In their eyes, Sean wore simple clothes, no fancy watch on his wrist, and the belt and casual shoes on his feet were unremarkable.Sean did not wear any of men's most important accessories—a watch, belt, and leather shoes.It might be nothing to the others. However, Sean was like a country bumpkin to self-styled fashionistas like Jojo and Kyle."Willow, I'm not criticizing you..."You refused the rich heirs when they pursued you."What's the matter? Is this all you've found?"I'm not satisfied."Jojo judged Sean as if she were Willow’s keeper."It doesn't matter. All that matters is that I'm satisfied."The smile on Willow's face faded when she heard this."Tsk, is this where he brings you to shop for clothes?"I don't want anything from this local brand even if you give it to me for free."Did you see my shoes? I can buy dozens of clothes here with the price of a pair of them."Jojo pointed to her heels, her voice smug."Does Neke sell heels...?"Looking at the logo on
Swoosh!Everyone instantly turned around when the store manager said that.Jojo, Kyle, and even Lisa looked shocked.'Willow is a diamond VIP customer of the store?'And she bought a whole range of bags in all colors some time ago?'Willow was telling the truth and wasn't bluffing?'"Are you sure you didn't mistake her for someone else?"Jojo frowned and asked, looking at the store manager."Miss, there's no mistake. Ms. Quinn is our diamond VIP."The store manager shook her head slightly as she replied politely.All the customers in the store, including Jojo and Kyle, looked stunned.After all, they thought Willow was bluffing and pretending to be someone she was not.However, the truth was suddenly in front of them, so they found it hard to accept for a moment."Well... Well..."The crowd was somewhat speechless.Awkwardness haunted Jojo intensely."Ahem, I didn't expect your classmate to be so wealthy."Kyle smiled awkwardly and came forward to help Jojo smooth thin
"Thank you."Willow was embarrassed to get the bag for free."Don't mention it, Ms. Quinn."It's our pleasure to be of service to you."The store manager smiled gently, her tone full of respect.She then escorted Sean and the rest out the door with a couple of staff members following them.Sean and Willow thought Jojo and Kyle had left.However, they were still waiting outside, muttering."Willow, is the store manager your friend?"Jojo asked with a smile as if she had discovered something."Whatever floats your boat."Willow froze before smiling and shaking her head without explaining much.Jojo thought the store manager was Willow's friend, so she put on a show for them.Willow did not want to explain either. It was no use explaining what Jojo already believed to be true."I knew it! Haha..."Your skin doesn't look too good. That cosmetics store over there looks good. Why don't we check it out?"Jojo smiled and pointed to a store ahead.She insisted on shopping with
Watching from behind, Sean nodded.At least Sean was satisfied with the staff's behavior.He also recognized that the store belonged to Willow's company.He knew the moment he saw the signboard outside.Willow exhaled gently. She saved herself some embarrassment because the store employees did not know her."Willow, what do you think of this set? It’s for skin care and includes a set of cosmetics."Jojo asked as she pulled Willow and pointed at the cosmetics in front of her.The cosmetics here were indeed expensive.Any set would cost several thousand and maybe even tens of thousands of dollars.However, they had no choice but to sell at this price as the cost of these luxury products was already expensive.Besides that, the prices were all standardized. As a partner, Willow could not change the prices arbitrarily."Not bad. I know this store. Everything is authentic."You can buy anything you like."Willow shook her head slightly and did not say much.She would not buy t
'Boss?'Willow owns the place?'Is that a joke?'Jojo could not believe it.However, would the manager of such a large store lie?No one would joke about such a thing!"What did you say?"Willow and Sean are your bosses?"Are you kidding me?"Jojo asked as she pointed at the store manager."Miss, I wouldn’t joke about such a thing..."The store manager shook her head slightly but was polite to Jojo.She saw that Jojo and Kyle were with Sean and thought they were friends."Acting! You guys can act!"Willow's friend helped you put on a show at the store earlier!"Now you're doing the same thing again?"Having lost her patience, Jojo turned around and yelled at Willow."Miss, please watch your language."This is President Quinn."The store manager paused before saying with a slight frown. "Who do you think you are?"Do you think I can't tell you're acting with her?"I'm calling your headquarters. Melody Cosmetics, is it?"You can expect a complaint!"Jojo said, pu
Two years!He had been living out an ignoble existence for two years.Willow had to endure it and was humiliated along with him.Willow had suffered but could only clench her teeth and swallow the aggrievance for more than 700 days and nights.Now that Sean had risen to power, what would he be working so hard for if he continued to swallow his anger when things happened?He could be arrogant or overbearing.From now on, Sean would not tolerate any fools in River City, including the Quinn family.He would not allow Willow to suffer with him anymore.Everyone was instantly stunned.They did not expect Sean to act so quickly.How overbearing."Sean, you loser!"I'll kill you!"Kyle cursed and ran straight at Sean.Sean had slapped him in front of his girlfriend and all those beautiful women.How could Kyle live with that?However, when he rushed to Sean's side, Sean raised his hand again, followed by a ruthless backhanded slap.Slap!It was another slap in the face.The
"Sure, smash it!"Brother Kyle told us to smash it!"The young men were excited as they headed toward the store, brandishing steel pipes."What do we do, Mr. Lennon? Shall we report to the police?"The store manager was a little worried as she hurried to Sean's side and asked."It's fine. Tell the store assistants to come out."Let them smash it."The store manager, Willow, and the rest were stunned when Sean said this.'What's the matter? Is Sean not going to stop them?'He was so strong earlier, yet now he can't even stop them?'However, the boss had spoken. The store manager dared not say anything and called the store assistants to come out."Smash it!"The leader was the first to rush into the store. He then waved his steel pipe and smashed the counter hard.Bang! Crack!The glass counter burst into pieces when it was hit.More than 30 people rushed in and smashed everything in sight.They hit the cash registers, computers, glass counters, and the cosmetics inside.
"Boss, what... what happened to you?"The lackey behind the leader was stunned for a while.The leader dared not lift his head but tilted it slightly and growled."Get on your knees!""Who... Who is he?"The lackeys behind him found it a little absurd.They might be nobodies, but Flint's men had their backs!That meant they were with Flint.Flint was the only one in River City who could get them to do that!"He's Mr. Lennon..."The leader lowered his voice and growled again."Hsss!"The lackey behind him instantly froze at the mention of Mr. Lennon.There were many people in River City with the last name Lennons, but how many Mr. Lennons could there be?Not many Mr. Lennons could bring their leader to his knees.The young men knew instantly that the young man sitting in front of them was Sean!Who was Sean?He was... he was a big deal!Everyone knew Flint had gotten to the top of River City's underworld by stepping over Charles' dead body.Everyone knew Flint offende
"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
