"Speak!

"Who am I?"

The deep voice on the other end of the line asked again.

"I... I...

"Mr... Mr. Zook... I didn't know it was you..."

James held the phone in both hands and put it to his ear as he spoke obsequiously, nodding and bowing.

He had no idea that Sean would be able to get in touch with the big shot at Jen-Bond Holdings!

Mr. Zook was not only James's immediate superior but also a major shareholder of Jen-Bond Holdings.

Mr. Zook was responsible for Jen-Bond Holdings' expansion in River City.

"Say no more.

"Not only did you not report the whole thing immediately, but you kept it from me.

"Are you going to keep it a secret if I never asked?"

Mr. Zook's question made James' forehead drip with sweat.

It was not that he did not want to report it, but he was scared!

Jen-Bond Holdings had made a lot of effort to take over River City.

They spent money, manpower, and material resources. They had also used a lot of connections and owed many favors.

    "I see."We'll be in touch later!"James was silent for a few seconds before turning away with his men.His only option now was to get out of River City unscathed.The only way to get out of River City unscathed was to finish the last thing arranged by Sean.James had no choice now.After James and the others had left, Zander reentered the office."Commander, are you letting him go?"Zander asked, looking at Sean with some confusion."Yeah."Sean nodded gently.He would not let the Zimmer family off the hook.However, he had no choice but to let James go."James is with Jen-Bond Holdings."It has been difficult for us to get to this point."To fight further would be against my original intention, and we will end up going against some of Janestown's forces."If Blaze's faction gets involved, I'm afraid our efforts will be in vain."Zander knew what was going on after Sean spoke.He was not going after James because he was with Janestown's Jen-Bond Holdings.Now that J

    It was hard for him to imagine that a young man in his twenties had managed to defeat Jen-Bond Holdings.When they thought they were taking over River City, Sean struck them so hard that they had to surrender."Mr. Zook, shall I look into him?"The assistant thought for a moment and asked in a whisper."Yes."But first, I want you to come with me to meet the big boss."I dare not hide such a big issue."Mr. Zook was troubled as he got up and walked outside.The assistant behind him also hurried to follow....River City.A day passed.Lennon Group had taken over the entire River City business circle.The Summers family and the Larson family also got satisfactory returns.Sean had always been generous and never stingy with people on his side.The reward he gave them was even more than they expected.Monetary profit was secondary.Most importantly, Sean gave them an infinitely bright future.As long as they clung to Sean from now on, the River City government, any other

    There was dead silence in the living room as soon as he spoke.Kent, Willow, and Leah looked at Sean.Even young Candy remained silent, staring at Sean with her big, beautiful eyes.Sean's offer was not only absurd, but he was trying to ruin the Quinn family!80% of the shares!If they gave Sean that, Quinn Corporation would probably have to change its name.Anyone knew without hesitation that the Quinn family would never accept that.Old Madam Quinn and the rest could apologize to Willow for the Quinn family's future.However, he could forget about them handing over 80% of their shares.Even if Old Madam Quinn agreed, Samuel and the rest would refuse.Therefore, Kent thought Sean was trying to make him back out!However, Old Madam Quinn gave him the task.If he backed down, the Quinn family's future would be uncertain.As a descendant of the Quinn family, he did not want to see the Quinn family go down in flames even if Old Madam Quinn would not include him in family func

    Regardless of anything else, Kent understood Sean's feelings for Willow.As Willow's father, Kent genuinely thought Willow had found the right man.A man she could spend the rest of her life with.As a father, he was happy for Willow."Whew!"Thank you. Thank you very much."Kent let out a sigh and suddenly said out of the blue.Sean glanced at Kent with some surprise.However, he soon figured out why Kent said thank you.Still, Sean had to do what needed to be done."Willow can't suffer two years of grievance for nothing."80% of Quinn Corporation's shares as compensation and their apology."Apology and compensation. Nothing less."Sean looked at Kent, still not giving in.He knew Kent could not decide for them, so he let him go back to pass the message."Sean, 80% is a lot."Didn't you only ask 60% from other companies?"Kent was silent for a few seconds, knowing Old Madam Quinn would never agree to give 80% of Quinn Corporation's shares."They aren't the Quinn fami

    These were not tears of grievance nor sadness but genuine happiness, joy, and affections.She saw Sean's concern and attentiveness toward her.She never thought of getting anything for her two years of effort.However, she was touched by Sean's return.It made her feel like she had seen the light at the end.Sean did not let her lose.He achieved everything he promised.Willow did not care about money and power. She only cared about Sean's concern for her."You don't need to thank me, silly girl."If you insist on thanking me, remember that I, Sean Lennon, would not have gotten to where I am now if you hadn't taken care of me back then."Sean gently stroked Willow's hair as he spoke from the bottom of his heart."Okay, I won't say anymore. I won't say anything else..."Willow hugged Sean tightly, feeling relieved....At the same time.Lathan Manor, Joules Town—next to River City."The thing with River City is settled, Sir."In the study, a servant spoke respectfully t

