Then his palm clenched without hesitation.Crack!With a loud crack, Sean crushed Charles' throat with one hand."Uh..."Charles' eyes widened.Then blood poured out of his mouth.Thump!Sean's grip loosened, and Charles crumbled to the ground.His body twitched as his eyes widened.Blood gushed from his mouth.It soon went quiet.The men behind Charles widened their eyes in disbelief.Charles was worth tens of millions of dollars and had countless thugs.Charles, who had reigned over River City's underground forces for 20 years, was crushed to death by Sean with one hand?A mighty man had died at the hands of a cripple!It was unbelievable."He killed Mr. Charles. Avenge Mr. Charles!"Suddenly, a youth let out a roar and pounced straight at Sean.One took the lead, and the others followed suit.Forty people surrounded Sean."I, Sean Lennon, am undefeatable in battle. You guys are nothing."Sean snorted coldly and stretched out his hands.Two years ago, he had sin

After that voice rang...Thirty cars opened their doors.Burly men in black after another stepped out of the cars.They were all bulky, each carrying a five-foot steel pipe.A man in his 30s led the group. Holding an iron baseball bat, he seemed stronger.There were hundreds of them.In the darkness, these burly men in black were intensely menacing."Are you sure Charles is in there?"The youth at the front looked toward Excel Casino and patted a baseball bat in his hand."Yes! Our men got word that Charles is here to take care of someone today."So he's inside. It's confirmed."The person next to him immediately answered."Haha, take care of someone?"He just bullies ordinary people."Let's take care of him today, and we'll have the final say in River City's underworld."We'll be getting rid of a disaster for River City."The youth with a baseball bat swung it twice and headed straight for Excel Casino.A hundred strong men followed him.Their footsteps rang in uniso

Besides, he was now a businessman with money.With money and men, he had more power.However, a top-tier big shot like that was killed in his own territory.The youth with a baseball bat took a deep breath and asked with eyes wide open.'What's going on here?'"Who else in River City's underworld would take a shot at Charles but us?"No one answered.It was because no one else dared to do so.Their power had always been a rival to Charles'.The rest of the underworld were no match to them.There were no other small gangs that would dare to face Charles.Then who did it?The youth with a baseball bat pondered for a few seconds before they found the informant they set up at Charles' place to find out what had happened."What did you say? That cripple?"A cripple who single-handedly knocked over so many people and killed Charles on the spot?"The youth with a baseball bat widened his eyes with shock on his face.Seeing this informant nod, the shock the youth felt increased

"Go ahead."Sean nodded."It's just that... Quill booked the entire Riverleaf Lakeside Hotel..."He said he's making a grand confession to some girl..."Willow spoke slowly as she observed Sean's expression.She did not want to tell Sean about it, lest he felt bad.However, she felt that Sean deserved an explanation.Otherwise, Sean would find out about it sooner or later since he had been going out a lot lately.When that happened, Sean would probably only feel worse."He's not confessing to you, is he?"Sean looked up slowly and asked with a smile.He was not angry at all.Willow looked at Sean in confusion and asked, "Aren't... aren't you mad?"Sean shook his head slightly and asked, "Would lions care about worms?"Even though Quill was the heir of the Zimmer family of River City, he was still a worm to Sean.Willow only thought Sean was bluffing when she heard him say that."I don't want it..."But he has helped the Quinn family a lot. Grandma and the other is gonn

About ten or more fully suited men in black marched in with sunglasses on.They looked formidable and intimidating.After they had entered, they split themselves into two rows immediately, as if they were waiting to welcome a certain VIP.The government officer who was interrogating Sean Lennon frowned and barked.“Who are you?”“Hmph!”A huff was heard from outside the door.Immediately, a crisp clack sound of high heels walking on the ground was heard before anyone could be seen.An about-thirty-year-old lady walked in from the outside.She wore lots of jewelry and was donned in luxurious branded articles of clothing.Her style was also on the more provocative side as she sported a deep V top, looking extremely sexy.“Madam Yates? You’re here too?”The government officer asked.“Hah! My husband was cruelly murdered. Of course I’d want to see who the murderer is!”Joey Yates huffed coldly once more, arrogance evident on her face.Sean glanced at Joey and instantly under

“Cough, please be silent.“Sean Lennon, where were you from 11 pm to 12 am yesterday?”A middle-aged man asked Sean.“Excel Casino.”Sean answered truthfully.“What were you doing there?”The middle-aged man continued to ask without giving Sean any extra time to think.“I want more money to spend, so I was there to try my luck.”Sean answered so smoothly without an ounce of hesitation.“Excel Casino was closed yesterday. What luck were you trying, then?”The middle-aged man frowned as he asked once more.“That’s why I went back.”Sean was still answering nonchalantly.The middle-aged man frowned and looked intently at Sean for a few seconds.He was a little surprised at how calm Sean was.“Charles, the deceased was killed at the same time when you were at the casino.“You’re the biggest suspect right now.“How do you plan on explaining regarding this matter?”The middle-aged man frowned once more as he subtly turned on the recording device.“No explanation.”Sean wa

Once he saw who was the person that had just walked in, Hayden Luke frowned.This middle-aged man was the person in charge of the current government facility that they were in.All the staff there were also directly under his jurisdiction.There were some past grudges between Hayden and him, and that was why they were unfriendly towards each other.“I and you, Mr. Luke are not from the same area of jurisdiction.“For you to come all the way here, Mr. Luke, perhaps you’re sticking your nose into something that’s too far off from your own business now?“Or did you think you’re a part of the CIA, Mr. Luke?”The middle-aged man looked at Hayden and spoke softly.What he said made Hayden simmer with rage.However, he could not utter a single word in reply.There were indeed unpleasantries exchanged in between the two of them, and now that he was here at the other person’s area of jurisdiction, it was indeed him being too nosy!However, if he were to leave this matter be, would Se

A bad feeling suddenly arose in Mr. Schmidt’s heart.He was no fool, or he would not be at where he was in his career.There was absolutely no need for anyone from the CIA to be personally present in cases like these.For Damian Wool to be present right now, it must be for someone that was involved in the case, right?Following this thought, there were many thoughts that had flashed through his mind regarding Damian.Did Charles Christian know Damian?Or… Did Joey Yates know him?Was this why Damian Wool had come personally to see how this case was being handled?Mr. Schmidt’s mind was occupied with many questions he did not have the answer to.That being said, he had never once thought that it could be Sean Lennon that had any relation to Damian Wool.Sean was just a cripple. If he could be acquainted with a VVIP of Damian’s caliber, Mr. Schmidt swore that he would start writing his name backward from then on.Hayden Luke’s mind was filled with worries.If Damian was here
