Soon, the convoy of vehicles arrived at the State Guesthouse.
A large crowd had gathered there, and everyone had admirable backgrounds. After all, only influential people from all walks of life had the right to attend this welcoming banquet.
All five of the Reclusive Families had sent representatives to offer their congratulations to Cayden.
Except for the Norris family, the remaining four families all sent a butler bringing lavish gifts to show their sincerity without commanding too much attention.
Due to their esteemed reputation, it would be a little over the top and bring Cayden unnecessary trouble if all the heads of the families were to appear and celebrate his return.
After all, the President and the Chief Military Governor were also present at the event. Although Cayden was the honored guest, it was not a good thing to hog the limelight as it would only bring trouble to them.
The heads of the Five Reclusive Families would not make such an amateurish mistake, so they sent representatives to congratulate him.
The representative sent by the Norris family to congratulate Cayden was a member of the younger generation, Hubert Norris.
Following Layden s appearance, the guests immediately cheered excitedly as Hubert and the others quickly stepped forward to welcome his return.
Countless people gathered around him, and at that moment, his popularity seemed to have greatly surpassed the President and the Chief Military Governor.
The banquet started not long after.
Garrett downed a few glasses and said a speech before leaving after a while. After all, someone of his status did not linger in any banquets or events.
After the President had left, the Chief Military Governor also followed suit with the excuse that he had to attend to some important tasks.
However, upon leaving, Nathan took off his Leviathan mask and phoenix military coat. He then changed into an ordinary suit and appeared at the banquet again using his own identity, accompanied by Colin.
The reason for doing that was because he had grown suspicious of Cayden.