    "Tell Ms. Chloe it's settled."Tell her to eat well and stay home."If she goes against me again, I'll put Sean's company out of business and let him live on the streets in a minute."The middle-aged man looked at the servant and spoke again."Yes!"The servant answered and slowly left."Sean Lennon..."Tsk, so what if he's smart? There's no shortage of brilliant young people in this world."The middle-aged man shook his head slightly. Even if Sean surprised him, he did not take Sean seriously.If Chloe had not asked him, he did not think he would have ever had anything to do with Sean....The next day.The situation in River City was finally settled after one night.At first, many people thought James would not give up and would try again.However, a day and a night went by, and James did nothing.Even Jen-Bond Holdings' River City Branch did not hold any press conferences.No one knew what was on James' mind, not even Jon.However, everyone knew Lennon Group would g

You..."Demi pointed at Willow but did not know what to say."Don't you know who owns the company when you apply for the job?"Sean glanced at Demi, his tone sarcastic.He disliked people like Demi."Hmph! What's so great about it? Isn't she just a lousy president?"That's not even your major, yet you can become a president..."Demi was jealous, his voice full of disdain.She thought even Willow could become the president when she did not major in aesthetics.It could be easier for her to get promoted because she was certified as an aesthetician."Demi, that's enough."There's no bad blood between us."Willow shook her head slightly as she prepared to walk into the building after finishing.However, Demi thought Willow was insulting her."What are you so smug a

    People from operations, human resources, marketing, and research and development departments attended the meeting.After all, today was the first all-staff meeting.Everyone had to attend it.Sean looked around. There were dozens of employees in the company.It did not include the employees recruited later to produce cosmetics and skincare products.After all, the company paid well, so they had no problem recruiting people.Many employees were the elites of other companies. They quickly job-hopped here after hearing about the company's lucrative pay.Willow followed Sean and sat at the table's main seat.Sean and Leah sat on her left and right.He founded the company for Willow and Leah anyway, so Sean had no plans to get too involved.Besides, he believed Willow could do a great job with the company."Is everyone here?"Willow asked the crowd, slowly opening a document in front of her.Everyone hurriedly glanced at each other, checking whether everyone in their department

    "Even if you haven't stepped into the legendary Transcendence Realm yet, you're already capable enough to overpower most martial artists! Mr. Lennon, you've possessed such strength at your age. You'll surely enter that legendary realm one day!" Adam exclaimed.He had practiced diligently day after day for decades, yet he was only a Beginner Great Grandmaster. Even so, he was one of the most talented martial artists among several generations of Greendom Chapel members. However, that talent was as different as night and day compared to Sean.Sean was now only in his 20s, yet he already possessed the strength to rival the supreme priest who had passed away.There were no other people as strong as Sean in the entire Dragon Kingdom."Alright, stop flattering me. I'll have someone transfer 500 million to you later. You can use it to improve Greendom Chapel's current situation. When the time comes, I'll accompany you to meet that man from Melode Cathedral," Sean said with a smile as he sh

    "Mr. Lennon, you also know how strong that old priest is. We Catholics only have the supreme priest who could rival him. Now that the supreme priest has passed away, that old priest has become even more arrogant..." Sean nodded slightly and sighed before expressing his regret. "It's a pity about the supreme priest.""Human life has its limitations. The path of martial arts is long and arduous. Few people in history have been able to reach the legendary Transcendence Realm." Adam sighed as well. He had already reached Great Grandmaster Realm that countless martial artists dreamed of. Even so, there were opponents he could not defeat and problems he could not solve."Mr. Lennon, since you're willing to leave that calligraphy in Greendom Chapel, you must have some history with Greendom Chapel. I wonder if you can tell me," Adam finally said after a moment of silence.Adam was the former chaplain of Greendom Chapel, but he had gone into seclusion to further advance himself after stepp

    A Christian refers to a follower of Jesus Christ who might be a Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, or follower of another branch of the religion. A Catholic was a Christian who followed the Catholic religion transmitted through the succession of Popes, who were leaders of the Catholic church. Thus, All Roman Catholics were Christian, but not all Christians were Roman Catholic. The difference in beliefs had put the two in conflict."Could it be that their conflict has reignited? Didn't a Catholic priest warn those donkeys?" Sean asked with a frown.Adam nodded slightly and sighed before slowly replying, "It's just as you said. After the passing of Tiger Mountain's supreme priest, Christians often gave us Catholics a hard time. Now, not only are chaplains from all over Dragon Kingdom affected, but even Greendom Chapel has gotten into this situation."Most chaplains and churches relied on donations from their followers for their income. Once they lost this source of income, chaplains and

