Jeffred bowed his head and uttered, "Yes… You are majestic and imposing, so it's difficult to not realize..."
"Okay. Enough with the flattery." Kingsley's eyes turned cold as he warned, "My identity must not be exposed, so you'd better keep your mouth shut!"
"I-I understand..." Jeffred stuttered and trembled as Kingsley stared at him. "So… Mr. Nicholson, will you agree to Stanley's invitation..."
He then gulped and pleaded, "Currently, in the whole of Cleapolis, whether it be large or small influential families, they are willing to do anything to build a relationship with Kean Corporation. It is estimated that at least a few hundred people will be present at the dinner banquet tomorrow. If you don't attend the event, Stanley will never let me go..."
Kingsley frowned slightly and muttered in a low voice, "Stanley Kean, Kean Corporation, Andrew Kean..."
After a while, he nodded. "If that's the case, I suppose I will attend the dinner banquet. But, I can't reveal my identity."
As the saying went, If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.
Andrew was not only a student of Boris Oakley but also the future son-in-law of Elijah and Ysabel.
Kingsley knew that no matter from which aspect, he would have to confront Andrew sooner or later.
Therefore, it was beneficial for him to meet the young master in advance.
On the contrary, Jeffred had a bitter look on his face as he uttered, "If you don't reveal your identity, they won't know that Ares, the God of War, has come... President Kean will not accept this as a satisfactory explanation..."
"How about this? I will send someone from the military to the banquet to prove that Ares, the God of War, is present. That'll help you explain to President Kean." Kingsley added, "There are hundreds of people in the military. I'm sure they won't verify their identities one by one."
"Sure. I'll do as you say..."
Jeffred was also aware that this was the best available solution, so he repeatedly bowed his head and thanked Kingsley, "Thank you, Mr. Nicholson, for your grace. I'll inform Stanley right away that Ares, the God of War, has promised to attend the banquet..." Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Jeffred was relieved, but Stanley was frustrated to the point that he was about to explode!
He had originally planned to book a private room at Ramada Hotel to flatter Ares, the God of War, alone.
But never did he expect Jeffred to betray him!
Within an hour or two, the calls he received were endless!
There were even some who came to visit directly and requested to attend tomorrow's banquet!
Among these people, there were his longtime friends, business partners, and leaders from the city hall...
There were even strangers with unknown names and some he had only exchanged business cards with!
Under the coercion and inducement of soliciting emotions and interests, Stanley could only change his mind and change the venue of the banquet to Marley Hotel.
After all, even Kean Corporation could not afford the expenses of hundreds of people in Ramada Hotel.
After Kingsley left Jeffred's office, he called General Lev Ignatov of Solaris Military District.
"Hey, Lev, can you randomly dispatch an officer above major ranking from Cleapolis Military District? Make him show up at Kean Corporation's banquet in Marley Hotel tomorrow and announce to everyone that Ares, the God of War, has arrived at the banquet."
"Got it, Ares!" Lev replied. "I'll make arrangements right away!"
After hanging up the phone, Lev intended to check which battalion commander or regiment commander was free tomorrow when he heard a crisp voice calling out to him, "General Ignatov, were you calling Ares, the God of War, just now?!"
Lev followed the voice and saw a girl in a black leather coat holding a Serpent Whip in her hand sticking her head in and grinning.
"Where is Ares, the God of War? I want to see him too!"
That girl was the young lady of the Tanner Family, Paige Tanner!
When Lev saw her, he instantly felt an ache creeping up his head.
Paige was a proud student of General Tobias from Seavale Military District.
He could not even scold her, let alone lay a finger on her!
Although the Four Great Celestial Saints and the Eight Great Undernal Demons were all generals of the twelve military districts in Qustia, the status of Celestial Saints was slightly higher than that of the Undernal Demons.
Therefore, Lev could not throw Tobias' pride away, so he could only put up with Paige following him around every day to inquire about Ares, the God of War.
"General Ignatov, I beg you, please let me see Ares, the God of War!"
Paige blinked her big and clear eyes as she clasped her hands together and begged, "I just want to see my Prince Charming. Is it so difficult for you to grant me that wish... Pretty please?"
Lev sighed and pretended to be in a difficult position. "Fine. I will promise you this time because of your sincerity!"
"Really?!" Paige's eyes brightened. "Will I finally get to meet Ares, the God of War?!"
