Hanson had expected Sean to be greedy and ask him to help him unconditionally.However, it turned out he was being paranoid.Sean's request was as simple as it could be, and it was easy for him to do without leaving a trail or something for people to use against him. They would not be detected by Blaze's people either.Hanson was even embarrassed by Sean's request."You can ask for more."Hanson said after a moment's hesitation.It made the attendants present look unconvinced.They thought Hanson would never agree to Sean's request. However, Hanson not only agreed, but he also offered to do more.Sean shook his head and said with a smile, "No thanks, Commander Lupin. I'm already satisfied if you could let me return to the army. Besides, I don't want to give you too much trouble. If Blaze finds out you helped me, maybe he'll go after you.""Why would I be afraid of Blaze?"Hanson said domineeringly with a wave of his hand.However, Sean stood by his decision. He did not want
The patriarch of the Collins family, William Collins, was holding a coffee pot in his hand and was smiling as he poured the middle-aged man in front of him a cup of coffee.If it was not Hanson, whom Sean had met earlier during the day, who else would it be?"I've visited Joules Town's Martyrs' Memorial Garden. I met many of my old subordinates and comrades... How time flies! Before I knew it, I've been in the army for more than 20 years."Hanson said with a smile, picking up his coffee cup.William nodded repeatedly. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he said cautiously. "Commander Lupin, now that you're in Joules Town, I'd like to invite you to see someone.""Who is it?"Hanson looked puzzled.William smiled and said, "He's called Sean Lennon and is Colin Langdon's adopted son. He's pretty capable. As soon as he arrived in Joules Town, he founded Lennon Group and toppled Billion Trees Group, a local conglomerate. He eclipses everyone, leaving all affluent families in Joules
Ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of Queen Children's Orphanage.Without waiting for the car to come to a stop, William pushed open the door and got out. However, he only noticed that the orphanage's entrance had been locked when he approached it.It was already past 10 PM, and the night was dark.Queen Children's Orphanage was not an entertainment club, so it closed early, of course."Call them! Hurry and call them!"William ordered."Yes."Ignoring his humiliation, Jacob pressed on Queen Children's Orphanage's doorbell.As he did so, Jacob kept yelling, "Open the door! Mr. Lennon! Madam Randall, I'm Jacob. I need to see you for something!"The doorbell blared in the yard.Many children, already asleep, were awakened by the doorbell ringing.Caitlyn got out of bed in a daze, looked toward the yard door, and muttered angrily.Director May also got out of bed.Even Zander and Sean, camping out at the orphanage today, had woken up.Both of them were already on hig
William asked straight to the point once he saw Sean.Sean nodded and said, "Yes, Commander Lupin and I have met at Martyrs' Memorial Garden today. What's the matter? Do you have an opinion on that?""Of course not... I've only come to you to explain that I was already planning to introduce you to Commander Lupin. But I didn't think you'd coincidentally meet him in Martyrs' Memorial Garden today."Awkwardness came over William's face."Thank you very much, Old Master Collins."Sean said indifferently.Although he thanked him, Sean's expression was indifferent. There was no sense of gratitude.William knew Sean was giving him a hard time, of course. He was also difficult at the time. Besides, he did so much worse than Sean did!Sean did not say anything sarcastic or add to his misfortune, which was already pretty good!"Sean, I know you're bitter about what happened back then, but you should know that I may have a history with your adoptive father, but I'm also the patriarch of
Jacob was thrilled when he heard this.It was because William was old now—already 60 years old, but he was still healthy and energetic.At this rate, he would have no problem living for another ten years.Besides, he had Hubert before him.Therefore, Jacob did not think he could take over the Collins family and be the patriarch. However, he did not expect William to come to a rude awakening and take the initiative to relinquish power because of Sean.It was a huge blessing for him.In that case, Sean was probably his good luck charm!With that in mind, Jacob made up his mind secretly that he must strengthen his bond with Sean and keep in touch with him more often."Yes, Father. I got it. I'll work hard!"Jacob said excitedly.Queen Children's Orphanage.May walked in and asked in confusion, "Sean, what did William come to see you about? Wasn't he rude to you when you visited him earlier? Why did you come over tonight?"May's series of questions left Sean at a loss for a mom
However, Sean and Zander were leaving, and Lennon Group had to be handed over to someone else.Sean intended to hand it to Caitlyn. However, after spending some time with her for a while, Sean found that the girl had no management talent.Besides, her character was unsuitable to run a company.May could run it, but she had the new orphanage to run and would have her hands full if she had to run the entire Lennon Group too.After much hesitation, Sean divided Lennon Group's power and gave it to the heiress of the Lathan family—Chloe and May, allowing the two women to run it together.He knew Chloe would never go after the Lennon Group's property. As the heiress of the Lathan family, she was generous.Not to mention May, who was considered Sean's adoptive mother. Sean's fortune was hers, so there was nothing to worry about.With all this in place, Sean and Zander prepared to leave Joules Town.The weather was just right, and the sky was clear and blue.A silver plane flew over t
The more chaotic the City-State Union was, the more difficult it was for Blaze to meddle.In all likelihood, Blaze must have information on Sean's whereabouts now. However, if Sean reached the City-State Union, Blaze could not go after him even if he wanted to.It was too chaotic. There was no way to touch Sean remotely unless Blaze was there in person.In such a complicated situation, Sean could seek the opportunity of development for himself, recover his power as soon as possible and look for the chance for revenge!It was why Sean said the more chaotic it was, the better for him.It was true that a hero emerged in troubled times.Chloe could not understand it, but it did not bother her. She trusted Sean anyway.The director, May, came over, put her hand on Sean's shoulders, and reminded earnestly, "You must protect yourself when you get there. Don't let anything happen to yourself.""Got it, Director. I'm not a child anymore. I can take care of myself."Sean said in between
However, Sean shook his head. "Sorry, I refuse.""What?"The woman immediately looked shocked.Perhaps she had not expected the man to reject her request, so she was shocked."You're very ungentlemanly."The woman shook her head and said in a disappointed tone."I was never a gentleman."Sean said casually."I'm disappointed in you. Are all men in Dragon Kingdom as ungentlemanly as you?"The woman muttered with a frown."I'm disappointed in you too. Are foreign women as unreasonable as you?"Sean replied with a smile.Several Dragon Kingdom men got up and defended the foreign woman by criticizing Sean."You have no manners. It's just changing seats. Do you have to go that far?""Oh, do you have to be so fussy about such a trivial matter? What would our foreign friends think of Dragon Kingdom?""If I were you, I would have swapped seats. I could have swapped ten seats with all the time spent talking!""He's humiliating Dragon Kingdom!"What Dragon Kingdom's men said inf
