Chapter 21
The expression of everyone in the room changed when the middle-aged man said this.The senior executives looked at each other.The Quinn family looked ghastly pale.They deliberately excluded Willow so she could not take credit.Now, the representative from Larson Pharmaceuticals wanted to talk to Willow about the negotiation?This...Was this a joke?Simon and Faye looked at each other, feeling a little upset."Mr. Ziegler, Willow isn't in the office right now."And she's not in charge of negotiating about collaborations."We came over from the branch office when we heard Mr. Ziegler is coming here."So you can just talk to us about the collaboration."Simon pondered for two seconds before smiling and looking at the middle-aged man.Mr. Ziegler hesitated for two seconds.'Homer told me to help the Quinn family as much as possible, like what Sean instructed.''Sean didn't tell us to talk to anyone specific.''It's only Homer's idea to talk to Willow about it.''Since W

Simon spoke as he clicked the car key fob in his hand.Beep beep!A BMW lit up in the distance after unlocking."No, thank you."Willow stubbornly shook her head and got on her scooter."Hehe. Willow, just do whatever Grandma says and kick that cripple out of the Quinn family, and you'll make up with Grandma."My family got millions of dollars in dividends at the end of the year. You can get a car easily."Simon smiled playfully at Willow.Willow was practically a vegetable to him.If she had not insisted on keeping Sean in the Quinn family, would the Quinn family be the laughingstock of River City?It was why Old Madam Quinn held a grudge against Willow’s family.Willow's family could forget about the special treatment that the members of the Quinn family enjoy, let alone the dividends.At best, they would get a basic wage, so they would not starve."Willow, what the hell are you holding on for?"Wouldn't it be great to give up a burden for a better life?"Wouldn't it b

All the neighbors knew that Willow's family worked at River City's Quinn Corporation.However, few people knew that Willow and her family were members of the Quinn family.Old Madam Quinn said she did not want to be embarrassed.Therefore, she dissociated herself from them.Suddenly, a woman asked with a sneer."Oh yes, Willow. The young man who often visits you drives a nice car whenever he comes. It can't be his, can it?"Everyone knew that Willow was engaged to a vegetable.However, Quill came over almost every day.Gossip was inevitable around here."Not really."Willow knew these people were just trying to make fun of her, so she did not want to stay."You should be careful if it's not.""With such an amazing car parked in front of your house, you probably can't afford to pay if you scratch it.""Maybe you'll involve us in this if you don't admit your mistakes."The crowd sneered with a teasing note in their voices."It's a mere Ferrari. So what if you smash it?"A

Once again, Sean stepped in gallantly to defend her dignity.It was the kind of thing Willow had always wanted.She never thought it would become reality someday.Since Sean came to himself, these hopes had come true."Excuse me. You might not afford to pay if you ruin it."Sean slowly turned to look at the crowd of a dozen of people.They all looked at each other and obediently stepped to one side.In the presence of such an expensive car, they could not resist.What kind of society was this?They looked down on the poor, yet looked up to the rich no matter where their money came from!Even if Sean was a cripple, he was a cripple who drove a Ferrari!"Sean, let's go inside."Willow blushed a little and did not want to say much in front of the crowd."Alright."Sean chuckled and did not even look at the crowd.From beginning to end, he ignored these people.Willow wheeled Sean slowly into the yard and gently closed the gates."Was I dreaming? The Quinn family's vegetab

Fion immediately froze and slowly turned to look at Sean."Are you being silly again? What nonsense are you talking about?"Do you know how much that car is worth? Do you know how many wheelchairs that one wheel can buy you?"Sean, I'm telling you straight!"You can never drive a car like that!"So forget about going after something you're unworthy of."Fion said with her lips curled in disdain as she folded her arms.Clank.Sean did not bother to speak. He slowly reached for the car key on the desk before putting them back on the desk again.Everything was understood without uttering a word.Fion's eyes drifted to the car key.A black horse with a yellow background.The unique Ferrari logo was instantly visible.Fion instantly froze.'Did Sean actually take out the car key?''Is that multimillion-dollar Ferrari out front really his?'Fion's heart rate increased, and her mouth moved again and again.'What's going on here?''Could Sean really afford a multimillion-doll

"I'll do it myself, thank you."Sean's voice came from the room."... Okay!"Willow let out a sigh.She felt empty for no reason....Night.Sean did acupuncture on both legs before repeating it not long after.The interval was so short that the average person would never be able to withstand it.Even Sean had his share of pain.However, he was as eager to get on his feet.Therefore, he wanted to speed up the recovery process, even if it hurt."Whew!"Moments later, Sean put the silver needles away and let out a long breath.His whole body was wet with sweat."Two years without exercise really degrades one's health."Sean reached out and tapped his knee as he muttered to himself."Hmm..."Sean was about to take a break when he heard a strange noise.It sounded like a woman's voice. It sounded like a whisper and was very seductive.It sounded just like...It would make people blush.Thinking of Fion and her husband, Sean did not want to bother with it.However, it

"Where are you going?"Willow asked, and her face flushed even more.Sean shuddered.With years of experience on the battlefield, he was used to life and death and troubles.One could imagine how calm Sean was.Outsiders could not affect a solid rock that easily.However, he was nervous for no reason."I'm going to rest."Sean muttered in reply as he had his back on Willow."... What if... it hurts again?"Willow pressed her red lips together, not even noticing the coquetry in her voice."Then I'll come over again."You're on your period. Have a good rest."Sean slowly left the room after he finished."Hmm..."He's quite the gentleman."Willow mumbled to herself with an indescribable emotion on her face.After Sean left, Willow lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.The events of the last few days flashed through her head like a movie.Sean had surprised her since he recovered his mind.It had also brought some changes to Willow's life.Willow coul

He was a legend.The man was indomitably strong!He was what Rachel was after."Hsss!"Willow's eyes widened, and her face was full of shock.She could imagine how amazing the man was from what Rachel said."Now that you mention it, I'm a little curious..."Willow muttered to herself, her heart longing for the army as well.However, Fion would never let her join the army. She could only do whatever the Quinn family arranged for her."I would have had a chance to meet him..."But..."Rachel sighed and stopped at the mention of it."But what?"Willow immediately asked."But God envies talent!"Rachel said through clenched teeth, "Something happened to him. He has left the army and is nowhere to be found."A lot of people miss him, but we don't know where he is."He has been gone for two years."Rachel's voice was tinged with deep loss and sadness at the mention of it.Willow froze when she heard this.'Gone for two years?''Two years...'She suddenly remembered that
