"Commander, you..."
Jeffrey looked at Sean and tried to speak.
However, Sean held out his hand and stopped Jeffrey, so Jeffrey could only remain silent.
"Are these enough?"
Sean asked indifferently, pointing to the money on the table.
"Oh, you should have told me in the beginning!
"They're enough. They're enough. I'll prepare the food for you."
Tanya's expression changed faster than she could flip a switch.
She had always had the impression that soldiers like Jeffrey were poor.
However, someone wealthy came here today.
Fifty thousand dollars might be nothing to a lot of people.
However, fifty thousand dollars was a huge sum for a place like theirs where living costs and average income were low.
It was enough to feed a family for two years.
Tanya stepped forward and reached for the money, but Jeffrey stopped her.
"What are you doing?"
Tanya immediately frowned and snapped at Jeffrey.
"I... I can't charge my friends!"
Jeffrey blushed but said through gritted teeth.
"If we don't charge them, how am I gonna cook for them?
"Do you think the ingredients rain from the sky?
"Go away!"
Tanya pushed Jeffrey's hand away, collected the money, and rushed straight into the kitchen at the back.
"Wait here. I'll serve you the food soon."
Tanya's attitude changed completely after receiving the money.
The sound of vegetables being chopped came from the kitchen after that.
Sean paid no attention to Tanya and only looked at Jeffrey.
"I'm sorry you have to see that, Commander..."
Jeffrey's mouth was full of bitterness.
"I'm quite curious.
"What happened to make you this way?"
Sean asked quietly, looking at Jeffrey.
Anyone chosen among one hundred thousand personal guards was capable of fighting with unmatched valor.
They were all hot-blooded and tough guys.
However, Sean and Zander thought Jeffrey behaved like a wuss right now.
"Commander, Brother Zander, Tanya wasn't this way before.
"We grew up together, and she has waited for me for years.
"It's just that I'm disabled. I can't do much or earn a living.
"She has to do everything herself, and she got irritated over time."
Jeffrey shook his head slightly before defending Tanya.
