At the gate.Two security guards were standing guard.Queen Children's Orphanage often received visits from kind people, who sometimes donated things.Therefore, the presence of strangers was not surprising.Sean took out his identification card for registration and entered the orphanage.Some children were playing in the yard.They were young. They looked like they were five or six years old.Their clothes were simple.Their clothes were clean even though they were not some luxury brands.Several kids grinned at Sean when they saw him coming.It brought a smile to Sean's face.Because that was how he was when he was a kid.Whenever strangers came, they brought them supplies.It was also their happiest time.The orphanage had expanded quite a bit.The office and dormitory areas looked well-furnished and even had air conditioning.Anyway, it looked a lot different from the run-down home Sean remembered.It was not easy to go from being a privately run orphanage to where

Even children cruelly abandoned by their biological parents were little angels to her.She could not provide them with the best living conditions but took good care of each child."What's the matter, young man? Why are you quiet?"May looked at Sean and asked with a frown.She did not recognize Sean after 13 years.He looked somewhat familiar, but she dared not guess wrongly if she knew him or not."Aunt May."Sean's nose felt sore as he stepped forward and plopped down on his knees.With Sean's status, not many people could have him kneel to them.He was the pride of the army, the god of war, and a nine-star commander.He only acknowledged Colin in the army.Outside, he had neither father nor mother, and no one could make him make such a grand gesture.However, he knelt to May willingly and without hesitation."Who... Who are you?"May froze when she heard Sean call her that.Only the kids from the orphanage would call her that.Did that mean Sean used to be a member o

"The phone number is no longer available..."We could get through at first. Then we couldn't..."May said, shaking her head slightly.When Colin had taken Sean, May was worried and would often call to ask if he was okay.Later, the Collins family told May that Sean had gone to war with Colin, and they never got in touch again.May thought Sean might have perished on the battlefield.It was why she was so excited after recognizing Sean."It's alright. I'll go find them."Sean smiled and closed the profile."Seanie, just go about your business."I'm glad to be able to see you."May helped Sean fold his collar and said with a smile."Okay! I'll come back to see you another day."Sean nodded gently. He had more important things to do right now."Okay!"May smiled and nodded as she prepared to see Sean out the door."Aunt May, look at this news."Mysterious tycoon bought Riverside Villa for close to 100 million dollars."It would be awesome if we could get him to help!"J

5 p.m.Sean finally arrived at the address.The Collins family had reached prominence more than a decade ago.Unexpectedly, they lived in a suburban area in Joules Town instead of downtown.No wonder a Joules Town resident like Jeffrey did not know much about the Collins family.You could only say that they had a low profile."This should be it."Sean mumbled to himself as he looked out the window at the scenery flashing by.After all, he had been here once.Besides, he could already remember things at the time.The Collins family never moved after more than a decade. They were still in the same place.A building slowly emerged before them in the distance.It looked like one of those estates.There were green lawns, magnificent vintage buildings, beautiful rocks, and pavilions.At first glance, it looked like the home of a lord of the Regency era.It seemed this was the home of the Collins family."Even though this area is remote, I'm afraid the value of such a large ho

Therefore, it was not surprising that they found the two names familiar.However, they would not expect a noble nine-star commander like Sean to come here alone and ask to see the Collins family.Because if the nine-star commander came, even William had to receive him in person."We'll see tomorrow."We'll see if Old Master Collins wants to see him."The two security guards slowly turned and returned to their posts.On the other side, Sean stepped into the car and let out a helpless sigh.As the saying went—"It's better to handle things yourself."There was truth in this saying.When Sean was at the top of his game, he could easily do many things with a casual lift of his hand.Never had he stooped so low to beg.However, he had no choice."Commander, how was it?"Zander and Jeffrey asked Sean."We'll see how it turns out tomorrow. Let's go home first."Sean waved his hand and spoke without giving much explanation."Yes!"Zander answered, started his car, and headed fo

Sean missed her after leaving for only two days.However, he should refrain from contacting her.Otherwise, not only would he reveal his whereabouts, but he could also put Willow in unnecessary trouble.Therefore, Sean put down his phone after hesitating for a moment....At the same time.Willow in River City was also holding her phone and looking at Sean's photo.She missed him, worried about him, and was sad.However, she was also afraid to contact Sean.According to her sources, someone had gone about River City these two days, and they were asking around for information about Sean.Those people even had the Quinn family on their radar.Willow was not sure whether they had been in contact with members of the Quinn family.Before he left, Sean told Willow that she only had to protect herself no matter what happened.Willow did not have to worry about the rest.Willow kept Sean's words in mind, so she did not contact the Quinn family.However, members of the Quinn fami

First of all, Jason's identity was well known, and he was a big shot.A big shot like that served as a driver for the people Simon mentioned.That meant those guys were more important than Jason.It was highly credible if that was true.It seemed Sean was wanted in the army!"No wonder he's so wealthy. It turns out he stole that money from the army."Old Madam Quinn said, and a chill flickered in the depth of her eyes.She despised Sean's behavior. Soldiers put their lives on the line to protect the country, yet Sean stole the funds that the higher-ups gave them to protect the people!How heartless!"I know, right?"He was so arrogant, but it turns out he's only faking it."I guess he ran away because he heard someone was after him."Why else would he be so anxious to leave without even saying goodbye?"Simon sneered. He was convinced that Sean was a wanted man.Old Madam Quinn nodded again.After all, Sean left in such a hurry that they did not even know when he left

"Grandma, what is there to wait for?"Simon curled his lips in grumbled in dissatisfaction."We've had a few fights with Sean many times over the years, but we've never been able to gain any advantage."Every time we think we're going to win, Sean comes up with a new strategy and turns things around."So I think things might not be as simple as we believe this time."After all, what those people say is only one side of the story. We can't believe them 200%."Old Madam Quinn pondered for a few seconds before speaking her mind."Grandma, they're soldiers! I've seen their credentials."Sean keeps saying he's some big shot. Why haven't I seen his credentials?"Do we have to think hard to find out who's lying?"Simon shook his head helplessly and said to Old Madam Quinn with a frown."So why did they talk to you instead of going after Reach For Will Group?"Old Madam Quinn picked up her coffee cup and said to Simon as she narrowed her eyes."They... don't want to act rashly and
