"If she’s your friend, she will still treat you as a friend no matter what you become."Willow had always been protective of her best friend."But I, Sean Lennon, used to have a lot of friends too."After my downfall, weren’t you the only one who stayed by my side, taking care of me and never forsaking me?"Sean held out his hand slowly and fixed Willow's hair as he spoke."Never forsaking... Don't be ridiculous."I'm just helping you because you can't take care of yourself."Willow shook her head, shook Sean's hand away, and blushed.She thought the term "never forsaking" should be used in a romantic relationship, not her relationship with Sean."Didn't you agree to be my girlfriend?"What's the matter? Are you going back on your word after getting off the hot air balloon?"Sean deliberately teased Willow as he laughed."What... what I meant was that I'll think about it when you get back on your feet, okay?"Not now."Willow dried Sean's feet with her head down. Then she
Chapter 546
Sean remembered everything he owed Willow.A lavish proposal ceremony and a grand wedding were nothing.Sean knew these were not what Willow needed either.If Willow were a gold-digger, she would not have wasted two years of her life on Sean.Willow needed companionship too.Sean remembered what Willow said to him when he first regained consciousness.She envied other people's boyfriends shopping with their girlfriends.She just wanted someone to support her world and her family with her.She did not have many demands.However, it was a luxury before Sean could get up on his feet.However, now that Sean was about to recover, all the things Willow wanted were about to come true.Whether big or small, easy or simple, Sean would do it....The next day.Bennett Corporation headquarters.Shane and Jay were smoking cigarettes in their office with heavy dark circles under their eyes.They did not sleep well last night, tossing and turning.It was as if they were awaiting som

"Mr. Bennett, there are a dozen people downstairs."They are all representatives of our suppliers. They're asking for payment."The female secretary reported in a panic as she spoke."Oh? Is that so?"Shane sneered when he heard that.It seemed Sean had started!However, the same tactic again?He did the same thing last time. How could a cunning old fox like Shane not be prepared for this?"We haven't reached their payment deadline. What's the hurry?"I had someone tamper with the payment terms when we signed the contract."The payment won't be due until at least a month later."So there's nothing to worry about."Shane sneered and leaned back in his office chair as he waved his hand nonchalantly."Mr. Bennett, but the payment date on the contract is due..."The secretary shook her head slightly and said as she looked at Shane."What?"Shane froze instantly."That's impossible! I instructed Mr. Winston, who is in charge of signing the contract."Did he fail at his job

Shane slowly answered the call with a grim face."Could the Bennett family withstand this?"Sean's voice rang again on the phone."You! You!"Shane was so furious his blood boiled. His hands shook as he held the phone."I can withstand this!Shane clenched his hands and replied through clenched teeth."Very well."Sean hung up again without further ado.Bang!Shane was still not pleased after slamming the handset onto its base. He grabbed the base and ripped off the phone cable.He finally stopped after throwing the whole phone onto the ground and smashing it to pieces.He did not even want to take Sean's calls right now.Sean was like a god watching them make a fool of themselves from above.It made Shane angry and a little scared."Mr. Bennett, what do we do…"The female secretary asked again as she looked at Shane with trepidation in her eyes."Hmph!"Find Trusty Bank's Xavier Leeman."I have been friends with him for years. Ask him to lend us some money first."

"Ah! F*ck off! F*ck off!"Shane was speechless for a moment before jumping to his feet and yelling like a madman.Could you withstand this?Could the Bennett family still withstand this?That sentence was like a curse that Shane could not get rid of.In a fit of rage, Shane broke down, went around the desk, and kicked the security guard hard.He took his anger out on the security guard.However, the security guard, who normally would not even hold his head up in front of him, only snorted coldly and pushed Shane aside."You! How dare you lay a hand on me? I'm your boss!"Shane yelled as he glared at the security guard with wide eyes."Pay me my salary if you're my boss."What kind of boss are you if you delay our salary payment?"Try not paying us today!"The security guard, usually the lowest rank in the company, had released his pent-up feelings.It was not that they were hitting them when they were down. It was just that Shane's everyday behavior really made them resen

"Mr... Mr. Lennon, I can't take it anymore! I give up! I give up!"Tell us what you want. As long as you can spare the Bennett family, whatever you say goes."Shane gritted his teeth and started begging."If you can't withstand this, let it go."Someone from Reach For Will Group will come to you later to take over."Sean was about to hang up after he finished speaking.Shane finally realized that Sean was indeed involved with Reach For Will Group.What Sean meant was that he wanted the Bennett family's business to be acquired by Reach For Will Group!"Do you want to ruin us, Mr. Lennon?"Shane gritted his teeth slightly and shouted into the phone."Do you want me to ruin you?"Do you know Charles Christian?"Sean asked calmly with a faint smile.Shane froze. He had no idea why Sean had suddenly mentioned Charles.Charles was a famous gangster in River City. Anyone knew him."Yes, isn't he dead?"Shane asked into the phone with a slight frown."Do you know how he died?"
Chapter 551
The Quinn Residence was in dead silence. Everyone's eyes widened in shock.They all felt that they had heard it wrong and that they must be dreaming right now.No one spoke. Everyone’s head was buzzing.“Hsss!”After a while, Old Madam Quinn was the first to react and then took a breath.“What did you say?“Is this true?“The Bennett family went bankrupt?”Old Madam Quinn widened her eyes and asked Samuel.Samuel nodded, took a deep breath, and spoke to Old Madam Quinn.“Old Madam Quinn, it's absolutely true.“Mr. Bennett has personally held a press conference to officially declare bankruptcy.“And, he has also applied for bankruptcy protection. I think their capital chain should be seriously ruptured.”When the Quinn family heard this again, their hearts sank.Although the Bennett family's businesses were not as good as the Quinn family's, it was also a large enterprise with assets of ten million.They just went bankrupt now?“Sean Lennon! Was it really Sean who did
Chapter 552
“Old Madam Quinn, I think what we did before was a bit too extreme.“No matter what Sean did or said, or even some things we’ve seen with our own eyes, we still stubbornly refuse to believe him.“We all think that Sean definitely doesn't have the ability to handle things well, so we’re not willing to accept the fact that Sean is capable.“I think it's time for us to change our mindset?”When the middle-aged man said the words, the Quinn family went silent.Each of them knew in their hearts if it was so.“Hmm…“Even if what's happening in the Bennett family is really related to Sean, I don't think it proves anything.“Young Master Zimmer can easily do these things as well, so in my heart, the Zimmer family is more capable.”Samuel frowned and pondered for a few seconds. He still insisted on his own thought.However, no one refuted what he said.Even if Sean was somewhat capable, he was definitely not comparable to the Zimmer family.However, the middle-aged man, who was a br
