"Calm the f*ck down?"

Jon slammed his phone to the ground.

Thud!

A new phone was once again smashed into pieces.

Jon shivered with anger, and blood gushed from his throat again.

"It must be Sean. It must be him again!"

Jon shuddered and slumped on the floor with a thump.

Quill and his mother stepped forward to help Jon, flustered.

"Dad, are... are we still escaping?"

Quill asked, slightly gritting his teeth and looking up.

"Escape? Where could we escape to?

"Escape abroad and starve to death?"

Jon was ghastly pale as he showed a bitter smile.

The Zimmer family was on the brink of annihilation.

No matter how aggressive Sean was earlier, he did not think he was defeated.

All it cost him was the Zimmer family's business in River City.

With money in hand, he could make a comeback somewhere else.

However, Sean had quietly transferred away the last of his life-saving funds.

Where could Jon, penniless and having hundreds of millions in debt, escape to?

Even if they could es

    He had nothing to explain.Defeated by Sean's tactics, he had nothing to say.No one would believe it even if he explained."There were sometimes problems with my strategy and planning."But rest assured, I will take responsibility for the money you've invested."Jon faced the crowd as he shouted."Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Zimmer has spoken."He said he would take responsibility for the money he borrowed in his name."The reporter repeated that Jon borrowed the money personally and not in the company's name.The idea had become ingrained in many people's minds."Mr. Zimmer, we're no strangers. We know each other."So cut the crap. We only came to you for money today."A middle-aged man with glasses said bluntly to Jon."That's right! Pay up!""Pay up, and everything will be fine."Everyone chimed in. Jon was not given a chance to defend himself.However, how could Jon come up with 300 million dollars?He did not even have 30 million dollars!However, no one would bel

    All day long, River City's business circle was bustling with activity.Jon, the patriarch of the Zimmer family of River City, had been definitively arrested for illegal fundraising.He had been taken away by the government, and his family was under surveillance.Their accounts were frozen. There was nothing they could do.It was a living h*ll for Quill's family, who had been accustomed to a life of privilege.No one would have thought that Zimmer Corporation, which had been thriving in recent years, would fall so low.They were still thriving yesterday, but they fell apart overnight.Sean shredded Zimmer Corporation's business blueprint.After all this planning and preparation, Sean never revealed his true plan and Jon never caught on.With Reach For Will Group in front of him, Jon paid all his attention to Reach For Will Group.Sean, whom he ignored and regarded as a loser in his mind, was overlooked when he did nothing...Once he attacked, he sent Jon straight to h*ll and

We'll only look at the present."Whoever Mr. Lennon was, he's now the Larson family's savior."He saved my life and the Larson family now. We must never forget his kindness."You should know what to do."Old Master Larson looked at Homer with sternness in his voice."Old Master, I see."Homer nodded heavily. Larson Pharmaceuticals would regard Sean as their leader from now on....A day passed.The impact of this event was getting bigger.Only a handful of companies were not affected.Reach For Will Group, Larson Pharmaceuticals, Flint's properties, and several other companies.All the other companies had their hands full.It included Quinn Corporation.Fortunately, Willow had left Quinn Corporation, so she was a bystander.However, Willow was still worried when Quinn Corporation was in crisis.The Quinn family was cruel to them and even kicked them out.However, it was Wil

    She still remembered what the Quinn family did to them.How could she forget it so easily?Besides, the Quinn family was not remorseful at all."You're just a woman. Stop talking."Kent snapped at Fion with a solemn face."Hmph! I want to speak."I know nothing, but I know not to show excessive kindness to someone indifferent."Did the Quinn family ask you for help? Or you just want to help them?"With one hand on her waist, Fion would not budge.Kent was speechless.Old Madam Quinn, Samuel, and the rest kicked them out of the Quinn family only to get rid of them once and for all.It was true that the Quinn family was in crisis, but they had not come to Kent for help.If they went back now, the Quinn family might think they returned to laugh at the Quinn family.Therefore, Kent shook his head, feeling helpless."You don't have to worry about these things."The Quinn family has chosen this path themselves. They can only learn through suffering."Sean shook his head sligh

    "Hmph!"Jon snorted coldly and turned his head to one side.He could not keep his cool when he faced Sean.The most humiliating thing in the world was when your enemy sat in front of you triumphantly.Jon was angry and regretful.He was regretful for not doing everything possible to get rid of Sean."I'm asking you here."Sean asked again, unfazed."Smug rat."Jon glared at Sean and cursed."Haha."Sean shook his head and sneered.'Smug rat?'What about Quill going to Willow's house every other day and courting her in front of Sean when Sean was in a wheelchair and catatonic?However, Sean would not discuss that with Jon.Jon did not deserve Sean to reason with him."Why are you laughing?"Do you think I don't know you bribed Jason?"We're even related to that ungrateful Jason."How dare he do this to me!"Jon gritted his teeth slightly in hatred at the mention of Jason.Sean was speechless when he heard this.How ungrateful.He only came to see Jon because Jason

    "He's gone too far! He's gone too far!"Is Sean forcing me to fight him to the death?"Jon's eyes were malice as he crunched his teeth.Quill was silent.They could not even fight Sean right now!Sean not only had complex connections in the government but also knew top bigwigs in the criminal underworld like Flint.Besides, the changes Zimmer Corporation experienced were vaguely related to Reach For Will Group.Sean had taken over the underworld, political world, and business world.What were they going to fight Sean with?"Didn't Felix have a beef with Sean? Why hasn't he done anything to him?"What is he waiting for? Contact him and tell him I can help him!"Jon jerked his head around and looked at Quill as he spoke.However, Quill shook his head in resignation when he heard that.He had contacted many people today.None of the rich heirs, who called him their brother and often hung out with him at nightclubs, answered his phone call.What happened to the Zimmer family

    Indeed.He had given Jason many things, including a lot of cash.However, except for a box of tea leaves, everything else was returned intact.Jason was not like that."Then why did you help him if you didn't take any money? What are you after?"What is it about him that you would help him?"Jon questioned Jason, frowning."He protects his country. He ensures Dragon Kingdom is prosperous and peaceful. He is a hero!"And he did me a great favor."Jason said without hesitation.However, Jon only sneered."I know he was in the army, but so what?"It's all excuses."I'm a little curious about his identity."Jon sneered and said to Jason."I cannot and dare not talk about his identity."Jason shook his head slightly. His identity as a nine-star commander is a five-star secret.No one would casually tell outsiders about it."Why so secretive? Is he a god?"Jon sneered even more."He is a god!"To Jon's surprise, Jason answered earnestly.He was the god of war. It was no

    Everyone felt complicated.They now thought that Sean could predict the future.Nothing could surprise him.It was as if everything was within his plans."Sean, I think Grandma and the rest are here..."Willow looked at Sean and muttered.It was Sean's house.It was up to Sean to let the Quinn family in."Willow, what do you think?"Sean slowly turned his head to look at Willow.As he had said, the Quinn family meant nothing to him.Therefore, he did not care whether the Quinn family apologized to him.What mattered most was Willow.Willow was a member of the Quinn family, but they excluded her from everything. They even did everything they could to kick Willow out of the Quinn family.Therefore, it depended on Willow to give the Quinn family a chance."Why don't we let them in..."Willow thought for a few seconds, glanced at Kent again, and nodded."Yes! Yes!"Kent immediately nodded and got up to welcome them.Leah also spoke to the security guard on the intercom.

    "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
