"I... it was no trouble..."I just want us to get along as a family."Willow answered in a whisper as she looked down slightly."I don't want to do anything to the Quinn family, but everything has to be done in moderation."If they go too far, don't blame me, Willow."Sean laced his fingers and put them on his knee as he spoke bluntly.Willow looked down in silence for a few seconds before nodding gently.She found that Sean was getting increasingly confusing, so sometimes she had no idea if Sean was talking nonsense or if he was indeed capable of doing it.A bustling sound came from the kitchen.Fion was having a good time, singing to herself as she washed the vegetables.Occasionally, she would banter with Kent.It was the kind of life common in other families but rare in Willow's family.Therefore, Willow giggled now and then as she sat on the couch.Her giggle exuded a sense of satisfaction—a pitiful satisfaction.Sean saw this and could not help sighing.His convers
As everyone sat down, Willow helped everyone with the pasta.She was truly satisfied with the domestic atmosphere.Willow sat down in a chair after she completed everything.However, her cell phone suddenly rang before she could take a bite."Hmm? What is Assistant Wayne doing calling me today?"Willow was a little confused. It was the weekend, and only a few employees were on duty.'Is there something wrong?'Puzzled, Willow answered the call."What?"Willow had just said less than two sentences when she suddenly raised her voice and got up."Debt collection? What debt?"Willow's eyebrows furrowed as she subconsciously looked at Sean and asked into the phone.Fion and Kent, who were in a good mood, could not help feeling nervous when they heard the words "debt collection"."Okay... got it."I'll be right there."Willow slowly put the phone down, looking a little dumbfounded."Willow, what happened? What debt collection? Is the company in debt?"Fion frowned and asked
Willow stared blankly at the agreement before her, her head spinning.'Loan agreement...'She could not remember when she had ever borrowed money.Even when the company ran out of money last time, Quill had brought them three million dollars.However, Sean then paid back the money!Why was there a loan agreement now?Several executives were also standing outside the meeting room.It was already almost evening when the middle-aged men arrived.Some of the employees who had been on duty were preparing to get off work and go home.However, these middle-aged people entered the company imposingly when they were packing up.They also asked for the person in charge, so they called Willow to come over."Ms. Quinn?"One of the middle-aged men frowned slightly when he saw that Willow was in a daze.Willow woke up from her stunned state, but she still did not take the agreement."Who are you?"Willow asked with a frown as she looked at the middle-aged men."Far Ocean Loan Company.
"Hehe... Ms. Quinn, we're all adults."So enough of this childish talk. What loan company doesn't rip people off?"Don't run a company if you're kindhearted. Go home and run a farm."Ms. Quinn, could you guarantee that the Quinn family haven't done anything to rip people off?"The middle-aged man was so blunt. "Besides, we at Far Ocean Loan Company didn't force others to come to us for a loan."Even if we're ripping them off, but didn't they accept it willingly?"The middle-aged man sounded more cynical and disdainful.Everyone in Dragon Kingdom knew a lot about fraud prevention, but the conmen were still able to make a living."How much did he borrow?"Willow asked after taking a deep breath."Ms. Quinn, read on."The middle-aged man smiled, showing two gold teeth.Willow flipped through the agreement and saw the amount on the next page.Up to thirty million dollars!The long string of zeros made Willow's eyes pop when she saw the Arabic numerals behind the words.Sea
Willow slowly turned her head and looked at Sean with a complicated look in her eyes.Far Ocean Loan Company was not some hoodlum company. It was a registered company.They would never mess around.Besides, why would they find Sean instead of someone else?Willow could not find a reason to trust Sean.Come to think of it. Sean had been spending generously. He even paid for a villa costing tens of millions of dollars in full without blinking an eye.The money from an unknown source made Willow think that Sean borrowed the money."Don't be so quick to refute, Mr. Lennon."Over the years, our company has met a lot of people who refused to pay their debt by denying that they borrowed it. "You can deny it, but the agreement has legal effect."Besides, since Far Ocean Loan Company dared to make the loan, we're not scared of people who refuse to pay their debt."Since we dared to release the money, we have ways to get it back."The middle-aged man had a cold smile on his face.T
Willow seemed dumbfounded.Far Ocean Loan Company led her by the nose.She could handle other things calmly.However, she could not keep her cool when it had something to do with Sean.She had forgotten her abilities and everything she had ever learned.She could not think straight right now."What do you mean by that?"Willow looked at the middle-aged man as she bit her lip slightly.On the other hand, Sean glared at the middle-aged man with cold eyes.He did not want to say anything now. He just wanted to pay the money and get them to leave Quinn Corporation before taking care of the rest. "Haha, it means..."Yesterday was the payment deadline. According to the contract..."If the loanee is late in payment, we have the right to take 60% of Quinn Corporation's shares as compensation."There was a sneer in the middle-aged man's eyes as he said this.Ripping off money from the Quinn family was not their ultimate goal."What?"Willow's eyes froze as she flipped through t
"Let me see who dares to bully Quinn Corporation!"A cold snort rang, and no less than twenty bodyguards in black entered the meeting room.Then a young man dressed in a high-end suit and wearing a Constantin watch stepped in.It was Quill!He entered imposingly with his men as if he was a hero to the rescue.Quill was also followed by some employees of Quinn Corporation's branch office.All the employees of Quinn Corporation were looking at Quill with anticipation.The look in their eyes was as if they had seen their savior.For some reason, even Willow felt relieved when she saw Quill.She had to admit that Quill's identity and the Zimmer family's status in River City brought her some security."Quill, what are you doing here?"As soon as Sean saw Quill, he realized something.He now strongly suspected that Quill might have arranged this."What am I doing here?"Am I just going to watch Willow get bullied if I don't come over?"Could a loser like you protect Willow?"
"Sean, go home."I'll stay in the office for a while."Willow slowly shook her head and said after staring at Sean for half a minute."Willow, I really have nothing to do with this."Sean felt helpless. He had never liked explaining much to others but could not help speaking to Willow anyway."Say nothing and leave me alone."Willow waved her hand slightly before even looking at Sean.Sean sighed to himself and clenched his fists.Willow did not believe him.Even after all he had done, Willow did not trust him at all.It made Sean feel helpless.He even could not help feeling disappointed.If Willow kept on doing this...Sean would consider whether it was necessary to do this anymore......After Sean had left.Soon, Willow's best friend Lexie rushed to Quinn Corporation."Willow, what's happened?"Lexie was supposed to go to the flea market with her friend.Then she immediately rushed over after getting a call from Willow."Lexie, you were a law major back then. I
"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