    Meanwhile, a daunting aura rose from the old chaplain.The Brown brothers’ expressions instantly changed, even being forced back three steps by the pressure from the old chaplain before barely stopping.Willow's eyes filled with panic. She felt like she had encountered a mortal enemy and had her life on the line.Sean's gaze focused before he immediately reached out to hold Willow."Cut that intimidating aura out. Who are you trying to scare?" Sean snapped as he looked at the old chaplain.However, the old chaplain's kind demeanor changed. He stared solemnly at Sean and asked, "I'm asking who you are.""Who am I? Is my calligraphy in Greendom Chapel gone?" Sean replied indifferently.The old chaplain froze in place as if struck by lightning."What? The old chaplain is from Greendom Chapel? How is that possible… Greendom Chapel is a nationally renowned holy place. H-How could one of their chaplains be selling counterfeit goods here?" Willow exclaimed. Her hands covered her mouth

    The smile on the old chaplain's face instantly froze. He looked awkwardly at Sean and stammered, "L-Look at my age. How could I engage in deceitful acts? God... I've lived a righteous life. I didn't expect to be so misunderstood in my twilight years..."Seeing the old chaplain's pitiful expression, Willow could not help but feel sorry for him.However, Sean looked disdainfully at the old chaplain before saying with a smile, "Sir, perhaps being an actor suits you better than being a chaplain."The old chaplain's acting skills were impeccable. He might even win a prize if he attended some award ceremony. With his white beard and the slightly worn-out robe that had turned somewhat faded, others might indeed mistake Sean for misunderstanding the old chaplain."Sir, you can't say such things! I've lived an honest life. You can't just tarnish my reputation!" The old chaplain pleaded earnestly, looking at Sean.Ignoring the old chaplain, Sean picked up a vase from the stall before him. W

    Sean glanced at Elton and Bernie beside him and said with a smile. Elton and Bernie scratched their heads awkwardly and beamed. "After we finish browsing Antiques Street, let's head to the new company office together and get acquainted with it. At least we won't end up not knowing where our company is in the future."Daniel and his brothers immediately nodded.Then, the group continued to stroll through Antiques Street. However, Antiques Street had been around for so many years, and each stall was run by shrewd peddlers, who made it increasingly difficult to find hidden treasures.Even with Sean's keen eye, he had not come across a genuine antique after strolling through Antiques Street for so long. All he saw were counterfeit antiques that looked authentic.After another ten minutes or so, Sean suddenly stopped in his tracks.Not far away, an old man with white hair in a black robe opened up a large bag of items and placed the items on the ground. He then took out a small sto

    Willow held Sean's arm, her face filled with happiness.Sean scanned the surroundings of the street stalls with a smile, searching for genuine antiques. The Brown brothers quietly followed Sean. With the Brown brothers standing behind Sean like bodyguards, the street peddlers who had heard about suckers in Antiques Street were now hesitant to make any sudden moves."Mr. Lennon, I heard this place is full of scammers. You wouldn't want to ruin your reputation here," Daniel reminded with a chuckle.Sean glanced at him and replied flatly, "Come on. Would my reputation be ruined in such a small place? Check out the two little trinkets Willow bought for only 500 dollars. If we auction them off, I can make at least 20 million dollars!"Daniel and his brothers paused and turned to look at the hairpin and the ring Willow was holding.Seeing the three men interested in the items, Willow stopped and handed the hairpin and ring to Daniel. "Feel free to take a look."Since they were Sean's

    It was normal to pay others for their service. Sean only gave them 10 thousand dollars when he had made 20 million dollars a while ago. Ten thousand was just a drop in the bucket. Daniel and his brothers swiftly made their way through Antiques Street, soon spotting Sean and Willow. Sensing someone approaching, Sean immediately turned around to look. Sean smiled when he saw the Brown brothers."Mr. Lennon! Mrs. Lennon!" Daniel and his brothers greeted respectfully when they arrived before Sean and Willow. Willow felt slightly embarrassed at being called "Mrs. Lennon" and only nodded slightly before looking elsewhere. Sean nodded with a smile. Fortunately, this part of Antiques Street was relatively isolated with few people around. Otherwise, Daniel and his brothers' sudden appearance would attract attention."Mr. Lennon, you spotted us from so far away. Your abilities are admirable!" Daniel lamented.Sean shook his head with a smile and said flatly, "Martial arts is all a

    "Don't be offended. Mr. Lennon also instructed us to watch over these three guys here," Bobby answered with a smile, not mentioning that they were hired earlier to mess with Sean for 3 thousand dollars.The four men standing before them were burly and not easy to mess with. Bobby would not foolishly tell them he had tried to trouble Sean."Is that so? How can we be sure you're not associated with these two?" Daniel asked hostilely as he raised his eyebrows skeptically.Bobby and his henchmen's expressions immediately changed, fear evident in their eyes. Bobby quickly pulled out his phone, showed the transaction record of Sean's payment, and said, "Look, look! This is the record of the money Mr. Lennon just wired me!"Zander glanced at it, confirming the identities of the three men in front of him as the same ones Sean had mentioned on the phone."I'll take these two back to the company. You three can find Mr. Lennon and help him out with any troubles," Zander said solemnly.Dan
