Chapter 261: A Balance of Kindness and Authority
After a night of rest, Irving, accompanied by Sophia, headed to the hotel they had booked early the next morning.
Although they arrived at the hotel quite early, several patriarchs from families in Starling City had already gathered there. Upon seeing Irving and Sophia, these patriarchs, whose families were not particularly powerful, hurried over to greet them.
"It's an honor to meet you. We truly didn't expect that you would be willing to cooperate with us! We will certainly follow your instructions!"
Each patriarch expressed similar sentiments. For these lesser families, the chance to collaborate with Irving was a dream come true. They had learned from others that Irving was exceptionally generous to anyone willing to partner with him. If they could secure just a couple of rare weapons from him, their family's strength would see a significant boost.
