Benson Smith was about to protest against it when Nathan Cross suddenly spoke up.
"That's enough!"
Everyone turned to look at him in shock.
"What did you say?" Sebastian Smith asked as he was annoyed.
"You're taking the moral high ground. That's overstepping the boundaries," Nathan Cross said calmly.
Sebastian Smith glared at him. "Young man, if you're going to speak to me, at least do it with some respect."
Nathan Cross kept his composure. "I should have but I couldn't."
Sebastian Smith slammed one hand onto the table and pointed his finger at Nathan Cross' nose. "You reckless bastard!
Where's your workplace?
Samuel Smith and company began to jeer at Nathan Cross.
"Uncle, this useless thing isn't even employed. He's just feeling cocky after he got some money from Penny Smith's construction project,” Samuel Smith said.
"Cocky?" Sebastian Smith huffed. "I can deflate them with just one phone call!"
Samuel Smith and his party perked up in excitement as Penny Smith and her family began to panic.
Although they didn't know what Sebastian Smith's designation was at the Grand Council, they figured that it wasn't a place for ordinary people.
