"They've worked hard for all their lives and can finally enjoy speace." "Although I'm a bit envious that they can live in such big houses, I know they've earned it." "The community is so lively. It feels like a New Year celebration." "It really is lively, but has anyone else noticed that no one is inviting George and Stephen in?" "Yeah, even Dr. Rodman was invited in, but why not George and Stephen?" "I can understand George not being invited, but isn't Stephen the Grand Marshal's mentee? He's done so much for Riveria before, so he shouldn't be left out like this." Everyone found it strange.

Who was Stephen? He was the young master of the Quinns from Metropolis as well as the Grand Marshal's mentee, the one who brought peace to Riveria three years ago. Sof the villagers might even have been Stephen's subordinates three years ago. Furthermore, Stephen had provided them with such generous compensation. Why were they treating him so coldly? Just then, they recalled what the village chief had said during the awards ceremony. "Unfortunately, you're not him." They were all confused. What did that mean? Stephen was not who? Was Stephen not invited because he was not 'him'? In the community, Stephen and George stood there for a while and also felt awkward.

"Why hasn't anyone invited us in?" +25 BONU Chapter 286 They could already smell the aroma of food drifting from the houses.

These days, they had been busy dealing with Celestial City and running back and forth for the village chief's treatment. They had no tfor a proper meal at all. Now, they could not help but gulp with such tempting smells in the air.

Stephen was hungry and exhausted, so he took the initiative to visit the villagers on the pretense of asking if they were satisfied with their new homes, hoping they would ask him to stay.

He knew that the livestream audience was watching his every move. It would be humiliating if he was not invited.

However, after visiting a dozen homes, no one invited him.

The sky darkened.

At 7.30 p.m., Stephen arrived at the village chief's house and saw the latter slowly walking out with Dr. Rodman by his side.

At first, the village chief needed to be hospitalized, but due to the special nature of the day, he strongly requested to return home. The hospital did not want to release him, but Dr. Rodman assured them that he would stay by the chief's side, so they finally agreed.

When the village chief and Stephen cface-to-face, Stephen clearly felt an awkwardness in the air around them. He had falsely accused the villagers and caused the chief to nearly die. For a moment, he did not know what to say.

Just as the atmosphere bectense, a shout suddenly cfrom the middle of the community.
