After returning to East World Hotel, Sean and Zander returned to their suite.Sean had already finished reading all 30 medical books, but the books were valuable. Therefore, Sean found a shelf and put all 30 books on it as a collection instead of getting rid of them.By nightfall, Sean asked Derrick and Gabe to come to the hotel.Sean had already said he was giving each of them 20% of the hotel's shares, and now it was time to settle it."Commander, are you really giving us 20% of your shares? The two of us will add up to 40%."Derrick said, shocked.Derrick was not there when the Harris family auctioned off East World Hotel, and he learned about it later from Gabe.When Gabe told him that Sean was giving him 20% of East World Hotel, he thought Gabe was exaggerating. He only chuckled and did not mind.However, he was now in shock."It's not a big deal. Why are you so surprised?"Sean said with a smile."We're talking about a 20% stake."Derrick rubbed his hands in excitemen
Who would want to go after East World Hotel?Since arriving in Midwich, Sean had offended some people, and he had offended the Jensen family the most.Besides the Jensen family, he had also pretty much offended the Sheldon family.Sean had outbid not only the Jensen family but also the Sheldon family at the Harris family's auction. It was just that Sean was not too confrontational with the patriarch of the Sheldon family—Caden.Besides, the Sheldon family deliberately gave a hard time to Benji's Liamson Security Services, but Sean gave Benji 80 million dollars to help Benji's company tide over the difficulties, which also indirectly offended the Sheldon family.Therefore, did the tax collectors come to East World Hotel today to check the taxes because the Jensen family reported them or did the Sheldon family do it?After getting out of the elevator, you would find the hotel lobby.Sean and Cheryl had not yet reached the reception desk when they saw several tax collectors in thei
Once the director of the prosecutors' office, Derrick, spoke, the expression of the young tax collector standing before Sean changed instantly.He was not the only one. The expression of the other tax collectors behind him became horrified too.Derrick and Gabe strode over.When they arrived, Derrick looked at the young tax collector and said with a sneer, "What's the matter? Do you even refuse to greet your old boss now?"The tax collector quickly approached Derrick, bent slightly over, and said with his head down, "Hello, Director Crate... Why are you here, Director Crate?""Do I need to inform you wherever I go?"Derrick said bluntly."No, no, no, that's not what I meant..."The tax collector shook his head, panicked.Derrick looked at Sean and said with a chuckle, "Commander, this tax collector is Benny Craig. He used to work in the prosecutors' office and was transferred to the taxation bureau because there was a shortage of staff. Now he's a captain at the taxation burea
Sean patted Benny on the shoulder and said with a chuckle.It was only now that Benny finally calmed down. He could feel himself sweating, and the clothes under his coat were all wet with sweat.Benny took a deep breath and said quickly, "Since Chief Police Wholeton and Director Crate are here, there must be nothing wrong with your hotel, so we won't check you anymore..."With that said, Benny wanted to leave with his men.Sean stopped him and said, "How could you not check? You're already here. If you don't check, won't outsiders say I intimidated you by using Chief Police Wholeton and Director Crate's power if they know? Check us now, Benny. I'll have someone bring you the accounts and tax payment records. Check them as you please."With that said, Sean ordered Cheryl, "Go. Get our hotel's accounts and tax payment records.""Yes."Cheryl nodded, turned around, and left.Cheryl soon arrived with a heap of accounts and tax payment records."These are our hotel's accounts and t
Benny quickly left with his team.East World Hotel was peaceful again."Alright, Commander. Benny won't cause any more trouble. He doesn't have the guts." Derrick said to Sean with a chuckle.Sean smiled as he nodded.He knew this was going to happen. With Derrick and Gabe as stakeholders in East World Hotel, who else in Midwich could touch East World Hotel?"Commander, we're leaving if there's nothing else."Derrick asked with a smile."Yeah, that's all. Let's have a drink again later," Sean said to Derrick and Gabe.Derrick and Gabe nodded in agreement. After exchanging a few pleasantries, they walked out of East World Hotel's entrance.Cheryl and the rest went back to work.Sean went back to his suite.Zander soon came back from his outing. He had gone to withdraw some money.Sean said they would go to Lyla's nightclub tonight before Derrick and Gabe arrived, so Zander excitedly went to the bank to get cash.Although card payment was common nowadays, cash was sometimes
As soon as Sean and Zander stepped through the nightclub entrance, they immediately felt the bustling atmosphere.Colorful lights kept flashing in the nightclub, at a fast and bewildering beat. Besides that, the nightclub was full of figures wriggling like demons.Sean frowned as he watched.He had thought nightclubs were quieter places where men and women dined and flirted.However, it did not seem to be the case at all.Sean regretted coming here. The bustling atmosphere made him uncomfortable.Zander was a little excited. After all, it was his first time here, and he could not help feeling excited."Commander, it's so chaotic here."Zander said to Sean."Yeah, it's chaotic. It's too chaotic."Sean nodded.The two find a seat in the corner of the nightclub. The lighting was already dim, and Sean and Zander chose a seat in the corner, so it was naturally darker.Without careful observation, no one would even know there was someone here.After sitting down, Sean surveyed e
Zander was instantly embarrassed and excited at the same time.He looked inquisitively at Sean—asking Sean if he wanted to hire a princess.However, a cry of surprise came from a distance before Sean had said anything."Dr. Lennon! You came!"Then a young woman in a miniskirt and a crop top quickly ran toward Sean and Zander.The young woman was Lyla, who went to give trouble to Sean before and had her gonorrhea cured by Sean.Lyla was overjoyed to see Sean. She ran toward Sean and Zander, pushing the bartender away as soon as she reached him."They're the guests I invited. We’re good here. Go about your business."Lyla said happily.The bartender smiled and left.Once Lyla sat down, Sean asked, "Do you work here? Do you work every day?"Lyla replied, "Well, yes, I work here, but not every day. I only come here Monday to Friday. After all, I have a personal life. There's no way I can spend all my time here."Then Lyla said, "Don't look down on me. I'm a college student! I'm
Lyla said with a bitter smile, "It's easy to get into this business, but it's hard to get out. Besides, I've been working here for a few months and have already gotten used to it...""You can't get used to it. Try to get out as soon as possible. You're a college student. Study hard and get a proper job in the future. That's where your future lies."Sean said earnestly.Lyla's expression turned weird. She stared at Sean for a moment before saying, "Why do I suddenly feel like you're my father? Other men don't care about me that much. They only want to get me into bed."Sean was instantly at a loss for words, not knowing what to say.Zander burst into laughter.It was the first time he had ever seen his commander rendered speechless in front of a woman, and she was only a young woman who was only 18 years old.Lyla twisted her slender waist and said a chuckle, "Dr. Lennon, you didn't come to the nightclub to lecture me, did you? I'm sure you're here to have fun. Why don't I spend
