dismissively. âMiss Chesire, youâve managed it well. You've solved the problem of eight
thousand jobs. I canât thank you enough!â
Then, he turned and barked at Hugo, âYou. What is going on? What rules did New Chesire Group violate? If you canât produce
any proof, I'll get you fired!â
He was truly livid.
Ever since Alexander came to Olâ Mare, he had dreamed of impressing him. He never would have thought that the first time he
met Alexander was in such a situation, all because of some stupid issue. It was utterly embarrassing.
I...â Hugo shuddered. His legs turned to jelly.
From the moment Lewis entered and shook hands with Alexander and praised Amber, he was so frightened that he almost peed
his pants. He was dumbstruck, and
his lips quivered.
âMister Crowdon!â Lewis glared at Hugo before turning to look at one of the leaders
he brought along. He said coldly, âYou're in charge of the Food and Drug
Administration. Give me an explanation!â
Among the group of people, the tall and slightly balding middle-aged man was the person in charge of the Food and Drug
Administration, Drake Crowdon. He timidly went forward. His face paled as he sweated profusely.
He had been overseeing the Food and Drug Administration for five years. He had never seen Lewis so mad before, let alone
Lewis reprimanding him in front of his colleagues. His expression darkened.
âMister Christian, give me some time. I-Iâll deal with it right away!â
Drake wiped away the sweat on his forehead. He bowed at Lewis before glaring at Hugo, almost murderously. âIâve seen you
before. You are...one of Ethan Burkeâs staff, yes? What problems did New Chesire Group have? If you canât give me any proof,
ri
kill you.â
