Sean went up to Quentin and thanked him.
After all, the fundraising gala worked so well tonight, and it was mainly because Quentin took the lead in donating and encouraging the guests.
The fundraising gala would never have raised this much money without him.
"Mayor Lewis, it's a good thing that you're here tonight, or I couldn't have handled it on my own."
Sean said with a smile.
Quentin nodded and said, "It's okay. It's okay. It's what I'm supposed to do. The slum's governance should have been my problem, but I put you in charge of it now. I should be the one to thank you."
"You're too kind, Mayor Lewis."
The smile on Sean's face widened.
Quentin did not hold him back on the slum's governance and provided great support to Sean, so he deserved Sean's gratitude.
Sean did have a good impression of Quentin.
The mayor was pretty good. He was not brilliant, but at least he was responsible.
"You've got to watch out for the Walker family, the Stewart family, and the Lambert family. The three families were humiliated tonight because of you. And their heirs are still locked up in jail. They're not pushovers and won't take this lying down," Quentin said earnestly.
"Yes, I'll be careful."
Sean nodded again.
Then Quentin added, "Stop by the mayor's residence tomorrow if you have time. We can discuss the slum's governance plan."
Zander's life before joining the army was ordinary. You could even call it poverty, so he felt deep sympathy for the poor people with bad living conditions.
Zander would be pleased that there was hope that the slum issue could be dealt with.
Sean took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and said, "This is only the first step. It's a long way from solving the slum's problem."
"Commander, you're right."
Zander nodded heavily.
Sean added, "Follow me to the slums tomorrow afternoon. We're going to bring big changes!"
The next morning, Sean went to the mayor's residence to discuss the slum's governance plan with Mayor Quentin.
