Watching Zander's figure fade away, Sean raised his wrist and checked his watch.It was getting late, and May and Caitlyn should be ready too. How could they not have called him or even sent a message?Sean found it a little strange but did not think much of it. After all, he had guests to greet at the project building ceremony.Twenty minutes later. Queen Children's Orphanage's entrance.Zander had just pulled up and got out of the car when he saw the gates wide open and quiet.Zander instantly had a bad feeling when he saw this.He rushed in, but May and Caitlyn were nowhere to be found. Most importantly, he could not get through to them.'Oh, no. This is bad!'Zander thought to himself, breaking out in a cold sweat.Not daring to delay, Zander immediately called Sean."Commander!"As soon as the call got through, Zander impatiently said, "Oh, no. Ms. Green and Madam Randall are missing."What?"At the project-building ceremony, Sean's expression changed instantly. His h
Sean answered it without hesitation.Then an unexpected woman's voice came from the phone."It's been a while, Sean!"Sean's brows furrowed together, his face suddenly grim.Who else could this woman be but Jimmy's daughter, Jane?"It was you..."Sean's voice was deep with a hint of murder in it.Jane sneered before saying, "You've heard about May and Caitlyn's disappearance by now, haven't you?""Did you kidnap them?"Sean asked straight to the point.Now that Caitlyn and May's whereabouts were unknown, he was not in the mood to waste his time beating around the bush with Jane.Besides, his way of solving things was to solve things quickly!"I did. May and Caitlyn are with me... I'll be kind and let you hear their voices."Jane said with a sneer.There was a noise from the phone, and Caitlyn's voice came through the phone after two seconds!"Brother Sean, is that you? Run. This mad woman is after you. She's got a lot of helpers!"Before Caitlyn could finish speaking, M
"I'll give you only three days. If I don't see my father after that, you'll never see Caitlyn and May alive again!"With that said, Jane hung up.Clutching the phone, Sean felt like a fire was burning in his chest.The malice exuding from his body was so intense. Several guests wanted to say hello and greet him but were afraid to get close to Sean.It was quite a while before Sean remembered that Zander was still on the line."Zander, come back. I already know where Caitlyn and Aunt May are."Sean said to Zander on the other end of the line.Zander immediately asked, "Commander, where are they now?"They were kidnapped by Jane, and Jane threatened to kill them if I don't release her father."As soon as Sean finished speaking, Zander yelled into the phone."The f*cking whore!"Zander was a soldier, not a scholar, so swearing was not a big deal.However, Zander's temper was the most stable amongst Sean's staff, but he could not stop swearing. You could tell how angry he was.
Caitlyn wanted to convince Jane.However, as soon as she finished speaking, Jane strode over and slapped her.Slap!A loud slap rang in the small room, making the room even more ominous.Caitlyn snorted dully as she was slapped, and blood ran from the corners of her mouth. Her large bright eyes filled with tears, but she tried hard not to cry. Instead, she glared stubbornly at the mad woman in front of her."What's the matter? Did I hit a nerve? Think about it. In this day and age, how is it possible to break your father out of prison like in ancient times? I advise you to let Aunt May and me go. At least we won't press charges for kidnapping us!"No sooner had Caitlyn finished speaking than she was slapped again.Besides that, the slap was harder than the previous one. Half of her face was swollen, and she blacked out."Stop it, Caitlyn. She's gone mad. She won't listen to anything you say!"May's heart ached at what she saw, so she hurriedly stopped her.Jane sneered before
Jane asked on the other end of the line."That's right."Sean immediately replied.Jane's voice came through the phone again, and it sounded dumbfounded."Let me hear my father's voice."Jane demanded icily.Sean was not surprised to hear that because he had already guessed Jane would make a similar request.Though the woman was crazy, she was smart.Of all the women Sean had ever met, Jane was at the top of the list when it came to intelligence alone!"Okay, wait and see."Sean waved his hand, and Zander immediately brought over a middle-aged man with handcuffs and removed the black cloth from his head.The middle-aged man was Jimmy, who was arrested and jailed earlier!Sean used Henry's connections to get Jimmy out of prison, and it was time for him to make an appearance."Here. Talk to your daughter."Sean put the phone in front of Jimmy and put him on speaker.Jimmy had already learned the whole story from Zander. He also knew his daughter Jane was the only one who c
Even so, Sean did not hesitate.As a nine-star commander, Sean had been on the battlefield for years and had seen all sorts of spectacles.Sean, who was unarmed, remained behind alone to help the troops retreat once, and he had no weapons.He would have died.Sean did not think he would survive. He was determined to die to cover his comrades' retreat!He only survived when support arrived in time.He had experienced near-death situations at least ten times, and such a minor incident did not bother him."Come on. Let's go in. Your daughter is waiting for you inside!"A sneer appeared on Sean's face, and the malice in him gradually intensified.Hearing Sean's words, Jimmy, with a black hood over his head, said excitedly, "Quick! Hurry and get me inside! Sean, Mr. Lennon, I... I'm sorry. I shouldn't have gone against you. As long as you let my daughter and me go, I will never go against you again! We'll walk around you if we ever see you!" "We'll talk about it later."Sean did
She had a strong urge to cut Sean to pieces!However, anger did not make her lose her mind.As much as she would like to give the order to shoot Sean to death, it was unclear whether the man with the black hood over his head was her father.After all, even though she had heard her father's voice on the phone earlier, who knew if the man Sean brought with him after the call was her father? Or maybe he had another man pretending to be her father.Therefore, she would ask Sean to remove the black hood from her father's head once they were within a certain distance.Only by confirming her father's identity and ensuring his safety could she kill Sean and the hostages!However, just as Sean and Jimmy were about to get within 100 meters range of the crossbow, Sean suddenly stopped.He looked up at the abandoned textile factory around him and shouted, "Jane, I've brought your father, Jimmy. Where are you?"Sean shouted so loudly that everyone in the textile factory could hear him.May
Jane trembled with fear even if she was bold."Damn it... How is Sean so careful?"Jane, who was behind the window, swore angrily. Then she straightened up and shouted to Sean in the yard, "Sean, I will kill your two women if you hurt my father. Think carefully!""Then stick with our deal. Enough scheming!"Sean exclaimed.Jane hesitated for a moment before shouting again, "Sean, take the hood off his head. How else will I know that it's my father, Jimmy, who you have brought with you?"Jimmy and Sean heard Jane's voice.Before Sean could say anything, Jimmy shouted in a crying voice, "Jane, I'm your father! I'm your father, Jimmy! Hurry and save me! This guy will kill me if you don't save me!"Jane was frustrated by Jimmy's cries but did not rush to speak because she had not yet confirmed the man's identity.Sean did not hesitate. He immediately grabbed Jimmy's hood and yanked it down.Once the hood was removed, Jimmy's face instantly appeared before everyone.Jane felt sad
"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
