When the unnamed 'feast' is over, on one stage, formally dressed musicians begin to play, and waiters with snacks and wine glasses begin to walk through the crowd. The real 'social' begins.

Blake smiled against his will, standing beside his parents, introducing himself, being praised, passively accepting the job offer that floated in front of him like snowflakes, but he couldn't say anything he actually promised.

The direction of his future choices is not in his control. Well, it's not fair to say that, Stone's elders aren't going to give any freedom to future heirs, just to weed out some of the guys who are obviously a waste of time.

Zach stood beside Blake, unobtrusive or obtrusive. is obviously different from other attendants and bodyguards, Zach smiles more naturally than Blake throughout the whole process, and occasionally curious characters will bring this 'attendant' who is impeccable in appearance and posture in conversation.

"Oh. Blake would reply, "This is a friend of Mrs. Quinn, the owner of the Grande Funeral Home, and we became friends after a chance encounter. ”

Zach would introduce himself formally with a smile and then hand over Grande's business card, "Mr. Hopefully you'll never need it." ”

People would smile at the good-natured joke and think about something else. For example, is Barton the sole owner of the traditional funeral industry? Does this mean that Stone's stance is more traditional?......

Then these people will add a layer of enthusiasm to their smiles, go to a certain circle, and start the next round of communication.

Speaking of that circle, this is the only place where the elders of the Stone family have chosen for Blake.

I saw that the people in the center of the circle dispersed the crowd and walked this way. When those who have no political future at all. The guys who are not taken seriously by Stone, a family of politicians, are also led away by the elders who have always been by Blake's side, and it is time for the real candidates for the mayoral race to appear.

Anthony's gaze stayed on Zach for only a moment before looking away. Zach clearly saw the corner of Anthony's mouth twitch.

Anyone who is smart will know that the protagonist of this dinner party is Blake. To win Blake is to win Stone. The guys who chased the departing Stone elders. It's a waste of time. Their actions to please Stone's current owner are not stupid, but they really misplaced.

In the world of politics, everyone except the politicians themselves are marionettes. Is Blake a puppet? No, he's a politician himself. His family will give him direction and give him goals, but will not control him like a puppet and order him to cater to the family's decisions. Because he's Blake Stone. He will become the one who controls others.

No, it's not a contradiction, Blake helps people become mayors today, they can help people become governors tomorrow, and they can help people become the people at the top of the federation the day after tomorrow. The only thing Stone did was give Blake the goal, shaved off the time-wasting detours, and pressed the start button for the process.

If the Stone family has decided which side they want to support in future races. There would have been no dinner party with so many people, and there would have been no deliberate Blake aside. Officially introduced to everyone. The start button has been pressed, and the only thing the Stone family has decided is to start cultivating their own heir.

"I appreciate what you did earlier on Liszt Street. The mayor smiled and raised his glass to Blake, and said casually in a flat tone, "But." You describe the normal life of the citizens of Barton as hell, which makes me a little, well, offended. ”

Blake is smart. He smiled embarrassedly, and before he could apologize, another person with twitching lips joined in the really important conversation.

Again, her gaze only stayed on Zach's face for a moment, "Offended." You should be offended. Do you think that the life of the citizens of Barton is heaven now, the current mayor, sir. ”

Meet Caesar's mother, Anthony's ex-wife, Lady Duncan.

Yes, ma'am. Aethra Duncan, ma'am, reached out and grabbed a slightly drunk, middle-aged man.

But the real characters don't even introduce themselves, which is really convenient.

The short-haired woman had a smile on her face immediately after stimulating Anthony, and the slightly raised corners of her mouth pushed out full cheeks, and the faint blush and safe countenance did not in any way match the sarcasm she had just made.

"My dear. With the tone of a little woman, Aethra blamed her husband, "You drank too much, why don't you go and see Caesar, and don't let him do anything inappropriate." As if to explain, and to create a false sense of harmony, Aethra looked at Blake and said apologetically, "Neither father nor son is used to this kind of occasion. ”

"Hmph. Anthony glanced at the middle-aged man who had left honestly, pulled the corners of his mouth, and laughed out loud, mockingly, "It's really yesterday." How many years has it been? Aethera, you don't even change a word of your line. ”

Zach sighed for poor Blake.

After the start button was pressed, the first frustration he encountered was to choose one of these two men and women to become the next mayor!

Zach knew that this was the real hell.

