The Attack V
"Hey, what is wrong with..." He couldn't finish his words when he saw the person's face.
She looks so angelic.
His heart raised.
His mouth was opened, he couldn't close it.
"Sorry" Flows yoyo bowed slightly when she regained her feet.
"It is my fault," Micheal said as he regained his voice.
"You're like a heavenly fairy descending to the mortal world" He said subconsciously.
He couldn't hide his expression.
She was dumbfounded when the person she bumped into kept looking at her with his mouth open.
She smiled at him politely and walked away.
Micheal kept looking at her as she walked away.
His mouth still opened.
Stanley walked out of the corner.
He waved his hand at his face.
"That bump must have rattled you," Stanley said.
He glanced at Micheal. And his eyes were still in flow as she left, His mouth was still open and his expression still dazed.
Stanley felt his mouth twitch.
He used his finger to Clean the corner of his lips.
"Show some restraint, You are drooling"
"Stanley, hurry help me look for something, something I have lost" michael said as he took his hand put it on his heart.
"What have you lost?" Stanley asked with a serious expression.
"When I set my eyes on her for the first time just now, I lost my soul," Micheal replied, his expression still dazed.
Stanley removed his hand from his heart and walked away.
He is utterly crazy
…
Richard sat down in the Drey office.
His leg cross and a glass of wine in his hand
"How does it turn out? As I said we wouldn't lose"
Drey walked towards him.
"There is a defector in battalion no 3 who almost managed to send a telegram to the Military Governor's office. Thankfully, the battalion commander found out in time. Otherwise, there would be unthinkable consequences"
"The los Angeles bund is for those who can conquer it, so, even the lord in heaven was helping us" Richard said
"Well, how dare you take such a big risk? Do you have nothing to fear?" Drey asked as he sat down on the table.
"Do you know how long I've been waiting for this day? I've been preparing for ten whole years" Richard said as he took a bottle of wine and poured it on the two glasses on the table.
He gave one to Drey.
"My men of the Richard army can finally find a place to settle down".
Drey collected the glass of wine and stood up from the table.
Richard took his own, "for tonight victory cheers" They clicked the glass and drank the wine.
"Albert Latino is now attending a ball at the Lincoln mansion to raise money for his five province coalition force. He will never expect that Los Angeles is about to have a new ruler" Drey flattered him.
They dropped the glass.
"Let's go, let's also do the honor" Richard said
They walked out of the office together.

Arci's room
Arci sat down in front of the mirror after she finished dressing up.
She looked at the suitcase contemplating whether to check what was in the fake bottom or not.
She stood up and closed her room door.
She sat down in front of the suitcase and opened it.
She removed the fake bottom and saw a map, she examined it and recognized it.
'It turns out to be a deployment map of Los Angeles'
'What exactly is this man's background?'
Los Angeles is under the jurisdiction of the military Governor office of Albert.
….
In the Lincoln residence Hall.
Lincoln stood in front of the guests and started his speech.
"Under Military Governor Latino's protection. Los Angeles has become a safe place for us to do business at ease. I suggest, we propose a toast to Military Governor Latino on behalf of the Los Angeles business community"
"Okay. Alright" Military Governor Latino toast to the people beside him.
The Military Governor stepped forward after drinking his wine.
Lincoln walked down and stood with the crowd.
"Ladies and Gentlemen. What Mr Lincoln said is not exactly the case, Actually it is me who can't do without the support from the Los Angeles business community. I came today first to show my appreciation for your great kindness to me, second, Mr Lincoln and I have been supporting each other for more than one decade and have a deep bond of friendship, now both our children have come of age. I hope this bond can continue in the younger generation. I'll empty my glass first to show respect"
"Cheers, cheers" The military Governor raised his wine towards the guest and downed his wine.
The guest clapped.
"I hereby declare, the ball tonight started, Next please give the dance floor to the adorable couple"
"Marshal Bremo and Miss Runa"
The music started.
Runa stared at Bremo with expectations, her face flushed as she looked at him shyly.
The guest gave way for them to dance.
"Bravo"
"They look perfect together"
"True, perfect match indeed"
"A pair made for each other"
Runa blushed the most when she heard the people's praises.
Bremo stood there and just stared.
His friends nudge him since all attention is on him.
But he just stood there like he was waiting for something not to be precisely someone.
He suddenly stared at the staircase as Arci walked down the stairs, Bremo looked on like he was entranced by her appearance.
He snapped out of his daze when Arci suddenly stopped walking. He walked towards her step by step, his eyes on her without looking away.
When he got to where Arci was. He stretched his hand inviting her for a dance.
Runa clenched her fist tightly when she saw this.
"You should invite Runa, not me," Arci said as she saw Dawn's livid expression.
"It'll be convenient to talk like this," Bremo replied.
"But I'm not very good at it," Arci said nervously.
"It's Okay. I'll guide you" He replied, his hand still stretched.
Arci sighed and put her hand in his accepting his invitation.
They walked down step by step to the dance floor.
People unconsciously make way for them.
Runa was annoyed and was about to follow them, when her mother dragged her back.
"Mom…"
"Don't throw a tantrum in the presence of the guests," Dawn warned her.
"But I'm obviously the one who should be dancing not that slut"
"Knock it off," Dawn replied.
She could only keep her anger to herself when her mother stopped paying attention to her.
