After a tour of Optimus Charity from Millie, Sean left."Is that our big boss, Mr. Lennon? I heard he forked out 15 billion to set up Optimus Charity!""My goodness! I think he's only in his 20s! How can he be so wealthy that he casually spent 15 billion on charity?""Hehe, I don't know why he's so wealthy at such a young age, but I know my future won't be too bad as long as I work for him!"...After Sean left, the first batch of Optimus Charity's employees discussed him quietly.After seeing Sean off, Millie turned to look at the employees and said solemnly, "You heard what Mr. Lennon just said. I'll acquire the list of poor families in Ocean City. I hope you can filter the families that meet our criteria as soon as possible and start helping them after I get the list! The bosses didn't invest 20 billion for us to fool around!"The employees patted their chests and responded that they promised to complete Millie's requirements as quickly as possible.With the list, they could
Kennedy and Curtis and several shareholders of Reason Group were sitting in a conference room in Reason Group."Old Master Lake, our company's stock price is plummeting at a terrifying rate! Retail investors with our company's shares are selling our shares in large quantities, regardless of the price!"One of Reason Group's shareholders spoke grimly.He was not the only one. Everyone in the conference room looked gloomy, realizing someone seemed to be attacking Reason Group.Kennedy also looked grim. He scanned the crowd and said solemnly, "Everyone, I own 40% of Reason Group's shares, and all of you together own 30%! As long as we don't sell our shares, we don't have to panic even if someone is acquiring a lot of Reason Group shares! We can still call the shots. Even if they acquire the rest of the shares, we can kick them off the board of directors and prevent them from participating in Reason Group's development!"Hearing Kennedy's words, the crowd present fell silent, and no o
"We have to buy the stocks of Reason Group's shareholders before we can plan to remove Kennedy from the board of directors!"Only owning 51% of the shares would give them the veto power to kick Kennedy off the board of directors.Kennedy owned 40%, while the other shareholders within Reason Group owned 30%. The remaining shares in the stock market were only 30%.Even if Sean and the others took over all 30%, it would not make a difference.The crowd present became lost in thought when they heard Jadon's remark.Moments later, Titus rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Why don't we just put Reason Group out of business? Why buy this trash? After Reason Group is brought down, let's join forces to create another Reason Group! It'll take a little longer, but it will be worth more than the money we spent!"The eyes of the rest lit up when they heard that.After much discussion, they eventually decided not to acquire Reason Group.It was undoubtedly more appropriate to bankrupt Re
Before Sean and the others arrived at Greenview Hotel, Kennedy had already led a few directors of Reason Group and the heads of several affluent families in Ocean City into the hotel.Reason Group's market value fell by 60 billion in just one afternoon, which was much more than Kennedy could bear.Sixty billion was a lot of money for Kennedy.After all, Reason Group was his main financial source.Kennedy alone owned 40% of the shares. Reason Group's market value was originally 100 billion, so Kennedy now owned 40 billion.Including other businesses, Kennedy's fortune was around 70 to 80 billion.As Reason Group's market value plummeted by 60 billion, Kennedy's assets also fell by nearly 30 billion.To recover Reason Group's losses and bring Reason Group back to its 100 billion market value again, Kennedy also got off his high horse for the first time and invited the heads of several affluent families in Ocean City to discuss.Although Reason Group suffered a huge loss, it was s
When Sean got out of the car, Titus pointed to a Rolls-Royce not far away and solemnly said, "Brother Lennon, that's the old geezer, Kennedy's car!""Hmm?"Sean raised his eyebrows and looked in the direction Titus was pointing.Titus sneered, saying, "Reason Group's market value has plummeted by 60 billion. Kennedy should be panicking! He’s the one probably in Emperor's Suite. Perhaps he's inside asking Ocean City's affluent families to cooperate with him."Sean laughed and nodded.What Titus said was possible.Reason Group's market value plummeted to 60 billion in one afternoon. Even Kennedy could not sit still.As chairman of Reason Group, Kennedy would find a way to turn the tide.As the two chatted, Jadon and the rest arrived and went up to Sean."Dad, look. It's that old geezer, Kennedy's car!" Titus said to his father.Jadon and the rest looked over, and their expressions changed slightly.Kennedy's car was not the only one in the parking lot. Many other affluent fami
"Dad, don't worry! Your son is more capable than you think!" Titus said with a chuckle.Then, regardless of the other's reaction, he left the private room and went straight to the Emperor's Suite.Kennedy and the others who were drinking in the Emperor's Suite paused as the door to the Emperor's Suite was pushed open.Titus poked his head into the room and said with a smile to Kennedy, "Uncle Kennedy, it's you!"After saying that, Titus strode into the Emperor's Suite.He boldly found an empty seat and sat down.He poured himself a glass of wine and said with a smile, "Uncle Kennedy, I didn't think I'd run into you when having dinner at Greenview Hotel. When I called Greenview Hotel earlier, they told me someone had reserved this suite. I saw your car in the parking lot and figured you must be the one to reserve it!"The others looked in confusion at Titus.Ocean City's dignitaries knew the three branches of the Lake family had always been at odds.However, the heir of the Lak
Then, Titus said with disappointment, "Uncle Kennedy, I didn't expect you to treat me like a stranger. After all, my father's your brother, and I'm your nephew! Are you and Brother Curtis just going to blow me off in front of all these people? How am I supposed to show my face in Ocean City if word about this gets out?"Curtis raised his eyebrows and walked right up to Titus.He clasped his hands around Titus' shoulders, leaned into Titus' ear, and whispered, "You'd better get out of Emperor's Suite if you're smart, or don't blame me for not going easy on you!"Hearing Curtis' threat, Titus' expression instantly changed.Titus got up directly, and Curtis got knocked back a few steps."Sure! Alright, Curtis. I considered you my brother, yet you got ahead of yourself! How dare you not go easy on me? Try touching me!"Titus kicked a chair away and faced Curtis.He had spent a lot of time at Optimus Security Services and thus learned a few tricks from Zander and the rest.It was no
Titus glanced sideways at Kennedy, and he knew Kennedy was serious when he saw the anger almost emanating out of Kennedy's eyes.Unable to think much about it, Titus grabbed a chair from the floor and threw it at the four bodyguards."F*ck you, you old geezer! I'm your nephew. Are you going to let these guys kill your nephew?"Titus shouted when the chair flew out of his hands.Kennedy glanced at him without speaking any further.Thump!The chair had just reached the bodyguards, and a bodyguard caught it.Then, the four of them went straight for Titus.There was sweat oozing from Titus' forehead.He knew he would suffer if they caught him.Just as the bodyguards were about to touch Titus, Titus' expression changed slightly before turning around and running toward Kennedy.He grabbed Kennedy by the neck, his eyes slightly red."Uncle Kennedy, you made me do this! I only came here for dinner because I know you're here. Curtis tried to attack me, and you also had your men atta
"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