Regardless of what the three of them think, Zack's selfishness has already begun to emerge. This is natural, since he has accepted the commission to be Blake's sidekick, then I am sorry not to let Blake choose Anthony! Is it really like joking with Crowley, let Grande give away a coffin for free to support Anthony's career?!

"Mayor!" Zach spoke for the first time, his tone was one of surprise, and he stood beside Blake, "It's an honor to meet you here. Zach had an embarrassed expression and looked at Blake with a hint of nervousness, "It's already an honor to be able to participate in such a dinner." ”

"Oh. Ignoring Anthony's sudden twitch of his eyes, he showed a thoughtful expression, "I remember you, Grande, right." You're Zachary Grande. ”

"It's me!" Zach said rejoicing at the mayor's ability to remember his name.

"Yes. The mayor kept his posture, "How are you Grande lately?"

"Oh!" Zach smiled. "Good. I am very grateful to the Mayor for being able to preserve the cemetery of Grande. As if to add, Zach glanced at Blake embarrassedly, "If it weren't for the only traditional funeral industry in Barton City, I wouldn't know Quinn and Stone, these people who have always looked up to all Barton people." ”

This is Zach using his own method, reminding Blake. It was Anthony's policies that brought these people on the West End together with Grande. Please take this into account when you choose!

Anthony gave Zack a quick glance, nodded quietly, and patted the 'funeral home owner' on the shoulder encouragingly.

But things can never be so simple.

"Are you Zach?" Acera looked at Zach with the eyes that only women would use, and that look conveyed so much information. Zach had a bad premonition.

"Louise kept talking about you during dinner. We're all curious about her perfect boyfriend. ”

Louise, uh, where's Louise?

Zach's gaze quickly swept across the hall and he found it.

Louise, who had been pulled away by Susan, who God knows why she was here, was looking at this side as soon as she entered!

'Susan is Ethra's man. ’

Zack's stop at Aethra's smiling face, the woman. Sure enough, it hasn't changed, it's the same as before. Play dirty.

Zack's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked with surprise, "This is so embarrassing." But, how did you know Louise? Was it her former friend?" Again, as if to explain, Zach looked at Blake. Embarrassed to say, "Louise, my girlfriend, she used to work in a more gray ......"

Zach didn't finish and smiled. "But it used to be, and now she is my woman, and I will protect her from being entangled in the life she used to be. ”

As if remembering something, Zach looked at Ethra again, "Sorry, ma'am, I don't know you, are you a former friend of Louise?"

The delicate makeup freezes in an instant.

Anthony stood between Zach and Ethella, glaring at the owner of the Grande House sternly, "How can you ask such a question to a lady! What a gray profession!! This is my ex-wife, Lady Ethella Duncan! Now a mother of a child, a man's wife! You should show respect! instead of saying what you used to do!"

Let's ignore Anthony's words and stab Aethra a few times and focus on the vampire show.

Zach looked apologetic, "I'm sorry, Mr. Mayor......!

Zach turned apologetically to Blake again, "I'm sorry, I don't think it's appropriate for me to continue interrupting your conversation, I'll go see my Louise." ”

Blake opened his mouth, he didn't expect such a scene, and out of the corner of his eye, he already saw his family noticing the slight gesture in his eyes, and nodded.

Zach quickly walked around the three of them, and in order to resolve the embarrassment, he casually took the wine glass from the hand of a waiter, gestured apologetically to this side, and then walked towards Louise, who was already waiting on the side.

"Zach!" Louise lowered her voice, "I don't know. She explained, "I didn't know Susan was working for Athera until the dinner started and I sat down......

Zach smiled helplessly and stopped Louise from explaining anxiously, "I don't blame you. The vampire looked Louise in the eye, "I'm the one who needs to apologize." ”

Louise had a little confusion in her eyes and waited for Zach to continue.

"I'm sorry I used your former profession to attack Aethra. "Zach is sincerely apologizing. Louise is Zach's woman, not some gray professional.

Louise was stunned, and then smiled as if relieved, "You don't have to apologize. ”

The two of them looked at the three people who didn't interrupt and really started to talk around.

Zach frowned. Vampires have never liked the woman Ethella, and it has nothing to do with marrying their only human friend, it's just plain annoying. But it's a pity that this woman doesn't know how she knows about Grande's connection with the West End, and she actually wants to use Louis to win over Grande.

It doesn't need to be explained what kind of character Susan is, and no one knows what Athera has done other than this. Zach began to worry about his friend, Anthony.
