Mr. Wells noticed Alex by then. The surprise on his face immediately switched to pleasure as he extended a hand towards Alex.

Earlier on, Gavin had met Alex during the award ceremony in the afternoon.

Had it not been for that award ceremony, he truly wouldn't have thought that the man, who had used his body as a shield against bullets to protect others, was indeed the Chairman of the Four Seas Corporation. In fact, he was the People's Hero.

Four Seas Corporation was Nebula City's biggest taxpayer. With each year's taxes increasing exponentially, he definitely wanted to have Alex on his side. He was never going to allow his company to move to another district.

That was the reason why he had to be courteous to Alex!

Moreover, a man who was willing to sacrifice his own wellbeing for others was surely worthy to be held with the utmost respect.

"That's right. I have never thought that you would be here, Mr. Wells," Alex shook hands with Gavin with a courteous smile on his face.

He was a little surprised to replace out that Gavin actually knew the Hudsons.

It seemed like the Hudsons had pretty good social connections after all.

"Mr. Jefferson, we didn't have a chance to have a drink together earlier this afternoon. Why don't we grab a drink later tonight?" Gavin clasped Alex's hand firmly as he extended his invitation. "Just call me Alex," Alex winked at Gavin with a friendly smile.

Gavin was startled for a second but got the hint very quickly. Alex didn't want to reveal his identity as chairman. Thus, he nodded his head swiftly.

"Come along, Mr. Alex. Let's sit with Mrs. Hudson," Gavin ushered Alex towards the head of the table.

Alex smiled as he followed Gavin who led the way.

Everybody's eyes widened in disbelief; they just couldn't believe what they saw.

Who exactly is this fellow?

Why is Mr. Wells so polite to him?

The expression on Zane's face had become rather ugly.

Zachariah was rather affected too. Just as he thought he could move back to the city, Alex threw yet another curveball at him unexpectedly.

"Mr. Wells, do you know Alex?" Mrs. Hudson asked as she was curious.

Everybody just looked at Gavin.

Gavin was startled before he started laughing, "Looks like you guys didn't watch the live telecast on TV today."

Then, he continued, "A few days ago, there was a bank robbery and Alex was the one who took down the armed robbers and saved everybody. For that, he is hailed as the People's Hero of Nebula City. I can't believe none of you heard of this?"

"Huh, did this really happened?" Mrs. Hudson was astounded as she looked at Alex.

This young man was rather honorable!

With that, Zachariah and the others whipped out their phones hurriedly and started reading the news. After that, their expressions changed significantly.

Wow, is this guy really that awesome? This is rather shocking!

All of a sudden, Zane and the rest had a newfound respect for him now..

They even heard rumors of how that hero used his own body as a shield against bullets! This man was truly dauntless!

What they couldn't believe was that this hero turned out to Alex.

However, Zane thought about it and he felt that this incident couldn't be the only reason for Gavin to have such high respect towards Alex.

This fellow is definitely someone influential.

Who exactly is this guy?

Zane furrowed his brows in concentration when he suddenly recalled how Gavin addressed Alex.

Mr. Jefferson?

Is he a chairman of some organization?
