Sean's smiling voice rang behind him.Before leaving, Elton glared at Kennedy and said coldly, "If you threaten Mr. Lennon again, I'll make sure you won't see tonight's moon!""Y-You f*cking...""Hm? I haven't even mentioned you, yet you seem to have a big opinion of me."Curtis tried to speak but was rudely interrupted by Elton.Looking at Elton's hostile gaze, Curtis immediately fell silent.The usually arrogant heir of the Lake family was like a frightened little sheep. He was even too scared to make a sound."Hmph! Good!"Elton snorted coldly and turned around to go back to Daniel's side.Daniel patted his brother on the shoulder and said with a laugh, "Those slaps felt so good. Hahaha!"For a moment, Optimus' members burst into laughter.The unbridled laughter pricked Kennedy and Curtis' hearts.Sean was smiling too.The two parties dared not do anything more. They stayed in a stalemate in front of Lake Residence's gate.Seeing that the sun was already high up in the
"The Lake family is indeed Ocean City's top family. The Carver family, the Davis family, and the Quartz family aren't weak. Even so, they left dejectedly after being reprimanded by Old Master Lake!""Haha, the Lake family is more powerful than these three families. I'm afraid these three families together might not be a match for the Lake family!""I wonder what spell that punk called Sean Lennon put the three patriarchs under. I can't believe they delivered coffins to Old Master Lake on his 50th birthday!""Hmph, only Old Master Lake is magnanimous enough not to quarrel with them. Otherwise, these three families' lives in Ocean City will be miserable!"...Hearing Curtis' words, the crowd had no doubts. In their impression, the Lake family was capable.Although they were curious about why Theodore, Michael, and Jadon came to Lake Residence today to cause trouble, the puzzle was destined to be solved by no one.Curtis, who was originally awkward, gradually moved on from what he
The patriarchs there understood what Sean meant about change.The Lake family rose to power suddenly a few years ago. Their experience and foundation were incomparable to their families.The Lake family was lucky. It was said that they got involved with a big shot from Janestown. That was how they rose from a family at the bottom of Ocean City's social hierarchy and became the top family in Ocean City after several years.Theodore and Michael were already old, so they did not care so much about the struggle for power and profit.However, the Lake family had become increasingly aggressive over the years as their influence grew. Even some of the Lake family's younger members did not take Theodore and Michael seriously.The Lake family was indeed strong. With Janestown's big shot backing them up, Theodore and Michael could only swallow their pride.The Quartz family was in a similar situation. Therefore, after Sean revealed his plan, the three resolutely followed Sean to deliver cof
"Ol' Winters, you're making yourself a stranger by speaking to us like that!"Jadon feigned displeasure.The hotel manager, Ol' Winters, straightened his face and joked, "Haha, I'm just too elated to see Old Master Carver and Old Master Davis!""Haha, take us to a private room."Jadon smiled and patted him on the shoulder.Ol' Winters replied in acknowledgment and led the way.Ol' Winters naturally had some skills to become Greenview Hotel's manager.He figured out a lot from the sequence in which Michael, Theodore, and Jadon got out of the car.Jadon, the head of the Quartz family, was the first to get off, followed by Michael and then Theodore. The young man was the last to get off.Ol' Winters understood what it meant.On the way to the private room, Ol' Winters asked with a smile, "Ol' Quartz, who is this?""Mr. Sean Lennon, the chairman of Optimus Security Services!"Jadon replied with a smile.Hearing this, Ol' Winters was shocked but also had a hint of doubt.He wa
The first dish was already served after more than ten minutes.As more and more dishes were served, the four people also began to toast each other.Michael and Theodore did not drink alcohol due to their poor health, but both recovered remarkably well after Sean's treatment.They were all men who had been to war, and liquor was no stranger."F*ck off!""I'm a platinum member of Greenview Hotel. Am I unqualified to enter Emperor's Suite?"Just as they were toasting each other, an outraged voice came from outside the private room.Sean and the rest frowned slightly with a hint of discontent."Mr. Lake, Emperor's Suite is already occupied. How about we arrange another private room for you?"Mario's voice then rang.Sean raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "I didn't expect to run into the Lake family at dinner here. I wonder which member of the Lake family it is?"If Mario is Mr. Winters' brother, why would he treat a member of the Winters family like that?"Sean was sli
"Alright, let's not make ourselves a laughingstock."Michael patted Jadon's arm and said with a laugh.Jadon also snorted coldly before sitting down.Michael looked at Mr. Lake and asked with a smile, "Oh? What branch of the Lake family are you from?"Disregarding the identity of the people in the Emperor's Suite, Mr. Lake entered the Emperor's Suite and sat down.Then, he said, "I'm the Lake family's second branch. I'm Titus Lake!"Those two losers, Kennedy and Curtis, have shamed the Lake family name today!"No wonder my father always said that old geezer, Kennedy, never would have become the head of the Lake family if he hadn't been the eldest."Titus looked indignant as he spoke. He seemed to be deeply dissatisfied with Kennedy and Curtis.Hearing his speech, Sean and the rest secretly exchanged a look. They saw the glee in each other's eyes.Today was Kennedy's 50th birthday, and the thing that humiliated him was the incident where the four of them delivered the coffins.
Then, Titus added, "Curtis is a fool, but he's quick to react."He lied to the Ocean City dignitaries there, making everyone think that the guys who delivered the coffins were intimidated by that old geezer, Kennedy. He said they left dejectedly after Kennedy scolded them."If we hadn't planted a mole in Kennedy's manor, we would probably never have known about it!"But do they think that Ocean City's dignitaries are fools and that they can keep today's events a secret forever?"Titus grew angrier as he spoke. He grabbed the bottle before him to pour himself another drink, but the bottle was empty."Here, drink all you want. I'll make sure you won't run out of wine!"Sean said, handing him the bottle at his side.He could now tell that Titus was the most idiotic one, even if he kept calling Kennedy and Curtis fools.He spilled the Lake family's secrets without even knowing who he was talking to."Thank you!"Titus took the wine and thanked Sean.Then, he picked up the bottle
Seeing this, the drunk Titus sobered up slightly.He looked at Sean in disbelief, stunned by what he did.After a long time, he said excitedly, "F*ck! Are you a f*cking martial artist?"Do you know martial arts?"Awesome. Are you a martial arts expert?"Titus fired off a barrage of questions.Sean smiled and shook his head, saying, "I only know some basics.""F*ck! You call that basic?"Say no more. Take me as a disciple! Once I know martial arts, I'm going to string Curtis up and beat him!"Titus said suddenly.Michael, Theodore, and Jadon, who were confused as to why Sean would suddenly do that, were finally enlightened.Sean was trying to infiltrate the Lake family, starting with Titus.The three men were deep in thought, and all remained calm."Forget about being my disciple. You can come to Optimus Security Services when you have time, and I'll teach you."Sean said.He did not conceal his identity.After all, he could tell from Titus' speech that Titus had a deep
"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
