Roar of the Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 155

Eating alone was boring.

Thankfully, Daniel was here.

More importantly, James did not have money and needed someone to pay the bill.

“No, I wouldn’t dare.” Daniel instantly froze in his tracks. How would he dare have lunch with James?

James scowled at him. “I’m giving you a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to treat me to a meal. You should be honored. No one else would ever have the chance to do so.”

“Fine, then.” Daniel nodded and quickly got off the jeep.

He was not in military uniform but his casual clothes.

James wrapped his arm around Daniel’s shoulder and walked toward the Gourmand.

“By the way, General Highsmith, I have a question.”

Daniel was feeling uncomfortable, having his shoulder grasped by James. “A-ask away, James.”

“What do you think the higher-ups are up to, reorganizing the five military regions and even transferring the Blithe King to Cansington as the commander-in-chief of the five armies?”

Daniel shivered. He hurriedly replied, “I-I wouldn’t dare presume the intentions of the higher-ups.”

James meant it as a casual question. He was not expecting Daniel to be so terrified.

They entered the Gourmand.

Since it was lunchtime, the public hall was fully booked.

However, there were empty tables that were specifically reserved for emergencies.

Upon entering the Gourmand, they were met with Bryan. Someone had informed him of General Highsmith’s arrival.

As Bryan approached them, he noticed James by Daniel’s side and instantly felt a cold shiver down his spine. He walked up to them hurriedly. “J-James, Daniel.”

James gestured as he spoke, “Keep things low. Just arrange a table for me in the public hall…”

James scanned his surroundings and spotted Xara. He pointed to the table right behind her and said, “Over there.”

“Yes.” Bryan nodded.

James waved Bryan off. “Alright, now. Having the owner of this place personally welcome us would only attract unwanted attention. I’m just the son-in-law of the Callahan family. It’d be bad if rumors started to spread.”

Understanding the situation, Bryan took his leave.

However, he arranged for someone else to receive James and Daniel.

James was seated right behind Xara. She had her back to him, so she did not see him.

On the other hand, Francis, who was seated opposite Xara, could only see James’ back. As such, he did not recognize him. However… he did catch a glimpse of Daniel.

“Holy sh*t…”
