Chapter 123 VVIP
“Those two aren’t young anymore and they still idolize celebrities.”
Kaze was speechless as he shook his head.
Dan chuckled and said, “Master Lee, it’s normal nowadays. Many housewives and mature women like
young idols, and even nickname. them as sugar babies or whatnot. Those women are as playful as us
men!”
He was the owner of many nightclubs and bars in the underworld, so it was not surprising that he knew
all these.
“Ladies and gentlemen, friends and family, the rebuilding ceremony is about to start, please be seated!”
The emcee’s voice echoed across the hall.
Most of the guests had arrived. They took their seats based on the placement of their name tags.
The Quint family’s seat was arranged at the back, where the seats of smaller companies were.
The Quint family was a second-tier family and they should be sea closer to the main stage but Roger
arranged for them to sit at the
back to humiliate them.
Kaze was the only representative and he was not concerned about where the seat was. He went over
and sat down.

Dan and Gold Tooth had no seats reserved for them, so they followed Kaze to the back and managed
to fill up the seats designated for the Quint family together with the men they brought.
Jessica was one row in front of them.
When Kaze came over, she grinned and mocked him, “Kaze, are you sitting here? Has the Quint family
declined? Oh wait, I almost forgot. You are just the son-in-law who married into the family. Without the
Quint family, you wouldn’t even be sitting here.”
Kaze said coldly, “Stop bragging about where you sit. You better think of what to say when you kneel
before James’ grave.”
Jessica grunted scornfully.
She sneered at him, “If you can make the Hilfinger family disappear, as you said before, then I’ll go.
Too bad it’s not going to happen, not in this life or the next.”
Kaze ignored her.
Soon, almost two thousand seats were all filled, except for the front rows reserved for honorable
guests.
The rebuilding ceremony of the Construction and Material Society gathered most of the influential
figures from the world of business and politics-CEOs of different companies, heads of famous families,
persons in charge of different government departments, and the like.
The connections of the Hilfinger family combined with the Construction and Material Society’s were
terrifying.
Without Kaze as the hindrance, the Hilfinger family would surely
ascend to the ranks of top families in Lilyrose.
Roger was proud and delighted to see the scene.
His seat was at the forefront and he was talking to the people in charge of the Traffic Department, local
government financing platform, and more.
Then, Haiden went up to him with a bright look and whispered into his
ear.
The bright look then shifted onto Roger’s face.
He took the mic and said, “Everyone, I would like to welcome several
VVIPs to the ceremony. Please welcome them with a round of applause!”
Everyone was curious about who the VVIPS were.
Roger gave the mic to Haiden and the latter looked proud and confident as he announced the names of
the VVIPs.
“First, let us welcome the Mayor of Lilyrose City, Mr. Johnson Brooks!”
The other guests grew tumultuous when they heard that the mayor had come to the ceremony.
The Hilfinger family was indeed influential to be able to invite the

Then, Johnson strutted in from the entrance and was welcomed by thunderous applause.
“Next, we have the Deputy Mayor cum the Chief of Police, Mr. Don
Braders!”
Don was Johnson’s right-hand man, known for his righteous iron fist in policing the city. He too
possessed high power in Lilyrose.
His arrival caused quite the commotion as well.
After Don, Haiden announced several more reputable figures from different government departments.
They were all crucial figures in Lilyrose’s political scene.
Then, Haiden grinned as if an even bigger surprise was coming.
“Let us now welcome two VVIPs from the Strategic Department of
Lilyrose!
“The Commander of the Tiger Fangs Militia Group, Brigadier General
Shin Scarlet!
“And the Commander of the Garo Spec Ops Team, Brigadier General Koga Atlas!”
The lively atmosphere in the hall reached the climax following the
announcement.
The thunderous applause and cheers were so loud they could pierce the sky.
